             Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence April 12, 2013,
                     Court of Common Pleas, Blair County,
              Criminal Division at No(s): CP-07-CR-0000667-2012
                         and CP-07-CR-0002674-2011

BEFORE: DONOHUE, OLSON and PLATT*, JJ.

JUDGMENT ORDER BY DONOHUE, J.:                      FILED AUGUST 22, 2014

        Jerma

entered following his convictions of numerous counts of possession with

intent to deliver, criminal use of a communication facility, dealing in unlawful

proceeds and corrupt organizations.1       On April 12, 2013, Samuel was

sentenced to an aggregate sentence of 46½ to 103 years of incarceration.

On April 22, 2013, Samuel filed a timely post-sentence motion.         The trial

                                     -sentence motion within 120 days of the

date it was filed, and so it was effectively denied by operation of law. See

    35 P.S. § 780-113(a)(30); 18 Pa.C.S.A. §§ 7512(a), 5111, 911(b)(3).

Pa.R.Crim.P. 720(B)(3)(a). The docket reveals, however, that no order was

                                    -sentence motion.2

                                                                 judgment of

            Commonwealth v. Patterson, 940 A.2d 493, 497 (Pa. Super.

2007). When timely post-sentence motions have been filed, the judgment

of sentence is made final when an order is entered disposing of the post-

sentence motions.   Commonwealth v. Kuykendall, 2 A.3d 559, 560 n.1

(Pa. Super. 2010). Accordingly, we remand this matter to the trial court for

the entry of an order nunc pro tunc                         -sentence motion

as a matter of law pursuant to Pa.R.Crim.P. 720(B)(3)(a) within 10 days of

the date of this judgment order. The trial court shall then transmit the order

and updated docket sheet reflecting its entry to this Court so that we may

proceed with the appeal.

      Case remanded. Jurisdiction retained.




2
  Samuel avers in his notice of appeal that an order was entered on August
20, 2013 denying his post-sentence motions as a matter of law. There is no
notation of such an order on the docket. Further, we have conducted a
thorough review of the record and have found no such order contained
therein.
