Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Issues not raised in the lower court are waived and cannot be raised for the first time on appeal.” Pa.R.A.P. 302(a). This requirement bars an appellant from raising “a new and different theory of relief’ for the first time on appeal. Commonwealth v. York, 319 Pa.Super. 13 , 465 A.2d 1028, 1032 (1983). In addition, our Supreme Court has made it clear that “[a]ny issues not raised in a [Rule] 1925(b) [Statement will be deemed waived.” Commonwealth v. Castillo, 585 Pa. 395 , 888 A.2d 775, 780 (2005) (citation and quotation omitted). See also Pa.R.A.P. 1925(b)(4)(h) (“The [1925(b) ] Statement shall concisely identify each ruling or error that the appellant intends to challenge with sufficient detail to identify all pertinent issues for the judge”).”
