WILLIAM L.SHEARER, JR PATRICIA F. SHEARER DEFENDANTS COURT OF COMMON PLEAS CUMBERLAND COUNTY DOCKET NO. 03-528-CIVIL MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT Plaintiff, PNC BANK, N.A. by its counsel, SPEAR & HOFFMAN, P.A., moves this Honorable Court for Summary Judgment pursuant to PA R.C.P. Rule 1035.2(11} in its favor and against Defendants, WILLIAM L.SHEARER, JR AND PATRICIA F. SHEARER. In support of its Motion for Summary Judgment, Plaintiff submits the accompanying Memorandum of Law, proposed Order and Affidavit, and hereby avers as follows: 1. On February 4, 2003, Plaintiff filed a Complaint in Mortgage Foreclosure. A true and correct copy of Plaintiffs Complaint is attached hereto as Exhibit "A." 2. On or about March 11, 2003, Defendants filed an Answer to Plaintiff's Complaint. A true and correct copy of Defendant's Answer is attached hereto as Exhibit "B." 3. Defendants' Answer admits each material allegation of Plaintiffs Complaint and, thus, pursuant to Rule 1035.2 of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure, there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and Plaintiff, the moving party herein, is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. 4. In addition, Plaintiff relies on the pleadings filed of record in this matter which establish that there are no genuine issues of material fact with respect to: a. Defendants' obligations to Plaintiff pursuant to the Mortgage and Mortgage Note (see exhibits to Plaintiff's Complaint, attached hereto as Exhibit "A"). b. Defendants' default in the obligation to make payments pursuant to the aforementioned Mortgage and Note; c. The amount of indebtedness of Defendants to Plaintiff pursuant to the aforesaid documents; and d. Plaintiff's entitlement to judgment as a matter of law. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court enter Judgment in Mortgage Foreclosure against Defendants, WILLIAM L.SHEARER, JR and PATRICIA F. SHEARER, in the amount of $222,224.01, together with interest from AUGUST 01,2002, at $40.90 per diem, costs of suit and attorney's fees. Respectfully submitted, SPEAR & HOFFMAN, P.A.

WILLIAM L.SHEARER, JR PATRICIA F. SHEARER DEFENDANTS COURT OF COMMON PLEAS CUMBERLAND COUNTY DOCKET NO. 03-528-CIVIL MEMORANDUM OF LAW IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT I. INTRODUCTION Defendants executed a Mortgage Note to PNC MORTGAGE CORPORATION on DECEMBER 12, 1997 in the principal sum of $267,000.00 (see exhibits to Complaint, attached hereto as Exhibit "A"). On that same date, Defendants entered into a Mortgage, by which Plaintiff is now a successor in interest by way of assignment. The real property which is subject to thc Mortgage is located at 806 ALEXANDER SPRING ROAD, CARLISLE, PA 17013. Defendants failed to make payments duc for AUGUST 01,2002, and have since failed to make payments as they have become duc and owing. As a result of this default, Plaintiff instituted this foreclosure proceeding to recover the sum owed. Pursuant to the Mortgage, Plaintiff is further entitled to attorney's fees and costs incurred in the collection of this obligation. There is no genuine issue of fact concerning the existence of the obligation or that Defendants are in default of that obligation. Because there is no dispute as to any genuine issue of material fact, Plaintiff is entitled to judgment as a matter of law and entry of summary judgment is appropriate. II. LEGAL ARGUMENT No Genuine Issue of Material Fact Exists, Plaintiff is Entitled to Judgment as a Matter of Law, and the Motion for Summary Judgment Should, thus, be Granted. The purpose of the summary judgment procedure is to avoid vexation and delay, improve the machinery of justice, promote the expeditious disposition of cases and avoid unnecessary trials when genuine issues of material fact are raised. Specifically, Rule 1035.2 of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure provides, in pertinent part: After the relevant pleadings are closed, but within such time as not to unreasonably delay trial, any party may move for summary judgment in whole or in part as a matter of law (1) whenever there is no genuine issue of any material fact as to a necessary element of the cause of action or defense which could be established by additional discovery or expert report, or (2) if, after the completion of discovery relevant to the motion, including the production of expert reports, an adverse party who will bear the burden of proof at trial has failed to produce evidence of facts essential to the cause of action or defense which in a jury trial would require the issues to be submitted to a jury See also Williams v. Pilgrim Life Insurance Co., 306 Pa. Super. 