2010 Pennsylvania Code
Title 23 - DOMESTIC RELATIONS
Chapter 27 - Petition for Adoption
2714 - When consent of parent not required.

     § 2714.  When consent of parent not required.
        Consent of a parent to adoption shall not be required if a
     decree of termination with regard to such parent has been
     entered. When parental rights have not previously been
     terminated, the court may find that consent of a parent of the
     adoptee is not required if, after notice and hearing as
     prescribed in section 2513 (relating to hearing), the court
     finds that grounds exist for involuntary termination under
     section 2511 (relating to grounds for involuntary termination).
