Radle and Sharon Radle, 925 Conley Drive, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania 17055 (collectively, "Radles") in accordance with the Praecipe to Enter Rule to File Complaint and Rule to File dated November 21, 2000 entered pursuant to a Notice of Appeal filed at the above docket number by Mr. & Mrs. Kent Greene, d/b/a Greene's Camp Hill, 3804 Gettysburg Road, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania 17011 ("Greene's). In support of this Complaint, Radles aver that: I. On November 27, 1999, Radles purchased from Greene's, and made a down payment of $383.72, on a Mori Lee wedding gown for their daughter, Shannon Radle. After measuring Shannon Radle, Greene's said they would order a size 16 gown for her. Radles told Greene's that Shannon actually wears a size 10 or a size 12 dress, so they 2 ',I-!' .. ,- ~ r, I' asked that a 10 or 12 be ordered for their daughter. fustead, Greene's ordered a size 16 gown for Shannon Radle. 2. On January 24, 2000, Radles were informed that the gown Greene's ordered ("Gown No.1 U) had arrived, and a fitting took place. The gown was extremely large. The seamstress (presumably a Greene' s employee) told Radles that the size 16 gown was too large to be altered properly and she told Mrs. Greene to order a small size. On this date, the remaining balance of$383.72 was paid by Radles to Greene's. 3. On January 24,2000, Greene's ordered another size 16 gown, stating that Gown No. 1 was not really a size 16. 4. On April 20, 2000, Gown No.2 arrived and another fitting took place. Gown No.2, while not as large as Gown No.1, also did not fit Shannon Radle. Once again Greene's seamstress said that it was too large to be altered properly. Following that second unsuccessful fitting, Greene's made no effort to order the correct size gown and refused to refund the purchase price to Radles. 5. On or about June 12,2000, approximately six weeks prior to the wedding, Radles attempted on their own to find the same dress at another area bridal shop in a size 12 or a size 14. The same gown in a size 12 was located at a shop in Camp Hill. Shannon went to that shop for a fitting. The size 12 Mori Lee gown fit properly and needed no alterations. However, that gown was in very poor condition and Radles decided not to purchase it. 6. Thereafter, Radles searched the futemet and found the Mori Lee web page with a listing of stores in Pennsylvania that carried that particular Mori Lee wedding gown 3 '''';'''-~ 'I ," " ~ I - II. '::;f:llll'lll__1 .~ ,I in a size 12. Three stores were located, the closest being in Scranton, Pennsylvania. On June 19,2000, Radles traveled to Scranton, Pennsylvania and purchased the Mori Lee wedding gown in a size 12 which fit Shannon perfectly. 7. On June 25,2000, Radles sent a letter to Greene's expressing their displeasure with Greene's business practices and requesting the full refund of the purchase price of the gown, namely $767.44. 8. On July 7, 2000, Greene's responded, saying in effect that Shannon Radle had lost a significant amount of weight and that Greene's would not refund the purchase price of the gown. In fact, however, Shannon Radle's weight had not changed since the time she was first measured at Greene's. 9. On September 8, 2000, a Complaint was filed by Mr. & Mrs. Wm. C. Radle against Mr. & Mrs. Kent Greene, d/b/a Greene's Wedding & Tuxedo, with District Justice Charles Clement 10. On October 24, 2000, a hearing was held before District Justice Clement at which time testimony was heard from Sharon Radle and Shannon Patackis (formerly Radle) on behalf of the Radles and from W. Kent Greene, Mrs. Greene and Barb Greene on behalf of Greene's. After two hours of testimony the hearing was concluded. 11. On October 26, 2000, ajudgment for Radles was entered against Greene's by District Justice Clement in the amount of Eight Hundred Twenty-Two Dollars and Ninety Four cents ($822.94). 12. On November 21, 2000, a Notice of Appeal was filed in the Court of Common Pleas from the judgment rendered by District Justice Charles A. Clement, Jr. 4 II' "' 'C{,! .- THEREFORE, Radles respectfully request that this Honorable Court schedule an arbitration panel to hear the evidence and render judgment against Greene's in the amount of Fifteen Hundred Dollars $1,500.00, plus interest and costs as allowed by law.

