Notes of Decisions

   Dependency

   Considering enormous implications of a dependency finding, such a determination can only be made in compliance with statutory requirements regarding dependency determinations and cannot be made by a trial court sua sponte without a petition for dependency having been filed. Fallaro v. Yeager, 528 A.2d 222 (Pa. Super. 1987).
