                       Appellant              :       No. 341 MDA 2018

         Appeal from the Judgment of Sentence Entered October 23, 2017
     In the Court of Common Pleas of York County Criminal Division at No(s):
                            CP-67-CR-0007390-2016

CONCURRING STATEMENT BY STEVENS, P.J.E.:                 FILED JANUARY 17, 2020

          I concur with the majority and write separately only to amplify that had

the Commonwealth presented evidence of Appellant's relevant conspiratorial

text messages, as acquired through either         a   warrant search of his cell phone

or    a   lawful search of Co-defendant's phone, it would have established

Appellant's joint constructive possession of the contraband stored in the

locked glove box.
