MOTION TO CONTINUE HEARING SCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 1ST 2010

Appel lee herein is the Department of Transportation for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
having a mailing address of Department of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, P.O.
Box 68693, Harrisburg, PA 17106-8693.
Petitioner filed the within appeal of his driver's license suspension on July 21" 2010. By
order dated July 23`d 2010 the Court scheduled a hearing for September I" 2010.
The underlying basis for the suspension is Petitioner's conviction for underage possession
of alcohol, 18 Pa. Cs. 6308.
On July 22nd Petitioner filed a separate Petition for Leave to file an Appeal of the underlying
conviction, nunc pro tunc. By order dated August 20`h 2010, the Honorable Albert H.
Masland Jr. granted Petitioner 30 days from the date of the order to file a notice of appeal
from the underlying summary conviction(Exhibit A).
6. Petitioner has completed the notice of appeal from the summary conviction on August 30,
2010, and sent same by overnight delivery to the Clerk of Courts(Exhibit B).
7. Petitioner is awaiting a hearing date on the appeal from the summary conviction.
8. The success of the within appeal of license suspension is dependent upon the outcome of the
summary appeal hearing. If Petitioner is successful, then the underlying basis for the
suspension will disappear.
9. Since the: outcome of the within license suspension appeal is dependent upon the outcome
of the summary appeal hearing, it would make sense to continue the within hearing
scheduled for September 15T 20 0 until after the appeal for the summary conviction is held.

MOTION FOR SUPERCEDEAS of SUSPENSION OF PETITIONER'S DRIVING
PRIVILEGES PENDING FINAL HEARING
1. Appellant herein is Paul J. Levinsky, residing at and having an address of P.O. Box 1773,
Dickinson College Hub 1167, Carlisle, PA 17013.
2. Appellee herein is the Department of Transportation for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
having a :mailing address of Department of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, P.O.
Box 68693, Harrisburg, PA 17106-8693.
3. Appellant filed the within appeal of his driver's license suspension on July 21" 2010.
r;
{
7-
4. The underlying basis for the suspension is Appellant's conviction for underage possession
of alcohol, 18 Pa. Cs. 6308, entered on April 16" 2010.
5. On July 22nd Appellant filed a separate Petition for Leave to file an Appeal of the underlying
conviction, nunc pro tunc. The reasons for the late filing of the appeal are set forth in the
Petition(Exhibit A). By way of brief summary, petitioner missed the District Court hearing
due to a scheduling mixup wherein he believed to be the correct time was 11:15 am . The
time for the continued hearing was 9:00 a.m. , and not the 11:15am time of the initial
hearing. Petitioner was convicted after trial in absentia, and paid the fine after his parents
told. him to get it over with. Petitioner was not counseled, and did not realize the collateral
consequence of this summary offense with respect to suspension of driving privileges as well
as potential impact on his planned career as a dentist, specifically, the stringent licensing
requirements by the State of New Jersey, where he intends to practice.
6. Petitioner was not aware of these consequences until he received the PennDot notice of
driver's license suspension and retained my office to represent him. Due to a clerical error,
the within license suspension appeal was filed one day late, therefore the automatic
suprecedeas upon filing a PennDot appeal was not granted. And since the appeal of the
summary conviction was filed out of time, PennDot's normal policy upon issuing a stay of
license suspension while a summary appeal is pending also does not apply.
7. By order dated August 20" 2010, the Honorable Albert H. Masland Jr. granted Petitioner 30
days from the date of the order to file a notice of appeal from the underlying summary
conviction. Petitioner delivered the completed notice of appeal to the Clerk of Courts on
August 31s' 2010.
8. 1 discussed these issues with Philip Bricknell, Esq., the PennDot counsel who is handling this
matter. Mr. Bricknell graciously indicated that under the circumstances he would not oppose
Petitioner's motion for a supercedas to reinstate Petitioner's driving privileges pending the
outcome of this matter and of the summary appeal.
9. Petitioner has a New Jersey driver's license that is up for renewal on September 30" 2010.
He will be denied renewal of his New Jersey driver's license if this suspension remains
active. It will be a hardship for Appellant if he loses his New Jersey driving privileges
because he visits his parents home in New Jersey regularly in order to assist in caring for his
father, who is being treated for prostate cancer. Appellant assists with errands and driving
his father to medical appointments. It would be difficult for Appellant's family if he were
not able to drive to provide this assistance.

