NON-PRECEDENTIAL DECISION - SEE SUPERIOR COURT I.O.P. 65.37 COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA : IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF : PENNSYLVANIA : v. : : : ALONSO ANTHONY BLUE : : Appellant : No. 2427 EDA 2018 Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence Entered June 29, 2018 In the Court of Common Pleas of Lehigh County Criminal Division at No(s): CP-39-CR-0002393-2017

BEFORE: BENDER, P.J.E., KUNSELMAN, J., and STEVENS*, P.J.E.

CONCURRING MEMORANDUM BY STEVENS, P.J.E.: FILED MAY 10, 2019 I join the Majority’s decision to affirm the judgment of sentence.

However, I would not find that Appellant presented a substantial question for our review by arguing that the trial court abused its discretion in failing to consider mitigating factors before imposing Appellant’s sentence.

“This Court has held on numerous occasions that a claim of inadequate consideration of mitigating factors does not raise a substantial question for our review.” Commonwealth v. Disalvo, 70 A.3d 900, 903 (Pa.Super. 2013). See also Commonwealth v. Patterson, 180 A.3d 1217, 1233 (Pa.Super. 2018); Commonwealth v. Miklos, 159 A.3d 962, 970 (Pa.Super. 2017). Commonwealth v. Popielarcheck, 151 A.3d 1088, 1094 (Pa.Super. 2016). As Appellant has not raised a substantial question for our review, I would not reach the merits of his challenge to the discretionary aspects of his sentence. ____________________________________ * Former Justice specially assigned to the Superior Court.
