Rule 3260 Objection to sheriff’s determination

If you disagree with the sheriff's decision about who owns a property in a legal case, you can formally object. You do this by filing a written objection with the prothonotary, which is the court clerk who handles civil case records.

The objection form is simple. It asks for the date and requires a signature from the person objecting, their attorney, or their agent. Filing this form puts your disagreement on the official court record.
