IN DIVORCE
PLAINTIFF'S PRETRIAL STATEMENT:
And Now comes Plaintiff, Beth A. Schwartzhauer (hereinafter referred to as Wife) by and
through her attorney, Richard S. Friedman, Esquire and files this Pretrial Statement pursuant to
Rule 1920.33 (b):
I. LIST OF MARITAL AND NON-MARITAL ASSETS: A list of the Marital and
Non-Marital property is attached hereto and is marked Exhibit A.
2. EXPERT WIlNESSES: None.
3. NON-EXPERT WIlNESSES: Wife does not anticipate calling any witnesses
other than herself. However, Wife reserves the right to call rebuttal witnesses, if
necessary, based on Husband's direct testimony.
4. EXHIBITS: Wife's Exhibits are as follows:
Plaintiff's Income and Expense Statement - Exhibit B.
5.
INCOME:
The Income and Expense Statement of Beth A. Schwartzbauer
attached hereto as Exhibit B.
6. EXPENSE: The Income and Expense Statement of Beth A. Schwartzbauer
attached hereto as Exhibit B.
7. RETIREMENT BENEFITS: Retirement benefits: are of little or no value.
8. COUNSEL FEES: $5,000.00 (approximate).
9. DISPUTES: None anticipated.
10. MARITAL DEBT: See Statement of Liabilities - Exhibit C.
II. PROPOSED RESOLUTION: A decree in divor<ce be immediately entered.
12. RELEVANT FACTS: The following factual situation, I believe, is relevant for
purposes of equitable distribution under g3502 of the Divorce Code:
The parties were married for a short period of time when the relationship
deteriorated to a point where, for all intents and purposes, they were separated in
2002, when Wife moved out of the marital bedroom. Both parties worked,
although Husband's employment was sporadic and Wife paid almost all
household bills. As a result of Husband's bad crl~dit, Wife refinanced the home
solely in her name.
13. WIFE'S PROPOSED DISTRIBUTION AND RATIONALE:
Our proposed resolution of the economic issues is based on the criteria in the
Divorce Code, particularly the earnings and earning capacities of the parties.
Wife's proposed distribution is as follows:
a) Husband's interest in the marital premises be transferred to Wife.
b) Wife retain ownership of all furniture, fixtures and personal property from
the marital home by virtue of said assets being owned by Wife prior to the
marriage.
c) Husband reimburse Wife for one-half of the IRS refund of $1,540.00
which he converted to his own use.
d) Husband pay to Wife the sum of $2,000.00 representing one-half of the
cost of the sump pump for the marital home which he agreed to pay and
has failed to do.
e) Each of the parties keep the other and non-marital assets in their
possessIOn.
f) Husband pay $5,000.00 on account of Wife's legal fees.
g) All other claims be withdrawn.
Respectfully submitted,

COMPLAINT IN DIVORCE
JOINT PETITION FOR BIFURCATION
TO THE HONORABLE, THE JUDGES OF THE SAID COURT:
Petitioners, Beth A. Schwartzbauer, by her attorneys, Friedman & King, PC, and
Frank Ferraro, by his attorneys, Carrucoli & Associates, jointly file this Petition for Bifurcation
and respectfully represent in support thereof:
1. Petitioner, Plaintiff in this action, currently resides at 2003 Dartmouth St.,
Camp Hill PA 17011.
2. Second Petitioner, Defendant in this action, currently resides at
801-1 Walnut St., Lemoyne PA 17043.
3. Petitioner Plaintiff s divorce action avers that the marriage is irretrievably
broken and grounds for divorce have been established.
4. Petitioner Plaintiff also requests ancillary relief in the form of claims for
equitable distribution, alimony, alimony pendente lite, and counsel fees, costs and expenses.
.. .,., i.....-.
5. The parties have not as yet been able to agree to a settlement of the above
claims. There will be additional negotiations and most probably, a full Master's hearing. As a
result of these factors, a final resolution of the economic issues of the within action is likely
many months away.
6. The parties have been separated since February of2002.
7. Both parties have signed and filed consents and waivers of notice to allow the
divorce to be finalized.
8. Since the divorce claim is not at issue and Petitioner Plaintiff's ancillary causes
of action are preserved by the pleadings, no prejudice will occur if a divorce is granted prior to
the adjudication of Petitioner Plaintiff's ancillary claims.
9. Compelling circumstances exist for the entry of the decree of divorce.
10. Sufficient economic protections have been or will be provided for both parties
during the pendency of the disposition of all ancillary matters.
11. Pursuant to the Divorce Code, 23 Pa. Cons. Stat. Ann. ~Sec. 3101 et seq., this
Court is empowered to grant a divorce and to reserve jurisdiction over the remaining ancillary
Issues.
WHEREFORE, Petitioners request that this Honorable Court:
(a) Order bifurcation of this action;
(b) Grant the requested divorce in the complaint; and
(c) Reserve jurisdiction over all the remaining ancillary issues before the Court.

ACTION IN DIVORCE
PETITION FOR LEAVE TO WITHDRAW AS DEFENDANT'S COUNSEL
AND NOW comes the Petitioner, Carrucoli & Associates, P.C., by Michelle L. Sommer,
Esquire, seeking leave of this Honorable Court to withdraw as counsel for Defendant, Prank Ferraro,
pursuant to the Rules of Professional Conduct Rule 1.16, and avers as follows:
1. Petitioner is counsel of record for Defendant herein by virtue of having represented the
Defendant at his Pre-Trial Conference on October 17,2005.
2. Petitioner is currently representing Defendant pro bono.
3. Petitioner originally agreed to help the Defendant finalize his divorce proceedings at the
October 17, 2006, Conference in view of the fact that he was representing himself and
in need of legal guidance. Unfortunately, the matter was unable to be resolved at the
October Hearing, as well as at the April 18, 2006, Hearing.
4. Defendant is unwilling to compensate the Petitioner for her legal services at this time.
Consequently, the divorce proceedings have become a financial burden on the Petitioner
and as a direct result the Petitioner is no longer able to represent the Defendant for free.
5. Petitioner had tried several times to explain the legal process and advise the Defendant
of the best possible course of action to no avail.
-.
... - '"
.
6. Plaintiff has made two separate offers to settle for a fair and reasonable sum and
Defendant insists on going forward against advice of counsel in his divorce proceeding.
7. At the Hearing scheduled for April 18, 2006, the Defendant agreed to a settlement
offered by the Plaintiff and upon an agreement reached by both counsels the Defendant
withdrew his acceptance thereby prolonging the divorce proceedings between the
parties.
8. Defendant is unwilling to even listen to the advice of his counsel in his divorce
proceeding, insisting "he will get" more money at the final Master's Hearing and wishes
to proceed with a Hearing against the advice of his counsel.
9. Counsel for the Plaintiff, Richard S. Friedman, Friedman & King, P.C., does not oppose
this Petition for Leave to Withdraw as Counsel.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner seeks leave of this Honorable Court to terminate Petitioner's
representation of the Defendant and to withdraw her appearance as counsel in the above-captioned
matter.
