The Respondents are the parties and Plaintiff's attorney, whose name and address appears below. 3. Defendant engaged Petitioner to represent him in this divorce action and related matters more than a year ago. Since that time, Petitioner has devoted his efforts to performing his professional obligations to Defendant and to protecting Defendant's interests in this litigation. 4. As a result of certain actions taken by Defendant, Petitioner is no longer able to acquit his professional responsibilities to Defendant or to this court. The actions of Defendant which have created this problem include: a. Defendant has failed to supply Petitioner economic information which Petitioner has repeatedly requested. b. Defendant has repeatedly disregarded and failed to comply with instructions and advice given to Defendant by Petitioner. c. Defendant has failed to disclose to Petitioner, fully and accurately, actions which Defendant has taken contrary to the instructions and advice to Petitioner. d. Defendant has failed to communicate with Petitioner as requested by Petitioner. 5. The ability of Petitioner to perform his professional and ethical duties to Defendant, to the other parties in this litigation, and to the court has been compromised by the actions of Defendant. 6. Petitioner has provided a copy of this Petition to the Respondents and believes that the Respondents will not concur with his request for leave to withdraw as Defendant`s attorney. - 7. Previous matters in this action have been assigned to the Honorable J. Wesley Oler.

LEBO, § No.: 07-5488 Civil Trial Plaintiff § v. § Civil Action -Law ROBERT A. LEBO, § Defendant § DIVORCE PLAINTIFF/WIFE'S PETITION FOR SPECIAL RELIEF 1. The Petitioner is the above-captioned Plaintiff, Alice Lebo, an adult individual residing at 16 Coral Drive, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013. 2. The Respondent is the above-captioned Defendant, Robert A. Lebo, an adult individual residing at 16 Valley Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013 who was represented by Samuel L. Andes, Esquire, but Attorney Andes has filed a Petition to Withdrawal as counsel. 3. The primary marital asset in this matter is a 401(k) account which contained approximately $122,000.00 but was depleted post separation sometime in June, 2007. A copy of the statement showing said withdrawal is attached hereto, marked Exhibit "A," and incorporated in by reference. 4. In order to try to trace the proceeds of this $122,000 withdraw from the 401(k) done by Defendant/Respondent/Husband, Petitioner/Plaintiff/Wife has served on Husband's counsel, a Request for Production of Documents and Interrogatories. 5. Defendant/Respondent/Husband has so far failed and refused to produce any documents, answer any interrogatories and/or give any information that was requested through counsel as a result of informal discover and requests by letter. 6. Since the 401(k) account balance of approximately $122,000 was the primary and only real asset of this marriage, it is absolutely imperative that Plaintiff/Petitioner/Wife learn the location of said proceeds from the withdrawal of said $122,000 to the extent that any proceeds still exist and that same be "frozen". 7. Without the relief requested, it is believed that Defendant/Respondent/Husband is likely to secrete, alienate, spend, give, borrow against and or in some other way deplete whatever is left of the proceeds so as to deny Plaintiff/Petitioner/Wife access to this marital asset and any ability to equitably distribute the marital property of these parties. 8. This matter is the subject of a Petition for Preservation of Assets before this Honorable Court. A Temporary Order was entered into the Court on October 22, 2007. A true and correct copy of the current order is attached hereto, marked Exhibit "B," and incorporated herein by reference. A hearing in the matter relative to a permanent Order is scheduled for January 23, 2008. It should also be noted that the withdrawal by Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A. Lebo in, June, 2007, was before entry of the Temporary Order and not after, and, therefore, is not able to be dealt with by a contempt action. WHEREFORE, Petitioner/Plaintiff/Wife, Alice F. Lebo prays the Honorable Court for the following reliefs A. That the Court order the Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A. Lebo to divulge the whereabouts of whatever is left of the proceeds of $122,388.34, withdrawn from his TYCO 401(k) in June, 2007; B. That the Court order the Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A. Lebo, to turn over to Plaintiff s counsel, all bank statements and similar documentation showing the whereabouts of said proceeds and the tracing of same from the withdrawal to their present location; C. That the Court order the Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A. Lebo, to have his accounts in whatever form in which the remaining proceeds of the said $122,388.34 withdrawal is currently contained, to be frozen so as to make it such that he may not alienate, sell, cash in, give, pledge, borrow against or in any other way adversely affect Petitioner/Plaintiff/Wife's interest therein under the Divorce Code; D. That the Court order Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A.

