                                                :
                     Respondent                 :
                                                : Petition for Allowance of Appeal
                                                : from the Order of the Superior Court
              v.                                :

                     Petitioner                 :

                                       ORDER

PER CURIAM

      AND NOW, this 20th day of November, 2023, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal

is GRANTED. The issue, as stated by petitioner, is:

      (1)    In an issue of substantial public importance and first impression with this
             Honorable Court, what constitutes "substantial force to overcome the
             resistance" under the Resisting Arrest statute, because the Superior Court's
             decisions interpreting this language are manifestly inconsistent and
             unpredictable?
