COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v. LILI MARARITA WINGER
No. 2003 MDA 2007 2008 PA Super 211 Atlantic: n/a Filed: 9/12/2008
Appeal from the Order entered October 31, 2007In the Court of Common Pleas of Centre CountyCriminal, No. CP-14-CR-0001508-2007
Before: GANTMAN, SHOGAN, AND KELLY, JJ.
Opinion by: GANTMAN, J.
Appellant, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, asks us to determine whether the Centre County Court of Common Pleas erred when it granted habeas corpus relief and dismissed the charge, filed against Appellee, Lili Mararita Winger, of endangering the welfare of children. We hold the trial court erred when it dismissed the charge, because the Commonwealth produced probable cause to establish a prima facie case for that offense. Accordingly, we reverse and remand for further proceedings.
