PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO COMPEL
ANSWERS TO INTERROGATORIES
ANDNOW, comes the Plaintiff, Myra L. McWilliams, f/k/aMyraL. Winslow, by and through
her attorneys, MARTSON DEARDORFF WILLIAMS & OTTO, and in support of her Motion to
Compel Answers to Interrogatories and Request for Production of Documents, avers as follows:
Plaintiffis Myra L. McWilliams, f/k/aMyraL. Winslow ("Wife"), who currentlyresides
at 207 Jody Drive, York, PA 17402.
2. Defendant is Robert T. Winslow ("Husband'), who currently resides at 905 Manor Road,
Windsor, PA 17366.
The parties hereto are spouses, having been married on January 17, 1985.
4. On October 17, 2002, Plaintiff filed a Complaint in Divorce against Defendant requesting
equitable distribution of marital property.
In order to develop the economic claims properly, Interrogatories and Request for
Production ofDocuments were filed and served on Defendant on May 22, 2006. A true and correct copy
ofthe transmittal letter serving said Interrogatories and Request forProduction ofDocuments is attached
hereto as Exhibit "A."
6. Plaintiffs Interrogatories were served in accordance with Pa. R.C.P. 1920.22 (b), and
were to be answered within thirty (30) days.
Despite another attemptby letter dated June 26, 2006, (a copy ofwhich is attached hereto
as Exhibit` &), to Defendant to request his discoveryresponses, the responseshave not been received and
is now more than thirty (30) days since the Interrogatories and Request for Production ofDocuments were
served.
Defendant's responses to Plaintiff's discovery requests are essential to the proper
development and presentation of Plaintiff's case. Without said responses, Plaintiff's case is unduly
prejudiced.
9. Defendant has no phone and cannot be reached except by mail.
10. The Defendant has raised no objections in lieu of answers.
11. The Defendant's conduct has been totally unjustified and dilatory, and has required this
Motion to be filed.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Court enter an Order compelling the
Defendant to answer Plaintiff s Interrogatories and produce all ofthe documents requested in Plaintiff s
Request for Production ofDocuments within ten (10) days from the entry of such Order, and upon the
Defendant's failure to do so within the time allotted, to suffer sanctions to be imposed by further order of
the Court, and further that Defendant shall pay Plaintiff's attorney's fees in the sum of Three Hundred
dollars ($300.00) for preparation, filing and disposition of this Motion.

Explanatory Comment
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania has promulgated new Rule of Civil Procedure 230.2 governing the termination of
inactive cases and amended Rule of Judicial Administration 1901. Two aspects of the recommendation merit
comment.
I. Rule of civil Procedure
New Rule of Civil Procedure 230.2 has been promulgated to govern the termination of inactive cases within the
scope of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure. The termination of these cases for inactivity was previously
governed by Rule of Judicial Administration 1901 and local rules promulgated pursuant to it. New Rule 230.2 is
tailored to the needs of civil actions. It provides a complete procedure and a uniform statewide practice, preempting
local rules.
This rule was promulgated in response to the decision of the Supreme Court in Shop v. Eagle, 551 Pa. 360,710 A.2d
1104 (1998) in which the court held that "prejudice to the defendant as a result of delay in prosecution is required
before a case may be dismissed pursuant to local rules implementing Rule of Judicial Administration 1901."
Rule of Judicial Administration 1901(b) has been amended to accommodate the new rule of civil procedure. The
general policy of the prompt disposition of matters set forth in subdivision (a) of that rule continues to be applicable.
II Inactive Cases
The purpose of Rule 230.2 is to eliminate inactive cases from the judicial system. The process is initiated by the
court. After giving notice of intent to terminate an action for inactivity, the course of the procedure is with the parties.
If the parties do not wish to pursue the case, they will take no action and "the Prothonotary shall enter an order as of
course terminating the matter with prejudice for failure to prosecute." If a party wishes to pursue the matter, he or she
will file a notice of intention to proceed and the action shall continue.
a. Where the action has been terminated
If the action is terminated when a party believes that it should not have been terminated, that party may proceed
under Rule230(d) for relief from the order of termination. An example of such an occurrence might be the termination
of a viable action when the aggrieved party did not receive the notice of intent to terminate and thus did not timely file
the notice of intention to proceed.
The timing of the filing of the petition to reinstate the action is important. If the petition is filed within thirty days of
the entry of the order of termination on the docket, subdivision (d)(2) provides that the court must grant the petition and
reinstate the action. If the petition is filed later than the thirty-day period, subdivision (dx3) requires that the plaintiff
must make a show in to the court that the petition was promptly filed and that there is a reasonable explanation or
legitimate excuse both for the failure to file the notice of intention to proceed prior to the entry of the order of
termination on the docket and for the failure to file the petition within the thirty-day period under subdivision (d)(2).
B. Where the action has not been terminated
An action which has not been terminated but which continues upon the filing of a notice of intention to proceed may
have been the subject of inordinate delay. In such an instance, the aggrieved party may pursue the remedy of a
common law non pros which exits independently of termination under Rule 230.2.
