PER CURIAM

Tyrone Tillman pled guilty to murder in the second degree, robbery, and felony-firearms possession and was sentenced to 240 months' imprisonment. Subsequently, appellant filed a timely petition for postconviction relief in the trial court to set aside the verdict pursuant to Act 1780 of 2001. The trial court denied that motion, and appellant brings this appeal.

Appellant tendered his brief on July 28, 2005. We grant appellant's motion and direct our clerk to file appellant's tendered brief on the date of this opinion.

Motion granted.
