PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS
AND NOW, comes Defendant, Gary L. Hoover, by and through his attorney, Kristopher T.
Smull, Esquire, and files the following Preliminary Objections to the Complaint in Divorce filed by
Plaintiff and in support thereof avers as follows:
MOTION TO STRIKE (OR DISMISS)
FOR IMPROPER VENUE PURSUANT TO 23 Pa.C.S. &3104(e)
On or about October 24, 2007, Plaintiff filed a Complaint in Divorce to the above term
and number.
2. Paragraph 1 of Plaintiff's Complaint in Divorce states, "Plaintiff in this Action in
Divorce is DAWN M. SHUGHART, an adult individual who resides at 199 Crain Drive, Carlisle,
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013."
3. Paragraph 2 of Plaintiff's Complaint in Divorce states, "Defendant is GARY L.
HOOVER, an adult individual and citizen of the United States of America who resides at 6254 Stirrup
Court, Harrisburg, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania 17111."
4. Plaintiff does not reside at 199 Crain Drive, nor does she have any property interest
in said residence. Said residence is the home of a friend with whom she was staying after vacating
the marital residence on October 25, 2007.
5. Prior to vacating the marital home on October 25, 2007, Plaintiffresided in the marital
home at 6254 Stirrup Court, Harrisburg, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania 17111.
6. 23 Pa.C.S. §3104(e) with regard to venue states:
(e) Venue.--A proceeding for divorce or annulment may be brought in the county:
(1) where the defendant resides;
(2) if the defendant resides outside of this Commonwealth, where the
plaintiff resides;
(3) ofmatrimonial domicile, ifthe plaintiffhas continuously resided in the
county;
(4) prior to six months after the date of final separation and with
agreement of the defendant, where the plaintiff resides or, if neither
party continues to reside in the county ofmatrimonial domicile, where
either party resides; or (emphasis added)
(5) after six months after the date of final separation, where either party
resides.
7. Plaintiff had "resided" in Cumberland County for only a few days before filing her
Complaint in Divorce and Defendant has not agreed to proceed in Cumberland County.
8. As Plaintiff had not resided in Cumberland County for six (6) months prior to her filing
a Complaint in Divorce, Cumberland County is not the proper venue to proceed with the parties'
divorce action.
9. Defendant seeks to have Plaintiff's Complaint in Divorce dismissed with prejudice so
that the parties can proceed with a divorce in Dauphin County, the county of matrimonial domicile.
WHEREFORE, Defendant requests this Honorable Court dismiss Plaintiff's Complaint in
Divorce for improper venue.
