If you are appealing a decision to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, your Bucks County criminal lawyer, in filing your appeal to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, should be mindful of deadlines. The first filing should be the Petition for Allowance of Appeal. This must be filed within 30 days of the order from the Superior Court or Commonwealth Court and must follow the Rules regarding the content of the Petition for Allowance of Appeal.
The Commonwealth may (although they are not required to) file an Answer to the Petition for Allowance of Appeal. Depending upon how your Bucks County lawyer "serves" the prosecutor, they will have 14-17 days to file an answer. If they do not file an answer, do not assume that the prosecutors agree with your petition. Rather the Rules of Appellate Procedure indicate that, "The failure to file an answer will not be construed as concurrence in the request for allowance of appeal."
Then, you will have to wait to receive a certified copy of the order via first class mail notifying you whether the Supreme Court grants or denies your petition.
