Rule 803. Entitlement of Complaint.

 The complaint in an action before a magisterial district judge to which a minor is a party shall be entitled in the name of the minor, without reference to the party’s minority or any guardian. The minor shall be designated by the initials of his or her first and last name.

   Official Note

   The complaint will be entitled in the name of the minor, whether plaintiff or defendant. However, the minor shall be designated by the initials of his or her first and last name. If a guardian does represent the minor, this will be reflected by a notice of intent to represent attached to the complaint form as required by Rule 805B.

   The filings required by this rule are subject to the Case Records Public Access Policy of the Unified Judicial System of Pennsylvania. See Rule 217.
