§ 23.55. Cross reference to units within sections.

 (a)  References to units within another section.—When reference is made to units contained in another section, the reference is denominated as a reference to the ‘‘section’’ although the citation specifies a subordinate unit within the section. Thus, a reference made to subclause (I) of clause (C) of subparagraph (i) of paragraph (1) of subsection (b) of 15 Pa.C.S. §  7313 (relating to corporate name) should be in the following forms:

   section 7313(b)(1)(i)(C)(I) (relating to notice of intention to appropriate corporate name).

   15 Pa.C.S. §  7313(b)(1)(i)(C)(I) (relating to notice of intention to appropriate corporate name).

 (b)  References to units within same section.—When reference is made to units contained in the same section, the reference is denominated as a reference to the unit.

   (1)  When the reference is to another subordinate unit within a subsection or other subordinate unit, the reference is made with respect to the highest unit cited in the reference. The following is exemplary:

     paragraph (1).

     paragraph (1)(i).

     paragraph (1)(i)(A).

     paragraph (1)(i)(A)(I).

     subparagraph (i).

     subparagraph (i)(A).

     subparagraph (i)(A)(I).

     clause (A).

     clause (A)(I).

     subclause (I).

   (2)  When the reference is to a unit within another subsection of the section, the reference is made with respect to the subsection. The following is exemplary:

   subsection (a).

   subsection (a)(1).

   subsection (a)(1)(i).

   subsection (a)(1)(i)(A).

   subsection (a)(1)(i)(A)(I).
