DISSENTING STATEMENT BY STRASSBURGER, J.:

                                                     FILED JANUARY 16, 2020

       I respectfully dissent because I would hold disposition of the instant

appeal until after this Court’s en banc review of the following appeals,

Commonwealth v. Rebecca Johnson, 2063 EDA 2018; Commonwealth

v. Ron Larkin, 2761 EDA 2018; and Commonwealth v. Jerome Johnson,

1620 EDA 2018; 2045 EDA 2018; 2046 EDA 2018; and 2047 EDA 2018. On

October 4, 2019, this Court ordered that the aforementioned appeals be listed

before the next available en banc panel. The primary issues are whether (1)

Appellant’s inclusion of multiple court of common pleas docket numbers on his

or her notices of appeal violates Pa.R.A.P. 341 and Commonwealth v.

Walker, 185 A.3d 969 (Pa. 2018); and (2) if so, whether such violation

necessitates quashal by this Court. Because these issues are precisely before

us in the instant appeal, I would wait until disposition of the en banc cases

before ruling on Appellant’s appeal.
