(a) Matters heard solely on certified record. An appeal from a court of common pleas and each other matter which under the applicable law is required to be determined by the Court upon the record before the government unit below shall be eligible for listing for argument after the record has been filed. When all briefs and reproduced records have been filed, the Prothonotary shall list the matter for oral argument on a specified date and shall give at least ten days written notice by first class mail to all parties of the date scheduled for the argument. The Court may direct any matter to be submitted on briefs without oral argument.

A matter commenced in whole or in part within the original jurisdiction of the Court including matters under Pa.R.A.P. 1571 (determinations of the Board of Finance and Revenue) when at issue for argument on preliminary matters or after the record has been made may be listed for oral argument after the Court establishes a briefing schedule.

(c) Extensions of time to file briefs or reproduced record. A party may submit a written request for an extension of time to file briefs or the reproduced record, which the Prothonotary may grant, if the requested extension is:

(1) for thirty days or less;

(2) the first one sought; and

(3) unopposed by all other parties. If any of the three enumerated criteria do not exist, the party must submit its extension request by formal application. The Prothonotary or Chief Legal Counsel may act on the formal application.
