Spoke to Attorney Hughes on 1/28/03 to let her know that I received her
appointment for Master dated 1/24/03; told her that we were already appointed
back in August of 2002 by Jason Kutulakis. Certifications were sent out and I
received Jerry Weigle's back indicating that discovery was not complete. Left her
know what information he needed and told her to respond accordingly and then let
us know when they were ready to go ahead. I also asked her to do the praecipes

CERTIFICATION
I certify that discovery is complete as to the claims
for which the Master has been appointed.
OR IF DISCOVERY IS NOT COMPLETE:
(a) Outline what information is required that is not
complete in order to prepare the case for trial
and indicate whether there are any outstanding
interrogatories or discovery motions.
1. Appraisal values on the following: the marital residence (land improved with
mobile home, deck, three-car garage, and detached shed); house and garage contents;
two vehicles; and three lawn tractors.
2. Verification of all bank and retirement account balances as of the date of
separation.
3. Verification of cash surrender value of Defendant's life insurance policy.

'* Mrs. Cornman is without funds to secure the requisite appraisal information (see
APL Order dated 8/6/02 and my correspondence dated 8/13/02 enclosed).
** The marital home and its contents are in the sole control and possession of the
Plaintiff who has monthly income almost twice that of the Defendant.
*** No present action has been initiated by the Defendant to secure the necessary
appraisal information due to lack of funds and lack of control over most items
to be appraised. The Motion for Appointment of the Cumberland County Divorce
Master was just filed on 8/15/02. Both parties should IDIltually agree upon the
appraiser(s) to be used.

Re: Cornman v. Cornman
Docket #01-7233 Civil
PACSESCase #333104468
Dear Ricki:
You will recall that ~ou held an APL conference in the above-captioned matter
last Tuesday, August 6'. Pursuant to the Order of Court entered, please be advised that
Mrs. Cornman has, in fact, received a cash payment from Mr. Cornman in the amount of
Two Hundred Dollars ($200.00). In revieWing your calculations, however, it appears that
you based Mrs. Cornman's earnings on a 40 hour work week. In reality, she has only
averaged 32 hours per week. Based upon her Pennsylvania earnings to date for calendar
year 2002, it looks to me like her net monthly income is $721.21 per month rather than
$901.51 as per your report. Enclosed .are her Pennsylvania Burger King bi-weekly
statements which you used to make your calculation a week ago.
I would appreciate a call when you have time.
Very truly yours,
IATES, P.C.

12. The Plaintiff went to the residence of Clarence Myers to stay.
13. Mr. Myers is an elderly gentleman for whom the Plaintiff had
performed nurse's aide services earlier in the year.
14. The Plaintiff stayed with Mr. Myers in his home from November 15,
2000, until December 26, 2000, when Mr. Myers left for Florida.
15. The Plaintiff relocated to the home of a girlfriend on December 26,
2000.
16. In early January, 2001, Mr. Myers contacted the Plaintiff and
suggested that she come to Florida to stay with him in his motor home.
17. The Plaintiff went to Florida, stayed with Mr. Myers, and returned to
Pennsylvania with him in late February, 2001.
18. Upon returning to Pennsylvania the Plaintiff stayed at Mr. Myers' home
for approximately ten days before moving to an apartment.
19. In January, 2002, the Plaintiff accompanied Mr. Myers to Florida where
they resided together in his motor home until March, 2002.
20. The Plaintiff began a sexual relationship with Mr. Myers in late 2000 or

24. The Plaintiff filed a complaint for spousal support on October 17, 2001.
DISCUSSION
The facts of this case raise two legal issues. First, did the Plaintiff have
adequate legal cause for leaving the marital residence such that she is entitled to
receive spousal support? Second, has the Plaintiff, through her post-separation
I The Plaintiff initially testified on direct examination that she never had been sexually involved with Mr.
Myers but subsequently changed her testimony. She admitted that she and Mr. Myers engaged in sexual
relations from late 2000 or early 200 I on average two times per month.

