No. 1028, Defendant Jauss, by and through her attorneys, MidPenn Legal Services, preliminarily objects to Plaintiff's Complaint and moves for its dismissal as follows: I. MOTION TO STRIKE/FAILURE OF PLEADING TO CONFORM TO LAW AND RULE OF COURT 1. Plaintiff filed a Complaint demanding damages in the amount of $2,260.55 plus, interest, costs, and attorneys' fees. 2. Plaintiff has failed to attach to the Complaint a signed written contract between Plaintiff and Defendant. Although this contract would form the very core of Plaintiff s case, such a writing has not been appended to the Complaint, nor its absence explained, as required by Pa. R.C.P. No. 1019(1). 3. Although Plaintiff avers that a credit card was issued to Defendant in, no such cardholder agreement was attached to the Complaint. WHEREFORE, Defendant Jauss, demands that Plaintiff's Complaint be dismissed. II. MOTION TO STRIKE/INSUFFICIENT SPECIFICITY OF PLEADING 4. Paragraph's 1-3 are incorporated herein by reference hereto. 5. As a whole, the Complaint is grossly vague and lacking in factual averments such that Defendant is without knowledge or information sufficient to form a meaningful response and prepare a defense. 6. The Complaint fails to provide any documentation or accounting of charges allegedly made by Defendant, which would support Plaintiff's claim of damages, such as a breakdown of charges, payments, and interest, so that Defendant can properly formulate a response and assert any counterclaims. 7. Given the generality of Plaintiff s allegations and failure to attach any documentation to support its claim, the Complaint fails to satisfy the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure. WHEREFORE, Defendant Jauss demands that Plaintiff's Complaint be dismissed. Date: PENN LEGAL SERVICES By: ~-~-~- . ~~ ' ra D'Alo, Esquire ast Louther Street Carlisle, PA 17013 (717)243-9400 Sup. Ct.
