Pauli v. Commonwealth

Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania

Decided August 6, 1981

Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania · decided 1981-08-06

Relies on 34 Pa. Commw. 310 - Bureau of Traffic Safety v. Lea · Commonwealth v. Parr

Decided 1981-08-06

¶1Opinion by

President Judge Crumlish,

¶2The Common Pleas Court of Allegheny County affirmed the revocation of William D. Pauli’s motor vehicle operating privileges by the Secretary of Transportation. He appeals.

¶3The only issues before us are (1). whether a two-month period between receipt of certification of conviction and notice of revocation is an unreasonable ad*91ministrative delay and (2) was there a resulting prejudice to Pauli. See Department of Transportation, Bureau of Traffic Safety v. Parr, 56 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 203, 205, 424 A.2d 604, 605 (1981). A two-month period between receipt of certification and notice of revocation is not an unreasonable time prejudicial to Pauli. See Department of Transportation, Bureau of Traffic Safety v. Lea, 34 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 310, 384 A.2d 269 (1978).

¶4Absent a showing of delay, coupled with prejudice, we will not order the reinstatement of Pauli’s license. In this case, there has been neither delay nor prejudice.

¶5Affirmed.

¶6Order

¶7The order of the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County is hereby affirmed.
