PER CURIAM DECIDED: June 22, 2021 AND NOW, this 22nd day of June, 2021, the order of the Commonwealth Court is

REVERSED and the matter is REMANDED to that court for consideration of remaining

unaddressed claims. See Commonwealth v. Lacombe, 234 A.3d 602 (Pa. 2020) (holding

Subchapter I of Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act, 42 Pa.C.S. §§9799.51-

9799.75, does not constitute criminal punishment and therefore does not violate

constitutional prohibition against ex post facto laws). See also Commonwealth v. Butler,

226 A.3d 972, 993 (Pa. 2020) (court on remand to consider remaining claims not addressed). The Motion to Strike Portions of Designated-Appellant’s Brief and the
