PER CURIAM

AND NOW, this 18th day of January, 2017, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is hereby GRANTED, LIMITED TO the following issue as framed by Petitioner:

The Petition is otherwise DENIED. The order of the Superior Court affirming Petitioner’s judgment of sentence is VACATED, and the ease is REMANDED to the Superior Court for further consideration in light of Birchfield v. North Dakota, 136 S.Ct. 2160 (2016). Jurisdiction relinquished.
