ORDER

PER CURIAM

AND NOW, this 27th day of June, 2022, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is

GRANTED. The issue, as stated by petitioner, is:

Whether the Superior Court of Pennsylvania, by extending the holdings in controlling authority, erred in holding that a non-licensed host who invites guests to an event for purposes that are not purely social, and requires those who wish to attend to pay a fee in exchange for alcohol that will be provided on a self-serve-drink all you want basis, is not liable to an innocent third party who is injured as the result of a guest who left the event and was provided alcohol while visibly intoxicated during the event?
