Pennsylvania Notice to the Bar & Public is a form issued by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court which notifies attorneys and the public of any changes to the rules of civil or criminal procedure. The notice is usually mailed to attorneys and posted on the Supreme Court website. There are two types of Pennsylvania Notice to the Bar & Public: Mandatory Notice and General Notice. Mandatory Notice alerts attorneys and the public of any changes to the rules of civil or criminal procedure that are mandated by the Court. These notices typically include information regarding the effective date of the rule change and any other relevant details. General Notice is a more general notification to attorneys and the public of rule changes that are not mandated by the Court. This type of notice includes information about any proposed changes to the rules, as well as any other relevant information that the Supreme Court believes may be helpful for attorneys and the public. Both types of notices are published on the Supreme Court website and are mailed to all registered attorneys in the state.
