Opinion

ORDER

PER CURIAM.

AND NOW, this 31st day of October, 2007, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issue, as stated by petitioner, is:

Whether the Superior Court erred as a matter of law in holding that the attorney-client privilege did not apply to a confidential memorandum written by Petitioners’ in-house senior counsel to its senior executives and attorneys which related to pending and future litigation and reflects confidential information previously shared by the client with the attorney, as well as the attorney’s legal advice?

The Petition for Review in the Nature of Mandamus is DENIED.
