    32 A.3d 1259
    COMMONWEALTH of Pennsylvania, Respondent v. James Monroe BALDWIN, Petitioner.
    Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.
    Dec. 5, 2011.
    No. 636 WAL 2010.
   ORDER

PER CURIAM.

AND NOW, this 5th day of December, 2011, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issue, as stated by Petitioner, is:

Whether the test employed in United States v. Peterson, 233 F.3d 101 (1st Cir.2000), adopted by the Superior Court in this case, to be utilized when a criminal defendant seeks to testify after the close of evidence, is an unconstitutional burden on a citizen’s fundamental right to testify in his own defense?

Justice ORIE MELVIN did not participate in the consideration or decision of this matter.
