NO. 97 - 3149 CIVIL
NANCY E. ENGERS,
Defendant
IN DIVORCE
Re:
Pre-Hearing Conference Memorandum
Date:
Tuesday, September 5, 2000
Present for the Plaintiff, Philip Engers, is
attorney P. Richard Wagner, and present for the Defendant,
Nancy E. Engers, is attorney Dawn S. Sunday.
The parties were married on December 6, 1987,
and separated May 31, 1997. They are the natural parents of
three children, Joseph, born March 2, 1988; Jessica, born
April 16, 1990; and David, born July 9, 1993.
The complaint raised grounds for divorce of
irretrievable breakdown of the marriage and counsel have
indicated that the parties will sign and file affidavits of
consent and waivers of notice of intention to request entry of
divorce decree so that the divorce can be concluded under
Section 3301(c) of the Domestic Relations Code. The complaint
was filed on June 13, 1997.
On April 17, 2000, wife filed a petition
ralslng the economic claims of equitable distribution,
alimony, and counsel fees and expenses. Counsel have
indicated that no testimony will be offered regarding the
factor of marital misconduct.
Husband is 36 years of age and resides at 10
North 30th Street, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, where he lives
with a female friend. He has a Bachelor's degree and is
employed by J & S Fabrication. According to a support memo
from the Cumberland County Domestic Relations Office, his net
monthly income as of May 2000 is $3,128.00. He is currently
paying spousal support in the amount of $534.00 per month and
child support in the amount of $1,097.00 per month. Husband
is currently covered with medical insurance through his
employer.
Wife is 36 years of age and resides at 7
North 29th Street, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania, where she lives
with the children. She is a high school graduate and is
working on an Associates degree in nursing. She had an income
capacity hearing before Judge Bayley in December of 1998 and
he determined that her net monthly income was $250.00. Mr.
Wagner has indicated that wife has a higher earning capacity
because she has been taking minimal courses at school and is
not engaging in any employment to earn income. Attorney
Sunday has provided a letter showing that wife is involved in
a clinical program which constitutes part of her training
program for her degree. It is anticipated that wife will
complete her education in May 2002. Mr. Wagner claims that
before separation she was making between $12,000.00 and
$15,000.00 a year as a transcriber. If necessary we will
take testimony on the earning capacity issue at the hearing
that is going to be scheduled and counsel can advise each
other of the witnesses that they intend to offer at that time
on that issue. Wife is going to require medical insurance
upon the entry of a divorce decree and hopes to be able to
take advantage of COBRA benefits through husband's employment.
The cost to wife is believed to be around $130.00 per month.
The parties sold the marital residence and
according to counsel had to put some funds into the
transaction in order to make the sale. Consequently there are
no escrow net proceeds being held for distribution.
The vehicles that counsel have identified
are a 1988 Toyota Camry which wife says has a value of
$4,640.00; husband states a value of $1,500.00. The car
identified by Mr. Wagner as having been abandoned for junk was
a vehicle that the parties had while they were married. The
car which wife has valued at $5,675.00 has a transmission
problem, was purchased subsequent to the separation, and has a
debt against the vehicle which wife is obligated to pay in the
amount of $4,500.00. There is a 1986 BMW motorcycle which
wife has placed a value on of $2,900.00 and husband a value of
$1,000.00. Husband claims the motorcycle was purchased March
28, 1998 and is non-marital.
Husband has mutual funds in a retirement plan
and a 401(k) account. The value for the mutual fund stated
on the pretrial statement was $3,150.00; the value of the
401 (k) as of October 31, 1997, was $8,800.00.
