COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v. DAVID PIERRE KING No. 1978 WDA 2008 2010 PA Super 16 Atlantic: n/a Filed: 2/1/2010
	Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence of July 19, 2007, in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Criminal Division at No. CP-02-CR-0009438-2005
Before: PANELLA, SHOGAN and COLVILLE, JJ.
Opinion by: COLVILLE, J.
This case is an appeal from judgment of sentence. There are three issues: (1) whether the evidence was sufficient to support Appellant’s conviction for third degree murder; (2) whether the trial court erred in denying Appellant’s motion to bar his trial on grounds of double jeopardy; and (3) whether the trial court erred in not setting aside the verdict due to juror misconduct. We affirm the judgment of sentence.
