7. Plaintiff has not participated as a party or witness, or in another capacity, in other
litigation concerning the custody of the child in this or another court.

court of this Commonwealth.
Plaintiff does not know of a person not a parry to the proceedings who has physical
custody of the child and claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to the
child.
8. The best interest and permanent welfare of the child will be served by granting the relief
request because:
Plaintiffs, Larry and Elaine Weidman have undertaken and performed the primary
parental responsibilities for the child.
Plaintiffs are best able to provide the care and nurture which the child needs for healthy
development.
A Court Order of custody and structured visitation is desired so that the Plaintiffs and the
child may plan their schedules accordingly, and so that misunderstandings and unmet
expectations regarding custody and visitation can be avoided, and also so that the child is
not used in a manipulative fashion.
Plaintiffs desire to maintain the family household which has been established, and the
continued stability of the household is in the best interest of the child.
A Court Ordered determination of custody is required to avoid continuing conflict
between the parties regarding responsibility for custody and support.
Plaintiffs continue to maintain the same family household for the child that has been
maintained since birth. The Defendant has moved to Vermont to work but maintains an
address in Cumberland County for residency and mailing purposes.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs requests this Court grant primary physical and legal custody in
the maternal grandparents until the natural mother is finished with her tour of duty with the
United States Navy and grant the father periods of visitation as agreed upon by the parties.
