GUA~R,ANTOR: RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE - CONFESSION OF JUDGMENT Rule 2959. Striking Off or Opening Judgment; Pleadings; Procedure (a)(l) Relief from a judgment by confession shall be sought by petition. Except as provided in subparagraph (2), all grounds for relief whether to strike offthe judgment or to open it must be asserted in a single petition. The petition may be filed in the county in which the judgment was originally entered, in any county to which the judgment has been transferred or in any other county in which the sheriff has received a writ of execution directed to the sheriff to enforce the judgment. (2) The ground that the waiver of the due process rights of notice and hearing was not voluntary, intelligent and knowing shall be raised only (i) in support ora further request for a stay ofexecution where the court has not stayed execution despite the timely filing of a petition for relief from the judgment and the presentation of prima facie evidence of a defense; and (ii) as provided by Rule 2958.3 or Rule 2973.3. (3) If written notice is served upon the petitioner pursuant to Rule 2956.1(c)(2) or Rule 2973.1 (c), tile petition shall be filed within thirty days after such service. Unless the defendant can demonstrate that there were compelling reasons for the delay, a petition not timely filed shall be denied. (b) If the Petition states prima facie grounds for relief and the court shall issue a rule to show cause and may grant a stay of proceedings. After being served with a copy of the petition the plaintiffshall file an answer on or before the return day of the rule. The return day of the rule shall be fixed by the court by local rule or special order. (c) A party waives all defenses and objections which are not included in the petition or answer. (d) The petition and the rule to sow cause and the answer shall be served as provided in Rule 440. (e) The court shall dispose of the rule on petition and answer, and on any testimony, depositions, admissions and other evidence. The court for cause shown may stay proceedings on the petition insofar as it seeks to open the judgment pending disposition of the application to strike offthe judgment. If evidence is produced which in a jury trial would require the issues to be submitted to the jury the court shall open the judgment. (f) The lien of the judgment or of any levy or attachment shall be preserved while the proceedings to strike off or open the judgment are pending. Adopted June 27, 1969, effective Jan. 1, 1970. Amended Oct. 4, 1973, effective Dec. 1, 1973; Nov. 14, 1978, effective Dec. 2, 1978; Dec. 14, 1979, effective Feb. 1, 1980; June 20, 1985, effective Jan. 1, 1986; April 1, 1996, effective July 1, 1996. Explanatory Comment - 1979 Amendment to Rule 2959(a). The Act of March 27, 1945, P.L. 83, as amended, 12 P.S. §§913,914 provided that if a confessed judgment is transferred to another county or if a writ of execution upon it is direct4ed to another county, the defendant has the option to petition to open either in the county where the judgment was originally entered or in the county to which it was transferred or to which the execution was directed. This Act is repealed by JARA. Subdivision (a) of Rule 2950 has been amended to continue the procedure. The scope of the repealed Act is enlarged by granting optional venue in the case ora petition to strike the judgment as well as petitions to open. This consisted with subdivision (a) of Rule 2959 which requires all grounds for relief, whether to open or to strike, to be raised at one time. To prevent bifurcation of the proceedings, the optional venue must be extended to both forms of relief. EXHIBIT "B" A petition to strike must assert defects appearing on the record. If the judgment debtor should seek to strike the judgment in an outside county, examination of the record of the original confession may be essential. For this purpose, the judgment debtor can, under the authority of Rule 3002(c), file in the outside county a certified copy of all or any part of the record, testimony or exhibits in the original action. New Rule 295909. An order of court opening a judgment does not impair the lien of the judgment or of any execution issued on it, although the court may stay the execution pending final disposition of the proceeding. 7 Stand. Pa. Prac. 172, 174 §§ 138, 142. To the contrary an order of court striking a judgment annuls the lien of the judgment or of any execution issued on it. 7 Stand. Pa. Prac. 244 §§ 223, 224. However, the mere filing ora petition to open or strike a judgmant does not affect the lira of the judgment or of any execution, subject, of course, to the power of the court to stay execution pending decision on the petition. Subdivision (f) has been added to Rule 2959 to restate this principal. Section 1722(b) of the Judicial Code authorizes the Supreme Court to promulgate general roles on the subject of liens and their extent where not already governed by Act of Assembly. In the absence of such general rules, present practice shall continue. The rarely used Act of July 9, 1897, P.L. 237, 12 P.S. § 911, created a special remedy under which a creditor of a judgment debtor might attack a judgment confessed by that debtor in favor of another creditor on a sowing of invalidity or fraud, and the filing ora bond to protect the judgment plaintiff. The Act preserved the lien of any levy which had been made pending termination of the proceedings. The Act was suspended in 1969 by Rule 2975(3) [rescinded] with respect to confessed judgments, except insofar as it preserved the lien, and it has been repealed by JARA. Explanatory Comment - 1996 The rules of civil procedure governing confession of judgment for money have been revised in two major respects: the abolition of confession ofjudgment in a consumer credit transaction and the imposition of a requirement of notice prior to or with execution upon a confessed judgment. 1~ Notice The provisions for notice are intended to aid the bench and bar in complying with Jordan v. Fox, Rothschild, 0 'Brien & Frankel, 20 F.3d 1250 (C.A.3 1994). The significance of the opinion was stated by Judge R. Stanton Wettick, Jr. in S & T Bank v. Coyne, No. GD 94-12141 (Allegheny County, August 1 l, 1994): The Jordan opinion is significant only because the judgment creditor and its attorneys are now also subject to a § 1983 claim by ajudgmant debtor who did not waive its constitutional rights to notice and a hearing. New rules have been promulgated to provide for notice to be served upon the defendant in most cases prior to or during execution on a judgment entered by confession. There are three notices but only one need be given in a particular case. Under new rule 2959(a)(3), a defendant must file a petition within thirty days of service of the notice to obtain relief from the judgment or to prevent execution. After thirty days, the defendant is barred from relief unless there are "compelling reasons for the delay". The intent of these roles is to limit the necessity for hearings on issues of due process and waiver by providing the defendant with a pre-deprivation notice and opportunity for hearing on the merits. However, new Rule 2959(a)(2) specifies three instances when the issue of the voluntary, intelligent and knowing waiver of due process rights may be raised. The first is in support ora request for a stay when the court ha already denied a prior request for a stay despite timely filing of that request and "the presentation of prima facie evidence of a defense". The second is when personal property has been levied upon or attached without prior notice and hearing under new Rule 2958.2. The third is when a defendant in possession of leased residential real property has been evicted without prior notice and hearing under new Rule 2973.3. In all other instances, the issues upon a petition for relief from the judgment will be the merits and not the waiver of due process rights. - 2 - MANUFACTURES AND TRADERS TRUST COMPANY, Successor by Merger to PENNSYLVANIA NATIONAL BANK & TRUST COMPANY, Plaintiff VS.
