Description
¶ 1 The Commonwealth asks us to determine whether the trial court erroneously failed to sentence Appellee/Cross-Appellant, Thomas Lee Edrington, to the mandatory minimum sentence of twenty-five years pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S.A § 9714, following a guilty plea to his third violent offense. We hold that the Commonwealth's issue challenging the legality of Edrington's sentence is cognizable on appeal, despite the Commonwealth's failure to file the ordered Rule 1925(b) Concise Statement of Matters Complained of on Appeal. We further hold that the trial court erred when it refused to apply the mandatory sentencing provision of Section 9714(a)(2) after Edrington pled guilty to his third violent offense. Accordingly, we vacate Edrington's judgment of sentence and remand for resentencing.
