Santiago, 978 A.2d 349 (Pa. 2009).
J-S38030-20
The trial court accurately summarized the facts as follows:
In the early hours of November 26, 2019, Sara Luckenbaugh
was thrown from her bed by a strange bedfellow, a car,
belonging to and driven by Justin Albertson. At
approximately 2:30 A.M., neighbors heard squealing tires,
a loud bang, and breaking glass. Justin Albertson had driven
his car into the home of Sara Luckenbaugh.
One of the first people on the scene of the accident was
Robert Austera, a neighbor. Prior to the accident, Austera
heard a vehicle squeal its tires, followed by a loud bang and
the sound of breaking glass. When Austera arrived at the
house, Albertson was still in the vehicle and was attempting
to back out of the house. Once Albertson was removed from
the vehicle, Austera noted that Albertson’s eyes were glassy
and his speech was slurred.
Shortly thereafter, Officers Kesselring and Knepp of
Hanover Borough Police Department arrived at the scene of
the accident at the intersection of Pleasant Street and
McAllister Street in Hanover. Officer Knepp arrived at the
scene after being dispatched. Upon arriving, he observed a
vehicle up on the curb and in the front of the house. Officer
Knepp spoke to Sara Luckenbaugh and he observed that she
seemed to be in shock.
Officer Kesselring first heard a crash and then was
subsequently dispatched to the Pleasant and McAllister
Street location. During his initial conversation with
Albertson, Officer Kesselring observed a strong odor of
alcohol coming from Albertson’s breath and person. He also
observed that Albertson’s speech was slurred, and his eyes
were glassy and bloodshot. When Officer Kesselring asked
Albertson about the accident, Albertson was unable to
articulate what had happened.
Officer Kesselring had Albertson perform field sobriety tests.
Albertson performed the walk and turn test. During the walk
and turn test Officer Kesselring noticed severe signs of
intoxication and impairment including Albertson falling off
the line twice and spinning around rather than turning.
Albertson also performed the one leg stand test. Officer
Kesselring also observed signs of impairment during the one
-2-
J-S38030-20
leg stand test such as swaying, additionally, Albertson put
his foot down numerous times and at one point almost fell
over. Officer Kesselring was wearing a body camera at the
time he administered the field sobriety tests; this video was
shown to the jury.
At the conclusion of the field sobriety tests, Officer
Kesselring placed Albertson under arrest for suspicion of
driving under the influence of alcohol and controlled
substance and he was transported to UPMC Hanover
Hospital for a blood draw. Officer Kesselring notified
Albertson of his right of refusal and read him the PennDOT
DL-26 form. At that time, Albertson refused the test and
began calling Officer Kesselring names and insulting him.
Albertson also refused treatment for any potential injuries.
As a result of Albertson’s refusal he was transported back to
Hanover Borough Police Department.
Once back at Hanover Borough Police Department,
Albertson refused to get out of the police car. After
Albertson’s initial refusal, Officer Kesselring prepared and
obtained a search warrant to obtain a blood draw. When
Officer Kesselring notified Albertson of the search warrant
he became combative and threatened to assault Officer
Kesselring. Because of Albertson’s behaviors, Officer
Kesselring feared for his safety or the safety of other
officers. Albertson did not comply with the search warrant
and would not submit to the blood draw.
Trial Court Opinion, filed 4/17/20, at 1-4 (citations to the trial transcript
omitted).
A jury found Albertson guilty of DUI, Obstructing the Administration of
Law or Other Governmental Function, and REAP. The trial court, sitting as
factfinder, found Albertson guilty of Duties at a Stop Sign and Reckless
Driving. The court sentenced Albertson to nine months to five years in prison.
After the trial court denied Albertson’s post-sentence motion, this timely
appeal followed. Albertson’s counsel filed a court-ordered Pa.R.A.P. 1925(b)
-3-
J-S38030-20
statement in the trial court, and then submitted an Anders brief and petition
to withdraw in this Court.
