ORDER
PER CURIAM
AND NOW, this 10th day of August, 2022, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is
GRANTED. The issues, as stated by petitioners are:
a. Whether quasi-judicial immunity applies to a guardian ad litem is an issue of first impression and implicates a matter of public importance that requires prompt and definitive resolution by this Court.
b. This Court’s exercise of its discretionary jurisdiction is necessary because the Superior Court egregiously departed from accepted judicial practices when it concluded that Pennsylvania’s intermediate courts are without authority to pass on questions involving policy considerations.
