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 23 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“(a) Entry upon docket below. No order shall be appeal-able until it has been entered upon the appropriate docket in the lower court . . . (c) Orders not appealable. A direction by the lower court that a specified judgment, sentence or other order shall be entered, unaccompanied by actual entry of the specified order in the docket, or a direction that a verdict of a jury be recorded or entered, or an order denying a motion for a new trial, does not constitute an appealable order. Any such order shall be reduced to judgment and docket before an appeal is taken.”
2 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“Appeals cannot be taken from a decree nisi. Bogosian v. Foerderer Tract Committee, 264 Pa.Superior Ct. 84, 90, 399 A.2d 408, 410 (1979) .... [Exceptions in equity actions must be filed within ten days of the decree nisi. Pa.R.Civ.P. 1518, 1519 . . . Like other civil cases, upon the dismissal of exceptions, the court shall ‘affirm, modify or change the decree nisi accordingly, or enter any other appropriate order.’ Pa.R.Civ.P. 1519(b) ... if the final decree is not duly entered on the docket, see Pa.R.Civ.P. 1521, it shall be entered upon praecipe of any party. See Pa.R.A.P. 301(d); Pa.R.Civ.P. 237, 1039. We believe that the equity procedures are sufficiently analogous of those in other civil cases, see Pa.R.Civ.P. 1501 and Explanatory Note to Pa.R.Civ.P. 227.1 to require that a final decree be entered on the docket as a condition precedent to appeal. See Mercadante v. Ranieli, 271 Pa.Superior Ct. 563, 414 A.2d 397 (1979).”
