UN 'l'lIIl 8Lh dny of Dn'.:cmuco::, lQ94, cnm!! the plnlnl:Jff by
counsel, nnd the defendanl: p'ro se fur I:he purpolles of conducllng 11
pre-trlal scheduling conference prior \:0 \:he hearing on permanent
custody. On February 23, 1994, I:he pnrtles were divorced, and
final custody of the minor childL'en of \:he par\:1es was granted to
defendant Faye E. Mayne. Subsequent to the entry of I:hIs final
Order, c011nsel for the p.lain\:1ff received a copy of a wvors report
inves\:1ga\:1ng the sexual assault of \:he m.tnor child Wendy M. Mayne
by Ronnie McCauley. Prlor 1:0 I:he entry of the final custody order,
Mrs. Mayne had represented to her al:l:orney and to Family Law Masl:er
Kratovil I:hat her daughLer had lIot been sexually assaulted. The
wVOPS rephrt contained fltatemen\:s by Faye E. Hayne and Wendy M.
Mayne, as well as a confessIon by Ronnie McCauley, that confirmed
that Wendy had actually been sexually assaulted by Ronnie McCauley.
A mo\:1on 1:0 modify I:he final cus\:ody order WIlS immedia\:ely filed by
\:he plaintif f, which was denied because the even\: complained of dld
not const.l.tute a materinl change of circumstances, although leave
to file n Motion 1:0 Set Aside waa specifically granted. This
motion wan filed shortly thereafl:er, and a hearing occurred on
August 5, 1994 on plnlntlff's Mol:ion to Set AsIde portions of the
final order concerning permanent custody of the minor children of
the parties. At this hearing, Family Law ~Iaster Kratovil ordered
that a home study be performed on the home of Faye E. Mayne due to
the existence of credible evidence that Wendy Mayne had been
sexually assaulted by Ronnie McCauley. Family Law Master Kratovil
further determined that Faye Mayne's failure to protect her minor
children from Ronnie McCauley may constitute abuse and neglect.
Custody of the mInor chll.dr.rm rClllllined with Faye Hayne pending the
completion of the investigation or further order of the Court. The
Family Law Haster further concluded that the presence of Ronnie
McCauley would justify the immediate removal of the minor children
from the custody of Faye E. Mayne.
On September 16, 1994, the court took further evidence on said
motion. The defendant failed to appear, despite having been
personally been served with a Notice of nearing seven days prior to
the September 16, 1994 hearing. The plaintiff testified that he
had personally observed Ronnie McCauley in the presence of the
children on several occasions subsequent to the August 5, 1994
hearing. For g,ood cause appearing to the Court, temporary custody
of the minor children of the parties was granted to the plaintiff.
A hearing on final custody is scheduled January 11, 1995. In light
of the above, the parHes have entered into a written agreement
which contains the following terms and provisions:
