O R D E R 
 
This 19th day of January 2005, after careful consideration of the parties’ 
briefs and the record below, we find it manifest that the judgment of the Superior 
Court should be affirmed on the basis of the Superior Court=s well-reasoned 
decision dated June 29, 2004.  The Superior Court did not err in concluding that 
Gibson’s motion for postconviction relief was time-barred and that Gibson had 
failed to overcome this procedural hurdle.  
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Superior 
Court is AFFIRMED.
