Attorney Noel is back before the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania after that Court granted yet another Petition for Allowance of Appeal filed by Attorney Noel. This time, the Court is slated to decide important questions surrounding how much notice the Commonwealth is required to provide to criminal defendants of its intent to offer expert testimony regarding common victim responses and behaviors. Attorney Noel has also asked the Supreme Court decide whether the proposed expert must prepare, and the Commonwealth must disclose, a detailed report stating the subject matter on which the expert is expected to testify; the substance of the facts to which the expert is expected to testify; and a summary of the expert's opinions and the grounds for each opinion.

In 2019 alone, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania granted two petitions for allowance of appeal filed by Attorney Noel on behalf of her clients.  This is notable because, unlike the Superior Court of Pennsylvania, to which defendants have a right to appeal, the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania accepts only about 30 non-capital criminal cases per year on a discretionary basis.
