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.
