Superior Court - COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v. DESMOND SCOTT

COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v. DESMOND SCOTT
No. 912 EDA 2007 2009 PA Super 34 Atlantic: 967 A.2d 995 Filed: 2/25/2009

Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence March 12, 2007
In the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County
Criminal Division at No. CP-51-CR-0609801-2006
Before: BENDER, PANELLA and KELLY, JJ.
Opinion by: BENDER, J.
Desmond Scott appeals the judgment of sentence imposed following his conviction of Escape, 18 Pa.C.S. § 5121, in connection with his failure to return to a Community Correction Center. Scott contends that the evidence adduced at trial was not legally sufficient to sustain his conviction as he was on parole at the time of the events charged and that the record fails to establish otherwise. Upon review, we find no merit in Scott’s assertion. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of sentence.