PAUL JOHN LEVINSKY
PETITION FOR LEAVE TO APPEAL MWC PRO TUVC FROM A CONVICTION nF A
SUNINIARY OFFENSE
Petitioner is Paul John Levinsky, residing at and having an address of P.O. Box 1773,
Dickinson College Hub 1167, Carlisle, PA 17013.
2
Petitioner was convicted of Underage Possession of Alcohol, contrary to Pa. C.S. 6308 on
2010 April 16'h in District Court 09-2-02. (Summons, Exhibit A to Petition) The offense
occurred on February 28"'20 10.
3
The arresting officer from Dickinson College Department of Public Service("DPS'*) advised
Petitioner to plead not guilty since Petitioner had no prior alcohol related offenses(or any
other offenses) at Dickinson College.
4
After Petitioner entered his not guilty plea, the District Court scheduled the matter for trial
on April 12" 2010 at 11:00 a.m.
5
Petitioner had a final exam in his Psychology/Brain and Behavior class as well as a college
hearing scheduled on April 12"'. Petitioner advised the Clerk of the District Court of this
conflict, and the Clerk rescheduled the hearing for April 16'h at 9:00 a.m.
6.
Petitioner had a particularly stressful week, as he had the Psych exam on Monday April 12"',
a college hearing on Thursday April 15", as well as a very demanding Physics final exam on
1-4
Thursday April 15"'. Petitioner spent tile week preparing for his college hearing as well as
these final exams. As a result, Petitioner believe that the rescheduled District Court hearing
was on April 16'h at 11:00 a.m., the time of the original bearing, instead of 9:15 a.m.
7. Petitioner showed up at the District Court on Friday April 16"' at 11:00 a.m., believing that
lie was on time, only to learn when he checked in that he was 1 hour and 45 minutes late.
He fijrther learned to his dismay that the hearing was held in his absence and would not be
rescheduled.
8. Petitioner was advised by the Clerk and the DPS officer that he could just pa}' the fine.
Petitioner called his parents, who advised him to just pay the fine and get it over w ith. Based
upon this lay advice, Petitioner paid the fine.
9. Petitioner did not realize at the time that he paid the fine that he was convicted of a summary
offense which would create a criminal related record and would lead to a mandatory
suspension of his driving privileges. He also did not realize that he had a right to file a de
noro appeal within 30 days of the conviction. Defendant believed he was simply paying a
fine for a college related alcohol offense and was not aware of the consequences of a
conviction for this summary offense.
10. Defendant did not realize that the conviction carried a period of license suspension until he
received a notification from PennDot after June 17`h 2010. By that time the period of appeal
had expired. Shortly thereafter Petitioner retained counsel to prepare the instant Petition.
11. It was only after retaining counsel that Petitioner became aware of the collateral
consequences of a conviction for a summary criminal offense. Petitioner is studying to
become a Dentist, and State license requirements in New Jersey, where he intends to
practice, are stringent. Questions are asked about offenses of any nature, and could have a
negative impact on his ability to be licensed.
12. Had Petitioner realized the potential impact on his future career, he would have retained
counsel at the District Court level. Counsel would have sought a Pre-Adjudication
Disposition under 18 Pa. C.S. 6308(c), which would have avoided a conviction and license
suspension. Alternatively, counsel would have sought to have the summan- charge amended
to a Township Ordinance, which also would have avoided these consequences. Given his
lack of prior criminal and disciplinary history at college, and that the DPS officer told
Petitioner that he was impressed with his honesty and cooperation, it is likely that Petitioner
would have avoided conviction of the summary offense under one of these two scenarios.
13. The an-esting DPS officer never found alcohol in Petitioner's possession; nor did the officer
take any breath or blood sample that would have confirmed that defendant had been drinking
alcohol.
14. Petitioner submits that he has demonstrated extenuating circumstances and that it is in the
interests of justice to allow the appeal from his conviction for driving while suspended nunc
pro tunc and to schedule this matter for a trial de noi,o.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that this Court enter an order extending the
time for filing an appeal in this matter and allowing Petitioner to appeal nunc pro twic from the April
16" 2010 conviction of Underage Possession of Alcohol and to schedule this matter for a trial de
120110.