Radle and Sharon Radle v. Mr. & Mrs. Kent Greene d/b/a Greene's Camp Hill Defendants : No. 8206 CIVIL 2000 ANSWER AND NEW MATTER AND NOW COMBS the above Defendants and respectfully submits the following Answer and New Matter to Plaintiffs Complaint: I. Admitted in part; denied in part. La. On the initial visit to Greene's Camp Hill on November 12, 1999 Shannon Radel (Purchaser: daughter of Plaintiffs) stated her normal dress size to be between "10 and 14" recorded by consultant Connie Sheaffer on Shannon's registration card, as opposed to "10 and 12" dress size as alleged by Plaintiffs (parents of Sharon Radle). Shannon subsequently tried on sample gowns, including Moo Lee style 6010, size 10 White. l.b. Shannon returned with her mother on November 27, 1999 and retried Mori Lee 6010 sample size 10, and it was recorded on the registration card "@4" from bust" by Barbara Greene (Store Manager), meaning 4 additional inches offabric was needed to zip the dress. Barbara G. also recorded Shannon's measurements: Bust 39", Waist 30", and Hips 41 3/4 ". I.c. Barbara G. eJi:plained to Shannon on November 27, 1999 that her measurements fell between size 14 and size 16. Specifically Shannon measured 1/2" greater than size 14 in the bust, 1" greater than size 14 in the waist, and 1/4" greater than size 16 in the hips. Do to a disparity between sizes, it is customary for a consultant to request a second opinion. l.d. A second opinion provi4ed by Kathleen Greene (owner), on November 27, 1999 concurred that Shannon would fall between size 14 and size 16. Kathleen also observed Shannon while wearing the sample size 10 with a 4" gap ftom zipping. Kathleen reviewed the manufacturer's size chart with Shannon and explained if she chose size 14, the gown would have to be let out in all three measurements: bust, waist, and hips. I.e. Kathleen also explained to Shannon on November 27, 1999 that there was no lace available on the waistband to let out the way the gown was constructed. Shannon was also advised that if she chose size 16, the gown would need to be taken in (altered) I" in the bust and 1/2 " in the waist, which would be preferable to ordering a size 14 and not having enough material to let out to attain a proper fit. I.f. At no time on November 27, 1999 did Plaintiffs request a size 10 be ordered as alleged, which was not an issue based on the inability of Barbara G. and Kathleen G to zip the sample size 10. Plaintiff did not question whether the sample was a true size 10, given the observable 4" gap from closing. I '~~I l.g. At no time on November 27, 1999 did Plaintiffs request a size 12 be ordered as alleged, given a size 12 would have would have been 2" from fitting in the bust, 2 1/2" from fitting in the waist, and 3 1/4 " from fitting in the hips. l.h. The final sizing decision to choose size 16 was made by Shannon with her mother's concurrence. Defendant subsequently placed an order with the manufacturer to provide a size 16 gown. l.i. Defendant was contractually bound to deliver a size 16 and no other. 2. Mmitted in part, denied in part. 2.a On January 14, 2000 as opposed to January 24, 2000 Plaintiffs were notified gown had arrived and verbally requested to try-on the gown within 7 days in accordance with the manufacturers claims liability limitations stated in the Terms of Sale. On Saturday, January 22, 2000 a try-on with a consultant as opposed to a scheduled fitting with a seamstress took place. The seamstress was called over by Defendants, as the gown was miscut too large: 41 1/2"in Bust and 34" in hip, meaning the gown was between a size 18 and 20. Kathleen G. explained to Plaintiffs a true size 16 would be re-ordered immediately. 2.b. Mrs. Sharon Radle proceeded to request Mrs. Greene order an additional size 14 in the event the size 16 was again too big. The exact quote extracted from a letter dated June 25, 2000 states " Mrs. Radle even asked if you could order a 14 and hold onto the 16 just in case the 14 was too small and could not be let out". Plaintiff in this instance is asking for both a size 14 and size 16 as of January 20, 2000 which wholly contradicts para. I of the Complaint, which states Plaintiffs "asked that a IO or 12 be ordered for their daughter. Instead, Greene's ordered a size 16 gown for Shannon Radle." 2.c. Plaintiffs reference to the seamstress telling Mrs. Greene to order a "small size" was predicated on the seamstresses not knowing the size 16 actually measured a size 18/20. A true size 16 would satisfy the "small size" requirement in this discussion. Any size smaller size than size 16 would have been too small, /lccording to measurements taken on November 27,2000. 