CROSS, v. WENDY L. MARPOE, IN CUSTODY Defendant CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report: 1. The pertinent information concerning the child who is the subject of this litigation is as follows: NAME DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN THE CUSTODY OF Kimber L. Cross June 6, 1994 Mother 2. A Custody Conciliation Conference was reconvened on September 17, 2002 with the following individuals in attendance: the Father, Michael W. Cross, and his counsel, Barbara Sumple-Sullivan, Esquire; the Mother, Wendy L. Marpoe, and her counsel, Joan Carey, Esquire. The Conference was reconvened as part of an agreement with the parties at the Conciliation Conference of August 5, 2002. 3. Mother's circumstances: Since the last Conference, Mother has relocated from her father's home to a two (2) bedroom apartment where she reportedly resides alone with Kimber. This apartment is located in Carlisle. Kimber is now enrolled in the Carlisle Area School District and continues to attend the Tri-Community School through the Capital Area Intermediate Unit. There were delays in Kimber's attendance in school at the beginning of the school year once again because of difficulties with the necessary paperwork when Mother moved from the South Middleton School District to the Carlisle School District. According to the School District records, Kimber had missed two (2) days of school this year, one of which was excused for a pediatric appointment. Mother is presently unemployed. Mother signed a lease for this apartment and moved in on August 27, 2002. She reports the term of the lease is one (1) year. Mother presently has no telephone. However, she intends to purchase additional minutes for use on her cellular phone. -.~11 ~., ~_ .,"""'1: _. ,'w " . . - - ._v ,/ NO. 01-3449 CIVIL TERM Mother has recently attempted to apply for services from the Cumberland County MH/MR program. She does not recall with whom she spoke, however states that she has filled out paperwork to apply for services. By her description, it appears that they may be attempting to qualify Kimber for wraparound services and in-home supports to assist the Mother. Mother reports that for prescreening services, Kimber was taken by the paternal grandmother to an appointment with a physician in Camp Hill, however Mother did not know the name of the physician who completed the exam. It may be that this exam was to achieve EPSDT funding for wraparound services for this child. Mother insists that she will continue to reside at this address and has stabilized her life circumstances. She reports that she continues to have a PFA against the Father of her two year old child but that the violence has not continued. She continues to have contact with this man incident to custodial exchanges for the two year old. 4. Father's circumstances: Father continues to work first shift (7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.) as an electrician. He remains concerned about Kimber's school attendance and the unstable residential circumstances that have pervaded her life over the last several months. Because Kimber missed 27% school days between December 12, 2001 and her last school attendance on May 15, 2002, for the 2001-02 school year, it is Father's position that Kimber is not able to make the progress that she should be able to make if she were in school on a regular basis. 5. After conference with counsel and the parties, it was decided that Kimber would continue to live primarily with her Mother. However, counsel for Father requested an additional Conciliation Conference to be scheduled in January 2003 to follow-up on whether Mother has managed to maintain a stable residential arrangement and whether Kimber has had consistent school attendance. In the event that Mother cannot provide for a stable residential environment and consistent attendance at school, Father will seek primary custody of the child. He acknowledges that he would need two (2) weeks notice to make arrangements for assistance in caring for Kimber. In particular, he will need assistance in the morning to help her get up and ready for school and get on the bus. It is expected that the paternal grandmother may be at least a resource for some of these needs should these circumstances arise once again. 3.

CROSS, Plaintiff : IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS : CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA v. : CIVIL ACTION - CUSTODY WENDY L. MARPOE, Defendant : DOCKET NO. 01-3449 PLAINTIFF'S PETITION FOR ADDITIONAL SANCTIONS 1. Petitioner is Plaintiff, Michael W. Cross, an individual whose mailing address is 18 Shaub Drive, Landisburg, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17040. 2. Respondent is Defendant, Wendy 1. Marpoe, an individual residing at 6908 Veterans Way, Ickesburg, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17037. 3. Petitioner and Respondent are the natural parents of two (2) minor children. William C. Cross "Cody," born March 21,1993 and Kimber 1. Cross, born June 6,1994. 4. On November 17, 2005, Petitioner filed a Petition for Contempt because of continuing problems with Respondent, which Petitioner believed to be significantly impacting the best interest of Cody. This Petition also sought redress of Respondent's conduct during the Summer of 2005, including her willful failure to comply with the custody Order by not returning Cody to Petitioner several days after her custodial period ended. 1 Ii Ii,. ::,..~po ,_;~ ~"'''''''''' ~,_,~ _ _ _, _~.._'" ~,",~,,,,,_ .__~, '.' ..~ .,., _ . '"'~ .~_~_, 5. Petitioner then filed an Amendment to the above pending Petition for Contempt to include Respondent's failure to arrange an appointment with the parties' son's counselor, Jill Boyd, to discuss how the parties can be helpful to the child's care and attend therapeutic family counseling as required by this Court's previous Order dated January 4, 2006. 6. A hearing was held before the Court on February 13, 2006 and an Order was entered February 22, 2005 finding Respondent in contempt. The Order also set forth four terms which Respondent could meet in order to purge the contempt. 7. Paragraph (b) of the February 22,2005 Order provided: (b) within seven days providing Michael W. Cross a written statement of her hours of work so that he may arrange for therapeutic family counseling when he is not working, 8. Respondent has failed to act in accordance with Paragraph (b) of the February 22, 2005 Order by failing to provide Petitioner or his counsel with a written statement of her work hours on or before March 1, 2006. 9. Paragraph (c) of the February 22,2005 Order provided: ( c) attending three therapeutic family counseling sessions with the father which he shall schedule with a provider of his choice, and notify her of the place, date and time. 2 ~~~,,__W_ '" ,~ ." ,""',"f-~'Y"'J ,\!_,,"_~-~ '.,- "'_~_1"~1-Y"~ ''''~',f' '."'_ ",~..1~"~~~ ___~,""_,,,.,-__~~,_"~, , ',~_=__ ifl- ,', ,..,,, ..<" ,_ " ,_._ ~ , 10. Since Petitioner did not receive a written statement of Respondent's work hours by March 1,2006, he nonetheless attempted to schedule the therapeutic family counseling with Christian Services Counseling Center for March 16, 2006 at 5:30 p.m. Notice of this place, date and time were provided to Respondent by letter dated March 8, 2006, which was sent Certified Mail and also by regular mail with a Certificate of Mailing. A true and correct copy ofthe letter is attached hereto as Exhibit A. 11. Paragraph (d) of the February 22, 2006 Order provided: (d) within forty-five days paying Michael W. Cross $250.00 towards his counsel fees. 12. Respondent was to pay to Petitioner Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250.00) towards counsel fees on or before April 8, 2006. To date, no payment has been made. 13. Respondent has failed to purge the contempt. 14. In light of the fact that the February 22, 2006 Order did not delineate a punitive finding of jail, fine or other remedy as a consequence of the contempt, Plaintiff is requesting a hearing be scheduled: a. To fine and/or otherwise incarcerate Respondent for said contempt; b. To reimburse all counsel fees incurred by Petitioner in addition to the Two Hundred Fifty Dollars ($250.00) owed to Petitioner under the February 22, 2006 Order; 3 I I I ! i~),__ ,,~ _", ,"0 ''''''""~.,.-_,_,_<>."<,!,-,,,,.'''*_"'-,~H''!T'-o,,!___,'_'''''''''_'"''~__ _. ,_,=,","_~ _"='~___,,",_ 0.0- .',', _ _ ,., c.

