IN THE MATTER OF
THE CHANGE OF NAME
OF MICHAEL EUGENE
KLAHOLD
: IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF
: CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA
: NO. 00-3644
OBJECTION TO PETITION FOR CHANGE OF NAME
AND NOW, comes EUGENE KLAHOLD, by and through his attorney,
Gregory J. Katshir, Esquire, with the following Objection to Petition for
Name change as follows:
1. This matter involves a Petition for Change of Name filed by a minor
child, Michael Eugene KlahoId. Michael Eugene Klahold is the natural son of
Eugene Klahold. The Petition alleges that Michael Eugene Klahold desires
to change his name to Michael Eugene Schamens in order to become the
centerpiece of his grandparent's family.
2. Eugene Klahold is an adult individual residing at 2426 Pleasantview
Drive, York, Pennsylvania 17402.
3. Eugene Klahold is the natural father of Petitioner, Michael Eugene
Klahold.
4. Shortly after the birth of Petitioner, Petitioner was involved in a
dependency matter at 95 Juvenile 1991 in the Court of Common Pleas,
Cumberland County. Pursuant to said proceedings, on May 3, 1993
temporary physical custody was granted to Petitioner's maternal
grandmother, Nancy Detweiler, while Eugene Klahold was to have periods of
partial custody. Temporary custody was provided to maternal grandmother
pending further custody action.
5. From May 1993 through September 1997, Eugene Klahold exercised
periods of partial custody on an every other weekend basis. Petitioner and
Eugene Klahold had formed a strong father/son bond.
6. On or about October 1997, maternal grandmother unilaterally began
to prohibit Eugene Klahold from exercising any periods of partial custody.
She also refused any phone contact between father and son. Each time
Eugene Klahold attempted to telephone his son, maternal grandmother, or
maternal step-grandfather, Robert Dean Schamens would hang-up the
telephone.
~=
~~
~ ~~" ~,~ ~k:
7. Eugene Klahold has, on many occasions, sent card and gifts to his
son, without response.
8. Eugene Klahold resides with his wife, two (2) stepchildren, and
Petitioner's natural sister.
9. Maternal grandmother has refused to allow any contact between
Petitioner alld his father and sister despite Eugene Klahold's continued
efforts to see his son.
10. Natural mother has refused any contact with any natural child,
and her exact whereabouts are unknown.
11. Eugene Klahold has filed a Complaint for Custody in the Court of
Common Pleas, Cumberland County requesting this Honorable Court to
award him custody of the minor child.
12. Maternal grandmother's efforts over the last several years have
been an attempt to alienate father from son. The granting of the relief
requested in the Petition for Change of Name would only lend aid to the
estrangement of father and son.
WHEREFORE, Eugene Klahold requests this Honorable Court to deny
Petitioner's request to change his name.
Respectfully submitted,
Attorney for Eugene Klahold
