JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
PLAINTIFFS' REPLY TO DEFENDANT'S NEW MATTER
AND NOW comes the Plaintiffs, by and through their attorneys, Angino & Rovner, P.C.,
and hereby replies to the New Matter of Defendant as foliows:
21. Denied. This averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent that a response may be deemed proper, it is specifically denied that
Plaintiffs complaint fails to set forth a cause of action upon which relief can be granted. To the
contrary, Plaintiff s Complaint specifically and sufficiently pleads a cause of action for negligence
in the operation of a motor vehicle against the Defendant.
22. This averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is required.
To the extent that a response may be deemed proper, it is admitted that the Pennsylvania Motor
Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law, 75 PaC.SA ~ 1701 et. seq. would be applicable to the motor
vehicle accident which gave rise to Plaintiffs' claim.
23. This averment is a mixed conclusion of fact and law to which no responsive
pleading is required. To the extent that a response may be deemed proper, it is specifically denied
that Plaintiffs' claims are barred or limited by the application of the limited tort option pursuant to
75 Pa.C.S.A. ~1705 et. sea. To the extent that a further response may be deemed proper, it is
averred that Plaintiff Patricia Lujanac's injuries resulted in a serious impainnent of bodily function
resulting in functional deficits in her normal daily activities for which she may seek to recover.

This averment is a conclusory statement unsupported by any factual statements. To

accident or any of Plaintiff s injuries were caused in whole or in part by any alleged negligence of
an unidentified persons or entities. To the contrary, it is averred that all of Plaintiffs injuries and
the motor vehicle accident were caused by the negligent conduct of the Defendant as set forth in
Plaintiffs' Complaint.
25. This averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is required.
To the extent that a further response may be deemed appropriate, it is specifically denied that
Defendant Trostle's negligence as set forth in Plaintiffs' Complaint was not the direct and
proximate cause of the injuries and damages sustained by the Plaintiffs. To the contrary, it is
averred that Plaintiff Patricia and Paul Lujanac's injuries were the direct and proximate result of the
Defendant's negligence as set forth in the Plaintiff s Complaint.
26. Denied. This averment is a conclusory statement unsupported by any factual
statements and therefore no further response is required. To the extent that a further response may
he deemed appropriate, it is specifically denied that the accident resulting in Plaintiffs injuries was
in any way an act of God or beyond the forces of control of the Defendant Trostle. To the contrary,
it is averred that the accident occurred as a result of the negligent conduct of Defendant Trostle in
operating his motor vehicle as set forth in Plaintiffs' Complaint.
27. Denied. This averment is a conclusory statement unsupported by any factual
statements and therefore no further response is required. To the extent that a further response may
,.J
,
be deemed appropriate, it is specifically denied that the accident resulting in Plaintiffs injuries was
in any way an unavoidable accident. To the contrary, it is averred that the accident occurred as a

result of the negligent conduct of Defendant Trostle in operating his motor vehicle as set forth in
Plaintiffs' Complaint.
28. This averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is required.
To the extent that a response may be deemed proper, it is specifically denied that the sudden
emergency doctrine is in any way applicable to the facts giving rise to Plaintiffs' cause of action.
To the contrary, it is averred that the accident occurred as a result of the negligent conduct of
Defendant Trostle in operating his motor vehicle as set forth in Plaintiffs' Complaint.
29. Denied. This averment is a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is
required. To the extent that a response may be deemed proper, it is specifically denied that Plaintiff
Patricia Lujanac or Paul L. Lujanac were negligent in any manner in the happening of the accident.
Plaintiff Patricia Lujanac was a right front seat passenger in her husband's car and therefore was not
capable of any negligent conduct. Plaintiff Paul L. Lujanac was driving his vehicle in a safe and
prudent manner and had control over his vehicle until the Defendant crossed over the center line
striking his vehicle and forcing it to the curb. It is specifically denied that either Plaintiff Paul L. or
Patricia Lujanac were negligent in any manner upon the cause of action stated in Plaintiffs'
Complaint. Therefore, it is denied that the Pennsylvania Comparative Negligence Act is in any way
applicable to their claim.
30. This averment is a conculsion of law to which no responsive pleading is required.
To the extent that a response may be deemed proper, it is specifically denied that Plaintiffs' claims
were barred by the statute of limitations. Plaintiffs' claims arose out of a motor vehicle accident on
April 11, 1999 with Plaintiffs' Complaint being filed on March 20, 2001 and served on the
Defendant well within the two-year statute oflimitations.