2.d While the Plaintiff infers the seamstress a "small size" could be construed to be size 10 or 12 consistent with para. I of the Complaint, the Plaintiffs oral definition of "small size" as of January 20, 2000 restated in the June 25, 2000 request for refund letter to Defendant was size 14 and 16 and not size 10 or 12. 3. Admitted. 4. Admitted in part, denied in part. 4.a. A second try-on took place with Kathleen Greene, owner on April 20, 2000. Seamstress My T N Dang did not attend. Defendant denies the truthfulness of statements attributable to a seamstress that was not present at Shannon's try-on on April 20, 2000. Explanatory Notation: The seamstress is a tenant in an adjacent building. "Try-ons" are conducted on a walk-in basis in the main store with "consultants" after garments arrive. "Fittings" are conducted in the adjacent building with the seamstress by appointment ouly. 2 11 "" >'p... II i~ f"q 4.b. During the April 20, 2000 try-on, Kathleen G determined that the gown being tried on by Shannon was big in the bust (about 2"), but properly fit in the hip, where she required a true size 16. 4.c. Mrs Radle expressed concerns about a, fabric bllckle in the bust, but was assured by Kathleen G that the buckle could probably be pressed out by the seamstress after the bust was taken in. KatWeen demonstrated by pulling in the excess fabric at the side seams on the size 16 Shannon was wearing and the buckle substantially disappeared. 4.d. Mrs. Radle appeared to be satisfied that the gown could be properly altered, and subsequently scheduled a fitting appointment with the seamstress for June 7, 2000. Plaintiffs elected to have wedding gown returned to storage as opposed to taking the gown from the store at this time. 4.e. Defendant unequivocally denies any knowledge pertaining to a "second unsuccessful fitting" or any reference to any discussion pertaining to reordering "the correct size gown" and absolutely no discussion of a refund, or refusal to provide a refund on April 20, 2000. All of these averments may have taken place on June 7,2000, after the manufacturer had already discontinued production of style 6010, but not on April 20,2000 as alleged in the Complaint. 4.f. Ownership as a result of acceptance of a true size 16 wedding gown paid in full on April 20, 2000 changed from Defendant to Plaintiff. Defendant maintained custodial possession with no ownership rights to Plaintiffs gown while in storage. Claims in the Complaint that the gown was too large to be properly altered attributed to a seamstress who was not present were not presented to Manager, Barbara G. until June 7, 2000, after the first one-hour and ten minute fitting appointment with the seamstress. 4.g. The terms of sale state "Claims beyond 7 days, including damage, will be disallowed." The Plaintiff could negate a change in ownership on April 20, 2000 by attributing claims made with Barbara G. on June 7, 2000 to a try-on involving Kathleen G. and no other on April 20, 2000. 5. Admitted in part; denied in part. 5.a. Plaintiffs acknowledgement that bridal shops were queried for either size 12 or size 14 is inconsistent with para 1 ofthe Complaint which states "so they asked that a 10 or 12 be ordered for their daughter". Plaintiff is predicating their Complaint on Defendant supplying a size 16 instead of size "10 or 12" as of November 27,1999, while soliciting another Camp Hill bridal shop for a size "12 or 14" on or about June 12, 2000. 5.b. If Shannon's weight did not vary since November 27, 1999 as alleged and the size 10-12 order request in para 1 of the Complaint were truthful, the Plaintiffs would have been looking for either a size 10 or size 12 and not a size 14 on or about June 12, 2000. In effect, the Plaintiffs are stating in para I of the Complaint that the Honorable Court should rule in their favor because Defendants failed to order a size 10 or 12 in November 1999 (ignoring a signed receipt for a size 16), while willing to accept a size 14 (or size 12..no preference identified) from another bridal shop in June 2000. 6. Admitted. 3 -~- 'II' """",~-,. ,~~I'" '.r",' 7. Admitted in part; denied in part. Defendants admits sending the letter. 8. Admitted in part; denied in part. The gown size 16 chosen by Shannon had relatively little to do with her weight and was wholly dependent on measurements taken on November 27, 1999, whereby the size 16 chosen was 1" too large in the bust. Defendant is without knowledge or information to form a belief as to the truth of Shannon's weight in this averment. Strict proof is demanded at trial, jf relevant. 