PER CURIAM
  
  .
 

  AND NOW, this 22
  
   nd
  
  day of May, 2018, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issue, as stated by Petitioner, is:
 

  Whether, in order to comply with
  
   Miller
  
  and its progeny, a court sentencing a juvenile defendant for a crime for which life without parole is an available sentence must review and consider on the record the
  
   Miller
  
  factors adopted by this Court in
  
   Batts I,
  
  regardless whether the defendant is ultimately sentenced to life without parole.
