reinstate the appeal upon good cause shown."
9. Gardner has failed to establish "good cause" to reinstate his Appeal.
10. Gardner has failed to provide any explanation as to why returns of service were

APPEAL FROM DISTRICT JUSTICE
JUDGMENT (23'7-02 D.J. Correal)
DEFENDANT JACK GAUGHEN REALTOR'S RESPONSE IN OPPOSITION TO THE
PETITION FOR A HEARING ON THE DEFENDANT MICHAEL GARDNER'S
PETITION TO REINSTATE HIS APPEAL.
AND NOW comes Defendant/Appellee Jack Gaughen Realtor ("Jack Gaughen"),
by and through its undersigned counsel, and in response to the Petition for a Hearing on the
Defendant Michael Gardner's Petition to Reinstate his Appeal, avers as follows:
1. Admitted.
2. Denied as stated. Defendant Michael Gardner ("Gardner") did file a Proof of
Service, but because of an error by Gardner's counsel it was filed under an incorrect docket
number.
3.
Admitted.
4. Admitted.
5. Admitted.
6. Admitted.
100405 I 10/2/03
7. Admitted. By way of further response, a copy of Defendant Jack Gaughen
Realtor's Response to the Rule to Show Cause Issued March 27, 2003 is attached hereto as
Exhibit "A."
Jack Gaughen's Response to the Rule to Show Cause established that there is no
reason to reinstate Gardner's appeal. Pa. R. Civ. P. D. J. 1006 provides that "[t]he court of
common pleas may reinstate the appeal upon good cause shown." Gardner has failed to establish
"good cause" to reinstate his Appeal. Gardner has failed to provide any explanation as to why
returns of service were not properly filed within the time provided by the Rules. Further, Jack
Gaughen has acted in reliance on the appeal being stricken. Specifically, Pa. R. Civ. P. D. J.
1008(C) provides that "[i]f an appeal is stricken or voluntarily terminated, any supersedeas based
upon it shall terminate." After the appeal was stricken, and the supersedeas of the judgment of
the District Justice thereby terminated, Jack Gaughen disbursed the monies that it held in escrow
(specifically $2,000.00), as directed by the judgment entered by District Justice Correal.
Moreover, Gardner received the entire mount that he demanded at the hearing
below. Specifically, Gardner's attorney, Colin K. Lydon, Esquire, represented to District Justice
Correal that the entire amount due to Gardner was $373.00. Gardner received $373.00 as
directed by the judgment entered by District Justice Correal, and Jack Ganghen has in fact
disbursed that money to Gardner out of the money held in escrow. Considering that Gardner has
failed to offer any explanation al to why returns of service were not properly filed, that Jack
Gaughen has acted in reliance on the Prothonotary's order striking the Appeal, and that Gardner
received the entire amount that he requested from District Justice Correal, there is simply no
"good cause" why the Appeal should be reinstated.
8. Admitted. By way of further response, upon information and belief the Plaintiff,
Gene R. Gellett, is deceased.
9. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that Gardner has requested a
hearing. It is denied that a hearing is either necessary or appropriate. Gardner has failed to show
that there is "good cause" to reinstate his appeal, and his Petition to Reinstate his Appeal should
be denied.
WHEREFORE, Defendant/Appellee Jack Gaughen Realtor respectfully requests
that the Petition for a Hearing on the Defendant Michael Gardner's Petition to Reinstate his
Appeal be denied and further that the Petition to Reinstate the Appeal of Michael Gardner be
denied.
