Justice THOMAS delivered the opinion of the court:

The defendant, Leroy Orange, appeals from an order of the circuit court of Cook County dismissing, without an evidentiary hearing, his second post-conviction petition. Because the defendant was sentenced to death for the underlying murder convictions, he appeals directly to this court. 134 Ill.2d R. 651(a). We now affirm the judgment of the circuit court.
