Uniform Firearms Act • Bar to Ownership/Possession • Enumerated Felonies
Commonwealth v. Grove, PICS Case No. 17-1402 (Pa. Super. Aug. 31, 2017) Solano, J. (43 pages).
Defendant’s contention that his 1978 conviction for criminal trespass did not constitute an “enumerated offense” under Section 6105 of the Uniform Firearms Act, thus barring him from owning a gun, was meritless; therefore, trial counsel was not ineffective for failing to raise the claim. The court affirmed an order denying defendant relief under the Post Conviction Relief Act.
