ORDER

PER CURIAM:

AND NOW, this 23rd day of January, 2015, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The order of the Superior Court is VACATED, in light of its failure to credit the trial court’s factual findings, which are supported by the record. See Fizzano Brothers Concrete Products, Inc. v. XLN, Inc., 42 A.3d 951, 970-74 (Pa. 2012). The case is REMANDED to the Superior Court for consideration of the other issues not addressed in respondent’s original appeal. Jurisdiction relinquished.
