DEL SOLE, Judge:

Joseph James Donnelly appeals from the judgment of sentence entered May 17,1994 following a guilty verdict by a jury for murder in the first degree. 18 Pa.C.S.A. § 2502(a). Since the jurors were deadlocked with regard to the penalty phase of the proceedings, the trial court discharged the jury and imposed a sentence of life imprisonment. This timely appeal was filed. We affirm.
