Annex A

TITLE 231. RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE

PART II. ORPHANS' COURT RULES

RULE 1: JUDGES—LOCAL RULES

Rule 1.3. Forms.

*  *  *  *  *

 Committee Comment—2006: A number of forms previously recommended by the Committee for use before the Register of Wills, but not formally adopted by the Court, had appeared following Rule 10.1. Most of those forms have now been consolidated or revised and set forth in the Appendix hereto. However, certain forms have been deleted because they are properly generated by the Register of Wills rather than counsel. The forms formerly set forth in the body of Rules 5.7, 6.12[.], 14.5, 16.11 and 16.12, some with minor revisions, have been moved to the Appendix as well. In addition, a number of new forms for use in the Orphans' Court have been adopted by the Court. The current website for electronic access to the forms is found at [http://www.aopc.org./Index/Forms/IndexForms. asp] www.pacourts.us/Forms/OrphansCourtForms. htm. The forms posted on the website are capable of on-line completion.
