COM. v. PERRY


386 Pa.Super. 534 (1989)

563 A.2d 511

COMMONWEALTH of Pennsylvania v. Admiral PERRY, Appellant.

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.

Filed August 17, 1989.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Bernard Turner, Philadelphia, for appellant.

Donna G. Zucker, Asst. Dist. Atty., Philadelphia, for Com.

Before DEL SOLE, KELLY and HESTER, JJ.


KELLY, Judge:

Appellant's sole contention on appeal is that the trial court erred in dismissing his Post Conviction Relief Act (PCRA)1 petition which alleged that the Bureau of Corrections had erred in the calculation of his credit for time served. We agree that a PCRA petition is not the proper vehicle for appellant to raise this challenge, and affirm the order of the trial court.