Marpoe EXHIBIT I f{J #,;J W 'dIU) (p f t' e> Given that you have been successful in postponing the hearing until June 29, 2006, we need some verification and commitment from you that your client will be returning Cody at the conclusion of her custodial periods as set forth in the existing order once' school is recessed for summer, As you may know, your client took it upon herse1fto simply keep or otherwise take custody ofeody last summer in violation of the order. Also, neither I nor my client want to deal with her disobedience again, Please remind her of her transportation requirements under the order. Also, given that there is no school and the order is worded that she would have Cody mid-week from after school on Wednesday to Thursday mornings, this period of custody would seem to be relinquished once school is recessed, What is your interpretation on this mid-week visitation date after school concludes? Tfyou believe your client is entitled to same, what hours are you proposing? Please confirm transportation. Please confirm by a written response so there is no misunderstanding by your client. Dear:Mr. Wolf: Please know that your Mj)tion for continuance is blatantly incorrect: 1) First, your client neve. notified my client of her address change. 2) Your client received notice of the Hearing on April 26, 2005 as evidenced by the certified mail card not May 1,2006 as you plead. 3) The Pre-trial was duly filed and served in accordance with the Rules to your client's "new" address. 4) Your client failed to file her Pre-trial as was specifically directed in the Order of April 21 st. Please forward your Pre-trial no later than May 19th since I will need to see same to adequately prepare for the hearing, I feel this is reasonable since the filit"lg was due last week. Nathan C. Wolf, Esquire May 11,2006 Page 2 I look forward to immediate receipt of the check for $250.00 by May 26, 2006.

The Plaintiff is Michael W. Cross (hereinafter referred to as "Father"), who currently resides at 18 Shaub Drive, Landisburg, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17040. 2. The Defendant is Wendy L. Marpoe (hereinafter referred to as "Mother"), who currently resides at 6908 Vetrans Way, Ickesburg, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17037. 3. Plaintiff seeks to amend Defendant's periods of partial physical custody of the following child: NAME PRESENT RESIDENCE DATE OF BIRTH William C. Cross 18 Shaub Drive Landisburg, P A 3/21/1993 The child is currently in the primary physical custody of Father. Father resides at the address referenced above. q{' - '-"""'."..--- - .-- . ,_.~ , ", ,~ ~"'" . - , - During the last five years, the child has resided with the following persons and at the following addresses: PERSONS Father, Julie Cross (Father's Fiance), Breeann Longenecker (Father's Step-Daughter) and the child Father, Julie Cross (Father's Wife), Breeann Longenecker (Father's Step-Daughter) and the child ADDRESSES DATES 231 Walnut Level Road 2000 - 2004 New Cumberland, P A 17070 RR 2 Box 933 Cornman Lane Landisburg, P A 17040 January, 2004 to Present (Father and Father's Fiance married 2/2004) Address now known as: 18 Shaub Drive Landisburg, P A 17040 The Father of the child is Michael W. Cross, currently residing at 18 Shaub Drive, Landisburg, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17040. The Mother of the child is Wendy L. Marpoe, currently residing at 6908 Veterans Way, Ickesburg, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17037. The parties are currently divorced from each other. 4. The relationship of the Petitioner to the child is that of Father. The Petitioner currently resides with his Wife, Julie Cross, his Step-Daughter, Breeann Longenecker, and the child. 5. The relationship of the Respondent to the child is that of Mother. The Respondent - -, -- ~, -~",,^ ~~ 2 -,..,- '- currently resides with her Husband, Travis Marpoe, she and her Husband's children, Kyle, Brennen and Lindsay Marpoe, the parties' daughter, Kimber L. Cross and third party, Bill Buttermore. 6. Petitioner and Respondent had previously participated in a custody proceeding in this Court. A copy of the Custody Order dated September 24,2002, is attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein by reference. Mother had since filed a Petition to ModifY the September 24,2002 Order. After a Conciliation was held on the Petition for Modification, an Order was entered on August 9, 2005. A true and correct copy of the Custody Order dated August 9, 2005 is attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and is incorporated herein by reference. However, actual hearing has not occurred on Mother's Petition to ModifY since at a hearing on contempt charges, Mother indicated she was happy with the present schedule. 7. Petitioner has no information of a custody proceeding concerning the child pending in a Court of this Commonwealth. 8. Petitioner does not know of a person not a party to the proceedings who has physical custody of the child or claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to the child. 9. The best interest and permanent welfare of the child will be served by granting the relief requested because Father can provide a stable, healthy, supportive and loving enviromnent for the child. The child continues to struggle in school academically and socially and Father feels that the weeknight visits are disruptive for the child.

