    COMMONWEALTH of Pennsylvania, Respondent v. Frank ADAMS, Petitioner
    No. 239 EAL 2017
    Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.
    November 20, 2017
   ORDER

PER CURIAM

AND NOW, this 20th day of November, 2017, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issue, as phrased by Petitioner, is:

Was it not error for the Superior Court automatically to dismiss petitioner’s appeal without a merits review when this Court’s consistent jurisprudence allows exceptions to a forfeiture determination and petitioner’s circumstances track those exceptions?
