When deemed admissions establish all elements of a claim, summary judgment for the plaintiff is appropriate. The court granted summary judgment to plaintiff. Discover Bank v. Andresen, 4 D.&C.5th 353 (Lancaster County, May 22, 2008) Ashworth, J.

Defendant’s learning disability did not prevent him from giving a knowing, intelligent and voluntary waiver of his Miranda rights where defendant appeared to clearly understand the implications of waiving those rights and of preparing signed confessions for police. Motion to suppress denied. Commonwealth v. Karper, 4 D.&C.5th 357 (Carbon County, December 5, 2007) Nanovic, J.
