STATEMENT OF LAW
Under Section 2511(a)(1) of the Adoption Act, "[t]he rights of
parent in regard to a child may be terminated after a petition
filed on [the ground that t]he parent by conduct continuing for a
period of at least six months immediately preceding the filing of
the petition either has evidenced a settled purpose of
relinquishing parental claim to a child or has refused or failed to
perform parental duties."3
The Act further provides as follows:
The court in terminating the rights of a parent
shall give primary consideration to the needs and
welfare of the child. The rights of a parent shall
not be terminated solely on the basis of
environmental factors such as inadequate housing,
furnishings, income, clothing and medical care if
found to be beyond the control of the parent. With
respect to any petition filed pursuant to
subsection (a) (1)..., the court shall not consider
any efforts by the parent to remedy the conditions

and convincing evidence." In re Adoption of Hamilton, 379 Pa.

"This principle requires evidence which is 'so clear, direct,
weighty, and convincing as to enable the [factfinder]
clear conviction without hesitancy of the truth of
facts in issue.'"s
to come to a
the precise
The process by which an issue of involuntary termination has
traditionally been analyzed has been described as follows:
[O]nce the court has determined that the
requirements for involuntary termination of
parental rights pursuant to 23 Pa. C.S.A.
S2511(a) have been met, the court must further
inquire whether termination will clearly serve
the "needs and welfare" of the child. In
answering that question, "it is the child's
welfare that is paramount."

AFFIDAVIT
On September 15, 2001, I, Cory A. Cormany, did witness Mr. Maswadeh
Arafat solicit information in a unit staff station located in the Cumberland County
Prison. The Defendant Maswadeh Ararat did make and respond to questions and
statements regarding the catastrophe announced in New York, pertinent the
destruction of the World Trade Center. The Defendant did reply to propaganda
remarkable his incarceration saying, "I'm an American too...I needed money, I
needed money." Mr. Maswadeh Arafat did also state, "I am a Muslim...we are
peaceful people and only kill when we need to." A C. O. Albright of the
Cumberland County Prison was present during such interrogatories extrinsic other
inmates and another staffing associate, and I did inform the Defendant that he did
not have to make or corroborate such issues. I did tell Mr. Maswadeh Ararat that
he did have a right to silence. The Defendant Maswadeh Arafat did say, "I know,
I know...they told me my rights...I am not ashamed. You see it was an accident, I
only needed the insurance." Mr. Maswadeh Arafat was alleged to be in prison for
burning down his place of business and for trafficking narcotics.
On November 4, 2001, I, Cory A. Cormany, did witness Mr. Maswadeh
Arafat proceed numerous questions and comments in the Law Library at the
Cumberland County Prison. The Defendant Maswadeh Ararat did implicate a Mr.
Alonzo Thorton, a Mr. Joe Anilus, and a Mr. Keith Walker; seemingly relevant a
package and a conversation he was to have. I did surmise that the Defendants
Alonzo Thorton, Joe Anilus and Keith Walker all participated in the burning of a
business located in the Historic District of Carlisle, Pennsylvania, from Mr.
Maswadeh Arafat's statements. I did acknowledge the Defendant say, "I know
they hired this Walker guy, but I was out of the country and didn't own the
business..." Mr. Maswadeh Ararat did later contradict and say, "I don't know, I
sold the business and got the money I needed when it burned down."
Proceeding the events described in the foregoing paragraph, Mr. Maswadeh
Arafat did aggress a series of comments to me on several occasions. I did witness
the Defendant Maswadeh Ararat in a verbal and physical conflict in the
gymnasium of the Cumberland County Prison. The Defendant was loudly
procrastinating to another individual exclaiming, "don't tell people about my
money...they don't need to know...I need my bail." I did overhear the Defendant
continue exacerbation with a Mr. Carl Heyward also saying, "I'11 get it, I'll get
it...after he has his visit." It was my assumption that there was a pecuniary barter
taking place and I did not chose to continue to listen to such ongoing rhetoric. On
another occasion; the Defendant Maswadeh Arafat did speak to me asking, "What
should I do about the Federal Government and Fraud?" I did not answer his
question and did shrug my shoulders and walked off in the opposite direction of
the said; institutional gymnasium, in the Cumberland County Prison.
On December 31, 2001, I, Cory A. Cormany, did witness a Mr. Jimmy
Hernandez, alias Juan Sanchez, solicit information in the Law Library in the
Cumberland County Prison. The Defendant Jimmy Hernandez did remark and
collaborate numerous exasperations regarding his criminal problems. The
Defendant did continue on about a Mr. Cruz; who allegedly informed police
officers about illegal narcotic activity having occurred in Lebanon, Pennsylvania,
relevant himself. Mr. Jimmy Hernandez did present me with several indictment
orders troubling me as to my opinion extendible a futile and threatening
obligation. The Defendant Jimmy Hernandez did reply when I asked him about
his criminal dilemmas and said, "I guess I see what you're saying, but I can't say
exactly...I deal a lot of drugs you know...I just deal a lot of drugs." I did inform
the Defendant that he did not have to tell me of his problems and did also make
this point valid upon a preceding consulted occasion, likely a said criminal
conviction. The.Defendant Jimmy Hernandez did tell me quote, "don't worry
about it...I got ya."
Prescient the issues defined in the foregoing paragraph, Mr. Jimmy
Hernandez did conspire with the Mr, Maswadeh Ararat; again in the Law Library
at the Cumberland County Prison. I did witness the Defendant Jimmy Hemandez
give the Defendant Maswadeh Ararat something in a plain white envelope, and
then did literally refer, "you got me on Thursday right?" The opposing Defendant
did gratify the aforementioned Defendant seemingly to acknowledge an erectable
beneficial transaction. Mr. Maswadeh Arafat did continue and ramble on about
other matters proceeded the aforementioned destruction in New York City. The
Defendant Maswadeh Arafat did impose the thought that he knew people who
could do, or were capable of a harm. He did say, "I know people who hate the
United States Government do 'ya know what I am talking about?" The Defendant
did seem to become very emotional at that point and said something about the war
in Afghanistan, and did state that he wanted to kill Americans, especially; "Guards
and Cops." Mr. Maswadeh Arafat did additionally procrastinate that he had done,
"Business" with Mr. Jimmy Hemandez before. The Defendant Maswadeh Ararat
did state. "you know I'm good for it, we seen keys together, ya know blood." The
Defendant kept annoying me pursuant my legal endeavors and the common pleas
criminal case term number 01-2091 and 01-2536, going on about the typewriter
and why Americans and the United States should be destroyed, and that Islam
should have quote, "All the money and power in the world."

PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS OF DEFENDANTS, LYLE HERR,
SAMUEL COOVER AND DIRK BERRY~ TO PLAINTIFF'S COMPLAINT
Defendants, Lyle Herr, Samuel Coover and Dirk Berry, by and through their
attorney, William J. Devlin, Jr., hereby file Preliminary Objections to Plaintiff's Complaint
and in support thereof aver as follows:
1. Plaintiff Cory Cormany has filed a fifty-two (52) paragraph complaint
against various Defendants.

concise and summary form as required by the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure.

3. Plaintiff's Complaint contains paragraph after paragraph of nonsensical
sentences some of which contain English words and some which contain words that
appear to be wholly made up by Plaintiff.
4. Defendants, Lyle Herr, Samuel Coover and Dirk Berry names are
contained in only three paragraphs of plaintiff's Complaint (10, 12, 13 respectively).
5. For instance, in Paragraph 10 Plaintiff states:

Adams and the Common Pleas Court of Cumberland
County.
6. In Paragraph 12 Plaintiff alleges:
On October 2nd, of the year 2001, Defendant Samuel Coover

the Common Pleas Court of Cumberland County.
7. In Paragraph 13 Plaintiff alleges:

Cormany was directed and ordered a subpoena appearance,
as in accordance with the Defendant Dirk Berry, which did

10. Plaintiff alleges in paragraphs 37 and 43 that:

Preceding the situation and circumstances defined in the
aforementioned statements, the plaintiff Cory Cormany was

PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS OF DEFENDANTS, LYLE HERR,
SAMUEL COOVER AND DIRK BERRY~ TO PLAINTIFF'S COMPLAINT
Defendants, Lyle Herr, Samuel Coover and Dirk Berry, by and through their
attorney, William J. Devlin, Jr., hereby file Preliminary Objections to Plaintiff's Complaint
and in support thereof aver as follows:
1. Plaintiff Cory Cormany has filed a fifty-two (52) paragraph complaint
against various Defendants.
2. Plaintiffs Complaint fails to state any causes of action against Defendants,
Lyle Herr, Samuel Coover and Dirk Berry ("Cumberland County Defendants") in a
concise and summary form as required by the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure.
See PA.R.Civ. P. 1019 (a).
3. Plaintiff's Complaint contains paragraph after paragraph of nonsensical
sentences some of which contain English words and some which contain words that
appear to be wholly made up by Plaintiff.
4. Defendants, Lyle Herr, Samuel Coover and Dirk Berry names are
contained in only three paragraphs of plaintiff's Complaint (10, 12, 13 respectively).
5. For instance, in Paragraph 10 Plaintiff states:
On December 19th, of the year 1990, Defendant Lyle Herr
complained of an argumentative conversation, allegory the
Plaintiff Cory Cormany, and did later contradict such
stipulated implication, as in accordance with a Ms. Tina
Adams and the Common Pleas Court of Cumberland
County.
6. In Paragraph 12 Plaintiff alleges:
On October 2nd, of the year 2001, Defendant Samuel Coover
compiled a reactionary assault team, explicit the Plaintiff
Cory Cormany, and did later excuse such stipulated
implication, as in accordance with a Mr. David MacMain and
the Common Pleas Court of Cumberland County.
7. In Paragraph 13 Plaintiff alleges:
In and about the month of January 2002, Plaintiff Cory
Cormany was directed and ordered a subpoena appearance,
as in accordance with the Defendant Dirk Berry, which did
deface a criminal element in the common Pleas Court of
Cumberland County.
8. There are no plain and concise statements of what The Cumberland
County Defendants did that would warrant a cause of action being asserted against
them.
9. In Counts Two, Three and Four, Plaintiff alleges that Lyle Herr, Samuel
Coover and Dirk Berry were "willful misconduct".
10.
Plaintiff alleges in paragraphs 37 and 43 that:
Preceding the situation and circumstances defined in the
aforementioned statements, the plaintiff Cory Cormany was
not ever depositioned for the purpose of probable cause, nor
was he ever treated with an arbitrary reason of indifference
for the purpose of an immunological affirmation.
11. Plaintiff alleges in paragraph 49 that:
Preceding the situation and circumstances defined in the
aforementioned statements, the plaintiff Cory Cormany was
not ever summoned with prima-facie cause for the purpose
of indictment, nor was he ever dispositioned for the purpose
of an immunological service.
12. Nonsensical words placed on paper next to the names of Cumberland
County Defendants does not state a cause of action, and the Court should dismiss
Plaintiff's Complaint.
13. A demur will only be sustained where a Complaint or Pleading shows with
certainty that upon the facts averred, the law will not permit the Plaintiff to recover.
International Union of Operatin.q Enqineers v. Linesville Construction Co., 457 Pa. 220,