9. Admitted. 10. Admitted I L Admitted. 12. Admitted. NEW MATTER 13. On November 27, 2000, plaintiff signed a receipt requiring Defendant to deliver a true size 16 and no other. Only after the Civil Trial as stated in the Complaint in para. I did the size specification requested by the Plaintiffs change to "size 10 or size 12" as opposed to size 16 on Shannon's receipt. 14. There are 110 manufacturer sizing standards in the US ready-to-wear women's apparel industry, cousisting of separate size charts for petites, junior, missy, and women's sizes, which vary by manufacturer. Conversely, the bridal industry combines junior and missy sizes, meaning a person with a true missy size range of 10-14 could readily translate to size 12 -16 in a wedding gown, which also varies by manufacturer. This differentiation was explained at the initial meeting on November 12, 1999. Shannon's normal dress size response was recorded as "10-14", which differs from "10-12" cited by Plaintiffs in Complaint.. 15. The most complex variable in the sizing equation is the projected size at the time of the wearing event, which averages nine months in advance. This elapsed time factor is compounded by individual body measurements that do not properly align with the manufacturer size charts. In Shannon's case, the largest controlling dimension was at the waist, meaning the garment would have been one inch too small had she chosen a size 14 on Nov.27, 1999. As of June 8, 2000 Shannon's bustIine based on a second set of measurements indicated a 3" differential, which explains why the top of the size 16 gown was excessive at a June 7, 2000 "fitting" the Plaintiff claims took place during a "try-on" on April 20, 2000. 16. Plaintiffs have created a reverse case against Defendant predicated on the notion that the end size 12 reportedly chosen for Shannon justifies a beginning size 12 rather than size 16 as ordered, under the gnise no variance in "weight" occurred. Strict proof will be required at trial as to the truthfulness of weight related averments made by Plaintiffs, more specifically to prove that no "measurement" related changes occurred subsequent to November 27, 1999. 4 '. "--J e~" 11 . . 17. Defendant denies Plaintiffs averments including "protests" outlined in the original Civil Complaint that Defendant overrode the Plaintiffs, misleading Shannon to ordering a size 16 when "she wears a size 10 (occasionally a 12 depending on the cut of the dress)". Plaintiffs had every opportunity to purchase the size 1 0 sample or place an order for size I 0 if such averments were truthful. Plaintiffi> had every opportunity to equally order a size 12, but it was readily apparent on November 27, 1999 a size 12 would still be 3 inches from zipping at the waist and hip. Plaintiffs were fully aware that the only viable choice as of November 27, 1999 was between a size 14 and size 16 and no other sjzes were considered. No record exists as to any discussion of future body measurement changes on November 27, 1999 that would lead to a conclusion that either a smaller or larger gown size would be anticipated as of August 5, 2000. 18. Defendants denial to purchase two gowns at Defendants expense on January 20, 2000 is the subject of a second series of "protests" by Plaintiffs, as referenced in the original Civil Complaint dated September I, 1999. Defendant effectively would have had to purchase four different dress sizes to accommodate the varying size related averments ( 10-16) in the combined original Civil Complaint and Complaint under adjudication. 19. The first fitting with a seamstress was conducted on June 7, 1999, wherein Shannon was pinned and re-pinned at total of four times. Following the pinnings, a hysterical Mrs. Radle confronted Barbara G, making a series of demands including consideration of a refund Shannon's gown was returned to storage, and Shannon and her mother returned the following day and were re-measured by a senior consnltant. All references to the first fitting with the seamstress on June 7, 2000 and the follow-on visit to the store involving a re-measurement on June 8, 2000 are missing in the Complaint. 