PAUL J. LEVINSKY, IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS
PETITIONER CUMBERLAND COUNTY,
PENNSYLVANIA
v• DOCKET NO.: 10-4808, CIVIL TERM
COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA,
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, LICENSE SUSPENSION APPEAL
BUREAU OF DRIVER LICENSING,
RESPONDENT ~~ ~ z~
P_._ ~-~ ...~.~
r ~ ~
MOTION TO VACATE ~.' ~ '' .; `.`
,.~,
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Transportation, Bureau='a --~riu~r ' ~ w'~~r
~-~
Licensing (the "Department"), by and through its attorney, Philip M. Bricknell, respectll~'_,
represents as follows:
1. The Department mailed to Paul J. Levinsky a notice, dated June 17, 2010, informing
him that as a result of his April 16, 2010 conviction for violating Section 6308 of the Criminal
Code, 18 Pa.C.S. § 6308, relating to purchase, consumption, possession or transportation of
liquor or malt or brewed beverages, his driving privilege was being suspended for a period of
three months. See Exhibit 1.
2. On July 21, 2010, Levinsky filed an untimely petition for appeal from a suspension of
operating privilege in the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County. See Exhibit 2.
3. On September 9, 2010, this Court issued an order granting Levinsky's motion for a
supersedeas of the suspension of his driving privilege. See Exhibit 3. The Department was not
served with a copy of Levinsky's motion for a supersedeas.
4. Counsel for the Department was contacted regarding Levinsky's motion and did not
oppose it believing it was made in regards to a timely filed appeal.
5. Counsel for the Department became aware on September 21, 2010 that Levinsky's
appeal is untimely.
6. This Court lacks jurisdiction to grant Levinsky's motion or to hear the merits of his
appeal of the suspension of his driving privileges.
7. An appeal of a license suspension must be filed within thirty days of the mailing date
of the Department's Notice of Suspension. See 75 Pa. C.S. § 1550 and 42 Pa. C.S. §§ 5571 and
5572. See Hudson v. Department of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, 830 A.2d 594
(Pa. Cmwlth. 2003); Bye v. Department of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, 607 A.2d
325 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1992).
8. Failure to file the appeal within the thirty-day appeal period deprives the court of
jurisdiction to entertain the merits of the case. See 42 Pa.C.S. § 5505; Hudson v. Department of
Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, 830 A.2d 594 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2003); Kovalesky v.
Department of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, 850 A.2d 26 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2004);
Department of Transportation, Bureau of Motor Vehicles v. Shemer, 629 A.2d 1063 (Pa.
Cmwlth. 1993), affirmed by Shemer v. Department of Transportation, Bureau of Motor Vehicles,
536 Pa. 635, 637 A.2d 294 (1993) (appeal quashed when filed one day after the expiration of the
30-day appeal period).
9. An appeal taken after the right to take an appeal has expired is null and void and is
subject to being quashed and dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See Maxion v. Department of
Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, 728 A.2d 442 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1999); McKeown v.
Department of Transportation, 601 A.2d 486 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1991); See also Smith v. Department
of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, 749 A.2d 1065 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2000), Department
of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing v. Gross, 540 A.2d 343 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1988).
10. An appeal nunc pro tunc maybe allowed when the party requests to appeal nunc pro
tune and there is proof of fraud or breakdown of administrative or judicial system which caused
the late filing. See Kovalesky v. Department of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, 850
A.2d 26 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2004).
11. An appeal nunc pro tunc may also be allowed when the party requests to appeal nunc
pro tunc and there were extraordinary circumstances by which the petitioner was precluded from
tiling a timely appeal due to non-negligent, unforeseeable, and unavoidable consequences. See
Schofield r. Department of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, 828 A.2d 510 (Pa.
Cmwlth. 2003); Puckett v. Department of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing, 804 A.2d
140 (Pa. Cmwlth. 2002).
12. "A trial court should permit an appeal nunc pro tunc `only where the party making
the request has shown that the delay in filing the appeal was engendered by extraordinary
circumstances involving fraud or a breakdown in the court's operation through a default of its
o~cers which has resulted in injury to the appeal party. "' Department of Transportation,
Bureau of Driver Licensing v. Schillaci, 162 Pa. Commw. 542, 639 A.2d 924, 925 (Pa. Cmwlth.
