PER CURIAM

      AND NOW, this 12th day of April, 2021, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is

GRANTED. The issues, as stated by petitioner are:

      (1)    Did the Superior Court err in determining that [Respondent] was not
      required to register under SORNA even though he was already required to
      register for life in New York and relocated to Pennsylvania after the effective
      date of SORNA?

      (2)    Did the Superior Court err in finding an ex post facto violation even
      though [Respondent] was not disadvantaged any more than his lifetime
      registration he was already subject to under New York law?