CROSS, v. WENDY L. MARPOE, Defendant CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report: 1. The pertinent information conceming the child who is the subject of this litigation is as follows: NAME DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN THE CUSTODY OF Kimber L. Cross June 6, 1994 Mother 2. A Custody Conciliation Conference was reconvened on September 17, 2002 with the following individuals in attendance: the Father, Michael W. Cross, and his counsel, Barbara Sumple-Sullivan, Esquire; the Mother, Wendy L. Marpoe, and her counsel, Joan . Carey, Esquire. The Conference was reconvened as part of an agreement with the parties at the Conciliation Conference of August 5, 2002. 3. Mother's circumstances: Since the last Conference, Mother has relocated from her father's home to a two (2) bedroom apartment where she reportedly resides alone with Kiniber. This apartment is located in Carlisle. Kimber is now enrolled in the Carlisle Area School District and continues to attend the Tri-Community School through the Capital Area Intermediate Unit. There were delays in Kimber's attendance in school at the beginning of the school year once again because of difficulties with the necessary paperwork when Mother moved from the South Middleton School District to the Carlisle School District. According to the School District records, Kimber had missed two (2) days of school this year, one of which was excused for a pediatric appointment. Mother is presently unemployed. Mother signed a lease for this apartment and moved in on August 27, 2002. She reports the term of the lease is one (1) year. Mother presently has no telephone. However, she intends to purchase additional minutes for use on her cellular phone. '\>4,r1;;;)' "'" ,i. ., ",~:,:"..,;,':t' " ,- " ___, . ~' __, ,r r .' _ .-.. '" - -, ~ . NO. 01-3449 CIVIL TERM Mother has recently attempted to apply for services from the Cumberland County MH/MR program. She does not recall with whom she spoke, however states that she has filled out paperwork to apply for services. By her description, it appears that they may be attempting to qualify Kimber for wraparound services and in-home supports to assist the Mother. Mother reports that for prescreening services, Kimber was taken by the patemal grandmother to an appointment with a physician in Camp Hill, however Mother did not know the name of the physician who completed the exam. It may be that this exam was to achieve EPSDT funding for wraparound services for this child. Mother insists that she will continue to reside at this address and has stabilized her life circumstances. She reports that she continues to have a PFA against the Father of her two year old child but that the violence has not continued. She continues to have contact with this man incident to custodial exchanges for the two year old. 4. Father's circumstances: Father continues to work first shift (7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.) as an electrician. He remains concerned about Kimber's school attendance and the unstable residential circumstances that have pervaded her life over the last several months. Because Kimber missed 27'h school days between December 12, 2001 and her last school attendance on May 15, 2002, for the 2001-02 school year, it is Father's position that Kimber is not able to make the progress that she should be able to make if she were in school on a regular basis. 5. After conference with counsel and the parties, it was decided that Kimber would continue to live primarily with her Mother. However, counsel for Father requested an additional Conciliation Conference to be scheduled in January 2003 to follow-up on whether Mother has managed to maintain a stable residential arrangement and whether Kimber has had consistent school attendance. In the event that Mother cannot provide for a stable residential environment and consistent attendance at school, Father will seek primary custody of the child. He acknowledges that he would. need two (2) weeks notice to make arrangements for assistance in caring for Kimber. In particular, he will need assistance in the morning to help her get up and ready for school and get on the bus. It is expected that the paternal grandmother may be at least a resource for some of these needs should these circumstances arise once again. 3. The parties reached an agreement in the fo n Order as attached. 9/J,o / () 1--- Date Melissa Peel Greevy, Custody Conciliator :162973 """, '-',' , i'-" .-- ~, " ,,"~~1!W, 'C.rn. , ':- . ~ ,',' 00-," ,..,., .'~ ,"' ~ , ,," - EXHIBIT "B" Plaintiff !

Plaintiff has not participated as a party or witness, or in another capacity, in other litigation concerning the custody of the children in this or another court. 12. At the time of the parties' divorce in 1994, no order regarding custody was entered. Mother determined when Father would be the primary caretaker of Cody. 13. Cody was in Father's primary care while he attended Kindergarten at the West Shore School District. After Kindergarten, Mother wanted Cody returned to Father. Because Father was 4 }~~l>, ',' ~""::"'~'.-'0, ~;,X.- ^"_"~_,, "'~' o"~--.' '-' ':' _,,~, "<" "'\'J~~'''', ":"^ r"'" , ,.",,', '1-' H~ unaware of his rights, he abided by Mother's request. Mother refused to return the child to Father for the following academic year. 14. While living with Mother during the 1999-2000 academic year, Cody attended two different elementary schools (Middlesex and Hamilton) in the Carlisle School District for fIrst grade. 15. After first grade ended, Mother once again allowed Father to be the primary caretaker of Cody so that he could once again attend the West Shore School District. After three weeks, Mother took Cody back to her primary care. 16. In the Fall of 2000, Cody started second grade in Newville. Once again, Mother decided to move out of Cody's school district to Martinsburg. On or about March 12,2000, Mother transferred primary care of Cody to Father. Cody has been in Father's primary care since this time and is presently emolled in the West Shore School District fInishing second grade and will be emolled in third grade. 17. The parties' other child, Kimber, has special needs in that she is autistic. 18. Father has no information of a custody proceeding concerning the children pending in any court of this Commonwealth. 19. Father does not know of a person not a party to the proceedings who has physical custody of the children or claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to the children. 5 "I\l, '<-',"""~" ,-,"; ';',,-' . ~'--' ,- " '--" 20. The best interest and permanent welfare of the children will be served by this Honorable Court by confirming the status quo wherein Father is the primary custodian for Cody and Mother is the primary custodian for Kimber. Father can provide a stable, loving and less violent enviromnent for Cody than Mother. Cody needs stability in a single home and school. Mother can best meet the needs of Kimber as a stay at home mother. However, Father desires that this Honorable Court enter an order mandating Mother to maintain Kimber in special education classes so as to offer her as much stimulation and training as available to meet her needs, as well as provide regular medical, dental and eye care for her. 21. Each parent whose parental rights to the children have not been terminated and the person who has physical custody of the children have been named as parties to this action. WHEREFORE, the Plaintiff requests the Court to confirm the status quo and grant the parties shared legal custody of the children, grant Plaintiff primary custody of the William C. Cross and Defendant primary custody of Kimber Cross. Defendant shall be granted rights of partial physical custody of William C. Cross as the parties can agree and Plaintiff shall be granted rights of partial physical custody of Kimber Cross as the parties can agree.

