OPINION

2Per curiam

This matter came before the Court for oral argument on January 27, 2000, pursuant to an order directing the parties to appear and show cause why the issues raised by the defendant’s appeal from a Superior Court justice’s denial of his motion to reduce sentence filed, pursuant to Rule 35 of the Superior Court Rules of Criminal Procedure should not be summarily decided.

After hearing the arguments of counsel and considering the memoranda submitted by both of the parties, we are of the opinion that cause has not been shown. The issues raised in the appeal will be decided at this time.
