BEFORE: BOWES, STABILE, and MUSMANNO, JJ.

JUDGMENT ORDER BY STABILE, J.:                  FILED NOVEMBER 22, 2016

        Appellant, R.H, appeals from the order entered by the Court of

Common Pleas of Erie County denying her petition for protection from abuse.

Because Appellant (and Appellee D.W.) failed to appear at oral argument

before this Court, we dismiss this appeal. See Pa.R.A.P. 2314.1

        Appeal dismissed.

    Rule 2314, entitled “Non–Appearance of Parties,” reads as follows:

        If appellant or the moving party is not ready to proceed when a
        case is called for oral argument, the matter may be dismissed as
        of course. The court in its discretion may hear a party who is
        ready ex parte; or the court may act in such manner as under
        the circumstances may be deemed to be appropriate.
