CORBY, Defendant IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA No. 2003- APPEAL FROM DRIVER'S LICENSE SUSPENSION PETITION FOR APPEAL FROM DRIVER'S LICENSE SUSPENSION Petitioner, Jeffrey Charles Corby, by his attorneys, Broujos & Gilroy, P.C., sets forth the following: 1 Petitioner is an adult individual with a mailing address of 18 Cobblestone Drive, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. 2 duly licensed to operate a motor vehicle in the Commonwealth of Petitioner is Pennsylvania. 3 By letter dated September 17, 2003, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Transportation issued a Notice of Suspension of Driver's License to the Petitioner suggesting that his driver's license was being suspended as a result of a violation which took place on September 27, 2002 for violation of 18 P.S. §6308(a) of the Crimes Code. A copy of said notice is attached hereto and marked Exhibit "A'. 4 The effective date of the suspension is October 22, 2003. 5 Petitioner believes the suspension in question was a result of this court's order of August 28, 2003 whereby Petitioner was admitted into the Cumberland County ARD Program on various charges including one charge of purchase, consumption, possession or transportation of liquor/malt or brewed beverage. A copy of said order is attached hereto and marked Exhibit "B'. 6 By order of this court dated September 23, 2003, the order of August 28, 2003 was modified to correct the error. The charge of purchase, consumption, possession or transportation of liquor/malt or brewed beverage was to be dismissed pursuant to the ARD disposition. The September 23, 2003 order of court modifies the court's August 28, 2003 order by specifying that Petitioner was not entered into the Cumberland County ARD Program on the charge of purchase, consumption, possession or transportation of liquor/malt or brewed beverage. The September 23, 2003 order further dismissed that charge. A copy of said order is attached hereto and marked Exhibit "C". 7 With the dismissal of said charge by virtue of the September 23, 2003 order, the order of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Transportation suspending Petitioner's license is illegal, arbitrary, unreasonable and an abuse of discretion contrary to law. WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests your Honorable Court that this appeal be allowed and that a hearing de novo be granted to determine whether the Petitioner is subject to suspension of operating privileges, and that this appeal act as a supercedeas pending hearing, and that upon conclusion thereof, the order of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Department of Transportation be vacated and the appeal sustained.
