PER CURIAM

GRANTED. The issue, as stated by petitioner is:

Whether the Superior Court erred in holding for DUI sentencing purposes that the Defendant’s conviction was a first offense in ten years as opposed to a second offense in ten years based upon the defective holding in Commonwealth v. Chichkin, 232 A.3d 959 (Pa. Super. 2020) that acceptance of ARD could not be treated as a prior conviction?

Justice Brobson did not participate in the consideration or decision of this matter.
