Official Note
This rule and Rules 10171020 provide a system for reconsideration in the court of common pleas of orders and determinations of magisterial district judges dealing with execution matters, and abandonment of manufactured homes.
Under subdivision B of this rule, the statement of objection must be filed within ten days after the date of the questioned order or determination. The time limit for filing a statement of objection need not be the same as that for filing a notice of appeal from a judgment.
