In order to successfully challenge the defendant's
enrollment in the Pretrial Intervention ("PTI") Program, the
State's appeal must be filed within fifteen days of the order of
enrollment to obtain a stay of the order. The Rules provide
that an order of enrollment into PTI over the Prosecutor's
objection is final for purposes of appeal, but must be filed
within fifteen days to stay defendant's participation in the
program.
