ORDER
PER CURIAM.
AND NOW, this 19th day of September, 2017, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issue presented by Petitioner and rephrased for clarity is:
Whether a defendant's assertion of innocence based on the sufficiency of the evidence and his inability to reconcile entering a plea when
he maintained his innocence well before the time of his sentencing and when the Commonwealth made no argument of prejudice, is sufficient to establish a fair and just reason for withdrawing his plea of nolo contendere?
