Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 28, July 13, 2024
(a)
Time and notice
.-Where
					 under the applicable law the question raised by a petition for review may be
					 determined in whole or in part upon the record before the government unit, the
					 government unit shall file the record with the prothonotary of the court named
					 in the petition for review within 40 days after service upon it of the
					 petition. The court may shorten or extend the time prescribed in this
					 paragraph. The prothonotary shall give notice to all parties of the date on
					 which the record is filed.
(b)
Certificate of record
.-The government unit shall certify the
					 contents of the record and a list of all documents, transcripts of testimony,
					 exhibits and other material comprising the record. The government unit shall
					 (1) arrange the documents to be certified in chronological order, (2) number
					 them, and (3) affix to the right or bottom edge of the first page of each
					 document a tab showing the number of that document. These shall be bound and
					 shall contain a table of contents identifying each document in the record. If
					 any documents or case records were maintained as confidential in the government
					 unit, the list of documents that comprise the record shall specifically
					 identify such documents or the entire record as having been maintained as
					 confidential, and the government unit shall either physically or electronically
					 separate such documents. The certificate shall be made by the head, chairman,
					 deputy, or secretary of the government unit. The government unit may file the
					 entire record or such parts thereof as the parties may designate by stipulation
					 filed with the government unit. The original papers in the government unit or
					 certified copies thereof may be filed.
Instead of filing the record or designated parts thereof,
						the government unit may file a certified list of all documents, transcripts of
						testimony, exhibits, and other material comprising the record, or a certified
						list of such parts thereof as the parties may designate, adequately describing
						each, and the filing of the certified list shall constitute filing of the
						record. If any documents or case records were maintained as confidential in the
						government unit, the list of documents that comprise the record shall
						specifically identify such documents or the entire record as having been
						maintained as confidential. The parties may stipulate that neither the record
						nor a certified list be filed with the court. The stipulation shall be filed
						with the prothonotary of the court, and the date of its filing shall be deemed
						the date on which the record is filed. If a certified list is filed, or if the
						parties designate only parts of the record for filing or stipulate that neither
						the record nor a certified list be filed, the government unit shall retain the
						record or parts thereof. Upon request of the court or the request of a party,
						the record or any part thereof thus retained shall be transmitted to the court
						notwithstanding any prior stipulation. All parts of the record retained by the
						government unit shall be a part of the record on review for all
						purposes.
(c)
Notice
					 to counsel of contents of certified record
.-At the time of
					 transmission of the record to the appellate court, the government unit shall
					 send a copy of the list of the contents of the certified record to all counsel
					 of record, or, if a party is unrepresented by counsel, to that party at the
					 address provided to the government unit.
