Opinion

Per Curiam

Petitioner herein requests this court to appoint the Honorable Robert S.

This court is without authority to appoint either an amicus curiae or a Special Judge as requested in the petition herein. Therefore, such petition must be dismissed for want of jurisdiction of the subject-matter.
