ORDER

PER CURIAM AND NOW, this 3rd day of November, 2020, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issues, as stated by Petitioners, are:

.(1) Did the Superior Court err as a matter of law in finding that the Decedent was not a resident of her parents’ household at the time of her death even though she was listed as a “household driver” on the household insurance policy, a premium was charged, and the facts overwhelmingly establish she was also a “resident” of the household at the time of her death?

(2) Did the Superior Court err as a matter of law in finding that the Decedent was not a “designated insured” entitled to stacking even though the Decedent was listed on her parents’ policy as a “driver and household resident” and premiums were charged up through and until the time of her tragic death?
