Commonwealth v. Elisco

Superior Court of Pennsylvania

Decided October 25, 1995No. 00190PublishedCited by 13 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

POPOVICH, Judge:

The Commonwealth appeals from an order entered in the Court of Common Pleas of Lawrence County dismissing its petition for a writ of certiorari. The Commonwealth sought review of a district justice’s dismissal of a summary driving offense charge filed against appellee, Mark Elisco. The Commonwealth now contends that the trial court erred in holding that the district justice did not commit an error that was reviewable on certiorari. After careful review, we vacate the order entered in the lower court and remand for proceedings consistent with this opinion.
