The issue, rephrased for clarity, is: Whether, in an issue of statewide importance, the Commonwealth Court erred when it disregarded this Court’s express direction to apply a “highly deferential” standard of review and, substituting its judgment for that of the trial court, overturned an emergency preliminary injunction—entered on a record not yet fully developed—on the grounds that there was insufficient evidence of irreparable harm, where the harm to the local community when Appellees closed their only local hospital was stipulated in the parties’ contract, proven by the testimony of record, and palpable on the face of the record? [299 MAL 2023 and 300 MAL 2023] - 2
