Rule 2314. Non-appearance of Parties.

If appellant or the moving party is not ready to proceed when a case is called for oral argument, the matter may be dismissed as of course. The court in its discretion may hear a party who is ready ex parte; or the court may act in such manner as under the circumstances may be deemed to be appropriate.

   Official Note
   Based on former Supreme Court Rule 30, former Superior Court Rule 22 and former Commonwealth Court Rule 72, without change in substance. Where appellant is not ready to proceed at argument and has filed no brief, the appeal will be dismissed as of course. In re Ray’s Estate, 281 Pa. 297, 126 Atl. 751 (1924). See Rule 2188 (consequence of failure to file briefs and reproduced records).
