Opinion

No. 181 MAL 2009.

November 5, 2009.

Petition No. 181 MAL 2009 for Allowance of Appeal from the Order of the Superior Court.

Prior report: Pa.Super., 966 A.2d 636.


ORDER


AND NOW, this 5th day of November, 2009, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issues, which we have reframed for clarity, are:

1. Whether the burden of persuasion is on the party offering, or the party opposing, a motion to modify an order placing documents under seal?

2. Whether the lower courts erred in denying Petitioner's motion to unseal the records of Respondent's incapacitation hearing?
