231 Pa. Code Rule 7.4. Injunctions.

Rule 7.4. Injunctions.

 Upon petition, the court may issue a preliminary, special, or permanent injunction in accordance with the rules and procedures provided in Pa.R.C.P. No. 1531.

   Note

   Rule 7.4 has no counterpart in former Orphans’ Court Rules, but is derived from Pa.R.C.P. No. 1531.

   The filings required by this rule are subject to the Case Records Public Access Policy of the Unified Judicial System of Pennsylvania. See Rule 1.99.

   Explanatory Comment

   With the repeal of 20 Pa.C.S. §  772, the propriety of and procedure for obtaining an injunction in an Orphans’ Court matter was uncertain. This Rule clarifies that an injunction may be requested and issued in this court. The procedure for requesting the issuance of an injunction shall conform to the practice set forth in Pa.R.C.P. No. 1531. The Notes and Explanatory Comments to Pa.R.C.P. No. 1531 are fully incorporated by reference herein.
