COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v. MELVIN GARCIA-RIVERA No. 1466 MDA 2008 2009 PA Super 213 Atlantic: n/a Filed: 11/5/2009 | |
Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence, July 22, 2008, in the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County Criminal Division at No. CP-21-CR-0001837-2007 | |
Before: FORD ELLIOTT, P.J., MUSMANNO AND COLVILLE,* JJ. | |
Opinion by: FORD ELLIOT, P.J. | |
The Commonwealth appeals from Melvin Garcia-Rivera’s (“Garcia Rivera” or “appellee”) judgment of sentence of July 22, 2008. The Commonwealth contends that the trial court failed to put reasons on the record supporting its imposition of a mitigated range sentence. After careful review, we are compelled to agree and, therefore, vacate the judgment of sentence and remand for resentencing. |
