Description
¶ 1 Jay Michael Boyer, Jr. (Appellant) appeals from the judgment of sentence entered in the Court of Common Pleas of Union County, following his conviction for one count of conspiracy to commit robbery, two counts of robbery, one count of burglary, and two counts each of terroristic threats, unlawful restraint, and simple assault. On appeal, Appellant claims that the imposition of a 26 to 100 year sentence was manifestly excessive; that he was denied a fair trial because the trial court permitted the introduction of evidence of the guilty plea of a co-defendant; that the trial court failed to give a cautionary instruction to the jury that this guilty plea should not be considered as evidence; that the omission of a corrupt source instruction was error; and that the trial court erred in finding that Appellant's counsel did not render ineffective assistance. Upon review, we affirm the judgment of sentence, and dismiss the ineffective assistance of counsel claims without prejudice.
