ORDER
PER CURIAM
AND NOW, this 27th day of June, 2019, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is
GRANTED. The issue, as stated by petitioners, is:
Whether the Superior Court improperly held that a strict
liability standard applies to a claim under the “catch-all”
provision of the Pennsylvania Unfair Trade Practices and
Consumer Protection Law, 73 P.S. §§ 201-1 et seq as
amended in 1996, even though the provision expressly
requires proof of “fraudulent or deceptive conduct.”
The Application for Leave to File Statement in Support of Petition for Allowance of Appeal
is DENIED as moot.