20. Defendant avers Plaintiff took selected events that occurred involving Barbara G. on June 7, 2000, and moved said events to April 20, 2000, thus rl<iecting a change in ownership based on the notion that Defendant supplied a size 16 instead of a size 10 or 12. Shannon ended up purchasing a size 12 on June 19, 2000 based on new measurements provided by Mary Anna Conrad, a senior consnltant, on June 8, 2000, 12 days after the first fitting with a seamstress on June 7, 2000, which was cited in the Complaint as having taken place on April 20, 2000. 21. A Civil Complaint is the end result of Plaintiffs assessment on June 7, 2000 that a professional seamstress and former dress maker could not alter the size 16 to Plaintiff's expressed satisfaction. Plaintiff cites in a letter dated June 25, 2000 "it was great concern to us at this point that Greene's seamstress may not, in fact, know how to fix these problems and was telling Barb (daughter of owners) everything would be all right so as not to jeopardize her job!" The letter continues "We felt their was no guarantee that this gown would be fixed properly in time and conld not risk having their seamstress try to fix it at this late date and then not have it fit Shannon properly on her wedding day" . Plaintiffs are not only disavowing true ownership of a purchased gown left in storage until alterations, but is holding Defendant responsible for a personal misperception that a professional seamstress was incapable of providing the same quality custom alterations done numerous times over the past decade. Plaintiffi> will be required to prove at trial that seamstress was incapable of meeting thejr expectations, jf relevant. 22. The size 10 sample in mint condition was available on June 7, 2000 and wonld he exactly one inch smaller in the Bust and Waist, and 1 1/2 " smaller in the hips. At no time did 5 , . ~ " . , ,-, "" '--"' ^~r~" wi" . . Plaintiffs request to exchange the size 16 for the size 10, "Choosing to call 59 shops to locate a size 12 or 14, and proceeded to request more than double the actual cost of the gown in the Complaint, stating they originally asked for a "10 or 12" and received a size 16. 23. Lack of specificity as to the Plaintiffs declaration that either a size 10 or a size 12 be ordered on November 27, 1999 is predicated on an unproven averment that Shannon's weight had not changed since November 27, 1999. While the Defendant did not weigh Shannon Radle nor record or film the various dialogs that occurred, Defendant did re- measure Shannon Radle on June 8, 2000, who had changed to Bust 37", waist 30 1/2", and hip 4U 3/4 ", suggesting Shannon on this date was a true size 12 in the Bust, a true size 16 in the waist, and between a 14 and 16 in the hips in terms of Mori Lee measuring chart. Plaintiffs contention that no alterations were required in the size 12 gown subsequently purchased in Scranton implies either the measurements were in error, or Shannon continued to lose body mass (and possibly weight) after the time of purchase on June 19, 2000 to her wedding on August 5, 2000, or the plaintiff had waist and hip alterations performed while stating in the Complaint the size 12 "fit perfectly at the time of purchase". 24. Plaintiffs assertion that inquiries made to 59 bridal shops for a size 12 or size 14 was predicated on measurements provided by Defendant on June 8, 2000: Bust 37", Waist 30 1/2", Hips 40 3/4". Plaintiffs willingness to accept a size 14 in lieu ofa size 12 was based on the controlling waist measurement increasing 1/2" since November 27, 1999, while a 2" decrease in the bust occurred. Plaintiff subsequently sets forth a different set of size criteria for the Defendant in the Complaint from the other 59 bridal shops, stating a size 16 was supplied when a "10 or 12" was requested. 25. Plaintiffs letter dated June 25, 2000 employs a time compression technique in written averments to create the impression that events that occurred at a later date occurred earlier. The conspicuous omission of any reference to a first fitting conducted on the second floor of a building adjacent to Greene's Hill housing the seamstress on June 7, 2000 is paramount in this regard. If the Plaintiffs averments regarding April 20 are truthful, then all ofthe events cited subsequent to April 20 were contrived by the Defendants, including pinnings and re-measurements that took place on June 7 and June 8 respectively that led to numerous phone calls requesting a size 12 or a size 14. 26. A second fitting was scheduled on June 7, 2000 with My Dang, seamstress at 12:00 PM on June 20, 2000. Plaintiff did not keep the appointment, and did not return to claim the size 16 gown in storage since Apri120, 2000. 