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. Date: I I *T By: Respectfully Submitted: MARIA P. COGNETTI & ASSOCIATES KRISTO'PHER T.
