I would like to use one pattern that handles having a date in the subject and not having a date in the subject. Can't get it to work both ways. Also the 9 digit number appears twice, which is quite a mystery to me.

Code:
$subject = " DRUG COURT REVIEW S18 151905861 State Felony";

$subject2 = "    10:00 AM      DRUG COURT REVIEW                 SSL 151907220 State Felony";

echo "<br /><br />SUBJECT:".$subject."<br />";

$pattern = "/(\d{2}:\d{2}\s(AM|PM)\s)(.*)(\w{3,4}\s)(([0-9]{9})\s)(.*)/";  // works with a date

$pattern2 = "/(.*)(\w{3,4}\s)(([0-9]{9})\s)(.*)/";                         // works without date

$retval = preg_match($pattern2,$subject,$matches, PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE);

echo "<br />RESULT COUNT>>> ".count($matches)."<<<<br />";  

if ($retval==1) {

  print_r($matches);

  if (isset($matches[1][0]))

    echo "<br />RESULT>>> ".$matches[1][0]."<<<";  

  if (isset($matches[2][0]))

    echo "<br />RESULT>>> ".$matches[2][0]."<<<";      

  if (isset($matches[3][0]))

    echo "<br />RESULT>>> ".$matches[3][0]."<<<";     

  if (isset($matches[4][0]))

    echo "<br />RESULT>>> ".$matches[4][0]."<<<";  

  if (isset($matches[5][0]))

    echo "<br />RESULT>>> ".$matches[5][0]."<<<";

  if (isset($matches[6][0]))

    echo "<br />RESULT>>> ".$matches[6][0]."<<<";

  if (isset($matches[7][0]))

    echo "<br />RESULT>>> ".$matches[7][0]."<<<";     

 }

else

  echo "No match! <br />";
