COMMONWEALTH v. PEDRO VEGA.


NOTICE: Decisions issued by the Appeals Court pursuant to its rule 1:28 are primarily addressed to the parties and, therefore, may not fully address the facts of the case or the panel's decisional rationale. Moreover, rule 1:28 decisions are not circulated to the entire court and, therefore, represent only the views of the panel that decided the case. A summary decision pursuant to rule 1:28, issued after February 25, 2008, may be cited for its persuasive value but, because of the limitations noted above, not as binding precedent.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER PURSUANT TO RULE 1:28

The defendant, Pedro Vega, appeals from his conviction by a jury of possession of cocaine with intent to distribute and violating a drug law within a school zone. The defendant claims that the evidence was insufficient to support the convictions. The Commonwealth agrees. Our independent review confirms that the defendant and the Commonwealth are correct. Accordingly, on both counts the judgments are reversed, the verdicts are set aside, and judgments shall enter for the defendant.

The remaining judgment is affirmed.

So ordered.

By the Court (Cypher, Kafker & Meade, JJ.),