The Plaintiffis Michael W. Cross (hereinafterreferred to as "Father"), who currently resides at 231 Walnut Level Road, New Cumberland, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, 17070. 2. The Defendant is Wendy L. Marpoe (hereinafter referred to as "Mother"),who has mailing address at 70 West South Street, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013. 3. Plaintiff seeks legal and primary physical custody of the following child: NAME PRESENT RESIDENCE DATE OF BIRTH Kimber L. Cross 70 West South St. Carlisle, PA 17013 06/06/1994 4. The child was not born out of wedlock. 5. Plaintiff and Defendant are the natural parents of two children being William C. Cross (date of birth March 21, 1993) and Kimber L. Cross (date of birth June 6, 1994). On or about 1 "'-~ . , - ~- ,~ ' - June 1,2001, Father had filed a complaint in custody to this docket seeking reaffirmation of the parties' shared legal custody and to confirm primary physical custody ofthe parties' son, William C. (known as "Cody") Cross, which child had been placed and removed by Mother in Father's home on various occasions. On July 31, 2001, a Temporary Order of Court was entered which granted primary custody of Cody with Father and Kimber with Mother. Because Kimber is an autistic child of significant needs and Mother was at home, Father did not seek primary custody of his daughter but rather secured in the Order a specific requirement that the parent provide for the child in his or her custody such psychological and educational services as may be necessary for the child in their primary custody. A copy of the Temporary Order dated July 31, 2001 is marked as Exhibit "A," attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein. 6. Mother has failed to meet the needs of Kimber, which has been in her custody during the last year. She has failed to have her remain enrolled and attend school on a consistent basis. Mother's failure to maintain the consistency with the child is resulting in her becoming further delayed developmentally. Due to Mother's volatile life style, the child also does not have a stable home enviromnent. Father is seeking physical custody of Kimber L. Cross. 7. During the past five (5) years, Kimber L. Cross has resided with the following persons at the following addresses: DATES ADDRESSES NAMES OF PERSONS IN HOUSEHOLD Present Physical location: unknown Mailing address: 70 West South Street Carlisle, P A 17013 Unknown 2 I; "~>?-,,;: -,:,;;,,,,,,''IF'-_~ i~ ',:" ,~,~, _ ':' ",:nH ':;,~" :i,"':'- ,:" :;:'~ ,","~ ~""':-'"I "_ "," "_ -',,''-,~ ',"~ _ ~ ._' '^_' ."'.

The child is in need of significant intervention, which might include the need for a placement at a special school.

Petitioner is Plaintiff, Michael W. Cross, an individual whose mailing address is RR #2, Box 933, Landisburg, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17040. 2. Respondent is Defendant, Wendy L. Marpoe, an individual residing at 6908 Veterans Way, Ickesburg, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17037. 3. The parties were married and were divorced in 1994. 4. Petitioner and Respondent are the natural parents of two (2) minor children. William C. Cross "Cody," born March 21, 1993 and Kimber L. Cross, born June 6, 1994. 5. On or about June 5, 2001, Petitioner began this action by filing a Custody 1 '~- , -I ,""f'.", ;,'""," .:c- ,,"_~ ',~ ,C"-,',.' -_C''''''~';-''" '~,~"_"'__'" -' -,.,'- " -'.', , ',-, ~~,- ~ ' I'~ Complaint seeking primary custody of the parties' son with him and primary custody of the parties' daughter with Respondent. 6. On September 24, 2002, a custody order was entered which awarded the parties shared legal custody, Father primary physical custody of Cody and Mother primary physical custody of Kimber. Mother was also awarded temporary physical custody of Cody one (1) weekend per month and any other times as the parties could agree upon and Father was awarded temporary physical custody of Kimber at such times as the parties could agree upon. The order also set forth that holidays and summer were to be equally shared between the parties. A true and correct copy of this order is attached hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated herein by reference. 7. On or about June 30, 2005, Mother filed a Petition to ModifY the September 24, 2002 Order, claiming a significant change in the circumstances since the last order. 8. The parties attended a Custody Conciliation on July 29, 2005, with Conciliator Greevy. Following the Conciliation, an order was entered on August 9, 2005, setting forth that legal custody would be shared between the parties, that Father would remain primary custodian of Cody and that Mother would have temporary physical custody of Cody on alternating weekends, Wednesday overnights and specific days for the remainder of the summer. 9. The August 9, 2005, order further reserved Father's right to proceed with a Petition for Contempt for Mother's conduct during the Summer, 2005 and the Custody 2 r;<:.'"., ," - ~ F.' .,c._ ,_',__, ","_';:' ":'_;'__'.' :Y,' '.. ,~ - - -. . ,-, ','-,^" '.' - ',-", ,-,,-~,-. . . -~", -.' . - '- ~ n _ _ ~ Conciliation Conference shall reconvene on January 6, 2006 with Custody Conciliator Greevy. This Custody Conciliation Conference is still pending. 10. Because of continuing problems with Respondent which Petitioner believes is significantly impacting the child, Petitioner seeks redress of Respondent' s conduct during the SUmIIler of2005, including her willful failure to comply with the custody order by not returning the parties' child, Cody, to Petitioner several days after her custodial period ended. 11. In support of this Petition, Petitioner avers that, as set forth in the Order, the parties had mutually agreed that they would attempt a week on week off schedule for the Summer of2005 to accommodate Cody's summer school. 12. Respondent was to enjoy custody of Cody from June 12,2005 until June 19, 2005. During this custodial period, Respondent advised Petitioner that she was not going to return the child to him on June 19, 2005. 13. After Petitioner's counsel became involved, Respondent returned the child on June 19, 2005. Respondent claimed that Petitioner misunderstood her intention. 14. Then, during Petitioner's week of June 19, 2005 through June 26,2005, Respondent took the child from a local carnival while he was walking with his step-sister and friends, Respondent again refused to return him to Petitioner. 3 !~,>~ ,I"~ ';"-','" _+"hc'_'.O.'.. , ,--'''',-,"-, ",',"",'C"-- I"" 15. When Petitioner appeared at Respondent's home to retrieve the child, Respondent refused and further filed a criminal harassment action against him for coming to her home. 16. After Petitioner's counsel again became involved and sought intercession through Respondent's counsel, Respondent returned the child on July 3,2005, but not at the agreed upon place or time. 17. Respondent continues to act without consideration of Petitioner or in violation of the existing Order, including the legal custody provisions. 18. On or about September 15, 2005, Respondent had taken the child to the doctor's office during her custodial period without the prior knowledge or consent of Petitioner when there was no emergency. It is believed that the review was for alleged abuse issues; however, the purpose was not disclosed to Petitioner. 19. On or about Friday, September 23,2005, Respondent allowed the child to leave school early allegedly being "sick." Respondent then, in violation the Order, allowed the child to travel to New York and Delaware with a third party and without the knowledge or approval of Petitioner. The individual accompanying the child was the same person discussed at the prior conciliation as a person Petitioner did not want the child alone with. It was clearly known by the Respondent that Petitioner forbid the child to be in this third party's custody. 4 !:" ." '_'0, ,~, .' , "_, -"'-~-"C',~s", .'ft,.

