CIVIL ACTION - LAW
IN CUSTODY
PETITION TO MODIFY CUSTODY ORDER
AND NOW comes the above-named Defendant, JAMES C. RHOADS, by and
through his attorney, LESLEY J. BEAM, ESQ., and makes the following Petition to
Modify the Custody Order:
1. The Petitioner is James C. Rhoads, residing at 1812 Carlisle Road, Camp Hill,
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17011 (hereinafter "Petitioner" or "Father").
2. The Respondent is Erin L. Shistle, nee Klein, believed to be residing at 50K
Stony Lane, Dover, York County, Pennsylvania 17315 (hereinafter "Respondent"
or "Mother").
3. A current custody order is in effect regarding the custody of the following child:
Bryant J. Rhoads, born July 22, 1998 (currently 9 years old) (hereinafter the
"child"). This order was dated May 6, 1999, and provided that Mother had
primary physical and legal custody of the child. This order did result from a
conciliation in which Father was not in attendance. A copy of this Order is
attached as Exhibit "A".
4. For the last two years, until approximately two weeks prior to the filing of this
Petition, however, the child had been in Father's de facto physical custody.
Mother voluntarily placed the child with Father, and for the first four months after
said placement, Mother had no contact with the child while in Father's custody.
5. Prior to that time, the child was in Father's custody three to four days per week.
6. Approximately two weeks ago, Mother picked up the child from school, and has
not permitted the Father to have custodial time with the child since that point.
7. Mother has been an unstable parent, consistently relocating with the child, and
changing the child's school and home environment at a whim. It is believed that
this relocation affected the child both emotionally and mentally.
8. While in Father's consistent care for two years, the child flourished. Father has
been a consistent parent, and the child benefited from such consistency.
9. Father is respectfully requesting that this Honorable Court issue an Order
granting Father primary physical and primary legal custody of the child.
10. Father is also requesting that a conciliation be scheduled as soon as possible,
and that a hearing be set in an expedited manner, in order to return the child as
quickly as possible to the home in which the child was flourishing.
11. The best interest and permanent welfare of the child will be served by granting
the relief requested because:
(a) Mother has demonstrated that she is not a consistent or stable
parent, in her constant relocation;
(b) Mother's current actions, in abruptly removing the child from his
Father's care after two constant years in his custody, demonstrate
a disregard for the best interest of the child, and the of the
relationship between Father and child;
(c) Father is more than able to provide a stable home and stable
emotional environment for the child; and
(d) Father has the facilities to provide for the care, comfort and control
of the child, as well as the intention and desire to do so.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests that this Honorable Court grant Father
primary physical and legal custody of the child.
