On or about October 31, 2000 the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania suspended the certificate of appointment as an official inspection station which had previously been given to Petitioner. 4. The suspension was given as a result of a finding of alleged fraudulent record keeping and faulty inspection regarding a 1988 Ford Bronco. 5.

The Petitioner has lost and will continue to lose customers, money and good will as a result of the actions of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and asks that the Court stay the suspension pending a hearing. Wherefore, Petitioner prays your Honorable Court dismiss the action against him and issue a stay of license pending a hearing. Respectfully submitted, H. Anthony Adams, Attorney for Petitioner 128 E.