To schedule make up time for custodial days lost by Petitioner with his child; and c. To enter judgment against Respondent for Petitioner's counsel fees incurred in the preparation, filing, and hearing of this Petition.

" Plaintiff IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA NO. 01-3449 CIVIL TERM CIVIL ACTION - LAW IN CUSTODY MICHAEL W. CROSS, v. WENDY L MARPOE, Defendant CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report: 1. The pertinent information concerning the child who is the subject of this litigation is as follows: NAME DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN THE CUSTODY OF Kimber L. Cross June6,1994 Mother 2. A Custody Conciliation Conference was reconvened on September 17, 2002 with the fOllowing individuals in attendance: the Father, Michael W. Cross, and his counsel, Barbara Sumple-Sullivan, Esquire; the Mother, Wendy L. Marpoe, and her counsel, Joan Carey, Esquire. The Conference was reconvened as part of an agreement with the parties at the Conciliation Conference of August 5, 2002. 3. Mother's circumstances: Since the last Conference, Mother has relocated from her father's home to a two (2) bedroom apartment where she reportedly resides alone with Kimber. This apartment is located in Carlisle. Kimber is now enrolled in the Carlisle Area School District and continues to attend the Tri-Community School through the Capital Area Intermediate Unit. There were delays in Kimber's attendance in school at the beginning of the school year once again because of difficulties with the necessary paperwork when Mother moved from the South Middleton School District to the Carlisle School District. According to the School District records, Kimber had missed two (2) days of school this year, one of which was excused for a pediatric appointment. Mother is presently unemployed. Mother signed a lease for this apartment and moved in on August 27, 2002. She reports the term of the lease is one (1) year. Mother presently has no telephone. However, she intends to purchase additional minutes for use on l'1er cellular phone. ':'''"%''.. _r_., __~_, <~- - - +,1'~~ - NO. 01-3449 CIVIL TERM Mother has recently attempted to apply for services from the Cumberland County MH/MR program. She does not recall with whom she spoke, however states that she has filled out paperwork to apply for services. By her description, it appears that they may be attempting to qualify Kimber for wraparound services and in-home supports to assist the Mother. Mother reports that for prescreening services, Kimber was taken by the paternal grandmother to an appointment with a physician in Camp Hill, however Mother did not know the name of the physician who completed the exam. It may be that this exam was to achieve EPSDT funding for wraparound services for this child. Mother insists that she will continue to reside at this address and has stabilized her life circumstances. She reports that she continues to have a PFA against the Father of her two year old child but that the violence has not continued. She continues to have contact with this man incident to custodial exchanges for the two year old. 4. Father's circumstances: Father continues to work first shift (7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.) as an electrician. He remains concerned about Kimber's school attendance and the unstable residential circumstances that have pervaded her life over the last several months. Because Kimber missed 27% school days between December 12, 2001 and her last school attendance on May 15, 2002, for the 2001-02 school year, it is Father's position that Kimber is not able to make the progress that she should be able to make if she were in school on a regular basis. 5. After conference with counsel and the parties, it was decided that Kimber would continue to live primarily with her Mother. However, counsel for Father requested an additional Conciliation Conference to be scheduled in January 2003 to followcup on whether Mother has managed to maintain a stable residential arrangement and whether Kimber has had consistent school attendance. In the event that Mother cannot provide for a stable residential environment and consistent attendance at school, Father will seek primary custody of the child. He acknowledges that he would need two (2) weeks notice to make arrangements for assistance in caring for Kimber. In particular, he will need assistance in the morning to help her get up and ready for school and get on the bus. It is expected that the paternal grandmother may be at least a resource for some of these needs should these circumstances arise once again. 3.

A hearing is presently scheduled before the Court on February 13, 2006 concerning the prior contempts. 6.

Petitioner's counsel's first attempt at coordinating counseling with Respondent's counsel was by letter dated December 23,2005, within a week of the conciliation conference on December 16, 2005, once insurance coverage was evaluated. The letter provided names and contact information of counselors for Respondent to choose from. No response was received. A true and correct copy of the letter is attached hereto as Exhibit "B." 11.