Counsel’s Anders brief identifies six issues:
1. Whether the evidence . . . was insufficient to sustain Mr.
Albertson’s conviction for Driving Under the Influence,
General Impairment[?]
2. Whether the evidence was insufficient to sustain Mr.
Albertson’s conviction of Obstructing Administration of
Law or Other Governmental Function[?]
3. Whether the evidence was insufficient to sustain Mr.
Albertson’s conviction of Recklessly Endangering Another
Person[?]
4. Whether the evidence was insufficient to sustain Mr.
Albertson’s conviction for Duties at a Stop Sign[?]
5. Whether the evidence was insufficient to sustain Mr.
Albertson’s conviction for Reckless Driving[?]
6. Whether the weight of the evidence was against the
verdict on all counts[?]
Anders Br. at 5.
Before reviewing the merits of this appeal, we must first determine
whether counsel has satisfied the necessary requirements for withdrawing as
counsel. See Commonwealth v. Goodwin, 928 A.2d 287, 290 (Pa.Super.
2007) (en banc) (stating that “[w]hen faced with a purported Anders brief,
this Court may not review the merits of any possible underlying issues without
first examining counsel’s request to withdraw”). In order to withdraw pursuant
to Anders, counsel must: 1) petition the court for leave to withdraw stating
that, after a conscientious examination of the record, counsel has determined
-4-
J-S38030-20
that the appeal would be frivolous; 2) furnish a copy of the brief to the client;
and 3) advise the client that he or she has the right to retain other counsel or
proceed pro se. Commonwealth v. Cartrette, 83 A.3d 1030, 1032
(Pa.Super. 2013) (en banc).
Further, in the Anders brief, counsel seeking to withdraw must:
(1) provide a summary of the procedural history and facts,
with citations to the record; (2) refer to anything in the
record that counsel believes arguably supports the appeal;
(3) set forth counsel’s conclusion that the appeal is
frivolous; and (4) state counsel’s reasons for concluding that
the appeal is frivolous. Counsel should articulate the
relevant facts of record, controlling case law, and/or
statutes on point that have led to the conclusion that the
appeal is frivolous.
Commonwealth v. Santiago, 978 A.2d 349, 361 (Pa. 2009). If counsel
meets all of the above obligations, “it then becomes the responsibility of the
reviewing court to make a full examination of the proceedings and make an
independent judgment to decide whether the appeal is in fact wholly
frivolous.” Id. at 355 n.5 (quoting Commonwealth v. McClendon, 434 A.2d
1185, 1187 (Pa. 1981)).
Instantly, we find that counsel has complied with all of the above
technical requirements. In her Anders brief, counsel has provided a summary
of the procedural and factual history of the case with citations to the record.
Further, counsel’s brief identifies six issues that could arguably support the
appeal, as well as counsel’s assessment of why the appeal is frivolous, with
citations to the record. Additionally, counsel served Albertson with a copy of
-5-
J-S38030-20
the Anders brief and advised him of his right to proceed pro se or to retain a
private attorney to raise any additional points he deemed worthy of this
Court’s review. Petition to Withdraw, 6/8/20, at ¶ 5. Albertson has not
responded to counsel’s petition to withdraw. As counsel has met the technical
requirements of Anders and Santiago, we will proceed to the issues counsel
has identified.
The first five issues presented in counsel’s Anders brief challenge the
sufficiency of the evidence. When reviewing such a challenge, our standard of
review is de novo, while “our scope of review is limited to considering the
evidence of record, and all reasonable inferences arising therefrom, viewed in
the light most favorable to the Commonwealth as the verdict winner.”
Commonwealth v. Rushing, 99 A.3d 416, 420-421 (Pa. 2014). “Evidence
will be deemed sufficient to support the verdict when it establishes each
material element of the crime charged and the commission thereof by the
accused, beyond a reasonable doubt.” Commonwealth v. Widmer, 744 A.2d
745, 751 (Pa. 2000). The Commonwealth may sustain its burden by means of
wholly circumstantial evidence. Commonwealth v. Dix, 207 A.3d 383, 390
(Pa.Super. 2019). Further, the trier of fact is free to believe, all, part, or none
of the evidence presented when making credibility determinations.
