Rule 301. Presumptions.

 Presumptions as they now exist or may be modified by law shall be unaffected by the adoption of these rules.

Comment

   Pa.R.E. 301 is similar to F.R.E. 301 in that it does not modify existing law. Pa.R.E. 301 differs from F.R.E. 301 in that this rule does not establish the effect of a presumption on the burden of proof.
