ORDER ON REVISION

1.  I have examined the trial court record.

3. Despite the Coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis in our country today, I do not consider this to be a suitable case for interference by this court with the sentence in exercise of its revisionary powers.

4. The request for revision is therefore dismissed.  It is so ordered.
