Description
1 Appellant, Kelvin O. Jones, appeals from the judgment of sentence entered in the Lehigh County Court of Common Pleas, following his conviction for first degree murder. Appellant asks us to determine whether the Commonwealth violated his speedy trial rights under the Interstate Agreement on Detainers ("IAD") and Pennsylvania Rule of Criminal Procedure 600. Additionally, Appellant challenges the sufficiency and the weight of the evidence used to support his conviction for first degree murder. We hold the Commonwealth did not violate Appellants speedy trial rights under either the IAD or Rule 600. Further, we hold the evidence was sufficient to support Appellants conviction, and the verdict was not against the weight of the evidence. Accordingly, we affirm.
