This chapter provides a petition procedure for appellate review of certain discrete issues. Generally, these matters are ancillary and/or preliminary to appellate review under Chapters 9, 11, 13, or 15, but the chapter also is intended to provide the method for initiating any otherwise-authorized form of appellate review that does not fall within those chapters.
The procedure applicable under this chapter is provided in Pa.R.A.P. 1602-1605, unless otherwise prescribed by statute or rule relating to a particular category of petition for specialized review.
