Rule 1920.73 - PRAECIPE TO TRANSMIT RECORD(a) The Praecipe to Transmit Record shall follow the form set forth in Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure 1920.73(b).(b) If the parties have dependent children 18 years or under, a copy of the parties' completion certification form or waiver of the "Children Cope with Divorce" program may be attached to the Praecipe to Transmit Divorce, if completed by the parties. Although, in accordance with 23 Pa. C.S. § 5332, the Court may require the parties to attend the program, the failure of a party to attend the program shall not impede the transmittal of the record. As such, upon proper praecipe, a final decree may be issued even if one or both parties have not attended the Children Cope with Divorce" program. Notwithstanding the above, parties who are otherwise obliged to attend the program by Court Order, must still attend the program.Amended effective 7/1/2020; amended effective 8/1/2022.