135,461 A.2d 833 (1983). In the instant matter, there are no genuine issues of material fact. The burden of demonstrating that there exists no genuine issue of material fact rests on the moving party. Hower v. WhitmarkAssoc., 371 Pa. Super. 443,381 A.2d 524 (1988); Carollo v. 48Insulation, Inc., 252 Pa. Super. 422, 381 A. 2d 990 (1977). Nonetheless, once a motion for summary judgment is made and is properly supported the non-moving party may not simply rest upon the mere allegation or denials of his or her pleadings. Pa.R.C.P. 1035.3. In such a case, Rule 1035.3 requires that by affidavit or as otherwise provided in this rule, [the non-movant] must set forth specific facts showing that there is a genuine issue for trial. [sic] Thus, once the motion for summary judgment has been properly supported, the burden is upon the non- moving party to disclose evidence that is the basis for his or her argument resisting summary judgment. Fiffich v. GAF Corp., 412 Pa. Super. 261,603 A.2d 208, 210 (1992). See also, Kryeski v. Schott Glass Technologies, 426 Pa. Super. 105, 626 A.2d 595 (1993), appeal den. 639 A.2d 29 (1994); Buchno v. Penn Linen & Uniform Service, Inc., 428 Pa. Super. 563,631 A.2d 674 (1993), appeal den. 647 A.2d 895 (1994); Ducjai v. Dennis, 431 Pa. Super. 366, 636 A.2d 1130 (1994), aff'd 540 Pa. 103,656 A.2d 102 (1995). Rule 1035.3 specifically provides, in pertinent part: (a) the adverse party may not rest upon the mere allegations or denials of the pleadings but must file a response within thirty days after service of the motion identifying (1) one or more issues of fact arising from evidence in the record controverting the evidence cited in support of the motion .... The attached exhibits and affidavit (attached hereto as Exhibit "C") in support of this motion establish conclusively that Defendants executed a Mortgage and Note to which Plaintiff is the successor in interest; Defendants defaulted on payments in the amount of indebtedness, and there are no genuine issues of material fact. Moreover, Defendants have presented no evidence through affidavits to the contrary. As stated above, Defendants may not rest their argument on the pleadings. Therefore, Plaintiff is entitled to summary judgment as a matter of law. Defendants, likewise, may not merely deny the amount owed or state that Defendants are without information sufficient to form a belief as to the truth of Plaintiffs averment as to principal and interest due. Such a general denial is to be considered an admission of those facts. New York Guardian Mortgage Corp. v. Dietzel, 524 A.2d 951,362 Pa. Super. 426, 429 (1987); See also PA.R.C.P. Rule 1029(b,c) and First Wisconsin Trust Company v. Strausser, 653 A.2d 688, 439 Pa. Super. 192 (1995). Lack of admission as to amount of indebtedness in the pleadings of a defendant will not prevent the entry of summary judgment. Landau v. Western Pennsyvlania National Bank, 282 A.2d 335,445 Pa. 217, 225- 6(1971). Furthermore, Defendants raise no genuine issue of material :fact when denying amounts owed by Defendants to Plaintiff. Case law on this issue is exceedingly clear, holding, "[a]n action in mortgage foreclosure is strictly an in rem proceeding, and the purpose of a judgment in mortgage foreclosure is solely to effect a judicial sale of the mortgaged property." New York Guardian Mortgage Corporation v. Dietzel, 362 Pa. Super. 426, 431,524 A.2d 951,953 (Pa. Super 1986). More importantly, the Court held that "[a] judgment in a mortgage foreclosure action is not a judgment for money damages .... "Ibid. Consequently, the Defendants' contention that the amounts, as they appear in the Complaint, owed by Defendants to Plaintiff, is not an issue of material fact in this strictly in rem proceeding. For all of these reasons, Plaintiff is entitled to judgment as a matter of law and in the amounts requested and verified in Plaintiffs Complaint and the affidavits of Plaintiff, whether attached hereto or filed supplementally. B. Plaintiff's ComPlaint States a Cause of Action for Breach of Contract Justifying the Dismissal of Defendants' Answer Summary Judgment based upon contractual liability is appropriate when the documents are undisputed and there is no question