| COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v. ANDRE EDWARD BASKING No. 1129 WDA 2007 2009 PA Super 67 Atlantic: 970 A.2d 1181 Filed: 4/14/2009 | |
| Appeal from the Order Entered May 17, 2007, In the Court of Common Pleas, Allegheny County, Criminal, at No. CC 200517437 | |
| Before: FORD ELLIOTT, P.J., LALLY-GREEN and ALLEN, JJ. | |
| Opinion by: ALLEN, J. | |
| In this case, we are asked to explore the contours of the common authority and apparent authority doctrines, which are corollaries to the consent exception to the warrant requirement. Additionally, this Court must decide if the apparent authority exception, if adopted and applied to the citizens of this Commonwealth, violates the strong notion of privacy inherent in Article I, Section 8 of the Pennsylvania Constitution. | |