conduct, given the Defendant grounds for a fault divorce thereby forfeiting her
entitlement to support?
A wife who seeks spousal support following a voluntary, nonconsensual
departure from the marital home has the burden of proving that her husband's
conduct gave her adequate legal cause to leave the marital home. McKolanis v.
McKolanis, 644 A.2d. 1256 (Pa. Super. 1994). Although the phrase "adequate
legal cause" is not subject to an exact definition, the conduct need not rise to
such a level as to constitute grounds for a divorce. Rock v. Rock, 560 A.2d. 199
(Pa. Super. 1989). The conduct must be more than a mere allegation that the
husband has made marital life unbearable without providing supporting facts.
Martin v. Martin, 423 A.2d. 6 (Pa. Super. 1980).
In this case the Plaintiff gave uncontradicted testimony that the Defendant
slapped her on one occasion in August, 2000, three months before her
departure, that the couple had been arguing in November prior to her departure,
and that the Defendant had said he was considering "ending everything." This
testimony, without more, is insufficient to establish adequate legal cause for
leaving. However, immediately following the Plaintiff's initial departure from the
home, the Defendant packed up her clothing and personal belongings (the
Plaintiff had taken only three days change of clothing with her when she left the
home) and put them on the porch of the residence. Assuming arguendo that this
action on the part of the Defendant gave the Plaintiff adequate legal cause to
remain out of the home, we must next determine whether the Plaintiff forfeited
her entitlement to support by her own conduct.
A dependent spouse is entitled to support until it is proven that conduct on
the part of the dependent spouse constitutes grounds for a fault divorce.
Crawford v. Crawford, 633 A.2d. 155 (Pa. Super. 1993). Adultery is a ground for
a fault divorce. 23 Pa. C.S. Section 3301 (a)(2). Although proof of adultery must
be by clear and convincing evidence, Levitz v. Levitz, 185 A.2d. 620 (Pa. Super.
1962), here the Plaintiff admitted to having had a sexual relationship with another
man beginning shortly after the separation and continuing to the present. This
conduct, even if the Plaintiff had adequate legal cause to leave the marital
residence, defeats her entitlement to an award of spousal support.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plaintiff's claim for spousal support is denied and her complaint is
dismissed.

A wife who seeks spousal support following a voluntary, nonconsensual
departure from the marital home has the burden of proving that her husband's
conduct gave her adequate legal cause to leave the marital home. McKolanis v.
McKolanis, 644 A.2d.1256 (Pa. Super. 1994). Although the phrase "adequate

such a level as to constitute grounds for a divorce. Rock v. Rock, 560 A.2d. 199

home, the Defendant packed up her clothing and personal belongings (the
Plaintiff had taken only three days change of clothing with her when she left the
home) and put them on the porch of the residence. Assuming arcuendo that this
action on the part of the Defendant gave the Plaintiff adequate legal cause to
remain out of the home, we must next determine whether the Plaintiff forfeited
her entitlement to support by her own conduct.
A dependent spouse is entitled to support until it is proven that conduct on
the part of the dependent spouse constitutes grounds for a fault divorce.
Crawford v. Crawford, 633 A.2d. 155 (Pa. Super. 1993). Adultery is a ground for
a fault divorce. 23 Pa. C.S. Section 3301 (a)(2). Although proof of adultery must
beby clear and convincing evidence, Levitz v. Levitz, 185 A.2d. 620 (Pa. Super.
1962), here the Plaintiff admitted to having had a sexual relationship with another
man beginning shortly after the separation and continuing to the present. This
conduct, even if the Plaintiff had adequate legal cause to leave the marital
residence, defeats her entitlement to an award of spousal support.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plaintiff's claim for spousal support is denied and her complaint is
dismissed.

