JUDGMENT ORDER BY ALLEN, J.:                 FILED DECEMBER 17, 2014

     Tahir Usman Mir (“Appellant”) has appealed, and challenges the

legality of his sentence pursuant to Alleyne v. United States, 133 S.Ct.

2151 (2013). Appellant requests that his judgment of sentence be vacated

and the case be remanded for a new sentencing hearing. Appellant’s Brief

at 54; Appellant’s Reply Brief at 9.    The sentencing court “agrees with

[Appellant] that the sentence imposed is an illegal sentence pursuant to

Alleyne and Munday.”      Trial Court Opinion, 4/22/14.   In addition, the

Commonwealth, citing Alleyne and Commonwealth v. Munday, 78 A.3d

661 (Pa. Super. 2014), “is of the opinion that the Appellant is entitled to

relief in the form of re-sentencing.”   Commonwealth Correspondence to

Superior Court, 11/10/14.     Given the foregoing, we vacate Appellant’s

judgment of sentence and remand for re-sentencing.