Your Petitioner is the above-referenced Plaintiff, Alice F. Lebo now Alice F. Swengel, an adult individual residing at 16 Coral Drive, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013. 2. The Respondent is the above-referenced Defendant, Robert A. Lebo, an adult individual residing at 16 Valley Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013. 3. The parties have previously been before the Court regarding their pending divorce action. The primary asset of the parties' marriage is a 401(k) account in Husband's name alone. Husband's dissipation of the account was the subject of a prior Petition for Special Relief filed by Petitioner/Wife on January 9, 2008. A true and correct copy of Wife's Petition for Special Relief is attached hereto, marked Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein by reference. 4. As a result of the Petition for Special Relief, an Order was entered on January 17, 2008, scheduling the matter for a hearing on January 23, 2008. A true and correct copy of the Court's Order is attached hereto, marked Exhibit "B" and incorporated herein by reference. Prior to the scheduled hearing date, Samuel L. Andes, attorney for Robert A. Lebo filed a Petition to Withdraw as counsel for Respondent citing his inability to continue to acquit his professional responsibilities to Respondent and the Court as a result of certain actions of the Respondent, Robert A. Lebo. Samuel L. Andes, Esquire, was granted leave to withdraw as counsel. Since Januazy 31, 2008, Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, is pro se. 6. Following the hearing held January 23, 2008, an Order was entered requiring Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, to answer the outstanding Interrogatories and Request for Production of Documents which had been served upon his counsel on or about December 13, 2007. In addition, Robert A. Lebo was required to sign a release in favor of Petitioner's counsel for release of information from State Farm and Wachovia Bank. Finally, Robert A. Lebo was directed to submit to a deposition noticed by Petitioner's counsel. A true and correct copy of the Order is attached hereto, mazked Exhibit "C", and incorporated herein by reference. 7. By letter dated Januazy 30, 2008, counsel forwarded to Respondent copies of the previous Orders, the proposed Releases for State Farm and Wachovia for his execution as well as a Notice of Deposition requiring Respondent's appeazance for depositions on February 22, 2008. A true and correct copy of the letter and enclosures are attached hereto, mazked Exhibit "D" collectively, and incorporated herein by reference. 8. On February 22, 2008, the pazalegal for Petitioner's counsel took a call from Esther Lebo, Respondent's mother, indicating that Respondent was ill and that he could not appeaz in counsel's office for the depositions. Esther Lebo inquired as to whether the depositions could be rescheduled. Counsel for the Petitioner agreed that the deposition could be rescheduled. 9. In a second conversation between Esther Lebo and the pazalegal on February 22, 2008, a rescheduled date was proposed to Ms. Lebo for the taking of Respondent's deposition. At that time, Esther Lebo provided her assurance that Mr. Lebo would be available on Mazch 6, 2008, at 1:00 p.m., the rescheduled date and time for the deposition. Confirmation of the rescheduling was forwarded to Respondent on or about February 22, 2008. A true and correct copy of the letter and Notice of Deposition is attached hereto, marked Exhibit "E" and incorporated herein by reference. 10. On March 5, 2008, paralegal for Petitioner's counsel took a call from Esther Lebo, Respondent's mother, indicating that Respondent could not appear in counsel's office for the depositions. 11. Following consultation with Petitioner's counsel, the pazalegal returned a call to Esther Lebo informing her that if Respondent would provide Answers to the Interrogatories that it may not be necessary for Respondent to appeaz for purposes of taking his deposition. In addition, counsel's pazalegal suggested that perhaps the location for the taking of the deposition could be moved closer to Respondent's home rather than in York as originally scheduled. Esther Lebo was informed that Respondent either needed to appeaz for a deposition or provide Answers to the Interrogatories on or before Mazch 15, 2008. She further indicated to Esther Lebo that if Respondent did not comply, a Petition for Special Relief/Contempt would be filed with the Court. Esther Lebo ultimately hung up on the pazalegal. A true and correct copy of the pazalegal's Memo to Petitioner's counsel outlining the conversation with Esther Lebo is attached hereto, marked Exhibit "F" and incorporated herein by reference. 