Pennsylvania Request for Judge Assignment is a document that a party in a civil or criminal case can file in order to request that a particular judge be assigned to their case. The request must be filed by the party and approved by the court. Depending on the particular county, there are different types of request for judge assignment in Pennsylvania. In Allegheny County, the request must be made in writing and filed with the Prothonotary's Office. The request contains the party's name, the names of the attorneys, the case number, and the name of the judge requested. In Philadelphia County, the request is made using a form available from the Prothonotary's Office. The form contains the party's name, the names of the attorneys, the case number, and the name of the judge requested. In Montgomery County, the request is made using a form available from the Clerk of Courts Office. The form contains the same information as the Allegheny and Philadelphia County forms. In Delaware County, the request is made using a motion filed with the Prothonotary's Office. The motion contains the same information as the Allegheny and Philadelphia County forms. In all counties in Pennsylvania, the request must be accompanied by a brief explanation of why the party is requesting a specific judge. The request is then considered by the court. If approved, the assigned judge will hear the case.