Commonwealth v. Beasley, 138 A.3d 39, 45 (Pa.Super. 2016). “[T]his
Court may not substitute its judgment for that of the factfinder, and where
the record contains support for the convictions, they may not be disturbed.”
Commonwealth v. Smith, 146 A.3d 257, 261 (Pa.Super. 2016).
-6-
J-S38030-20
The first issue contends the trial evidence was insufficient to support his
conviction for DUI because the Commonwealth failed to prove that Albertson
was incapable of safely driving due to the consumption of alcohol. Section
3802(a)(1) of the Vehicle Code provides that “[a]n individual may not drive,
operate or be in actual physical control of the movement of a vehicle after
imbibing a sufficient amount of alcohol such that the individual is rendered
incapable of safely driving, operating or being in actual physical control of the
movement of the vehicle.” 75 Pa.C.S.A. § 3802(a)(1). Accordingly, “the
Commonwealth must show: (1) that the defendant was the operator of a
motor vehicle and (2) that while operating the vehicle, the defendant was
under the influence of alcohol to such a degree as to render him or her
incapable of safe driving.” Commonwealth v. Smith, 831 A.2d 636, 638
(Pa.Super. 2003) (citation omitted). “To establish the second element, it must
be shown that alcohol has substantially impaired the normal mental and
physical faculties required to safely operate the vehicle.” Commonwealth v.
Palmer, 751 A.2d 223, 228 (Pa.Super. 2000).
The types of evidence that the Commonwealth may proffer in a
subsection 3802(a)(1) prosecution include but are not limited to,
the following: the offender’s actions and behavior, including
manner of driving and ability to pass field sobriety tests;
demeanor, including toward the investigating officer; physical
appearance, particularly bloodshot eyes and other physical signs
of intoxication; odor of alcohol, and slurred speech.
Commonwealth v. Segida, 985 A.2d 871, 879 (Pa. 2009). Further,
“[e]vidence that the driver was not in control of himself, such as failing to
-7-
J-S38030-20
pass a field sobriety test, may establish that the driver was under the influence
of alcohol to a degree which rendered him incapable of safe driving,
notwithstanding the absence of evidence of erratic or unsafe driving.” Palmer,
751 A.2d at 228.
In its Pa.R.A.P. 1925(a) opinion, the trial court addressed Albertson’s
DUI sufficiency claim as follows:
At trial, Officer Kesselring testified to Albertson’s physical
appearance. Officer Kesselring noted that immediately upon
interacting with Albertson he could smell the odor of alcohol
emanating from his person. He also noted Albertson’s
bloodshot eyes. When Officer Kesselring administered the
walk and turn test and the one leg stand test, Albertson
exhibited many signs of intoxication, including not being
able to turn correctly and having to put his foot down and
nearly falling over. The jury was able to view video evidence
of this as Officer Kesselring was wearing a body camera.
Additionally, when Officer Kesselring brought Albertson to
booking he became extremely aggressive and threatened
and insulted Officer Kesselring. Most obvious of all, Justin
Albertson drove his vehicle into a house. When Officer
Kesselring asked Albertson about the accident, he was
unable to articulate what happened.
Trial Ct. Op. at 10.
The record supports the trial court’s analysis of this issue. The trial
testimony established the requisite evidence of intoxication necessary for the
jury as factfinder to conclude that Albertson was unable to drive safely at the
time he crashed his vehicle into Sara Luckenbaugh’s house.
