Lancaster Cnty. C.P. Judge Leonard G. Brown III - Judge's Procedures 19
Unavailability of Witnesses
If a witness is unavailable at the time of trial, as defined in Pa.R.C.P. 4017 and 4020, the
court expects an oral or videotaped deposition to be used at trial for that witness, whether
the witness is a party, a non-party, or an expert. The unavailability of such witness will
not be a ground to delay the commencement or progress of trial.