CROSS, Plaintiff FEB 0 12006 _1:AY-,~,,~c ~~~-~J : IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS : CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA v. : CIVIL ACTION - CUSTODY WENDY L. MARPOE, Defendant : DOCKET NO. 01-3449 PLAINTIFF'S MEMORANDUM STATEMENT OF mSTORY OF THE CASE: The parties are the natural parents of two (2) minor children, William C. Cross "Cody" (Born March 21, 1993) and Kimber L. Cross (Born June 6, 1994). The parties were married and divorced in 1994. Father and Mother have each since remarried. Prior to the present 2005 filings, the custody of the children had been controlled by the Custody Order of September 24, 2002. That Order confirmed the custodial arrangement existing almost from the date of the parties' separation. Father has had primary physical custody of the parties' son, Cody, and Mother had primary custody of the daughter, Kimber. The Order of September 24, 2002 confirmed Father's primary custody and provided Mother with custody of Cody one weekend per month and at other times as the parties could agree. Father was awarded partial custody of Kimber as the parties can agree. This Order was the result of litigation which had previously been initiated by Father to address Mother's failures to meet the educational and medical needs of the minor child, Kimber, a child who is profoundly disabled. Father has not had any . --', "'"'0-__ '"" -,,,, "- ,"_~ ' _, _0"'.-'"",:'" _,,_,__~~~, ;",.,- - substantive contact with Kimber and she is not the subject of any of the petitions currently pending before the court. In accordance with the 2002 order, Father had attempted to allow Mother additional time with Cody, especially since she relocated to Perry County nearer to Father's residence. Trouble connnenced brewing when Father declined Mother's demand for the 2005 Memorial Day holiday due to existing plans. The parties discussed implementing a week on/week off schedule during the summer provided arrangements could be made to ensure that Cody would be able to be transported to summer school. As reflected in the conciliation report, Mother's behaviors and her rationales are often eradic and inconsistent. She has exhibited a pattern evidencing that she is unable to work to co- parent with Father and simply proceeds to do as she pleases without regard to the impact on the children, Father or her compliance with the custody order. When the parties attempted to informally enlarge Mother's summer time with Cody, she proceeded to not follow the agreed upon plan and simply maintained custody of the child in violation of the agreement. The first occurrence of this was the week of June 12,2005. When this dispute was resolved with intervention of Father's counsel, Mother indicated that it was a misunderstanding. However, during Father's week (June 19,2005 to June 26,2005), she unilaterally took Cody into her custody. Without notice to Father and while Cody was at a local Carnival with his stepsister during Father's custodial time, Mother simply snatched Cody. The child was not returned until intervention was successful through counsel and then Mother did return the child at the correct time. 2 .W '., -..." "'~ -" '; -" < ~, ,,'. ____0._ '''.,'_--^-.' " _,~;, _ _ = ,- '. ~,". .~ ,-- ," ,. ,I' -.--' .. ,--, .- ~ ~~ Father told Mother of his intention to follow the Order of September 24, 2002 in light of her actions. As a result, Mother filed a petition to modify the custody on June 30, 2005 indicating that Father's schedule is not conducive to caring for the child and generally averring that Father has not been caring for Cody. Father believes that Mother has been inciting Cody to live with her. A Custody Conciliation was held on July 29,2005, with Conciliator Melissa P. Greevy, Esquire, on Mother's Petition for Modification. Following the Conciliation, a temporary Order was entered confmning primary custody of Cody and attempting to enlarge Mother's periods of temporary physical custody of Cody on a trial basis for future review at a conciliation in January. This temporary Order also reserved Father's right to file a Petition for Contempt as it relates to Mother's actions during the Summer of 2005. Since June, 2005, Mother proceeded to file repeated, baseless complaints with Children and Youth, file criminal charges against Father, taking Cody for medical evaluation for child abuse, and general causing difficulties at Cody's school. All charges, including the criminal charges for harassment, have been simply dismissed. On November 17, 2005, Father exercised this right and filed a Petition for Contempt based on Mother's failure to follow the custody Order from the Summer of 2005 and other recent episodes. The parties attended the reconvened Conciliation with Conciliator Greevy on December 16, 2006, and Mother's Petition for Modification and Father's Petition for Contempt were discussed. A temporary custody Order was entered following the reconvened Conciliation requiring the parties to contact Jill Boyd to arrange 3 !Ii,'~'\ ,-., '~_~L''T'P~?<''_ 0"_"" "' " _c ">." ,y~,~,;'"--",,,; - ";~ '" w ___~,,-__~,,_'''',_~' I~- -- --'--,~ an appointment to discuss the child's therapy, participate in therapeutic family counseling and attend a hearing on February 13, 2006. FATHER'S POSITION CONCERNING CUSTODY: Mother has acted in such a way as to attempt to alienate the child, Cody, from Father by her inciting him to live with her and willfully failing to return him to Father several days after her custodial periods ended on several occasions. Father feels Mother is further in contempt of the custody order by erratic actions. This is having a negative impact on Cody. Father has significant concerns as to what Cody is being exposed to in Mother's home and is also concerned about Mother's parenting skills. For instance, on September 23,2005, Mother allowed Cody to leave school early because he was "sick" and then allowed him to travel to New York and Delaware with a third party, Bill. This occurred even though Father had previously voiced his disapproval of the child being with Bill unsupervised and the matter was fully discussed and dealt with at the conciliation. Father knew nothing of this trip until the child returned home with lavish gifts given to him by Bill. Bill has given other extravagant gifts and money to Cody and previously wanted to take the child to Florida last summer. Bill is an adult who is not related to the parties and Father believes that it is not appropriate for him to have such a close relationship with Cody. Father has only briefly met Bill, but had agreed to meet him after the September 19, 2005 Conciliation. However, Mother later failed to arrange the meeting with Bill claiming that even if Father met Bill he would not let Cody accompany him on any trips. 4 i I I ~);, " . . . ,~~~-,~. ~""/~'" T-<.- '. .". . ,~-",,' "'~''''' ~." - .

As a result, Father had enrolled Cody in counseling with Ms. Jill Boyd of Family Life Services. Father participated in four (4) appointments with the child and Mother has failed to participate in the counseling despite court order. In regards to Mother's Petition to Modify the Custody Order, Father feels that the status quo under the September, 2002 Order should be reinstated. Extended contact with Mother is disruptive to the child. Father believes Mother should be held in contempt and sanctioned so as to allow her to understand the consequences of her destructive behavior. PROPOSED WITNESSES: 1. Mr. Michael W.

