Commonwealth vs. Willmore 675

COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA vs. ANNETTE WILLMORE, DEFENDANT

Right to a Speedy Trial—Pennsylvania Rule of Criminal Procedure 600—Due Diligence—Reasonable

Efforts to Locate Defendant—NCIC Database.

Police exercised due diligence in their efforts to locate defendant charged with possession of illegal drugs and related crimes by visiting defendant’s last known address and entering defendant’s name into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) data-base. Thus, there was no violation of Pennsylvania Rule of Criminal Procedure 600 because the time period defendant could not be located was excluded from consideration under the rule.

In the Court of Common Pleas of Lehigh County, Pennsyl-vania—Criminal Division. No. CP-39-CR-4228-2014. Common-wealth of Pennsylvania vs. Annette Willmore, Defendant.

Jared J. Hanna, esquire, assistant district attorney, on behalf of the Commonwealth.

carol a. Marciano, esquire, assistant Public defender, on behalf of the defendant.

ford, J., February 3, 2015. Defendant, Annette Willmore, is charged with possession of a controlled substance, 35 P.S. §780-113(a)(16), and possession of drug paraphernalia, 35 P.S. §780-113(a)(32). These charges stem from a police stop of a vehicle operated by defendant on July 20, 2012. During the stop, police recovered cocaine and drug paraphernalia from the vehicle.

On December 8, 2014, defendant filed an omnibus pretrial motion. This contains a suppression motion and a motion to dismiss the charges under Pa. R.Crim.P. 600.

A hearing on defendant’s Rule 600 motion was conducted on December 22, 2014. A hearing on the outstanding suppression motion is scheduled for February 4, 2015. At the Rule 600 hearing, the district attorney and the public defender submitted Exhibit J-1, their stipulated facts to decide the motion. I now explain that defendant’s Rule 600 motion lacks merit and is therefore denied.

STIPuLATED FACTS

1. On July 20, 2012, Allentown police arrested defendant and a co-defendant, Ernest Gumby, for possession of suspected cocaine

Commonwealth vs. Willmore

Commonwealth vs. Willmore676

Lehigh 7-17 op

and drug paraphernalia after a vehicle stop in Allentown, Lehigh County.

2. On July 25, 2012, Allentown police filed a criminal com-plaint charging defendant with possession of illegal drugs, con-spiracy to possess illegal drugs, possession of drug paraphernalia and tampering with evidence.

3. On September 6, 2012, Allentown police caused a warrant to be issued for defendant’s arrest. That same day, police entered the warrant into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) database and looked for defendant at her last known address, 632 South Fawn Street, Apartment 9, in Allentown. When police vis-ited that address, they encountered a woman who stated that she was the current tenant and that she did not know defendant.

4. The NCIC central database is operated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It is a system for police to post criminal information such as outstanding arrest warrants on the database which can be quickly accessed by law enforcement nationwide. (See www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ncic. The court takes judicial notice of this information under Pa. R.E. 201.)

5. On July 21, 2014, the upper Saucon Township Police Department notified Allentown police that they had taken co-defendant, Ernest Gumby, into custody on his Allentown police warrant for the July 20, 2012 incident.

6. On August 27, 2014, defendant turned herself in to the Allentown police substation at 1005 West Hamilton Street in Al-lentown on her warrant.

DISCuSSION AND CONCLuSIONS OF LAW

Defendant contends that the Commonwealth did not bring her to trial within 365 days of the filing of the criminal complaint, so this case should be dismissed. Pa. R.Crim.P. 600(A)(2)(a) re-quires that “[t]rial in a court case in which a written complaint is filed against the defendant shall commence within 365 days from the date on which the complaint is filed.” The chronological or mechanical 365-day run date was July 25, 2013.

The Commonwealth contends that defendant could not be apprehended between September 6, 2012 and August 27, 2014,

12

Commonwealth vs. Willmore 677

Lehigh 7-17 op

because her whereabouts were unknown and could not be ascer-tained despite due diligence on the part of police. Therefore, the Commonwealth argues that period should be excluded from the computation of the time within which defendant’s trial was to com-mence.

For purposes of Rule 600,

... periods of delay at any stage of the proceedings caused by the Commonwealth when the Commonwealth has failed to exercise due diligence shall be included in the computation of the time within which trial must commence. Any other periods of delay shall be excluded from the computation.

Pa. R.Crim.P. 600(C)(1).

