motion  for permission to appeal is made and such appeal is dismissed or
motion is denied and, except for time limitations in section 5513,  some

to be taken orders otherwise.

If the attorney for an aggrieved party dies, is removed or suspended, or becomes physically or mentally incapacitated or otherwise disabled before the expiration of the time limited for taking an appeal or moving for permission to appeal without having done so, such appeal may be taken or such motion for permission to appeal may be served within sixty days from the date of death, removal or suspension, or commencement of such incapacity or disability.