27. Plaintiff was advised in writing on July 7, 2000 that "Greene's acted in good faith and fulfilled all aspects of the Terms of Sale", and that size 16 was the proper size Shannon had selected November 27, 1999." Under the terms of sale, ownership transferred from the Defendant to Plaintiffs on April 20, 2000, consistent with the 7 day manufacturer time frame to file claims. Optional custodial possession of garments in storage does not covey gown ownership back to the Defendant, nor predicate ownership based on future satisfuction or other criteria beyond such time a purchase is fully paid, delivered, and accepted by Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs were under no obligation to use either in-house or external seamstress referrals, nor was the Defendant legally liable for the quality of work and attendant satisfuction or dissatisfaction of alterations performed by a professional seamstress. 6 -"-- ,..... HI . . . , . 28. The Defendant, acting as representative for the manufucturer, was legally bound to accept the garment as long as it met the specifications of the order placed on behalf of the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff was contractually bound to remit payment in full to the Defendant upon delivery and acceptance without claims,. Nothing in the Terms of Sale imply the size ordered by the Plaintiff would constitute a perfect fit, given a wide variance in body measurements from the manufucturers size chart in the general population. While the Defendant recognizes that changes in body measurements after the order is placed vary proportional to elapsed time to the wearing event, the ouly recourse for the Plaintiff was to rely on custom alterations. The Plaintiff choose instead to inject numerous unproven averments into the equation, causing the Defendant to go to extraordinary detail to demonstrate to the Honorable Court the Plaintiff had correctly chosen the correct size as of the time of purchase, and had substantially altered both events and timing of events to create the illusion the Defendant had mislead Plaintiffs into choosing an improper size, arguing that no change in weight had occurred from the onset. 29. Processes described herein have been repeated thousands of times over a forty year tenure by the Defendant. It is the contention ofthe Defendant that innuendo, misinformati(lll, unsupported allegations, omissions, and other unproven averments by the Plaintiffs, distort the good faith intent of the Defendant to provide precisely what the Plaintiff ordered, as well as any semblance of concern to remedy attendant body measurement changes using a professional seamstresses proficient in complex bridal alterations. It is the belief of the Defendant that the seamstress, given the opportunity by Plaintiffs, would have performed the same quality of expert alterations that annually draw appreciative reviews primarily where significant changes in weight and/or body measurements occur prior to the wearing event. 30. Shannon's final measurements were not identical to her starting measurements, even if her weight remained constant as cited by Plaintiffs. 31. Both the Plaintiffs size 16 wedding gown and the sample were compared against the manufacturer's size chart by the Defendant to assure accuracy. Both gowns, and size charts used to make sizing determinations were deemed 100% accurate by Kathleen Greene, owner. The deviance in measuring Shannon among the consultants was viewed to be fractionally insignificant, resulting in the conclusion that a 3" inch deviation from a size 16 occurred in the bust between November 27, 1999 and June 8, 2000. 32. Defendant concurs that had Shannon's measurements been the same on November 27, 1999 as on June 8, 2000 as alleged by Plaintiffil, a size 14 and would have been a proper choice consideration. Defendant concurs that had Shannon's measurements been less than as measured on June 8, 2000, a size 12 would have been the next proper choice consideratiolL 33. Plaintiff had one and ouly one sizing choice on November 27, 1999. Plaintiff chose size 16. Defendant properly delivered a true size 16 on April 20, 2000 and plaintiff accepted on that date and the garment placed in storage. 34. Wherefore, the Defendant respectfully requests that this Honorable Court find in favor of the Defendant and against the Plaintiffs.
