COMMONWEALTH v. ROBINSON


403 Mass. 163 (1988)

526 N.E.2d 778

COMMONWEALTH vs. PIERRE A. ROBINSON.

Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, Suffolk.

August 4, 1988.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Newman Flanagan, District Attorney, Kevin J. Ross & Lynn M. Beland, Assistant District Attorneys, for the Commonwealth.

Stephen Hrones for the defendant.

Present: HENNESSEY, C.J., WILKINS, LIACOS, ABRAMS, NOLAN, LYNCH, & O'CONNOR, JJ.


ABRAMS, J.

At issue is the correctness of an order allowing the defendant's motion to suppress evidence seized from the defendant's person. The Commonwealth applied to a single justice for leave to appeal. See Mass. R. Crim. P. 15 (b) (2), 378 Mass. 884 (1979). The single justice allowed the Commonwealth's application and transferred the case to this court. We reverse the order allowing the defendant's motion to suppress.
