And Now, this 29th day of November, 2018, the Court having provided to the Administrative Office of Pennsylvania Courts (''AOPC'') on or about August 27, 2018 a list of all ''Active'' Incapacitated Cases for further tracking in the Guardianship Tracking System (''GTS''), it now appearing that there remain legacy Incapacitated Cases within the Case Management System (''CMS'') used by Clerk of the Orphans' Court (''Clerk'') which are cases with no docket activity for over ten (10) years and which do not contain all required information to enable the Court to determine whether these legacy Incapacitated Cases are ''Active'' or ''Inactive,'' the Clerk is directed to mark as ''Deferred'' all legacy Incapacitated Cases lacking any of the following data-fields in the CMS:

 (4) Name of Guardian(s)

 (5) Date Guardian(s) Appointed

 Thereafter, the Court shall review each Deferred legacy Incapacitated Case to determine whether the case is still Active, and shall take required dispositive action to mark the case ''Active'' or ''Closed.''

 This Order shall be filed with the Office of Judicial Records in a docket maintained for Orders issued by the First Judicial District of Pennsylvania and shall be published in The Legal Intelligencer, and will be posted on the First Judicial District's website at http://www.courts.phila.gov. One certified copy of this Order shall be filed with the Administrative Office of Pennsylvania Courts; two certified copies of this Order, and a copy on a computer diskette, shall be distributed to the Legislative Reference Bureau for publication in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.
