COMMONWEALTH of Pennsylvania, Respondent v. Jon Eric SHAFFER, Petitioner
    No. 15 WAL 2018
    Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.
    July 2, 2018
    ORDER
   PER CURIAM.

AND NOW, this 2nd day of July, 2018, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issue, truncated and slightly rephrased, is:

Does an individual give up his expectation of privacy in the closed private files stored on his computer, merely by taking his computer to a commercial establishment for service or repair, where the service or repair requested does not render the viewing of the citizen[']s closed private files as foreseeable to either the customer or the computer technician?
