ORDER

PER CURIAM AND NOW, this 15th day of February, 2023, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED. The issues, as stated by Petitioner, are:

(1) Did the Commonwealth Court impermissibly expand the holdings in Duffey v. WCAB (Trola-Dyne, Inc.), 152 A.3d 984 (Pa. 2017) . . . as to usurp the authority of the Workers’ Compensation Judge to determine the nature and extent of the compensable injury?

(2) Did the Commonwealth Court err in reversing the Workers’ Compensation Appeal Board by substituting [its] assessment of the credible testimony for that of the fact finder?
