ORDER

PER CURIAM.

AND NOW, this 13th day of March, 2007, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is hereby GRANTED, limited to the following:

Does the Federal Arbitration Act's (FAA's) procedural provision which allows for a three-month time frame within which to challenge an arbitration award preempt the state procedural rule which sets the time limit at thirty days? If not, should *187 Pennsylvania courts apply the state or federal procedures?
