New Research Guide Available Now: Pennsylvania Appellate Law & Practice

Those looking to appeal a case to the Pennsylvania Commonwealth, Superior, or Supreme Courts may find themselves asking the questions: Who has the right to appeal?; Where should I appeal to?; How long do I have to appeal?; What orders/decisions/opinions can be appealed?; and How do I appeal?

Key treatises and form sets highlighted in the guide include Dunlap-Hanna Pennsylvania Forms, Pennsylvania Appellate Practice (also referred to as Darlington), Pennsylvania Law Encyclopedia, Standard Pennsylvania Practice, and West's Pennsylvania Forms.
