COMMONWEALTH of Pennsylvania v. Mary M. CAUFMAN, Appellant.

Superior Court of Pennsylvania.

Filed July 14, 1992.

Reargument Denied September 18, 1992.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

William C. Sacco, Erie, for appellant.

Patrick M. Carey, Asst. Dist. Atty., Erie, for Com., appellee.

Before ROWLEY, President Judge, and MONTEMURO and HESTER, JJ.


MONTEMURO, Judge:

This is an appeal from an order denying appellant's pretrial motion requesting that her case be dismissed on the grounds that the present prosecution violates the Double Jeopardy clause of the United States Constitution. The sole issue raised on review is whether appellant's prosecution for homicide by vehicle is barred by double jeopardy due to her previous plea of guilty to a summary traffic citation.
