If the court determines that there were no reasonable grounds for counsel’s actions designed to effectuate appellant’s interests, see Commonwealth ex rel. Washington v. Maroney, 427 Pa. 599, 235 A.2d 349 (1967), an order shall be entered granting appellant a new trial. If it is determined that trial counsel’s representation was effective, the judgment of sentence shall be reinstated. The parties may appeal the hearing court’s determination. See Commonwealth v.
