Brossman, by and through his counsel, Howett, Kissinger & Conley, P.C., who hereby files the instant Petition for Civil Contempt and Modification of Partial Custody Order and in support thereof avers as follows: 1. Petitioner is Douglass C. Brossman ("Father"), Defendant in the above- captioned custody action, who is an adult individual currently residing at 3502 Scotland Road, Chambersburg, P A 17201. 2. Defendant is Deborah A. Brossman ("Mother"), Plaintiff in the above- captioned custody action, who is an adult individually currently residing at 1540 Walnut Bottom Road, Newville, pennsylvania 17241. 3. On December 8, 2002, the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, per the lIonorable Edgar B. Bayley, entered an Order modifYing the original custody order between the parties dated October 5, 2000, which order awarded Father partial physical custody of Laura L. Brossman and Adam C. Brossman. A true and correct copy of both the December 8, 2002 order and the October 5, 2000 order is attached hereto collectively as Exhibit "A" and is incorporated herein by reference thereto. ~--, "-- , ''j'r''- "'=, lwrn.,,- , . 4. Father and his fiancee intend to reside together in Fairfax, Virginia where fiancee already lives and has employment. 5. Pursuant to 94346 of the Domestic Relations Code, a party who wilfully fails to comply with a partial custody order may be adjudged in contempt, which may be punishable by imprisonment not to exceed six (6) months, a fine not to exceed Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00), probation for a period not to exceed six (6) months or by an order suspending or denying licenses. 6. Rule 1915.12 ofthe Rules of Civil Procedure empowers a party to a partial custody order to file a petition for civil contempt. 7. Mother has willfully failed to abide by the existing partial custody order by, inter alia, the following: (a) Engaging in a course of conduct to alienate Father from his children; (b) Routinely making disparaging remarks regarding Father in the presence of the children; (c) Monitoring phone calls between Father and the children and preventing telephonic and electronic mail contact between Father and the children; (d) As per the custody order, Father was to have partial physical custody of the children over the weekend of January 10 and 11, 2003. Bye-mail dated January 9, 2003, Mother informed Father that he would not be permitted to exercise his rights of partial physical custody over the weekend; and ~~ ~ . fk; . . (e) Notwithstanding the e-mail, Father arrived at Mother's residence at the designated time for pickup to exercise his rights of partial physical custody. However, no one came to the door and, when Father called the residence on his cell phone, no one answered. Father waited approximately twenty (20) minutes for the children, but Mother did not appear with the children to effectuate the custody transfer. 8. Father believes its in the best interest of the children to modifY the existing custody order in light of, inter alia, the following: (a) Given Father's move to Virginia, which is approximately two (2) hours away, the current custodial schedule is not feasible. Inasmuch as the children are of school age, Father proposes a schedule whereby, to offset the time during the academic year when his time with the children during the week will be limited, the court enter an order providing him alternating weekends and four (4) continuous weeks of custody during the summer vacation; (b) In light of Mother's continued and willful refusal to abide by the existing custody schedule, court intervention is necessary in which to instruct an acceptable custodial arrangement in light of Father's relocation. - ~-""'''"\I ~. , - . =0 "-""-~-'ltl . .
