Error when query Empty SQLite DB

I am writing an Android App and I have a DB Helper class to do just about anything that is related to a SQLite DB. Name of the class is "ResultsDbAdapter". Following are some info about the DB:

private static final String DATABASE_NAME = "PROJECT_RESULTS";
private static final String DATABASE_TABLE = "projectResults";
private static final int DATABASE_VERSION = 1;

//Fields(Columns) for Database
public static final String[] PROJECT_RESULTS_FIELDS = new String[] {
    KEY_ROWID,    
    "title",
    "interval", 
    "start",
    "end",  
    "duration",
    "totalHits",
    "itemKeys",
    "keyHits"
};

In the ResultsDbAdapter class is a method to query the DB for a specific entry by searching the "title" column.

public Cursor fetchByTitle(String pTitle) throws SQLException {
    Cursor mCursor = mDb.query(DATABASE_TABLE, PROJECT_RESULTS_FIELDS, "title" + "=" + pTitle, null,
                null, null, null, null);
    return mCursor;
}

The "fetchByTitle" method is then called in the Main Activity with the following snippet of code:

final ResultsDbAdapter db = new ResultsDbAdapter (this);
db.open(); //Open and Close methods are also written in the "ResultsDbAdapter" class
final Cursor cursor = db.fetchByTitle(mTitle); //mTitle is the title of the record needed
if (cursor.moveToFirst()){
          // do something
 } else {
          //do something else
 }
db.close();

The app when first run on an emulator causes an error which I think is because there are no entries. So there is no cursor to return causing the error. Following is the error from logcat:

I apologize for the seemingly fundamental question as I am a newbie with Android programming. However, I have been stuck at this for a very long time. Can someone please help to resolve this error?
