COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA v. DESMOND JANQDHARI, Appellant

CONCURRING MEMORANDUM BY McLAUGHLIN, J.

NON-PRECEDENTIAL DECISION - SEE SUPERIOR COURT I.O.P. 65.37

Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence Entered April 11, 2018
In the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County Criminal Division at No(s): CP-51-CR-0003047-2014 BEFORE: LAZARUS, J., NICHOLS, J., and McLAUGHLIN, J. CONCURRING MEMORANDUM BY McLAUGHLIN, J.:

I respectfully concur in the result. Desmond Janqdhari's Pa.R.A.P. 2119(f) statement asks us to grant review of whether the imposition of consecutive sentences resulted in an aggregate sentence that was "unduly harsh, considering the . . . length of imprisonment." Janqdhari's Br. at 26 (quoting Commonwealth v. Lamonda , 52 A.3d 365, 372 (Pa.Super. 2012)). I conclude that this states a substantial question, pursuant to Lamonda. I nonetheless concur in the result, as I perceive no abuse of discretion in the imposition of consecutive sentences in this case.
