Hart, ID 11 34331 McGraw, Hart & Dertchnnan 4 Liberty Avenue Carlisle„ PA 17013 (717) 249.4ta) 2492411 (ia7) IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA SUE A. ANTHONY, Civil Action-Law Plaintiff Vs. No. 9 9. 39&V etu4 T...' NATIONWIDE MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY, Defendant COMPLAINT 1. Plaintiff, Sue A. Anthony, is an adult individual who currently resides at R.R.1, Box 107•D•2, Loysville, Perry County, Pennsylvania. At the time of the events out of which this action arises, Plaintiff resided in Newville, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. 2. Defendant, Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company, is a corporation doing business in Cumberland County. Defendant maintains a place of business at 1000 N w ation ide Drive, Harrisburg, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. 3. Defendant is licensed by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to issue motor vehicle insurance policies, in accordance with the Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law (MVFRL). 4. On a date prior to 3/29/96, Defendant issued to Plaintiff an auto insurance polic y bearing policy number 58 37 B 864325. The insurance policy obligated Defendant to pay for reasonable and necessary medical treatment for injuries arising out of the maintenance or use of a motor vehicle. Plaintiff does not currently have a copy of the insurance policy, but she believes that Defendant does have a copy of the policy. 5. i Insurance policy number 58 37 B 864325 was in full force and effect on 3/29/96. 6. On or about 3/29/96, Plaintiff was involved in a motor vehicle accident in which she suffered injuries, including severe recurrent headaches, and injuries to her neck, back, and right forearm. 7. As a result of the injuries she suffered in the 3/29/96 motor vehicle accident, Plaintiff sought treatment and care from Thomas Boch, D.C., of Chirotech, Inc., 323 York Road, Carlisle, PA. 8. Dr. Boch treated Plaintiff for her injuries from 4/3/96 to 11/20/96. 9. Defendant has declined to pay for treatment rendered by Dr. Boch after 6/5/96, alleging that further care was not reasonable or necessary. 10. Defendant's failure to pay for reasonable and necessary treatment of the injuries she suffered in the 3/29/96 motor vehicle accident is a breach of the insurance policy, and a violation of section 1716 of the MVFRL. 11. The treatment that Dr. Boch rendered to Plaintiff from 6/6/96 to 11/20/96 was in fact reasonable and necessary, because Plaintiff had neither recovered from her injuries nor had she reached maximum improvement by 6/5/96. Further treatment was necessary in order to restore Plaintiff to full health. 12.The cost of the reasonable and necessary treatment that Defendant refused to pay for was $2,610.00. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands judgment against Defendant for damages in the amount of $2,610.00, interest at the statutory rate of 1250, per annum pursuant to sections 1716 and 1797 of the MVFRL, attorney fees pursuant to sections 1716 and 1797 of the MVFRL, costs of suit, and such additional relief as the Court deems appropriate.