Albertson’s Pa.R.A.P. 1925(b) statement concedes that Officer
Kesselring determined that he failed the standard field sobriety tests, but
contends that Officer Kesselring failed to ask Albertson if he had sustained any
-8-
J-S38030-20
injuries due to the accident or had any pre-existing medical conditions that
might have hindered his ability to complete the standard field sobriety tests
as instructed. Albertson’s Rule 1925(b) Statement at 2. However, this
argument erroneously suggests that the Commonwealth had the burden of
proof on this issue. See Commonwealth v. Collins, 810 A.2d 698, 701
(Pa.Super. 2002) (concluding that “when a defense is asserted that relates to
the defendant’s mental state or information that is peculiarly within the
defendant’s own knowledge and control, the general rule is that the defendant
has the burden of proving the defense by a preponderance of the evidence”).
Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the Commonwealth as the
verdict winner, there is no reasonable argument that sufficient evidence did
not support Albertson’s DUI conviction.
The next issue challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support the
conviction for Obstructing the Administration of Law or Other Governmental
Function. According to the Rule 1925(b) statement, Albertson “never indicated
he would not comply with the search warrant nor did his actions indicate his
intent was to prevent his blood from being drawn.” Albertson’s Rule 1925(b)
Statement at 3. He allegedly did not engage in any sort of “affirmative
interference” that would have impeded Officer Kesselring from obtaining his
blood since he did not become physical with Officer Kesselring or engage in
any on-going or persistent conduct. Id.The offense of Obstructing the Administration of Law or Other
Governmental Function is defined as follows:
-9-
J-S38030-20
A person commits a misdemeanor of the second degree if
he intentionally obstructs, impairs or perverts the
administration of law or other governmental function by
force, violence, physical interference or obstacle, breach of
official duty, or any other unlawful act, except that this
section does not apply to flight by a person charged with
crime, refusal to submit to arrest, failure to perform a legal
duty other than an official duty, or any other means of
avoiding compliance with law without affirmative
interference with governmental functions.
18 Pa.C.S.A. § 5101. “Thus, the crime consists of two elements: 1) an intent
to obstruct the administration of law; and 2) an act of ‘affirmative interference
with governmental functions.’” Commonwealth v. Palchanes, 224 A.3d 58,
60 (Pa.Super. 2019) (quoting Commonwealth v. Gentile, 640 A.2d 1309,
1312 (Pa.Super. 1994)). The statute was “designed to cover a broad range of
behavior that impedes or defeats the operation of government.” Id. (quoting
Model Penal Code § 242.1, Explanatory Note).
Instantly, the record belies the assertion that Albertson never indicated
he would not comply with the search warrant for a blood draw. The testimony
was clear that after Albertson was arrested, he was transported to the hospital
where he refused a blood test and began calling Officer Kesselring names and
insulting him. As a result of Albertson’s refusal to take a blood test, he was
taken back to the police station, where he refused to get out of the police car.
Consequently, Officer Kesselring prepared and obtained a search warrant to
obtain a blood draw. Despite being presented with a valid search warrant by
a police officer, Albertson became combative and threatened to physically
assault Officer Kesselring. Officer Kesselring testified that Albertson walked
- 10 -
J-S38030-20
towards him with his arms clenched and fists down while making these verbal
threats and that he feared for his safety or the safety of other officers. N.T.,
11/19/19, at 112-113.
Ultimately, Albertson refused to comply with the warrant and would not
allow a blood draw to take place, thus impeding Officer Kesselring’s
investigation of the DUI case. The contention that Albertson did not become
physical with Officer Kesselring lacks any basis in the record since the
interference necessary to sustain a conviction for Obstructing the
Administration of Law or Other Governmental Function “need not involve
physical contact with the government official as he performs his duties.”
Palchanes, 224 A.3d at 60 (citation omitted). Therefore, Albertson’s
intentional actions in being combative with law enforcement and refusing to
allow a blood draw to occur interfered with the administration of law. There is
no reasonable argument that the evidence was not sufficient to support
Albertson’s conviction for this offense.
The third issue challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to sustain
Albertson’s conviction for REAP. The evidence was allegedly insufficient to
prove that he recklessly engaged in conduct that might have placed Ms.
