The per curiam opinion provides no reasoning or discussion of the issues presented. Chief Judge Lucas and Judges Silberman and Morris concurred.

Why It Matters

The decision resolves Wright’s appeal in the State’s favor, but its one-word disposition offers no substantive analysis for attorneys assessing other cases.