CROSS, Plaintiff : IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS : CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA v. : CIVIL ACTION - CUSTODY WENDY L. MARPOE, Defendant : DOCKET NO. 01-3449 PLAINTIFF'S MEMORANDUM STATEMENT OF mSTORY OF THE CASE: The parties are the natural parents of two (2) minor children, William C. Cross "Cody" (Born March 21, 1993) and Kimber L. Cross (Born June 6, 1994). The parties were married and divorced in 1994. Father and Mother have each since remarried. Prior to the present 2005 filings, the custody of the children had been controlled by the Custody Order of September 24, 2002. That Order confirmed the custodial arrangement existing almost from the date of the parties' separation. Father has had primary physical custody of the parties' son, Cody, and Mother had primary custody of the daughter, Kimber. The Order of September 24, 2002 confirmed Father's primary custody and provided Mother with custody of Cody one weekend per month and at other times as the parties could agree. Father was awarded partial custody of Kimber as the parties can agree. This Order was the result of litigation which had previously been initiated by Father to address Mother's failures to meet the educational and medical needs of the minor child, Kimber, a child who is profoundly disabled. Father has not had any '1"""'~~ ~'- """"', ,. ~", ",.." ..", . - ~"~~ substantive contact with Kimber and she is not the subject of any of the petitions currently pending before the court. In accordance with the 2002 order, Father had attempted to allow Mother additional time with Cody, especially since she relocated to Perry County nearer to Father's residence. Trouble commenced brewing when Father declined Mother's demand for the 2005 Memorial Day holiday due to existing plans. The parties discussed implementing a week on/week off schedule during the summer provided arrangements could be made to ensure that Cody would be able to be transported to summer school. As reflected in the conciliation report, Mother's behaviors and her rationales are often eradic - . and inconsistent. She has exhibited a pattern evidencing that she is unable to work to co- parent with Father and simply proceeds to do as she pleases without regard to the impact on the children, Father or her compliance with the custody order. When the parties attempted to informally enlarge Mother's summer time with Cody, she proceeded to not follow the agreed upon plan and simply maintained custody of the child in violation of the agreement. The first occurrence of this was the week of June 12, 2005. When this dispute was resolved with intervention of Father's counsel, Mother indicated that it was a misunderstanding. However, during Father's week (June 19,2005 to June 26, 2005), she unilaterally took Cody into her custody. Without notice to Father and while Cody was at a local Carnival with his stepsister during Father's custodial time, Mother simply snatched Cody. The child was not returned until intervention was successful through counsel and then Mother did return the child at the correct time. 2 ",01>1", _",_"-'. _". _ 0'.:_, __9, _'~__ _ _"" ,.._ ',-,-,-- "e"'" ~. Father told Mother ofhis intention to follow the Order of September 24, 2002 in light of her actions. As a result, Mother filed a petition to modify the custody on June 30, 2005 indicating that Father's schedule is not conducive to caring forthe child and generally averring that Father has not been caring for Cody. Father believes that Mother has been inciting Cody to live with her. A Custody Conciliation was held on July 29,2005, with Conciliator Melissa P. Greevy, Esquire, on Mother's Petition for Modification. Following the Conciliation, a temporary Order was entered confirming primary custody of Cody and attempting to enlarge Mother's periods of temporary physical custody of Cody on a trial basis for future review at a conciliation in January. This temporary Order also reserved Father's right to file a Petition for Contempt as it relates to Mother's actions during the Summer of 2005. ?HWi~ "':''"l", ',f_> ','~ "'1,"__,.' r-~~" an appointment to discuss the child's therapy, participate in therapeutic family counseling and attend a hearing on February 13, 2006. FATBER'SPOSITlON CONCERNING CUSTODY: Mother has acted in such a way as to attempt to alienate the child, Cody, from Father by her inciting him to live with her and willfully failing to return him to Father several days after her custodial periods ended on several occasions. Father feels Mother is further in contempt of the custody order by erratic actions. 1bis is having a negative impact on Cody. Father has significant concerns as to what Cody is being exposed to in Mother's home and is also concerned about Mother's parenting skills. For instance, on September 23, 2005, Mother allowed Cody to leave school early because he was "sick" and then allowed him to travel to New York and Delaware with a third party, Bill. This occurred even though Father had previously voiced his disapproval of the child being with Bill unsupervised and the matter was fully discussed and dealt with at the conciliation. Father knew nothing of this trip until the child returned home with lavish gifts given to him by Bill. Bill has given other extravagant gifts and money to Cody and previously wanted to take the child to Florida last summer. Bill is an adult who is not related to the parties and Father believes that it is not appropriate for him to have such a close relationship with Cody. Father has only briefly met Bill, but had agreed to meet him after the September 19,2005 Conciliation. However, Mother later failed to arrange the meeting with Bill claiming that even if Father met Bill he would not let Cody accompany him on any trips. 4 I'" _ ,": ':~" ,r, ' -'~ - ~ " I"; With regards to Cody, he recently has been having difficulties in school, both academically and socially, in which he has been disciplined for. As a result, Father had enrolled Cody in counseling with Ms. Jill Boyd of Family Life Services. Father participated in four (4) appointments with the child and Mother has failed to participate in the counseling despite court order. In regards to Mother's Petition to Modify the Custody Order, Father feels that the status quo under the September, 2002 Order should be reinstated. Extended contact with Mother is disruptive to the child. Father believes Mother should be held in contempt and .sanctioned so as to allow her to understand the consequences of her destructive behavior. PROPOSED WITNESSES: 1. Mr. Michael W.

CROSS, Plaintiff MAY 0 5 2006 : IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS : CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA v. : CIVIL ACTION - CUSTODY WENDY L. MARPOE, Defendant : DOCKET NO. 01-3449 PLAINTIFF'S MEMORANDUM STATEMENT OF mSTORY OF THE CASE: The parties are the natural parents of two (2) minor children, William C. Cross "Cody" (Born March 21, 1993) and Kimber L. Cross (Born June 6, 1994). The parties were married and divorced in 1994. Father and Mother have each since remarried. Prior to the recent filings, the custody of the children had been controlled by the Custody Order of September 24,2002. That Order confirmed the custodial arrangement existing almost from the date of the parties' separation. Father has had primary physical custody of the parties' son, Cody, and Mother had primary custody of the daughter, Kimber. The Order of September 24,2002 confIrmed Father's primary custody and provided Mother with custody of Cody one weekend per month and at other times as the parties could agree. Father was awarded partial custody of Kimber as the parties can agree. This Order was the result of litigation which had previously been initiated by Father to address Mother's failures to meet the educational and medical needs ofthe --1i!~."~" -..,,- ,~ . minor child, Kimber, a child who is profoundly disabled. Father has not had any substantive contact with Kimber and she is not the subject of any of the petitions currently pending before the court. Mother simply refuses to follow any agreements or even any court orders. Her complete disregard of planning or attempts to coordinate between the households has resulted in significant stress and deterioration of Cody. Mother has placed Cody in the center of her power struggle. While Father attempted to address the issues both through seeking a therapist for Cody and instituting co-parenting counseling with Mother, she has refused to attend. She has exhibited a pattern evidencing that she is unable to work to co- parent with Father and simply proceeds to do as she pleases without regard to the impact on the children, Father, or her compliance with the custody Order. Mother acts irrational and erratic in her dealings with Cody, Father and Father's household which causes excessive stress. Father also has continued concerns about the stability of Mother's household, the household composition, and its impact on Cody. Father has always attempted to work with Mother, even after circumstances last summer when Mother simply "kept" Cody and took him from a community carnival. At a Custody Conciliation held on July 29, 2005, with Conciliator Melissa P. Greevy, Esquire Father had attempted to work a detailed order confirming primary custody of Cody with him and attempting to enlarge Mother's periods of temporary physical custody of Cody 2 i-"~~""'~"I ~r . - ~ , ':"= ~,t -'~" ,- " on a trial basis for future review at a conciliation in January. It was hoped having everything spelled out would avoid problems. This temporary Order also reserved Father's right to file a Petition for Contempt as it relates to Mother's actions during the Summer of2005 regarding her simply maintaining the child. Father's plan to avoid further litigation was unsuccessful. Since June, 2005, Mother proceeded to file repeated, baseless complaints with Children and Youth, filed criminal charges against Father, taking Cody for a medical evaluation for child abuse, and general causing difficulties at Cody's school. All charges, including the criminal charges for harassment, have been simply dismissed. Mother continued to be erratic in compliance with the schedule. On November 17, 2005, Father exercised his right and filed a Petition for Contempt based on Mother's failure to follow the custody Order from the Summer of 2005 and other recent episodes. He also expected the custody matter to be reviewed by the court since the enlargement of time in the Interim Order was causing further havoc with Cody. When Defendant's latest attorney then withdrew on the day of hearing, the court chose not to address the custody issue. However, a hearing on the contempt petitions was held on February 13,2006 and Mother was found to be in contempt. The Court allowed Mother to purge the contempt by completing four conditions: a) Strictly complying with the existing custody Orders; 3 ,';i~~ii'! ,."~,,, _'~ ~ ~ , b) Within seven (7) days providing Father with a written statement of her hours of work so that he may arrange for therapeutic family counseling when she is not working; c) Attending three (3) therapeutic family counseling sessions with the Father which he shall schedule with a provider of his choice, notifY her of the place, date and time; and d) Within forty-five (45) days pay Michael W. Cross $250.00 toward his counsel fees. The Court's effort to avoid future litigation also was unsuccessful solely because Mother disobeyed even this direct Order. While Mother has not strayed significant from the custody Order February, she has refused to meet the other directives of this court. Mother has also been evicted from her address in Ickesburg and relocated to 54 North 2nd Street, Newport, PA 17074. She never notified Father of her new residence or the new location for the child during her periods of partial custody. FATHER'S POSITION CONCERNING CUSTODY: Mother's periods of custody must be restricted to those granted under the Order of 2002 - e.g., or one weekend per month and such other times as the parties agree. Father has exhibited his willingness to work in good faith with Mother despite her attempts to 4 !';;"f~i~&o;._~ ,"",. - ", - . . alienate the child, Cody, from Father. Any additional time with Mother should be in Father's specific control as he is monitoring Cody and Mother's living circumstances. Father's effort to expand time by agreeing to the Interim Order of August 9,2005 (specifically the midweek visitations) have caused more disruption for Cody and these must be removed. With regards to Cody, he continues having difficulties in school, both academically and socially. Cody is smoking and undertaking behaviors not allowed by Father. PROPOSED WITNESSES: 1.