Luckenbaugh in danger of death or serious bodily injury. Albertson’s Rule
1925(b) Statement at 3-4. This is allegedly so because “there was no evidence
presented regarding the manner in which [he] drove to indicate it was done
in a reckless manner or that it involved a gross deviation from the standard
of conduct that a reasonable person would observe.” Id. at 4.
- 11 -
J-S38030-20
A person commits REAP “if he recklessly engages in conduct which
places or may place another person in danger of death or serious bodily
injury.” 18 Pa.C.S.A. § 2705. Therefore, in order to sustain a conviction for
REAP, “the Commonwealth must prove that the defendant (1) possessed a
mens rea [of] recklessness, (2) committed a wrongful deed or guilty act (actus
reus), and (3) created by such wrongful deed the danger of death or serious
bodily injury to another person.” Commonwealth v. Bostian, 232 A.3d 898,
909 (Pa.Super. 2020) (citation and internal quotation marks omitted). “The
reckless mental state required for a REAP conviction has been defined as a
conscious disregard of a known risk of death or great bodily harm to another
person.” Id. (citation and internal quotation marks omitted). “[D]riving under
the influence of intoxicating substances does not create legal recklessness per
se but must be accompanied with other tangible indicia of unsafe driving to a
degree that creates a substantial risk of injury which is consciously
disregarded.” Commonwealth v. Hutchins, 42 A.3d 302, 311 (Pa.Super.
2012) (quoting Commonwealth v. Mastromatteo, 719 A.2d 1081, 1083
(Pa.Super. 1998)).
Here, although there was no eyewitness testimony of Albertson’s driving
before the accident, there was testimony from Mr. Austera, the neighbor, that
he heard a vehicle rev its engine and squeal its tires right before the crash.
N.T., 11/19/19, at 87. The evidence further indicated that Albertson drove his
car into Ms. Luckenbaugh’s house, the impact of which was so great that it
caused the house to split into two sides and tossed Ms. Luckenbaugh off her
- 12 -
J-S38030-20
bed and onto the floor. Id. at 80-81, 128. It is clear that Albertson’s conduct
placed Ms. Luckenbaugh “in danger of death or serious bodily injury.” See 18
Pa.C.S.A. § 2705. While it is true that driving under the influence alone cannot
establish the element of recklessness for REAP, the evidence admitted at his
trial included “other tangible indicia of unsafe driving to a degree that creates
a substantial risk of injury which is consciously disregarded[,]” Hutchins, 42
A.3d at 311, therefore establishing the mens rea of recklessness for REAP. As
such, the third claim lacks any reasonable basis in the record.
The next issue challenges the evidence supporting the conviction for
Duties at a Stop Sign. The claim is that there was no testimony that Albertson
failed to stop at a stop sign. Albertson’s Rule 1925(b) Statement at 4-5.
The offense of Duties at a Stop Sign requires “every driver of a vehicle
approaching a stop sign” to “stop at a clearly marked stop line[.]” 75 Pa.C.S.A.
§ 3323(b). Although there were no eyewitnesses who saw Albertson run the
stop sign, there was circumstantial evidence that he failed to stop. The
Commonwealth presented photographs showing that Ms. Luckenbaugh’s
house was located on the corner of an intersection with a stop sign in close
proximity to her residence. N.T., 11/19/19, at 71-74; Commonwealth’s Exhibit
2. The photographs also showed Albertson’s car lodged into the house, as well
as significant damage to the residence. N.T., 11/19/19, at 79-80;
Commonwealth’s Exhibits 9, 10. Another photograph showed a street sign that
had been planted in the sidewalk in front of Ms. Luckenbaugh’s residence that
had been knocked over due to the impact of the crash. N.T., 11/19/19, at 79-
- 13 -
J-S38030-20
80; Commonwealth’s Exhibit 9. There was also evidence of skid marks in the
roadway. N.T., 11/19/19, at 74. Albertson’s neighbor, Mr. Austera, also
testified that he heard a vehicle “start up and begin revving its engine, and
said vehicle took off down the road and came back a couple minutes later and
began to squeal its tires, and ultimately I heard a loud bang and a bunch of
glass breaking and a bunch of noises.” Id. at 87. As the trial court aptly noted,
“[a]t no point did Austera testify that he heard [Albertson’s] vehicle breaking.”
