Description

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania appeals from an order of the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County which stayed a sale of the property forfeited to the Commonwealth to allow its seventy-two year old owner, who had been convicted of the drug-related criminal charges underlying the forfeiture, to continue to reside at the property. The issue on appeal is whether the trial court has authority in a forfeiture proceeding to devise an equitable remedy, which is not provided by Sections 6801 and 6802 of the Judicial Code, 42 Pa. C.S. 6801 and 6802, commonly known as the Controlled Substance Forfeiture Act (Forfeiture Act).