MICHAEL W. CROSS, v. WENDY L. MARPOE, IN CUSTODY Defendant CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report: 1. The pertinent information concerning the, child who is the subject of this litigation is as follows: NAME DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN THE CUSTODY OF William C. "Cody" Cross March 21, 1993 Father 2. The parties returned for a Custody Conciliation Conference on December 16, 2005 as a result of Father's Petition for Contempt filed November 17, 2005. Attending the conference were: the Father, Michael W. Cross, and his counsel, Barbara Sumple-Sullivan, Esquire; the Mother, Wendy L. Marpoe, and her new attorney, John J. Mangan, Esquire. The parties have been seen by this Custody Conciliator on at least four (4) prior occasions since August of 2002. 3. Father's position on custody is as follows: Father brought another contempt action against Mother complaining that Mother had taken the child to the doctor for "child abuse review", that Mother allowed the child to leave school early on September 23, 2005, allegedly being sick and then allowed the child to travel with "Bill" to New York and Delaware without Father's permission. Father further reiterates his concern that the party with whom the child was traveling is an adult non-related male who has been lavishing expensive gifts on the child and has on occasion sought to take the child on trips such as last summer when he wanted to take the child on a trip to Florida. Father questions the appropriateness of this person's interest in the parties' child. At the Conciliation Conference held on September 19, 2005, the parties agreed that Father could meet this gentleman. However, he reports Mother later rescinded her agreement to this claiming that she did not believe that Father'Would consent to the trip no matter how the meeting between Father and this gentleman would go. Father also expressed concern that Mother has cut off all contact ~i );zy , -- ":"-~;'-~"-'''V,,~ ~ --,-. ," '-2 '_n.'" '~_" J.--r' ~".~..? NO. 01-3449 CIVIL TERM between the paternal grandparents and the parties' other child, Kimber. His understanding of the reason for her discontinuing the contact was that she claimed that they would abuse Kimber. Kimber has Pervasive Developmental Disorder. Father has discontinued contact with Kimber as he fears that Mother will claim that he has abused Kimber and Kimber's verbal abilities are extremely limited. Father reports that Cody is having problems in school academically and socially, resulting in disciplinary action. Father initiated outpatient mental health care for the child and has participated in two (2) appointments with the counseling. Father reports that the therapist has told him that Mother has not participated and has not returned telephone calls. Additionally, Father reports that Mother has taken the child at times that were designated to him under the present Custody Order. He also reports that on a day when he allowed Cody to go the Perry County Fair that Mother picked up the child from the Fair and refused to return him to Father at the appropriate time. Accordingly, Father reports that he has spent a great deal of money in attorney's fees trying to obtain Mother's cooperation and compliance. Father seeks a finding of contempt, fines or otherwise incarcerate the respondent for contempt. Father further seeks make-up days and a judgment for counsel fees. 4. Mother's position on custody is as follows: tIIIother agrees that the child is having difficulty at school. Addi,tionally, she is concerned that the child is smoking. She questions the level of supervision that Father provides and wants to have more custodial time with Cody. It is noted that Mother has made no filing and has only raised this issue in the context of the pending contempt matter.' Mother acknowledges that she has not participated in Cody's therapy. She claims to have been offered an appointment that was inconvenient to her, and reports that for a two week period she was completely unavailable because her younger child was hospitalized at the Hershey Medical Center. Motherreports that the reason that she took Cody from the Fair was because she believed that he was too young to be allowed to attend the Fair without adult supervision present. She further reports that she took Cody to the doctor for a "child abuse review" because of bruises on his arms which she believed were inflicted by Cody's stepsister. Some of Mother's explanations were difficult to follow in that she provided inconsistent information to the Conciliator. This has been her pattern in the past. 5. After conference with counsel and the parties it was determined that a hearing be scheduled for April on Father's Petition for Contempt. In the meantime, the Conciliator strongly recommends that the parties participate in co-parent counseling and in the child's counseling that is presently be provided by psychologist, Jill Boyd. The child's academic and behavioral performance are clearly indicative of the need for intervention in which the parent's role will be critical. However, the level of conflict that exists between them at this time makes them unable to work cooperatively for Cody's interest. !1f;~.I_, '.Co,_, ,-_,.___.y. -,-'-"'.y--;^-... ,. ,,' J." ~ ,.~ NO. 01-3449 CIVIL TERM ''1;r11ri Date ,~~ Melissa Peel Greevy, Esquire ~ ) Custody Conciliator j: , l , , ~ , I; ff ~', ~~ '/ ~ ~, 6.