as to the contracting parties' intent. See, e.g., Paul Revere Protective Life Ins. Co. v. Weis, 535 F.Supp. 379 (E.D.Pa. 1981); Kane Gas Light & Heating Co. v. Pennzoil Co., 587 F.Supp. 910 (W.D.Pa. 1984). Plaintiff initiated this action in mortgage foreclosure against Defendants based upon Defendants' mortgage obligation. In th&ir Answer, Defendants do not dispute the validity of the Mortgage and Note or that they are a party to each of' these agreements. Additionally, the affidavit supporting this motion clearly establishes Defendants' default on this undisputed contractual liability. Because the validity of the agreements is undisputed by Defendants, the motion relies upon written documents which are fully integrated, the Note is signed by the parties to be charged and undisputed as to interpretation, and because default is clearly established, Summary Judgment should be granted in favor of Plaintiff and against Defendants. See Landau v. Western Pennsylvania National Bank, 282 A.2d 335,445 Pa. 217 (1971) andFirst Wisconsin Trust Company v. Strausser, 653 A.2d 688, 439 Pa. Super. 192 (1995). C. Plaintiff is Entitled to Judgment as a Matter of Law A review of Defendants' Answer indicates that Defendants have no defense to the material allegations of this case. Specifically, Defendants admit the allegations concerning the parties' identities, the documents giving rise to the obligations upon which this lawsuit is based and the fact that Defendants are in default. Defendants' sole defense is that Defendants claim not to owe the specific amount set forth in the Plaintiff's Complaint. For the following reasons, this argument must fail. Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1147(5) requires that the Plaintiff filing a Complaint in Mortgage Foreclosure set forth "an itemized statement of the amom~t due." Plaintiff has set forth such statement with per diem interest in its Complaint. Moreover, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania has held that general denials in mortgage foreclosures as to "the truth of averments of the principal and interest owing must be considered an admission of those facts." First Wisconsin Trust Company v. Strausser, __ Pa. Super. ,653 A.2d 688 (1995); New York Guardian Mortgage Corporation v. Dietzel, 362 Pa. Super. 426, 524 A.2d 951 (1987). Defendants' denials are insufficient to overcome Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment. III. CONCLUSION For all of the foregoing reasons, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Court grant its Motion for Summary Judgment, strike Defendants' Answer, and enter judgment in Mortgage Foreclosure in favor of Plaintiff and against Defendants.

SHEARER DEFENDANTS IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA CIVIL DIVISION DOCKET NO. 03-528 ANSWER TO A MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT AND NOW comes the Defendants, WILLIAM L. SHEARER, JR. and PATRICIA F. SHEARER, by their Attorney JAMES M. BACH, ESQUIRE and files the within ANSWER TO A MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT: 1. - 2. ADMITTED. DENIED. The Defendants requested a reinstatement amount from the Law Firm of Spear and Hoffi'nan. The request for the reinstatement amount was sent to the Law Firm of Spear and Hoffman on March 11, 2003. See Exhibit No. 1. Spear and Hoffman, by letter dated March 20, 2003, provided this office with a reinstatement amount. The amount to reinstate the account was $25,219.70 (Twenty-five thousand two hundred nineteen dollars and seventy cents). The amount stated was good through March 29, 2003. See Exhibit No. 2. On or about April 2, 2003, this office transmitted to the law office of Spear and Hoffxnan, Attention Attorney Laurence R. Chashin, a certified check from the Orrstown Bank in the amount of $25,519.70 (Twenty-five thousand five hundred nineteen dollars and seventy cents). In reality, this amount included $300.00 (Three hundred dollars) in excess of the amount necessary for reinstatement. The excess $300.00 (Three hundred dollars) was to insure that the account would be reinstated in full, since the amount was going to arrive two days late. A copy of the certified check and my letter to Attorney Laurence R. Chashin is enclosed herewith and marked as Exhibit No. 3. The account has been reinstated. The reinstatement amount has been paid in full. The Plaintiff does not have grounds of any nature or sort to advance a Motion for a Summary Judgment.
