ON CONFESSION OF ERROR

PER CURIAM.

The State in its response to this Court concedes that the trial court erred in summarily denying appellant's motion for postconviction relief as untimely. The motion was timely filed. Ross v. State, 947 So.2d 699, 701 (Fla. 4th DCA 2007); Pierce v. State, 875 So.2d 726 (Fla. 4th DCA 2004) (following Snipes v. State, 843 So.2d 1043 (Fla. 2d DCA 2003)). Accordingly, we reverse and remand for consideration of the motion on the merits. TAYLOR, MAY and FORST, JJ., concur.
