Plaintiff CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA
VS. CIVIL ACTION - CUSTODY
TIMOTHY J. MILLER, SR. 99
Defendant
COMPLAINT/PETITION FOR CUSTODY ORDER
TO THE HONORABLE, THE JUDGES OF THE SAID COURT:
1. Plaintiff is Jennifer L. Miller, an adult individual who
currently resides at 4184 Cove Court, Apartment 103,
Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, 17055.
2. Defendant is Timothy J. Miller, Sr., an adult individual
with a last known address of RD #1, Lot 74 Paradise Park, New
Bloomfield, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17068.
3. Plaintiff seeks the entry of a custody order involving
the minor children, Kaylena M. Miller, D.O.B. January 23, 1993;
and Timothy J. Miller Jr., D.O.B. June 29, 1996; and Jordyn M.
Miller, D.O.B. September 16, 1997.
4. The parties are married, but separated with different
residences.
5. During the past four (4) months, the children have primarily
resided with Plaintiff at her address and the parties have been
attempting to exchange custody of the children with Defendant on an
every-other weekend basis and one evening per week basis.
6. No present custody order exists and Plaintiff has no
knowledge of any other litigation concerning custody of the
children in this or another court and Plaintiff has no information of
a custody proceeding concerning the children pending in a court of
this commonwealth.
7. Plaintiff does not know of a person not a party to the
proceedings who has physical custody of the children or claims to have
custody or visitation rights with respect to the children.
8. During the past several months, the parties have been able to
generally agree to a custody schedule.
9. Recently, the partes have been unable to agree upon a custody
schedule, pick-up and drop-off times, transportation issues, and an
order of court is necessary to develop a routine period of custody
along with holiday schedules and terms which address other important
dates for custodial purposes.
10. The best interests and permanent welfare of the children will
be served by ordering that both parties share legal custody of the
children and directing that Plaintiff have primary physical custody of
the children and that Defendant shall have periods of partial physical
custody for the following reasons:
(A) Plaintiff is a fit parent who can take care of the children
and who can provide them with a supportive, safe and healthy
environment;
(B) Defendant's conduct and behavior is not in the best interest
of the children in that:
(i) Defendant has been unable to maintain a stable residence
and has demonstrated an interest in seeing the children whenever
custody fits his schedule rather than maintaining a regular custody
2
relation with the children;
(ii) Defendant has repeatedly initiated arguments in the
presence of the children; and
(iii) Defendant has repeated disparaged the reputation of
Plaintiff in the presence of the children; and
(iv) Defendant has repeatedly failed to pick-up the children
after the parties had agreed upon custody times and schedules
causing Plaintiff to incur substantial disruption in her schedule
and work related activities; and
(v) Defendant has, on occasion, indicated his desire to keep
one of the children in the presence of Plaintiff and the children
causing substantial confusion and disruption in the custody
schedule and contacts.
11. A custody order is necessary in this case due to the parties
inability to agree upon reasonable custody arrangements which are in the
best interest of the children.
WHEREFORE, Jennifer L. Miller, Plaintiff herein, respectfully
requests that this Honorable Court enter a Custody order which grants
Plaintiff and Defendant joint legal custody, and which grants Plaintiff
primary physical custody with periods of partial physical custody to
Defendant, and addresses issues of holidays and vacations.
Date: December /6, 1999
