About

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court adopted Pa. R. Evid 413, a rule that presumptively excludes evidence of immigration status from court proceedings. Effective October 1, 2021, the Rule allows a court to hear such evidence only in exceptional circumstances, and only after following stringent procedures to ensure that, when immigration status is not relevant to the case, it is not considered. The Court adopted Rule 413 in response to advocacy by multiple groups, including the Interbranch Commission for Gender, Racial and Ethnic Fairness. 
 
Now that the rule has been in effect for a couple of years, we would like to put together a roundtable of attorneys from different practice areas to talk about the practical application of this rule.
