PETITION OF: MICHAEL B. SMITH, :

ESQUIRE :

ORDER

PER CURIAM

AND NOW , this 13th day of October, 2017, upon consideration of the Application to Withdraw, it is noted that no Petition for Allowance of Appeal was advanced within the filing period. See Pa.R.A.P. 105(b) (providing that the time period for filing an allocatur petition may not be enlarged). Moreover, there is no other allocatur-related submission before this Court.

As the application is not related to a filing pending in this tribunal, there is no evident jurisdictional basis for its consideration. See Reading Anthracite Co. v. Rich , 577 A.2d 881 (Pa. 1990) (observing that the timeliness of an appeal is jurisdictional). Accordingly, the Application to Withdraw is DISMISSED.
