OPINION

Justice SUTTELL,

for the Court.

The defendant, David LaRoche, appeals from a Superior Court order denying his motion to correct an illegal sentence. The sentence at issue was imposed after he pled nolo contendere to a charge of perjury. The defendant challenges the court’s authority to condition his sentence upon a consent order concerning the payment of a previously established restitution obligation. Perceiving no merit in the defendant’s contentions, we affirm the order of the Superior Court and thereby affirm the sentence.