12. To date, Petitioner's counsel has not received Answers to the Interrogatories nor any further communication from Respondent or from Respondent's mother, Esther Lebo, on his behalf. 13. Petitioner's counsel has not received the executed Authorizations for State Farm and Wachovia from the Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, as Ordered by the Court. 14. Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, has consistently been uncooperative throughout the entire divorce proceeding to Petitioner's great detriment not only as it relates to the dissipation of assets but in the expenditure of counsel fees in connection with Respondent's conduct. Given Respondent's conduct, Petitioner was required to previously file with the Court a Petition for Special Relief and a Petition for Preservation of Assets. 15. Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, is in contempt of Court for his failure to comply with the terms of the Court's Order dated Januazy 24, 2008. WHEREFORE, Petitioner/Plaintiff, Alice F. Lebo now Alice F. Swengel prays the Honorable Court for the following relief: A. That the Court find Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, in contempt of Court for his violation of and non-compliance with the terms of the Court's Order of January 23, 2008; B. That the Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, be immediately required to appear before this Honorable Court for purposes of divulging the whereabouts of the remainder of the proceeds of $122,388.34 withdrawn from his TYCO 401(k) in June of 2007; C. That the Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, be immediately required to turn over to Petitioner's counsel, all bank statements and similar documentation showing the whereabouts of said proceeds and the tracing of same from the date of withdrawal to the present time; D. That once the proceeds of the 401(k) are located, that the Court Order that the proceeds be frozen so as to make it such that Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, may not alienate, sell, cash in, give, pledge, borrow against or in any other way adversely affect Petitioner's interest therein under the Divorce Code; E. That the Court require Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, to immediately execute the appropriate Releases/Authorizations for State Farm and Wachovia Bank; F. That the Court require Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, to pay counsel fees to Petitioner's counsel in the amount of $1,000.00 for the preparation and presentation of the within Petition; G. That the Court require Respondent, Robert A. Lebo, to pay additional counsel fees in the amount of $1,000.00 imposed upon him as sanctions for his contempt of Court; H. Such other relief and/or sanctions as may be deemed appropriate and necessary including but not limited to the issuance of a warrant for the arrest of Robert A. Lebo for his failure to cooperate and/or comply with prior and/or future Orders of Court. ,~- ~ ,, c__w_ N. Christopher Menges sq ire Attorney for Petitioner Sup. Ct. I.D.

The Petitioner is the above-captioned Plaintiff, Alice Lebo, an adult individual residing at 16 Coral Drive, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013 2. The Respondent is the above-captioned Defendant, Robert A. Lebo, an adult individual residing at 16 Valley Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013 who was represented by Samuel L. Andes, Esquire, but Attorney Andes has filed a Petition to Withdrawal as counsel. 3. The primary marital asset in this matter is a 401(k) account which contained approximately $122,000.00 but was depleted post separation sometime in June, 2007. A copy of the statement showing said withdrawal is attached hereto, marked Exhibit "A," and incorporated in by reference. 4. In order to try to trace the proceeds of this $122,000 withdraw from the 401(k) done by Defendant/Respondent/Husband, Petitioner/Plaintiff/Wife has served on Husband's counsel, a Request for Production of Documents and Interrogatories. EXHIBIT Defendant/Respondent/Husband has so far failed and refused to produce any documents, answer any interrogatories and/or give any information that was requested through counsel as a result of informal discover and requests by letter. 6. Since the 401 {k) account balance of approximately $122,000 was the primary and only real asset of this marriage, it is absolutely imperative that Plaintiff/Petitioner/Wife learn the location of said proceeds from the withdrawal of said $122,000 to the extent that any proceeds still exist and that same be "frozen". 7. Without the relief requested, it is believed that Defendant/Respondent/Husband is likely to secrete, alienate, spend, give, borrow against and or in some other way deplete whatever is left of the proceeds so as to deny Plaintiff/Petitioner/Wife access to this marital asset and any ability to equitably distribute the marital property of these parties. 