Trial Ct. Op. at 17. The sufficiency challenge to the conviction for Duties at a
Stop Sign lacks a reasonable basis in fact or law.
The fifth issue is that the evidence was insufficient to sustain his
conviction for Reckless Driving because there was allegedly no evidence
regarding the manner in which he drove. Albertson’s Rule 1925(b) Statement
at 5.
A person is guilty of Reckless Driving if he or she “drives any vehicle in
willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property[.]” 75
Pa.C.S.A. § 3736(a).
Here, in finding that the evidence was sufficient to support Albertson’s
conviction for Reckless Driving, the trial court stated:
While the evidence to support this charge is entirely
circumstantial, the Commonwealth has proven beyond a
reasonable doubt that [Albertson] drove in such a manner
that there existed a substantial risk that injury would result
from his driving. First, the testimony of Mr. Austera was that
he heard a vehicle take off down the road, he then heard
squealing tires, and then he heard a crash. Second, there
was the crash itself that resulted in [Albertson’s] car being
inside the home of Sara Luckenbaugh, who could have
- 14 -
J-S38030-20
sustained serious bodily injury as a result of [Albertson’s]
willful or wanton disregard for the safety of persons.
Trial Ct. Op. at 18.
Thus, it was undisputed that Albertson drove his vehicle into Ms.
Luckenbaugh’s house. The crash caused significant property damage to the
residence and was without regard to the safety of the residents of the house.
Viewing all of the evidence admitted at trial in the light most favorable to the
Commonwealth as the verdict winner, there is no reasonable basis on which
to argue that the evidence does not support Albertson’s conviction for Reckless
Driving.
The final issue challenges the weight of the evidence on all counts. When
reviewing a weight challenge on appeal, we do not determine ourselves
whether the verdict was against the weight of the evidence. Rather, we review
the trial court’s exercise of its discretion in determining, in the first instance,
whether to sustain the challenge. Commonwealth v. Johnson, 192 A.3d
1149, 1152-1153 (Pa.Super. 2018).
It is well settled that the jury is free to believe all, part, or none
of the evidence and to determine the credibility of the witnesses,
and a new trial based on a weight of the evidence claim is only
warranted where the jury’s verdict is so contrary to the evidence
that it shocks one’s sense of justice.
Commonwealth v. Houser, 18 A.3d 1128, 1135-1136 (Pa. 2011). Further,
“[w]hen the challenge to the weight of the evidence is predicated on the
credibility of trial testimony, our review of the trial court’s decision is
- 15 -
J-S38030-20
extremely limited.” Commonwealth v. Bowen, 55 A.3d 1254, 1262
(Pa.Super. 2012) (citation omitted).
Albertson failed to raise weight claims challenging the convictions of
Duties at a Stop Sign and Reckless Driving in the trial court. Therefore, those
claims are waived. See Commonwealth v. Lofton, 57 A.3d 1270, 1273
(Pa.Super. 2012). Regarding the convictions for DUI, Obstructing the
Administration of Law or Other Governmental Function, and REAP, we perceive
no reasonable basis on which Albertson could challenge the trial court’s
rejection of the weight challenge. The jury, sitting as factfinder and sole judge
of credibility, was free to believe all, part, or none of the evidence presented
in judging the credibility of the witnesses, and nothing in the record provides
any reasonable basis for arguing that the trial court abused its discretion in
rejecting the weight challenges to these convictions. Houser, 18 A.3d at
1135-1136.
In sum, we find that the issues raised in counsel’s Anders brief are
wholly frivolous. Further, after an independent review of the record, we
conclude that no other, non-frivolous issue exists. Therefore, we grant
counsel’s petition to withdraw. Having determined that the appeal is wholly
frivolous, we affirm the judgment of sentence.
