ORDER

PER CURIAM

AND NOW, this 3rd day of October, 2018, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is

GRANTED, LIMITED TO Petitioner’s first issue, edited for clarity as follows:

Is the Commonwealth Court’s order contrary to long-standing
case law from the Commonwealth Court holding that an
employee is not in the course and scope of employment while
traveling between a parking lot and the workplace unless the
employer mandates how an employee commutes to work
and/or where the employee must park his/her vehicle?
The Petition for Allowance of Appeal is DENIED as to all remaining issues.
