    PER CURIAM
   PER CURIAM

Defendant appeals his convictions of murder and of tampering with a witness. He assigns five errors, only one of which requires our attention.

Defendant contends, and the state concedes, that the trial court erred in imposing a mandatory minimum of 15 years on his life sentence for murder. State v. Macy, 295 Or 738, 671 P2d 92 (1983).

The portion of the sentence imposing a 15-year minimum on the life sentence for the murder conviction is vacated; otherwise affirmed.
