Commonwealth v. Foreman
Superior Court of Pennsylvania
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION BY
STEVENS, P.J.
This is an appeal from the order entered in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County denying Appellant’s petition filed under the Post Conviction Relief Act (PCRA), 42 Pa.C.S.A. §§ 9541-46, following an evidentiary hearing. Appellant contends he is entitled to relief under 42 Pa.C.S.A. § 9543(a)(2)(vi) on the basis of exculpatory after-discovered evidence, and therefore, the PCRA court erred in denying his PCRA petition. We affirm.
On direct appeal, this Court previously set forth, in relevant part, the following factual and procedural history:
