            VIRGINIA:
                         In the Court of Appeals of Virginia on Tuesday            the 12th day of September, 2017.
PUBLISHED




            Jahsen Heard,                                                                                           Appellant,

            against               Record No. 1576-16-1
                                  Circuit Court Nos. CR16-114-00 through CR16-114-02

            Commonwealth of Virginia,                                                                               Appellee.


                                               From the Circuit Court of the City of Hampton

                                               Before Judges Humphreys, Decker and Russell


                      This petition for appeal is granted in part and denied in part. And an appeal is awarded to the

            appellant from a judgment of the Circuit Court of the City of Hampton, dated September 21, 2016, with

            respect to the following assignment of error:

                      The trial court erred in denying Heard’s motion to strike (and motion to set aside) the charges of

            robbery, attempted carjacking, and conspiracy to commit carjacking, where: 1) with regard to all three

            offenses, the victim, Roy Keddy, never identified Heard as one of the participants in the robbery and thus

            there remained a reasonable doubt whether Heard actually committed or otherwise aided or abetted those

            offenses; 2) with regard to the conspiracy, there was no proof that Heard entered into an agreement to commit

            robbery beforehand and the robbery might have been committed spontaneously; and 3) with regard to the

            robbery of the phone, there was no proof that the taking of the phone had been accomplished through the use

            of force, threat, or intimidation, where no demands were made for the phone and the victim was unable to say

            whether the phone had been taken in the course of the robbery.

                      No bond is required. The clerk is directed to certify this action to the trial court and to all counsel of

            record.

                      Pursuant to Rule 5A:25, an appendix is required in this appeal and shall be filed by the appellant at the

            time of the filing of the opening brief.
          After a petition for appeal has been denied as a result of the one-judge review authorized by Code

§ 17.1-407(C), an appellant, pursuant to Rule 5A:15(a) or Rule 5A:15A(a) “may demand consideration of the

petition by three-judge panel pursuant to Code § 17.1-407(D).” Rule 5A:15(a) and Rule 5A:15A(a) require

that such a demand “include a statement identifying how the one-judge order is in error . . . .” In this case,

appellant’s demand for consideration by a three-judge panel did not aver that the one-judge denial order is in

error regarding the second or third assignments of error in his petition, and therefore, those assignments of

error were not reviewed by the three-judge panel. Accordingly, the remainder of the petition for appeal in

this case remains denied for the reasons set forth in the order of this Court dated May 5, 2017.

          This Court’s records reflect that Charles E. Haden, Esquire, is counsel of record for appellant in this

matter.

          This order shall be published.
