custody of the children or who claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to the children.

legal custody and primary physical custody of the minor children with partial physical custody to
Defendant.

no Cumberland County Judge has ruled upon any other issue in the same or any related matter
relative to the above-captioned action.

Timothy J. Colgan, Esq., counsel for Plaintiff, for the relief requested herein, was sought and

COMPLAINT FOR CUSTODY
(..J
("..,)
.1'--"
AND COMES NOW, SCOTT A. WOOLF, by and through his attorney, Timothy 1.
Colgan, Esquire, of Wiley, Lenox, Colgan & Marzzacco, P.C., and files the instant Complaint for
Custody, and in support thereof, avers as follows:
1. Plaintiff is Scott A. Woolf, an adult individual who currently resides at 10 Turmeric
Drive, Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17050.
2. The Defendant is Amy E. Woolf, who currently resides at 215 Fox Grove Place,
Hummelstown, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania 17036.
3. Plaintiff seeks shared legal custody and primary physical custody of the following
children: Jason N. Woolf, born on October 30, 2001, and Ryan C. Woolf, born on December 30,
2003.
The children were not born out of wedlock.
The children are presently in the shared physical custody of Plaintiff and Defendant.
4. During the past five years, the children have resided with the following persons and
at the following addresses:

215 Fox Grove Place Mother
Hummelstown, PA 17036
C. Birth 215 Fox Grove Place Father and Mother
November 2005 Hummelstown, P A 17036
The father of the children is Scott A. Woolf, currently residing at 10 Turmeric Drive,
Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania..
The mother of the children is Amy E. Woolf, currently residing at 215 Fox Grove Place,
Hummelstown, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania.
5. The relationship of Plaintiff to the children is that of father.
6. The relationship of Defendant to the children is that of mother.
7. Plaintiff has participated as a party in other litigation concerning the custody of the
children in another court. On AprilS, 2006, an Order was entered at Docket number 2005 CV 4662
DC in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania pursuant to a Stipulation for Custody executed by the parties
on March 23,2006. A copy of said Order and Stipulation are attached hereto, incorporated herein,
and marked as Exhibit "A." Defendant, Amy Woolf, filed a Petition for Modification of Custody
on or about July 31, 2006 requesting primary physical custody of the minor children. Following a
conciliation conference held on August 28, 2006, the matter was to be scheduled for trial before
visiting Senior Judge Ward Clark. Upon Motion by Ms. Woolf s counsel, the matter was continued
generally by Order dated December 9,2006, a copy of which is attached hereto, incorporated herein,
and marked as Exhibit "B."
,
8. It is believed and therefore averred that this matter is more appropriately heard in
Cumberland County as Mother is a Harrisburg City police officer and Father is a Dauphin County
Probation Officer and, as a result, all Dauphin County judges have recused themselves in this matter.
9. Plaintiff does not know of a person not a party to the proceedings who has physical
custody of the children or who claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to the children.
10. The best interest and permanent welfare of the children will be served by granting
Plaintiff shared legal and primary physical custody of the children.
11. Each parent whose parental rights to the children have not been terminated and the
person who has physical custody of the children have been named as parties to this action.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs respectfully request This Honorable Court to award him shared
legal custody and primary physical custody of the minor children with partial physical custody to
Defendant.
Respectfully submitted,

CJ
5. The best interests of the children will be served by modifying the existing
Order because:
A. The circumstances which previously enabled the parties to stipulate
to the terms contained in the above-mentioned Order of AprilS, 2006 have changed, in that
Respondent has relocated to Mechanicsburg, thereby making certain transfers of custody
logistically difficult or impossible.
B. The Petitioner/mother has been the primary caregiver of the children
since birth, and is desirous of continuing in that role.
C. The minor child, Jason Woolf, is in need of regular, ongoing medical
care for an asthmatic condition, which Petitioner believes, and therefore avers, she is better
able to provide.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests that the Court modify the existing Order for
custody and visitation to grant Petitioner primary physical custody, with such periods of partial
physical custody for visitation to Respondent, as this Honorable Court may order.

8, The parties have (subsequent to the aforementioned Conciliation and
scheduling) attended a four-party conference with their respective counsel, Timothy Colgan,
Esq. representing Defendant/Father, and John King, Esq. representing Plaintiff/Mother, and it
is the parties current intention to continue abiding by the custodial arrangement as ordered by
this Honorable Court in its Order dated April 5, 2006.
9. Movant anticipates changes in her circumstances and the childrens'
circumstances over the next several months, including a possible job schedule change for

parties.
10. In addition to the parties' current intention to continue abiding by the

---------------------- --------- CUSTODY ORDER
1. The Petitioner is Amy E. Woolf, Plaintiff in the above-captioned action, and
Mother of the minor children, with a current address of215 Fox Grove Place, Hummelstown,
PA 17036.
2. The Respondent is Scott A. Woolf, Defendant in the above-captioned action,
and Father of the minor children, with a current new address of 10 Turmeric Dr.,
Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, P A 17050.
3. The Petition of Amy E. Woolf respectfully represents that on the 5th day of
April, 2006, an Order of Court was entered for the custody and visitation of the subject minor
children, Jason N. Woolf (dob 10/30/01) and Ryan C. Woolf(dob 12/30/03), a true and correct
copy of which is attached hereto and marked as Exhibit "A".
4. The Respondent was previously represented by Bradley A. Winnick,
Esquire, but Respondent has advised Petitioner that he, Respondent, is in the process of
retaining the services of new counsel. Petitioner is unaware at the present time of
Respondent's new counsel.
(,.
"
t
5. The best interests of the children will be served by modifying the existing
Order because:
A. The circumstances which previously enabled the parties to stipulate
to the terms contained in the above-mentioned Order of April 5, 2006 have changed, in that
Respondent has relocated to Mechanicsburg, thereby making certain transfers of custody
logistically difficult or impossible.
B. The Petitioner/mother has been the primary caregiver of the children
since birth, and is desirous of continuing in that role.
C. The minor child, Jason Woolf, is in need of regular, ongoing medical
care for an asthmatic condition, which Petitioner believes, and therefore avers, she is better
able to provide.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests that the Court modify the existing Order for
custody and visitation to giant Petitioner primary physical custody, with such periods of partial
physical custody for visitation to Respondent, as this Honorable Court may order.