12. The Plaintiff went to the residence of Clarence Myers to stay.
13. Mr. Myers is an elderly gentleman for whom the Plaintiff had
performed nurse's aide services earlier in the year.
14. The Plaintiff stayed with Mr. Myers in his home from November 15,
2000, until December 26, 2000, when Mr. Myers left for Florida.
15. The Plaintiff relocated to the home of a girlfriend on December 26,
2000.
16. In early January, 2001, Mr. Myers contacted the Plaintiff and
suggested that she come to Florida to stay with him in his motor home.
17. The Plaintiff went to Florida, stayed with Mr. Myers, and returned to
Pennsylvania with him in late February, 2001.
18. Upon returning to Pennsylvania the Plaintiff stayed at Mr. Myers' home
for approximately ten days before moving to an apartment.
19. In January, 2002, the Plaintiff accompanied Mr. Myers to Florida where
they resided together in his motor home until March, 2002.
20. The Plaintiff began a sexual relationship with Mr. Myers in late 2000 or

24. The Plaintiff filed a complaint for spousal support on October 17, 2001.
DISCUSSION
The facts of this case raise two legal issues. First, did the Plaintiff have
adequate legal cause for leaving the marital residence such that she is entitled to
receive spousal support? Second, has the Plaintiff, through her post-separation
1 The Plaintiff initially testified on direct examination that she never had been sexually involved with Mr.
Myers but subsequently changed her testimony. She admitted that she and Mr. Myers engaged in sexual
relations from late 2000 or early 2001 on average two times per month.
':I:
I-~..'-',,~<.~ ~ ~ .
b..::G.7'1l''''' -:,--"..~[,
conduct, given the Defendant grounds for a fault divorce thereby forfeiting her
entitlement to support?
A wife who seeks spousal support following a voluntary, nonconsensual
departure from the marital home has the burden of proving that her husband's
conduct gave her adequate legal cause to leave the marital home. McKolanis v.
McKolanis, 644 A.2d. 1256 (Pa. Super. 1994). Although the phrase "adequate
legal cause" is not subject to an exact definition, the conduct need not rise to
such a level as to constitute grounds for a divorce_ Rock v. Rock, 560 A.2d. 199
(Pa. Super. 1989). The conduct must be more than a mere allegation that the
husband has made marital life unbearable without providing supporting facts.
Martin v. Martin, 423 A.2d. 6 (Pa. Super. 1980).
In this case the Plaintiff gave uncontradicted testimony that the Defendant
slapped her on one occasion in August, 2000, three months before her
departure, that the couple had been arguing in November prior to her departure,
and that the Defendant had said he was considering "ending everything." This
testimony, without more, is insufficient to establish adequate legal cause for
leaving. However, immediately following the Plaintiff's initial departure from the
home, the Defendant packed up her clothing and personal belongings (the
Plaintiff had taken only three days change of clothing with her when she left the
home) and put them on the porch of the residence. Assuming arQuendo that this
action on the part of the Defendant gave the Plaintiff adequate legal cause to
remain out of the home, we must next determine whether the Plaintiff forfeited
her entitlement to support by her own conduct.
A dependent spouse is entitled to support until it is proven that conduct on
the part of the dependent spouse constitutes grounds for a fault divorce.
Crawford v. Crawford, 633 A.2d. 155 (Pa. Super. 1993), Adultery is a ground for
a fault divorce. 23 Pa. C.S. Section 3301 (a)(2). Although proofofadultery must
be by clear and convincing evidence, Levitz v. Levitz, 185 A.2d. 620 (Pa. Super.
1962), here the Plaintiff admitted to having had a sexual relationship with another
man beginning shortly after the separation and continuing to the present. This
conduct, even if the Plaintiff had adequate legal cause to leave the marital
residence, defeats her entitlement to an award of spousal support.
RECOMMENDATION
The Plaintiff's claim for spousal support is denied and her complaint is
dismissed.
