   ORDER

PER CURIAM.

AND NOW, this 19th day of September, 2002, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is granted, limited to

Whether the jury’s guilty verdict is vitiated and non-existent due to the trial court’s failure to instruct the jury on the beyond-a-reasonable-doubt standard of proof required by the corpus delicti rule, and whether Petitioner’s petition for post conviction collateral relief is time-barred by the provisions of 42 Pa.C.S. § 9545(b)(1).
