Re: Bentz v. Bentz
No. 858-2000 Civil Term (Cumberland County)
Dear Attorney Elicker:
Enclosed please fmd a Certification regarding discovery in the above-referenced case. I
would be interested in obtaining a hearing date regarding this matter as soon as possible.
I have sent Interrogatories to the Defendant; as of yet I have received no response. My
client, Ronald Bentz (the Plaintiff), wishes to move this matter along. Therefore I am willing to
waive the discovery request in order that a hearing might be scheduled promptly.
My client, Ronald Bentz, signed an Affidavit of Separation indicating he believed that the
parties had been separated in April 1997 . Since that time, defendant, Luann Bentz, asserted that
the separation date was April 1998. She signed the counter-affidavit and indicated on March 29,
2000 that she believed the parties had not been separated for two years. However, as of April
2000, the two-year separation period would have elapsed.
The parties have very little property and Defendant has filed no economic claims.
Please schedule this matter for hearing as soon as possible. Thank you for your kind
cooperation and consideration regarding the above.
Very truly yours,
Q~
