In the same Order you directed that discovery be completed in preparation for the hearing by September 22, 2000. I write to advise you that the parties appear to be making meaningful progress in settling all issues between them. Accordingly, Attorney Weintraub and 1 are requcsting that the discovery deadline and hearing datc scheduled in your Order of July 12, 2000 bc continued generally and in the evcnt this case is not resolved as anticipated, that a hearing date and discovery deadline be established at a later date by the Court at the rcquest of either party.

IN DIVORCE PETITION FOR SEPARATE LISTING AND HEARING OF COMPLEX SUPPORT (APL) MATTER AND FOR LEAVE TO TAKE PRIOR DISCOVERY AND NOW comes Plaintiff/Petitioner, Louise Knight, Esquire, by and through her attorney, Edward J. Weintraub, Esquire. and respectfully represents as follows: 1 . The Petitioner is Louise Knight, Esquire. the Plaintiff in the above- captioned Divorce action and hereinafter referred to as Wife. 2. The Respondent is Gregory H. Knight, Esquire, the Defendant in the above-captioned Divorce action and hereinafter referred to as Husband. 3. The parties were married on May 19, 1979, and separated on May 5. 1999. 4. Wife filed the within action for Divorce on April 28, 1999. 5. On February 15. 2000, Husband filed a Request for Alimony Pendente Lite, counsel fees. costs and expenses, but requested no hearing, as settlement discussions were being pursued by the parties. 6. In the Divorce action, Husband sought discovery from Wife to which she responded on May 23, 2000, providing Answers to Interrogatories and documents requested by Husband, including all data relevant to her income. 7. On June 7, 2000, Wife's counsel received notice that Husband's , .' .. . . ,'. .' I" .' '. '" ........... counsel had sought to schedule a conference at Domestic Relations on Husband's claim for Alimony Pendente Lite and the Conference was scheduled for July 5, 2000. 8. 8ecause Plaintiff and Plaintiff's counsel will be traveling out-of-state on a church work camp and preplanned vacation respectively the week of July 3. 2000, a request has been made to reschedule the Alimony Pendente Lite conference until August or September, 2000. 9. Husband's counsel consented to the delay but opposed waiting until August or September disputing Wife's need and right to seek discovery. 10. Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1910.11 (j)( 1) provides" Promptly after receipt of the notice of the scheduled hearing, a party may move the court for a separate listing..... 11 . The parties had agreed to file a joint tax return for 1 999 (which has generally been coordinated by Wife) and Husband gave her the reasonable expectation that on or before April 15, 2000, she would receive from Husband all relative data regarding his 1999 and current income. She received some information regarding his 1999 income but none regarding his income for the first quarter of 2000. 12. Likewise, Wife has received no information regarding Husband's current income or earning capacity. 13. Husband changed his professional association in October of 1999, - ....... , ,," , '.. :,:,., ." J ,. !, ..... '. '. "". "... ',.', '}< . ,...,: ~., , .' ' . ..' .: J ' moving the practice from Harrisburg to Carlisle. 14. Wife hils requested voluntary production of Husband's income, but these requests have not been honored by Husband. 15. By the within Petition, Wife moves the Honorable Court for a separate listing and hearing of this matter because: a. Plaintiff has no evidence of Defendant's current earnings or earning capacity and needs reasonable discovery to obtain both prior an Alimony Pendente Lite conference or hearing in this matter. b. There are complicated issues of law and fact including the extent to which Defendant Husband has voluntarily reduced and impaired his own earnings and earning capacity, particularly due to his chronic drinking problem and unwillingness to seek professional help for it. c. The hearing in this matter could be protracted. 16. Only by granting a separate listing can the Court provide Wife with discovery pursuant to Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 4001, et seq. 17. Plaintiff believes and therefore avers that Defendant Husband has sufficient funds to meet his reasonable needs until discovery and a hearing can be completed and, in the alternative. Plaintiff renews her September 22, 1999, written offer to provide Husband immediately with interim equitable distribution of $100,000. 1 B.
