Rule: 1014

Jurisdiction: PA

Bluebook Citation: Pa.R.C.P.M.D.J. 1014

A. If the court of common pleas finds in favor of the party obtaining the writ, it shall enter an order that the judgment is set aside without prejudice to the cause of action. B. If the court of common pleas finds against the party obtaining the writ, it shall enter an order that the writ is dismissed. Official Note Subdivision A states the rule that if the court finds in favor of the party obtaining the writ, it merely sets the judgment below aside without prejudice to the cause of action. The grounds for certiorari do not go to the merits of the case but only to matters that usually can be cured by later selecting a proper tribunal. See Statler v. Alexander Film Co. , 21 D & C 512 (1934). Subdivision B provides for dismissal of the writ if the finding is against the party obtaining it. This leaves the judgment below in full force and effect. See Rule 1013C. B. If the court of common pleas finds against the party obtaining the writ, it shall enter an order that the writ is dismissed.
