COMMONWEALTH of Pennsylvania, Appellee v. Ricky Lynn McCALL, Appellant.

Decided December 19, 2001.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Andrea Konow, Collegeville, for appellant, Ricky Lynn McCall.

Before FLAHERTY, C.J., and ZAPPALA, CAPPY, CASTILLE, NIGRO, NEWMAN and SAYLOR, JJ.

Justice NEWMAN.

We granted appeal in this matter to determine whether former counsel for Ricky Lynn McCall (Appellant) was ineffective for failing to brief and argue on direct appeal Appellant's subsequent acquittal of a prior crime that was used as evidence of motive and intent during trial of the instant matter, thus entitling him to relief pursuant to the Post-Conviction Relief Act, 42 Pa.C.S. §§ 9541—9546.
