O R D E R 
 
 
This 16th day of July 2013, after careful consideration of the opening brief, 
the motion to affirm, and the record on appeal, we find it manifest that the 
judgment below should be affirmed on the basis of the Superior Court=s decision, 
dated April 16, 2013, dismissing appellant’s fourth, untimely and repetitive motion 
for postconviction relief. The Superior Court did not err in concluding that 
appellant had failed to assert a colorable claim of a miscarriage of justice sufficient 
to overcome the procedural hurdles. 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that the judgment of the Superior 
Court is AFFIRMED.
