Appellant, William J. Lynn, appeals from the judgment of sentence of 3 – 6 years’ incarceration, imposed following his conviction for endangering the welfare of children (EWOC).1

The instant case is on remand from our Supreme Court, see Commonwealth v. Lynn, 114 A.3d 796 (Pa. 2015), for consideration of issues originally raised but not decided by our Court, see Commonwealth v. Lynn, 83 A.3d 434 (Pa. Super. 2013). After careful review, we conclude that the trial court abused its discretion by admitting a high volume of unfairly prejudicial other-acts evidence and, on that basis, we vacate Appellant’s judgment of sentence and remand for a new trial.