8. This matter is the subject of a Petition for Preservation of Assets before this Honorable Court. A Temporary Order was entered into the Court on October 22, 2007. A true and correct copy of the current order is attached hereto, marked Exhibit "B," and incorporated herein by reference. A hearing in the matter relative to a permanent Order is scheduled for January 23, 2008. It should also be noted that the withdrawal by Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A. Lebo in, June, 2007, was before entry of the Temporary Order and not after, and, therefore, is not able to be dealt with by a contempt action. WHEREFORE, Petitioner/Plaintiff/~Wife, Alice F. Lebo prays the Honorable Court for the following relief: A. That the Court order the Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A. Lebo to divulge the whereabouts of whatever is left of the proceeds of $122,388.34, withdrawn from his TYCO 401(k) in June, 2007; B. That the Court order the Respondent/DefendantlHusband, Robert A. Lebo, to turn over to Plaintiff s counsel, all bank statements and similar documentation showing the whereabouts of said proceeds and the tracing of same from the withdrawal to their present location; C. That the Court order the Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A. Lebo, to have his accounts in whatever form in which the remaining proceeds of the said $122,388.34 withdrawal is currently contained, to be frozen so as to make it such that he may not alienate, sell, cash in, give, pledge, borrow against or in any other way adversely affect Petitioner/Plaintiff/Wife's interest therein under the Divorce Code; D. That the Court order Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A. Lebo, to fully comply with the discovery requests filed byPetitioner/Plaintiff/Wife and to answer all such Interrogatories and furnish all such documents requested within thirty (30) days or suffer sanctions without further Order of Court, such sanctions including but not limited to payment of attorney's fees; E. That the Court direct Respondent/Defendant/Husband, Robert A. Lebo, to pay to counsel for Petitioner/Plaintiff/Wife, the sum of $1,000 in attorney's fees for bringing this Petition as well as the Petition for Preservation of Assets along with ongoing attorney's fees thereafter; F.

I informed her that if Mr. Lebo would answer the Interrogatories that were.served upon him back in October or November of 2007, that you may not even need to take Mr. Lebo's deposition. I informed her that the answers to the Interrogatories were long overdue as Mr. Lebo had thirty (30) days to respond to them following his receipt of them. I further communicated to her that perhaps Mr. Lebo's deposition could be taken at a location closer to his home rather than in York. She offered no response. I told her that Mr. Lebo either needed to appear for a deposition or provide answers to the Interrogatories on or before March 15th. If he did not comply, I informed her that you would be filing a Petition for Contempt with the Court. She attempted to engage me in an argument as to the history of this case, her son's medical condition, the interrogatories, the deposition, etc. Since she was argumentative, I somewhat cut her short, reiterated your offer of the deposition and/or answers before March 15th or contempt was going to be filed. She hung up on me. Her number is 243-6269 :~ EXHIBIT CERTIFICATE OF SERVICE I, Beth Ann King, Paralegal, do hereby certify that on the 12~' day of August, 2008, I caused to be deposited into the United States Mail at York, Pennsylvania, postage prepaid, ordinary mail, a true and correct copy of the foregoing Petition for Contempt and Sanctions addressed as follows: Robert A.

The Defendant is sentenced to undergo imprisonment in the Cumberland County Prison for a period of 4 months. The condition of purge with respect to this sentence is that the Defendant within 20 days of today's date serve upon Plaintiff's counsel, without objection, the following: (a) answers to Plaintiff's outstanding interrogatories and copies of the documents requested in Plaintiff's outstanding request for production of documents, in verified form in accordance with the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure, (b) a release authorizing and directing State Farm Insurance Company to release any information requested by Plaintiff's counsel regarding any life insurance policies issued on the Plaintiff's life; and (c) a release authorizing and directing Wachovia Bank to release any information requested by Plaintiff's counsel regarding any account of Defendant, including any certificate of deposit, at the said bank, for the period from June 1, 2007, to the present.

