Rule 103

The Supreme Court declares that it has inherent and exclusive power to regulate the admission to the bar and the practice of law and in furtherance thereof promulgates these rules which shall supersede all other court rules (except the Enforcement Rules) and practices pertaining to the admission to the bar and the practice of law.

Note: Patterned after Pa.R.D.E 103. The exclusive power of the Supreme Court to regulate admission to the bar and the practice of law is set forth in Section 10(c) of Article V of the Constitution of Pennsylvania and in 42 Pa.C.S. § 1722(a)(1) (relating to the adoption of administrative and procedural rules).