The issue in these proceedings is whether the Commonwealth used due diligence to locate the defendant during this extended time when her location was unknown. The Commonwealth has the burden of proving that it did. In order to satisfy this burden, the Commonwealth is not required to show that “every conceivable effort” was used to locate the defendant. Commonwealth v. Lynn, 815 A.2d 1053, 1059 (Pa. Super. 2003). The efforts need only be reasonable, and are to be judged “by what was done, not by what was not done.” Commonwealth v. Ingram, 404 Pa. Superior Ct. 560, 567, 591 A.2d 734, 737 (1991). “Due diligence is a fact-specific concept that must be determined on a case-by-case basis.” Com-monwealth v. Ramos, 936 A.2d 1097, 1102 (Pa. Super. 2007).

According to our Supreme Court,

It is not the function of our courts to second-guess the methods used by police to locate accused persons. The analysis to be employed is whether, considering the informa-tion available to the police, they have acted with diligence in attempting to locate the accused. Deference must be af-forded the police officer’s judgment as to which avenues of approach will be fruitful.

Commonwealth v. Mitchell, 472 Pa. 553, 566, 372 A.2d 826, 832 (1977).

Commonwealth vs. Willmore678

Lehigh 7-17 op

Here, Allentown police visited defendant’s last known address on September 6, 2012, the day the warrant for her arrest was is-sued. The police could have expected additional visits would have been futile because the apartment was occupied by a new tenant who stated she did not know defendant. When the police could not locate defendant at her last known address, they immediately entered defendant’s warrant information into the NCIC database.

The police posting of defendant’s warrant information on the NCIC database created a high likelihood of defendant’s arrest if she had any official contact with law enforcement. The steps taken by the police in this case could realistically have ended in appre-hension of the defendant due to the NCIC posting as opposed to token activity which would result in a longer list of efforts made but would be no more effective beyond the posting. The court does not speculate as to additional steps the police might have taken. With their many cases, the police have a responsibility to use re-sources in an efficient manner to accomplish their primary work of protection of the community. The course of action taken in this case to locate the defendant made sense and showed due diligence.

For these reasons, the period from September 6, 2012 to August 27, 2014, is not charged to the Commonwealth under Rule 600. Because there has been no violation of the rule, the motion is denied.

We are proud to remind all lawyers that the Bar Association of Lehigh County has conducted an Assistance Program to benefit area 501c3 organizations to provide much needed assistance to our surrounding communities for many years.

Remember, these contributions stay in the Greater Lehigh Valley area. The Program is administered through the Lehigh Valley Community Foundation and all gifts are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. The Foundation will acknowledge all gifts for tax purposes. We will recognize all those nonprofit organizations receiving funds as part of our Law Day celebration in May. Past years’ contributions went to the Crime Victims Council of the Lehigh Valley, Dream Come True, The Lehigh Valley Zoo, Community Bike Works, The Victory House, Angel 34 , Miracle League of the Lehigh Valley and many more.

CLE UPDATE for the week of: November 27, 2015

BALC LUNCH AND LEARN SEMINAR “Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.”

Presented by: Malcolm J. Gross, Esquire Tuesday, December 1, 2015

This lecture will examine the highlights of perhaps America’s most brilliant legal career by looking not only at Holmes’ major dissents and decisions but also looking to his life history as being a basis for many of his legal theories. Holmes, in addition to being a brilliant jurist, is a profoundly interesting human being as we will see.

Attorney Malcolm J. Gross is a founding partner of Gross McGinley, LLP, headquartered in Allentown, where he has long represented media interests, including representing them in their pursuit of access to government records. Malcolm J. Gross was born in Allentown, PA. He graduated from Muhlenberg College, cum laude in 1962, with a Bachelor’s Degree in History and Political Science. He earned his J.D. from Villanova University School of Law in Philadelphia in 1965 and was admitted to the Pennsylvania Bar that year. While at Villanova, he was an editor of the Law Review. Mr. Gross also is admitted to the United States District Court for the Eastern District and Middle Districts of Pennsylvania, the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit and the Supreme Court of the United States.

Attorney Gross has written on a wide range of topics, and his articles have appeared in such national publications as Social Work, Case & Comment, and Communications and the Law. He also has published work in the Pennsylvania Bar Quarterly and the Pennsylvania Law Journal Reporter. Some of his articles cover press law including defamation, subpoenas, and freedom of information issues. He also writes about general-interest issues such as custody and domestic relations.

In 2004, 2006, and 2012, Attorney Gross was named a Pennsylvania Super Lawyer, reserved for the top 5 percent of Pennsylvania attorneys, and holds an AV Rating by Martindale-Hubbell Legal Directory.