SWENGEL, by and through her attorney, N. Christopher Menges, Esquire, his attorney, and files this Petition, whereof the following is a statement: 1. ALICE F. LEBO now ALICE F. SWENGEL is the Plaintiff (hereinafter referred to as "Wife") in the above-captioned action. 2. ROBERT A. LEBO is the Defendant (hereinafter referred to as "Husband") in the above-captioned action. 3. The parties were married on November 21, 2003, and Plaintiff/Wife filed a Complaint in Divorce on September 17, 2007. 4. Plaintiff/Wife filed a Petition for Preservation of Assets with the Court on October 18, 2007, alleging that the parties' marital estate consisted virtually only of Defendant/Husband's 401(k) account. 5. On October 22, 2007, the Honorable J. Wesley Oler, Jr., Judge, entered an Order barring Defendant/Husband from in any way depreciating, transferring, reclassifying or tampering in any way with the value, type or substance of his 401(k) Plan. Defendant/Husband was directed to provide an immediate accounting of all funds Defendant/Husband removed from the account. Lastly, the Court directed that Defendant/Husband's 401(k) account be frozen and withdrawals by Defendant/Husband or anyone on Husband's behalf be prohibited. 6. Plaintiff/Wife later learned that Defendant/Husband withdrew the entire proceeds of his 401(k) Plan in the amount of $122,854.38 sometime during the month of June, 2007. 7. Plaintiff/Wife filed a Petition for Special Relief on January 9, 2008, seeking an Order directing Defendant/Husband to answer outstanding discovery requests, including disclosure of the whereabouts of the funds withdrawn by DefendantlHusband from the 401(k) account. 8. On January 24, 2008, following a hearing on Plaintiff/Wife's Petition for Special Relief, an Order was entered by the Honorable J. Wesley Oler, Jr., Judge, directing Defendant/Husband to answer all outstanding discovery requests, execute appropriate releases authorizing Plaintiff/Wife's counsel to obtain additional information and submit himself for purposes of the taking of his deposition. 9. On August 13, 2008, Plaintiff/Wife filed with the Court a Petition for Contempt and Sanctions due to Defendant/Husband's failure to comply with the Court's Order of January 24, 2008, and as a result a hearing was scheduled. 10. A hearing was conducted by the Honorable J. Wesley Oler, Jr., on December 18, 2008. 11. At the time of the hearing, Defendant/Husband admitted that he gave to his mother, Esther Lebo, the sum of Fifty Thousand and 00/100 ($50,000.00) Dollars from the proceeds of his 401(k) account and that said proceeds were used by Esther Lebo to pay down the outstanding mortgage on her home located at 16 Valley Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania. 12. Under the Pennsylvania Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act (12 Pa.C.S. § 5101 et seq), Esther Lebo's receipt of the sum of Fifty Thousand and 00/100 ($50,000.00) Dollars, fraudulently given to her by Defendant/Husband, when said funds were a part of the marital estate, is a fraudulent transfer. 13. Under the Pennsylvania Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, a transferee of a fraudulent transfer can be sued and/or joined as a party. 14. Under the Divorce Code, the Divorce Court has broad powers of equity injoining a party as a defendant. 15. Under the Pennsylvania Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Defendant/Husband has been rendered insolvent, thus making the transfer fraudulent and, as a result, Plaintiff/Wife is entitled to the transfer being set aside and/or a lien and/or execution against the transferee's real property located at 16 Valley Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, said real estate being currently titled in the name of Esther Lebo. 16. In order to address Defendant/Husband's gift to his mother, Esther Lebo, of said marital funds, and in order to try to retrieve said marital funds from Esther Lebo, Defendant/Husband's Mother, it is requested that Esther Lebo be joined as an intervenor. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff/Wife, Alice F. Lebo now Alice F. Swengel, requests this Honorable Court join Esther Lebo as an Intervenor with regard to the above captioned action; and, further, that this action be listed in the lis pendens against Esther Lebo and against her real estate at 16 Valley Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, as a lis pendens.
