Commonwealth v. Ferrari
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
1Opinion of the Court
KELLY, Judge:
Appellant, Mark Joseph Ferrari, appeals from judgment of sentence imposed following his conviction of various offenses relating to his telephonic harassment and physical assault of his estranged wife. On appeal, appellant contends that he was improperly denied a preliminary hearing as the result of the trial court’s misapplication of Pa.R. Crim.P. 231(a), illegally seized evidence was improperly admitted under the plain view exception, and the evidence was insufficient to sustain his conviction for carrying a firearm without a license. We affirm judgment of sentence.
