Task: Wrong Candidate Generation
Input (English): in April 2004, after which it denied appellant’s requests for an arrest of judgment or new trial, but granted appellant’s motion for a new penalty hearing. The court concluded that mitigation counsel had rendered ineffective assistance during his closing argument. The Commonwealth appealed the trial court’s order granting a new penalty phase hearing and appellant likewise filed an appeal in which he challenged the trial court’s denial of relief on all other claims set forth in his post-sentence motions. For the reasons that follow, we affirm the trial court’s orders granting a new penalty hearing and denying all other claims. In all instances in which the death penalty is imposed, this Court begins its review with an inquiry into the sufficiency of .the evidence 88 A.2d 564, 568 (2005) (<HOLDING>).
