ROTHROCK v. ROTHROCK MOTOR SALES

PER CURIAM

AND NOW, the 2nd day of October, 2003, the above-listed petition for allowance of appeal is GRANTED. The parties are directed to address the following questions:

1) Whether the Superior Court erred in crating a new exception to the at-will employment doctrine.

2) Whether the Superior Court erred in retroactively applying Shick v. Shirey, 716 A.2d 1231 (Pa. 1998) to this matter. In addressing this issue, the parties are directed to consider what effect, if any, Harper v. Virginia Dept. of Taxation, 509 U.S. 86 (1993) has on our line of cases arising out of Schreiber v. Republic Inermodal Corp., 375 A.2d 1285 (Pa 1977).
