Rule 301. General rule

Presumptions as they now exist or may be modified by law shall be unaffected by the adoption of these rules.

Comment: Pa.R.E. 301 is similar to F.R.E. 301 in that it does not modify existing law. Pa.R.E. 301 differs from F.R.E. 301 in that this rule does not establish the effect of a presumption on the burden of proof.