There was also a life insurance policy which
was surrendered for $2,200.00. The money was deposited in a
joint savings account with PNC Bilnk. Subsequent to that
deposit (the account was opened to accommodate that deposit),
there were deposits which Mr. Engers claims were marital funds
and withdrawals which were for marital expenses. Attorney
Sunday has requested documentatlon of the transactions in that

ORDER
(i It dayof-&r': \
Conciliator's Report. it appearing that a hearing is necessary. it is hereby ordered and dirc:cted as
AND NOW. this
. 2000, upon receipt of the
.;
,
r\
follows:
A hearing is scheduled for the cJ3 lUi-day of ~
(/
2000. at /:.36 o'c1ock -t,M,. in Court Room Number -1- of the
Cumberland County Court I louse. Carlisle, Pennsylvania, Both parties. through
counsel. will provide each other and the court with a list of witnesses ten (10)
days prior to the date of the hearing along with a statement as to their expected
testimony, Additionally. both parties will submit their proposal for a resolution of
the matter.
Should either party desire an update of the custody evaluation that was
perfomled by Dr. Shienvold. the other party must cooperate with having that
update completed, The parties shall share the cost of the update of the evaluation
not arrange for a trip with the children to take them to Chicago to visit her family which took the
children out of school. He did not agree to the trip but the Mother took it anyway.
His position on the modification is that the existing schedule during the school year
should be modified to coineide with what they do over the summer, Specifically. they have a
week-on. week-ofT schedule over the summer and he believes that a week-on, week-ofT schedule
during the school year will be best for the children in that they can have some consistencies week
to week. as far as their homework and sehool is concerned. and less bouncing back and forth. He
also suggests that because of their proximity (they live very close to cach other) this schedule
would work as well.
6, TIle Defendant's position on custody is as follows: Mother's position on the contempt
issue is that she advised Father that she intended to take the children out to visit her parents and
got approval from the school. Despite Father's protests about the trip. she did not think it was
detrimental to them and she should not be subject to his whim of approving the trips that she
makes.
As far as the change for the custodial arrangement is concerned. Mother points out that
the parties had a full and complete cvaluation which resulted in a modification of the existing
Order last year whereby the children are on a week-on. week-ofT schedule over the summer but
there is a regular schedule during the school year whereby she has primary custody and Father
has alternating weekends and some periods of time during the week, She does not believe there
is a basis to change that schedule and that it is working well.
She believes that the Father's motivation is pure economies, She fimlly believes that the
motivation of the Father is support-driven and that the parties should continue with the schedule
that was recommended by an evaluator only a year ago and one that is working well,
7, Need for separate counsel to represent child(ren): Neithcr party requested,
8. Need for independent psychological evaluation or counseling: None requested and the
Conciliator does not believe any is necessary,
9, A hearing in this matter will take one-half day,
10, Other matters or comments: This is a case that has been through several
conciliations. The parties have reached some resolutions in the past. the most recent of which
was last year after a custody evaluation was pcrformed,
The contempt issue is one that the Court can easily resolve, The contempt, from the
Conciliator's perspective. is more indicative of the parties' inability to communicate than
anything else, Mother should not take the children on a trip without Father's knowledge, Father,
on the other hand. should not withhold approval for a trip when the trip is merely to take the
children out to visit the Mother's family, If the parties were communicating properly, this would
be a non-issue,
The modi fication of the existing schedule is another story. The parties had a complete
evaluation that was perfonned and completed last year by Dr, Shienvold, Dr, Shienvold made
some specific recommendations. one of which was followed by the parties. that being a week-on.
week-olT schedule over the summer months. The Father must show that there is a basis for
modilication of the existing schedule and that it is in the best interests of the children to change
the schedule, The Conciliator recommended to the parties' counsel that they may want to get an

hereof, and marked as Exhibit A.
4. The current arrangements in effect provide that the
parties alternate weeks during the summer and have a
comprehensive schedule for school.
5. Petitioner herein believes and therefore avers that
it is in the best interests of the children to have a shared
legal and shared physical custody arrangement in that the parties
live literally next door to one another, they both live in the
same school district, and their schedules are such that the best
interests of the children will be served by having a shared legal
and shared physical custody arrangement.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays this Court to grant relief
as requested.
