JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
PREUMNARY OBJECTIONS OF DEFENDANTS CCP & COMPANY, INC. AND
MCDONALD'S OF BOWMANSDALE TO PLAINTIFFS' COMPLAINT
AND NOW, come Defendants, CCP & Company, Inc., and McDonald's of
Bowmansd.ale, by and through their counsel, Thomas, Thomas & Hafer, LLP, and
bring the following Preliminary Objections to Plaintiffs' Complaint, and in support
thereof, aver as follows:
1. Plaintiffs brought the within lawsuit against Objecting Defendants as
the result of a fall that occurred on December 9, 2005. Plaintiff Sandra Danner
claims to have sustained various injuries as a result of the accident. See Complaint,
a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto and identified as Exhibit A.
2. Plaintiffs' Complaint fails to conform to the Pennsylvania Rules of
Civil Procedure and as a result, Objecting Defendants bring the within Preliminary
Objections to Plaintiffs' Complaint before this Honorable Court.
MOTION TO STRIKE PARAGRAPHS 160, 16(I), AND 16 (J) CONTAINED
WITHIN PLAINTIFFS' COMPLAINT FOR FAILING TO COMPLY WITH
PENNSYLVANIA RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 1019(a)
3. Objecting Defendants CCP & Company, Inc., and McDonald's of
Bowmansdale incorporate by reference Paragraphs 1 through 2 of their Preliminary
Objections as though the same were set forth herein at length.
4. In Paragraphs 16(h), (i) and 0) of Plaintiffs' Complaint, Plaintiffs claim
that the negligence of Objecting Defendants consisted of.
(h) Defendants failed to use reasonable care in the maintenance and
use of the property and to protect invitees from foreseeable harm;
(i) Defendants failed to anticipate potential harm to business invitees
and eliminate the risk of harm; and
0) Defendants failed to exercise a reasonable degree of caution and
skill reasonably required under the circumstances.
¶ 16.
5. Under Pennsylvania law, averments of liability are subject to scrutiny
under the specificity requirements of Pa. R.C.P. 1019(a).
6. By not specifically listing the claimed items of alleged negligence in
Paragraphs 16(h), (i), and 0), and instead stating ambiguously with respect to the
alleged negligence in those paragraphs, Plaintiffs have violated Pennsylvania Rule
of Civil Procedure 1019(a) in that Plaintiffs have not stated all the material facts in
a concise and summary form.
7. In ruling on the specificity of a plaintiff's allegations, Pennsylvania
Courts have sustained Preliminary Objections under circumstances similar to those
in the instant case. See, Connor v. Allegheny Hosp. 461 A.2d 600 (Pa. 1983).
8. Without striking the foregoing, Objecting Defendants would be left to
speculate as to what other claims of negligence Plaintiffs may claim as a result of
this incident and as to the entirety of Plaintiffs' claims of injuries. These violations
significantly impede Objecting Defendants' ability to defend against the claims
raised in this case, and are in direct violation of Pa. R.C.P. 1019(a).
9. As such, this Honorable Court should strike Paragraphs 16(h), (i) and
(j) of Plaintiffs' Complaint.
WHEREFORE, Defendants CCP & Company, Inc., and McDonald's of
Bowmansdale request that this Honorable Court strike Paragraphs 16(h), (1), and (j)
from Plaintiffs' Complaint.
MOTION TO STRIKE PARAGRAPHS 200, 20(I), AND 120(4) CONTAINED
WITHIN PLAINTIFFS' COMPLAINT FOR FAILING TO COMPLY WITH
PENNSYLVANIA RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 1019(a)
10. Objecting Defendants incorporate by reference Paragraphs 1 through 9
of their Preliminary Objections as though the same were set forth herein at length.
11. In Paragraphs 20(h), (i) and (j) of Plaintiffs' Complaint, Plaintiffs claim
that the negligence of Objecting Defendants consisted of
(h) Defendants failed to use reasonable care in the maintenance and
use of the property and to protect invitees from foreseeable harm;
(i) Defendants failed to anticipate potential harm to business invitees
and eliminate the risk of harm; and
(j) Defendants failed to exercise a reasonable degree of caution and
skill reasonably required under the circumstances.
¶ 20.
12. Under Pennsylvania law, averments of liability are subject to scrutiny
under the specificity requirements of Pa. R.C.P. 1019(a).
13. By not specifically listing the claimed items of alleged negligence in
Paragraphs 20(h), (i), and (j), and instead stating ambiguously with respect to the
alleged negligence in those paragraphs, Plaintiffs have violated Pennsylvania Rule
of Civil Procedure 1019(a) in that Plaintiffs have not stated all the material facts in
a concise and summary form.
14. In ruling on the specificity of a plaintiff's allegations, Pennsylvania
Courts have sustained Preliminary Objections under circumstances similar to those
in the instant case. See, Connor v. Allegheny Hosp. 461 A.2d 600 (Pa. 1983).

JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
UNCONTESTED MOTION FOR EXTENSION OF DISCOVERY DEADLINE
AND NOW, come Defendants, CCP & Company, Inc., and McDonald's of
Bowmansdale, by and through their counsel, John F. Yaninek of Thomas, Thomas & Hafer,
LLP, and bring the following Uncontested Motion for Extension of Discovery Deadline in
support thereof, aver as follows:
1. This action arises out of a slip and fall incident that occurred on December 9,
2005, at the McDonald's restaurant located at 1222 Bumblebee Hollow Road, Mechanicsburg,
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
2. On April 28, 2014, the Court entered an Order setting a discovery deadline of
June 30, 2014.
3. Plaintiffs' counsel and the insurance adjuster are in the process of discussing a
possible settlement of this case, but to date, have been unable to settle the matter.
5. Defendants and Plaintiffs aver that a ninety (90) day extension of the discovery
deadline will be appropriate to afford Defendants time to complete medical records procurement
and conduct depositions of Plaintiffs in the event settlement does not occur.
6. Counsel for Plaintiffs concurs in this Motion and the parties are in agreement to
extend the discovery deadline until September 30, 2014.
7. Neither party will be prejudiced if this Honorable Court extends the discovery
deadline.
WHEREFORE, Defendants respectfully request the Court issue an Order extending the
discovery deadline to September 30, 2014.
By:
Date: June 18, 2014
Respectfully submitted,
