Mother did not encourage Father's relationship but rather encouraged the rift between Father and
daughter.

her new unstructured lifestyle, Father realized that he could not maintain his relationship with his
daughter without Mother's encouragement and the child's desire.
15. Reluctantly, Father agreed to the entry of the Order dated December 16, 1997 wherein
his partial physical custody was to be initiated by the child and consented to by Mother. A copy of
the Order is marked as Exhibit "D, attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

custody ofthe child or claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to the child.

encouraged the child's relationship with Father.
22. Each parent whose parental rights to the child have not been terminated and the person
who has physical custody of the child have been named as parties to this action.

Atty. Barbara Sample-Sullivan

New Cumberland, PA 17070
Dear Atty: ,Sample-Sullivan:
This letter is in response to a phone call I had with
your paralegal, Lisa, on August 14, 1997.
I received a referral that Cheri Botts had been hit by
her father, Charles Botts, on July 22, 1997 with unknown
injuries. I responded and visited the Charles Botts'
resid~nce within an hour of receiving the call.
I spoke to both Charles and Cheri that night. As Charles
was r~luctant to let me in his home, I approached him closely
and did not smell any alcohol on his breath.
Cheri was in the room when I told her father about the
allegations our agency had received. After he denied hurting
her, she spoke up and contradicted him by saying that he did.
She did not appear fearful of her father and continued to say
she wanted to go live with her mother.
If you need further information, please contact me.
