PETITION FOR EMERGENCY RELIEF. REQUEST FOR ORDER
FOR TEMPORARY PRIMARY PHYSICAL CUSTODY
AND NOW, comes the Plaintiff, Brian Myers, by and through his attorney, Jeanne B.
Costopoulos, Esquire, and respectfully avers the following in support of this Petition for
Emergency Relief:
1. The Plaintiff, Brian Myers, is an adult individual who currently resides at 884
Schoolhouse Lane, Lewisberry, York County, Pennsylvania 17339.
2. The Defendant, Rae Mallein, is an adult individual whose last known residence
was 219-B Nixon Street, Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17055. It is
believed she is temporarily residing at 2630 State Rd. A1A, #81, Atlantic Beach, Florida
32233.
3. The parties have one dependent child, Jade Myers, born May 10, 1995.
4. Until recently, Plaintiff had every other weekend plus very liberal visitation with his
child.
5. In or about August 1, 2000, Defendant took the child on vacation to Florida. She
informed Defendant that she would return August 14, 2000.
6. Plaintiff called Defendant on August 14, 2000 and stated that she did not have
C"_ ',,; ,_- .~ '",- J' _',,;_,'" ,_ ~_ _ _
enough money to return from Florida.
7. On August 19, 200 Plaintiff wired Defendant $200.00 and indicated that he
expected her to retum with the child within three days, especially since the child was
scheduled to begin school in Mechanicsburg on August 28, 2000.
8. On August 24, 2000, Defendant left two messages on Plaintiff's answering
machine whereby she notified Plaintiff that she was not returning to Pennsylvania, that she
had a job paying $6.50 an hour, that she enrolled the child in school in Florida, and that she
used the $200.00 for school clothes for the child. She offered to let Defendant see the child
over Christmas.
9. It is believed that Defendant is residing with her friend, Erika, last name unknown,
Erika's boyfriend, and the subject child. It is also believed that she began dating Erika's
next door neighbor shortly after arriving for vacation on August 1, 2000.
10. On or about Mayor June of 2000, Defendant had suggested to Plaintiff that she
would like to live in Florida. At that time, Plaintiff made it very clear to Defendant that he did
not consent to the child being moved out of Pennsylvania.
11. Neither Plaintiff or Defendant have family in Florida. Defendant's family lives in
Carlisle, Pennsylvania, Plaintiff's maternal extended family lives in Lewisberry, and Plaintiff's
paternal extended family lives in Philadelphia.
12. Defendant is unstable. She has lived moved eight times since the child was
born in May of 1995, this last move having been decided while on vacation. Most of her
belongings are still in Mechanicsburg since she had only brought enough things for a two
", , , ~,-~, "'J
week vacation.
13. Plaintiff fears that Defendant may move again without notifying him where she is
going since she has been acting impulsively and stated that she wants to move on with her
life since breaking up with Plaintiff.
14. Plaintiff has filed a Complaint for Custody simultaneously with this Petition and it
is incorporated herein as though fully set forth.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests this Honorable Court to enter an
Emergency Order granting to him primary physical custody of the child pending the
scheduling of a conference or hearing on the matter.
Respectfully submitted,
