1Opinion of the Court

OPINION BY LAZARUS, J.:

Kathleen Granahan Kane appeals from the judgment of sentence, entered in the Court of Common Pleas of Montgomery County, imposed following her conviction for perjury,1 false swearing in an official proceeding,2 obstructing the administration of law,3 official oppression,4 and criminal conspiracy.5 After careful review, we affirm, in part, on the basis of the trial court's well-reasoned opinion.

This matter implicates constitutional issues, the rule of law, and a fundamental tenet underlying our legal system-the truth and sanctity of testimony under oath.6
