AMENDMENT TO PETITION FOR CHANGE OF VENUE
Petitioner, Diana L. Maiman, by and through her attorneys, MidPenn Legal
Services, respectfully requests that Court consider the additional information provided
below in conjunction with the original Petition for Change of Venue.
1. On or about February 28, 2001, The Honorable Judge Edward Guido,
upon consideration of a Stipulated Agreement presented by the parties involved, ordered
and directed that paternal grandmother Connie Bingman be vested with primary physical
and legal custody of the party's minor child, Anthoni R. Gift, born October 10, 1995.
Petitioner and Respondent agreed to have partial custody of child at times mutually
agreed upon by the parties.
2. On or about March 22, 2007, counsel attempted to contact Austin F.
Grogan, Attorney of Record for Defendant/Respondent in order to obtain his concurrence
in this matter: The phone number listed online for Mr. Grogan has now been assigned to
a residence. After gaining Mr. Grogan's contact information from the Dauphin County
Bar Association, counsel contacted the Law Offices of Coyne & Coyne, P.C. in order to
obtain the concurrence of Mr. Grogan. Counsel was advised that Mr. Grogan was
deployed to Iraq in September 2006 and has since returned to the United States, however,
he is no longer employed with that office.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests that the Court issue a Rule upon Respondent
to show cause, if any he has, as to why this matter should not be transferred to Dauphin
County Court of Common Pleas.

ANSWER IN OPPOSITION TO PETITION and AMENDED PETITION
FOR CHANGE OF VENUE
AND NOW COMES, the Respondent, JASON C. GIFT and CONNIE GIFT, the
Paternal Grandmother, and files the within Answer in Opposition to Petition for Change
of Venue:
1. Admitted.
2. Denied, in part and Admitted, in part. It is denied that Petitioner exercised
any regular periods of custody after the conciliation or for the months preceding the
Stipulation. It is admitted, however, that the parties entered into a Stipulation whereby
Connie Bingman, now Connie Gift, was given primary physical and legal custody of the
minor child.
3. Denied as stated. The Stipulation speaks for itself.
4. Admitted.
5. Denied. Petitioner resides with at Lowther Street, Lemoyne, Cumberland
County, Pennsylvania.
1
6. Denied. Respondent is without any information or belief concerning what
Petitioner's "intent" is concerning her residency and same is denied with strict proof of
same demanded.
7. Admitted.
8. Denied. Respondent is without any information or belief concerning what
Petitioner's "intent" is concerning her supposed change in residency and same is denied
with strict proof of same demanded. Furthermore, without any petition for modification
pending, Petitioner has no legal standing for the relief requested. This appears, therefore,
to be merely an exercise in "hypothetical" litigation on the behalf of Petitioner as there is
no litigation pending at this time and the fact remains that Petitioner currently resides in
Lemoyne, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
9. Denied. It is denied that Cumberland County is not a convenient forum
for this custody litigation. Should there be litigation concerning the custody of the minor
child, the Petitioner, herself, currently resides in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania and
therefore, there is no inconvenience for Petitioner. Additionally, neither Respondent, nor
Connie Gift, the paternal grandmother object to Cumberland County remaining the forum
for litigation concerning custody of the minor child and witnesses for the Respondent
who have knowledge and information concerning the minor child are located in
2
Cumberland County. Furthermore, retaining Cumberland County as the forum for
litigation would result in maintaining continuity through any litigation which the
Petitioner may file. The continuity would remain through the conciliation process,
conciliator, and Judge all of which have become knowledgeable of the minor child and
his best interests.
10. Admitted, in part and Denied, in part. It is admitted that minor child's
pediatrician is located in Dauphin County and that minor child attends school in Dauphin
County; however, it is denied that the child's extended family resides in Dauphin County
or that it is even relevant that they do as there is no indication that any member of the
child's "extended family" are witnesses in any "hypothetical" litigation or that they
would provide relevant or necessary evidence to any custody proceeding. It is further
denied that the minor child's pediatrician would be called as a witness in any future
custody litigation and if called, there is no indication that there is any adverse impact or
unavailability of such a witness for testimony in Cumberland County proceedings.
Furthermore, the minor child's counselor is located in Cumberland County.
WHEREFORE, the Respondent as well as Connie Gift, the custodial paternal
grandmother, respectfully requests that the Petition for Change of Venue be denied.
3
ANSWER IN OPPOSITION TO AMENDMENT TO PETITION.
10. Paragraphs 1 through 10 above are incorporated herein by reference.
11. Paragraph 1: Admitted.
12. Paragraph 2: Denied as stated. The undersigned is without information
and belief concerning actions supposedly undertaken by opposing counsel and same is
therefore denied. Furthermore, it is denied that any contact made to the Law Offices of
Coyne & Coyne, P.C. by opposing counsel resulted in opposing counsel being advised
that Attorney Grogan is, "no longer employed by Coyne & Coyne, P.C." Attorney
Grogan was mobilized to active military duty; however, Attorney Grogan has not been
released from active military duty and as such, the Law Offices of Coyne & Coyne, P.C.
is in full compliance with the Soldier's and Sailor's Civil Relief Act and Attorney
Grogan, when released from active military duty, will return to full-time employment
with the Law Offices of Coyne & Coyne, P.C. Furthermore, opposing counsel never
provided service of the original petition upon Attorney Grogan at his law office or to the
law offices of Coyne & Coyne, P.C. despite knowing that Attorney Grogan's law office
was located in Cumberland County and it appears that opposing counsel did not contact
the Cumberland County Bar Association, but for some reason contacted only the Dauphin
County Bar Association for information concerning Attorney Grogan.
4
WHEREFORE, the Respondent and Connie Gift, the custodial paternal
grandmother, respectfully requests that the Petition for Change of Venue be denied.

and respectfully requests the court to modify the current custody order for the following reasons:
1. Petitioner, Diana L. Maiman, is an adult individual who resides at 7 Brandenburg
Building, Hershey, PA 17033.
2. Defendant, Jason C. Gift, is an adult individual who resides at 2227 Jo Ann Avenue,
Hummelstown, Pennsylvania.
3. On or about December 27, 1999 an Order signed by the Honorable Judge Guido gave
Defendant primary physical custody of minor child, Anthoni R. Gift, with Petitioner
having partial physical custody of minor child.
4. Then on or about February 28, 2001, an Order signed by the Honorable Judge Guido
as a result of a stipulation which was signed by both parties, gave paternal
grandmother, Connie Bingman, now Connie Gift, primary physical custody and legal
custody of minor child, Anthoni R. Gift.
5. Petitioner respectfully requests this court to modify the February 28, 2001 Order for
the following reasons:
a. Petitioner has not been allowed to speak with her minor child in two weeks
and has not been able to visit with her child in over month.
b. The February 28, 2001 order states "the plaintiff Diana L. Maiman, and the
defendant, Jason C. Gift, shall have partial custody of the child at times
mutually agreed upon by the parties."
c. The said order needs to be modified to address time periods when Petitioner
may have her partial custody of the child, as the current order is to vague and
is not allowing Petitioner adequate time with her child.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays this court modify the Order of February 21, 2001 to
designate when Petitioner may have partial custody of her minor child.
Respectfully Submitted,
