COMPLAINT
NOW COMES the Plaintiff, Lee Ann Kunkle, by and through her attorney, Nathan C.
Wolf, Esquire, and files this complaint and avers as follows:
1. Plaintiff is Lee Ann Kunkle, an adult individual residing at 627 Burnt House
Road, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013.
2. Defendant is Jeremy M. Kline, an adult individual residing at 5565 Creek
Road, Shermansdale, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17090.
3. On or about April 2, 1997, plaintiff agreed to co-sign on a loan with the
Pennsylvania State Employees Credit Union (PSECU) for the purchase of a 1990 Nissan
Pathfinder.
4. Plaintiff and defendant each co-signed for the loan from PSECU in the
amount of $11,475.00. A true and correct copy of the draft from PSECU, signed by both
parties, is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "A'.
5. Interest on the loan was charged at a rate of 7.99 percent.
6. In April of 1997, Plaintiff also wrote a check from her line of credit with PNC
Bank in the amount of $2,453.03 for the purchase of the 1990 Nissan Pathfinder for the
defendant. A true and correct copy of the draft from PNC Bank, signed by Plaintiff and
made payable to Auto-Max, is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "B".
(7%).
The interest charged on the line of credit was at a rate of seven percent
8. Plaintiff co-signed and borrowed for funds totaling $13,928.03 for the
purchase of the 1990 Nissan Pathfinder.
9. Since it was purchased, the vehicle has been and continues to be in
possession of the defendant.
10. Defendant agreed to make payments in the amount of $285.00 per month to
the plaintiff to cover the payments on the loans to PSECU and the line of credit from PNC
bank.
11. Defendant made sporadic payments to plaintiff since they reached their
agreement, totaling $2,494.00.
12. Defendant's last payment to plaintiff was in May 2001.
13. Once plaintiff satisfied the lien in favor of PSECU, she received the title to the
vehicle. A true and correct copy of the certificate of title is attached hereto and
incorporated herein as Exhibit "C".
14. Plaintiff has made numerous requests of the defendant to pay the balance
due, and despite the defendant's promises to do so, he has neglected to pay the same or
any part thereof.
15. Plaintiff has, to date, paid a total of $14,989.25 since December of 1997.
16. Plaintiff believes, and therefore avers, that she is owed a total of $12,495.25,
after crediting defendant for the payments made to plaintiff.
17. However, Defendant has acknowledged his obligation on the additional
amounts still owed to plaintiff and has made promises to make payments to plaintiff which
he has not fulfilled.
18. Plaintiff has incurred substantial costs in attempting to recover the amounts
owed to her by defendant.
WHEREFORE, plaintiff, Lee Ann Kunkle, demands that this Honorable Court enter
an order requiring defendant to pay to plaintiff the sum of $12,495.25 for the amounts due
and owing to plaintiff, plus attorneys fees, interest, and the costs of litigation.
