PER CURIAM

      AND NOW, this 5th day of December, 2018, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal

is GRANTED. The issue, rephrased for clarity, is:

             Did the Superior Court erroneously interpret 75 Pa.C.S. §
             3806 as providing that an offender who commits a prior driving
             under the influence (“DUI”) offense more than ten years
             before his commission of a present DUI offense, but is
             convicted of the prior DUI offense within ten years of his
             commission of his present DUI offense, has a “prior offense”
             for purposes of the grading of, and/or sentencing on, the
             present DUI offense?
