Boardman Co., 11 A.3d 924 (Pa. 2011), our Supreme Court again reaffirmed the Dilliplaine waiver principle, stating “we believe the general requirement that one challenging a civil verdict must raise and preserve challenges at all stages best reconciles with our existing rules and approach to trial and appellate practice.”28 Schmidt, 11 A.3d at 941-942 (emphasis added) (rejecting a futility exemption “that does not require useless objections” in favor of a requirement that potential challenges must be identified early in litigation and at all stages of litigation).
