JERMAINE HENDERSON :
:
Appellant : No. 1794 EDA 2018
Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence Entered June 18, 2013
In the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County Criminal Division at
No(s): CP-51-CR-0012686-2011,
CP-51-CR-0012688-2011
BEFORE: PANELLA, P.J., GANTMAN, P.J.E., and PELLEGRINI*, J.
DISSENTING MEMORANDUM BY PELLEGRINI, J.: FILED JUNE 03, 2019
I would not quash the appeal for reasons set forth in my dissenting
opinion in Matter of M.P., 204 A.3d 976 (Pa. Super. Ct. 2019). For those
reasons, I would hold that the requirement in Commonwealth v. Walker,
185 A.3d 969, 971 (Pa. 2018), that holds that separate notices of appeal be
filed for each case sought to be appealed, only becomes effective when the
Appellate Procedural Rules Committee complies the direction given to it by our
Supreme Court to either amend Pa.R.A.P. 341(a) or its Official Note to
explicitly require separate notices of appeal. Accordingly, I respectfully
dissent.
