ORDER
PER CURIAM
AND NOW, this 1st day of May, 2019, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is
GRANTED, LIMITED TO the issue set forth below. Allocatur is DENIED as to all
remaining issues. The issue, as stated by petitioner, is:
(1) Did the Superior Court err in ruling that the search warrant obtained
to search [Petitioner’s] cell phone was not unconstitutionally
overbroad, under the Pennsylvania Constitution, by allowing an
essentially unlimited search of the device for evidence of illegal
narcotics and firearm possession?
