Summary

Erroneously admitted evidence; appeal. Provides that when a criminal conviction is appealed based on a claim that the evidence to convict was insufficient because the trial court improperly admitted evidence, the reviewing court shall consider all evidence admitted at trial to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to sustain the conviction. If the reviewing court determines that evidence was erroneously admitted and that such error was not harmless, the case must be remanded for a new trial if the Commonwealth so elects.
