GALLAGHER v. LIQUOR CONTROL BD., 580 Pa. 353 (2004)

861 A.2d 257

John GALLAGHER, Respondent v. PENNSYLVANIA LIQUOR CONTROL BOARD, World Transportation, Inc., Envoy Warehouse, Inc. and Trans Freight Systems, Inc., Petition of Trans Freight Systems, Inc.

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, Eastern District.
October 6, 2004.

Petition No. 625 EAL 2003 for Allowance of Appeal from the Order of the Superior Court.

ORDER
PER CURIAM.

AND NOW, this 6th day of October, 2004, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is hereby granted, limited to the following issue:

Page 354

Applying the standards for appellate review set forth in Harman v. Borah, 562 Pa. 455, 756 A.2d 1116
(2000), and considering the scope of a trial court’s discretion under the Pennsylvania Rules of Evidence, did the Superior Court err in reversing the trial court’s denial of Gallagher’s motion for a new trial based on its conclusion that the collateral source rule had been violated and without consideration of actual prejudice, when the evidence of payments from a collateral source was relevant to the jury’s determination as to which of two defendants was Gallagher’s employer and the trial court gave a cautionary instruction to the jury that the evidence should be used only for that limited purpose.
