ORDER

PER CURIAM

AND NOW, this 16th day of March, 2022, upon consideration of the abovecaptioned legislative reapportionment appeals filed pursuant to PA. CONST. art. II, § 17(d) 

(indicating that “[a]ny aggrieved person may file an appeal from the final plan [of the 2021 

Pennsylvania Legislative Reapportionment Commission] directly to the Supreme Court”), 

this Court finds that the Final Reapportionment Plan of the Pennsylvania Legislative 

Reapportionment Commission filed on February 4, 2022, is in compliance with the 

mandates of the Pennsylvania Constitution and the United States Constitution and is not 

contrary to law, and, therefore, shall have the force of law. See PA. CONST. art. II, § 17(d) 

& (e) (specifying that “[i]f the appellant establishes that the final plan is contrary to law, 

the Supreme Court shall issue an order remanding the plan to the commission” and that 

“[w]hen the Supreme Court has finally decided an appeal...the reapportionment plan shall 

have the force of law...”). Further, it is hereby ordered that said Plan shall be used in all 

forthcoming elections to the General Assembly until the next constitutionally-mandated 

reapportionment shall be approved. 

All outstanding motions filed in the above-captioned matters are hereby 

DISMISSED.

This Court’s February 23, 2022 Order, at Judicial Administration Docket No. 569, 

which temporarily suspended the General Primary Election calendar relative to elections

for seats in the General Assembly, is VACATED. Our adjustment to that calendar is 

resolved by separate order at that docket number and entered today.

Jurisdiction relinquished.