1994) (emphasis in original); quoting Department of Transportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing
v. Lang, 148 Pa. Commw. 19, 610 A.2d 1076, 1077 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1991) petition for allowance of
appeal denied, 530 Pa. 647, 607 A.2d 256 (1992).
13. Before nunc pro tunc relief may be granted, Courts of Common Pleas must hold a
hearing on licensee's petition to appeal nunc pro tunc to resolve the question of why licensee's
appeal is untimely. Schillaci, 639 A.2d at 926.
14. Here, Levinsky asserts in his July 21, 2010 suspension appeal:
The [underlying] conviction is procedurally flawed because Appellant had the initial
hearing postponed, and mistakenly believed that the rescheduled date was at the llam
[sic] time of the original date. In fact the time was 9:15 am. Appellant showed up at
11 am [sic) only to be told that a hearing was held in his absence and that he was
convicted. Appellate [sic] explained the time mixup [sicJ, which was due to the fact that
he was in the midst of studying for and taking demanding final exams in his college
studies at Dickinson University. The District Court clerk advised appellant that no
further adjournments would be granted and that he should just pay the fine. Appellant
was advised same [sic] by his parents, though at the time Appellant did not realize that
the conviction would result in the suspension of his driving privileges; nor did he
realize that he was convicted of a summary offense.
Sec Exhibit 2 (emphasis added).
16. Here, Levinsky's petition presents no supporting reason to grant nunc pro tunc relief.
Nothing in Levinsky's petition indicates that the delay in filing his suspension appeal was
attributable to fraud, an administrative breakdown in the court's operations.
17. Levinsky's petition asserts no reasons for the untimely filing of his petition for
appeal from his suspension; in fact, the petition consists merely of an impermissible collateral
attack on the underlying conviction. See Dick v. Department of Transportation, Bureau of
Driver Licensing, A.2d (Pa. Cmwlth. 2010), Slip Op. at 10-11 ("The trial court may not
conduct any inquiry into whether the licensee should have been convicted.").
WHEREFORE, the Department respectfully requests that the September 9, 2010 order
granting Levinsky's motion for supersedeas be vacated and that an order scheduling a hearing
regarding the nunc pro tunc issues raised by Levinsky's petition for appeal from a suspension of
his operating privilege be issued.
Respectfully submitted,

Dickinson College Hub 1167, Carlisle, PA ]7013
?. Appellee herein is the Department ofTransportation forthe Commonwealth ofPennsylvania,
having a mai ling address of Department ofTransportation, Bureau of Driver Licensing. P.O.
Box 68693, Harrisburg, PA 17106-8693.
3. By letter or notice dated Jw~e l 7`'' 2010, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A, the
Dcpartment of Transportation ordered Appellant to surrender his operating license for a
.period ofninety(90j days based upon a conviction for 18 Pa. CS. 6308.
-1. Supersedeas: Pursuant to ?5 Pa.C.S..A. 1~50(b)(1(i), Appellant is retaining driver's license
until final deternlination of the suspension of operating privilege.
~. The said suspension of Appelant's operating privileges is improper or unla~~~ful far the
follawing reasons:
The underlying conviction that is the basis for the suspension is procedurally and
substantively fla~~-ed, and is the subject of a none pro trrrtc appeal. The conviction
is procedurally flawed because Appellant had the initial hearing postponed, and
mistakenly believed that the rescheduled date was at the 1 ! am time of the original
date. In fact the time was 9:15 arn. Appellant showed up at I l am only to be told that
a hearing was held in leis absence and that he was convicted. Appellate explained the
tune mixup, which was due to the fact that he was in the midst of studying for and
taking demanding final exams in his college studies at Dickinson University. The
District Court clerk advised appel !ant that no further adjournments would be granted
and that he should just pay the fine. Appellant was advised same by his parents,
though at the time Appellant did not realize that the conviction would result in the
suspension of his driving privileges; nor did he realize that he was comficted of a
summary offense. The conviction is substantively flatived because no one saw
Appellant possess alcohol, nor was any test given- that would have sho«~ed the
presence of alcohol in .Appellant's system. Since Appellant has filed an appeal of the
underlying conviction, the suspension should be stayed until such time that a
determination is made on the appeal. Appellant requests that this matter be set down
for a hearing and that the order of suspension be sct aside.
Respectfully, submitted,
