Rule 2972.Successive Actions.

Some instruments give the holder two remedies: a confessed judgment for money and a confessed judgment in ejectment for possession of real property. This rule keeps the first from cutting off the second. Entering judgment for money does not prevent entry of judgment in ejectment.

Rule 2953(b) supplies the converse in the money chapter: a judgment in ejectment does not prevent a money judgment. Each judgment then follows its own enforcement path, the money judgment under Rule 2956.1 and the possession judgment under Rule 2973.1. The Official Note leaves to substantive law the limits on what the plaintiff may collect under one or both judgments.
