PER CURIAM.

Defendant appeals from the trial court's denial of his motion for postconviction relief as untimely. Pursuant to Wood v. State, 750 So.2d 592 (Fla. 1999), the petition was timely filed, and should not have been dismissed. Accordingly, we reverse and remand for consideration on the merits.
