RAYMOND MILLER Defendants IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA No. 4::),~- /'/~ Civil Term COMPLAINT 1. Plaintiff, Eric L. Diffenbaugh, is an adult individual residing at 457 Whitmer Road Shippensburg, Cumberland County, PA 17257. 2. Plaintiff Diffenbaugh is in the business of rendering professional land surveying and engineering services, with offices located at 25 Broad Street, Newville PA. 3. Defendants, Frank C. Myers, III, and Mary S. Miller are the Executors for the Estate of J. Raymond Miller who died on July 29, 2000, as set forth in Adams County Register of Wills filed to Estate No. 01-00-0317, with a last know address of 799 Braggstown Road, Dillsburg, PA 17019. 4. On or about July 16, 1996, and pdor to the demise of J. Raymond Miller, Plaintiff Diffenbaugh and Decedent Miller entered into a contract for Professional services, wherein Plaintiff agreed to provide certain surveying and engineering services in regard., to approximately 13 acres of land located in North Middleton Township, Cumberland County. 5. The contract was for the sum of $26,800.00. (Attachment 1 - 1996 Contract). 6. The land subject to the contract for surveying and engineering services was under contractual option to be purchased by Decedent Miller. 7. At all times relevant, Decedent Miller was engaged in business relationships with Arnold Forbes including, among other things, their joint involvement with said property. It is believed that the Forbes-Miller business venture is know as "Wyatt Investors", with an address at 29 E. Welty Ave., Dillsburg, PA 17019. Plaintiff Diffenbaugh received a retainer in the amount of $3,000.00 prior to the by commencement of work on the contract. The check was signed by and given to him Decedent Miller, and written on an account owned by "F&M". It is believed that this stands for Forbes & Miller. 9. Initially, Decedent Miller requested Plaintiff Diffenbaugh services relative to a proposed mobile home park at the property location. 10. Upon learning that the land was not zoned for mobile homes, the scope of the work changed. Decedent Miller and Arnold Forbes informed Plaintiff Diffenbaugh that the new proposed usage for the land was for a mini-storage unit project. 11. Decedent Miller instructed Plaintiff Diffenbaugh to proceed with his surveying and engineering services; however, because of the change in proposed usage for the land the total cost of the services decreased from the initial price of $26,800.00 to a total co~ of $12,132.00. 12. Plaintiff Diffenbaugh completed all work necessary under said contract, and Decedent Miller with Approved Subdivision and Land development plans in 19! 13. After repeated demands, Decedent Miller failed to pay the final amount due of $9,132.00 for the services rendered pursuant to the said contract. (Attachment 2 -. Invoice). 14. After repeated demands, the Executors for the estate have likewise failed to pay the final amount due for Plaintiff Diffenbaugh's services. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff Diffenbaugh demands judgment in the amount of $9,132.00,plus costs and interest.