DEFENDANT~ ADMINISTRATION AND STAFF OF THE
CUMBERLAND COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION'S~
PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO PLAINTIFF'S COMPLAINT
AND NOW, comes Defendant, The Administration and Staff of the Cumberland County
Bar Association, by and through its attorneys, Thomas, Thomas & Hafer, LLP, and files these
Preliminary Objections to Plaintiff's Complaint and in support thereof, avers as follows:
I. FACTS AND PROCEDURAL HISTORY
1. Plaintiff began this action by filing a Complaint in the Court of Common Pleas of
Cumberland County on November 21, 2003. A copy of Plaintiff's Complaint is attached hereto
as Exhibit A.
2. Moving Defendant was never served with the Complaint.
3. First, service was attempted via first class mail to an incorrect address, thus a
copy was never even received.
4. Second, and regardless, service was not proper under the Pennsylvania Rules of
Civil Procedure.
5. The first notice Moving Defendants had of being a possible party in this matter
was from Attorney William Devlin, counsel for Defendants Herr, Coover and Berry, who copied
the Moving Defendants at the correct address when he filed his Preliminary Objections.
6. In addition to the lack of service and therefore lack of personal jurisdiction, after
reviewing the Complaint the Bar Association has no idea what Plaintiff is claiming.
7. Additionally, there is no cause of action set forth against the Bar Association.
II. THERE WAS NO SERVICE AND THEREFORE~ NO PERSONAL
JURISDICTION
8. Paragraphs 1 through 7 are incorporated herein as if set forth in full.
The Cumberland County Bar Association was never served was PlaintifFs
Complaint.
10.
The Plaintiff, according to his certificate of service, attempted to mail the
Complaint to an incorrect address. Exhibit A.
11. It is only because of Attorney William Devlin sending a copy to the correct
address with his Preliminary Objections, that the Moving Defendants were even aware of having
been named as a possible Defendant in a lawsuit.
In fact, a review of the docket reveals that there is no certificate of service filed by
12.
Plaintiff.
13.
Further, even if Plaintiff had mailed the Complaint to the Bar Association's
correct address, service would still be defective.
14. Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 400 requires that original process may only
be served within the Commonwealth by the Sheriff, except for several specific types of cases.
Pa.R.C.P. 400.
15. None of those exceptions apply to this case.
16. The requirements of the procedure that govern the validity of service of process
must be strictly followed. Burger v. Borough of Ingram, 697 A.2d 1037 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1997).
17. The return itself is required to demonstrate that service was made in conformity
with the rules. Id.
WHEREFORE, Defendant Cumberland County Bar Association respectfully submits that
service was inadequate and should therefore be set aside, as this Honorable Court does not have
personal jurisdiction over the Moving Defendants.
III. DEMURRER IS PROPER AS NO CAUSE OF ACTION IS PLED
18. Paragraphs 1 through 17 are incorporated herein as if set forth in full.
19. In addition to lack of, and improper, service, Plaintiff's Complaint fails to set
forth any cause of action against the Cumberland County Bar Association and as such, Moving
Defendants should be removed from the case.
20. Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1028 prescribes preliminary objections as
the appropriate method by which to challenge the legal sufficiency of the allegations a petitioner
raises as a basis for relief. Pa.R.C.P. 1029(a)(4); In re Adoption of S.P.T., 783 A.2d 779, 782
(Pa. Super. 2001).
21. Where a defendant files preliminary objections to a plaintiff's complaint in the
nature of a demurrer, the court's review is limited to the content of the complaint. In re
Adoption of S.P.T., 783 A.2d at 782.
22. Thus, the court may determine only whether, on the basis of the allegations the
plaintiff pled, he or she possesses a cause of action recognized at law. Id.
A review of the Complaint reveals that there is no cause of action alleged by the
23.
Plaintiff.
24.
Even taken as true, to the extent that one can make sense of the allegations,
nothing in the Complaint can be interpreted to establish a cause of action generally.
25. Moreover, there is no cause of action set forth in the Complaint against the
Cumberland County Bar Association.
26. The only paragraph that even mentions the Bar Association is Paragraph 2 which
alleges that Senior Judge Sheely is somehow an employee of the Cumberland County Bar
Association.
27. Nothing in the Complaint states why the Moving Defendants are in the caption of
this case.
28. As such, nothing in the Complaint can be read as establishing a cause of action
against the Moving Defendants and a demurrer as to the Cumberland County Bar Association is
appropriate.
WHEREFORE, Defendants Cumberland County Bar Association respectfully submit that
Plaintiff's Complaint fails to set forth any viable cause of action against Moving Defendants and
as such, a demurrer is proper.
IV. THE COMPLAINT SHOULD BE STRICKEN FOR FAILURE TO PLEAD IN
A CLEAR AND CONCISE MANNER
29. Paragraphs 1 through 28 are incorporated herein as if set forth in full.
30. Finally, Moving Defendants submit that as Plaintiff has completely failed to plead
his Complaint in a plain and concise manner under the Rules, it should be stricken.
31.
Super. 1996).
32.
Pennsylvania is a fact pleading state. Miketic v. Baron, 675 A.2d 324, 330 (Pa.
Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1019(a) requires that "[t]he material facts
on which a cause of action or defense is based shall be stated in a concise and summary form."
Pa.R.C.P. 1019(a).
33. The purpose of Rule 1019(a) is to require the pleader to disclose material facts
sufficient to enable the adverse party to prepare his case and to convince the court that the
averments are not merely subterfuge. Smith v. Wagner, 588 A.2d 1308, 1310 (Pa. Super. 1991).
34. The complaint must define the issues, and thus every act or performance essential
to that end must be set forth. Miketic v. Barom 675 A.2d 324, 330 (Pa. Super. 1996).
35. Rule 1019(a) means the complaint must not only apprise the defendant of an
asserted claim, but it must also synopsize the facts essential to support the claim. Id.
36. The complaint should be specifically specific so as to inform the defendant of the
nature of the improprieties with which he is charged. Local No. 163, International Union of
United Brewery v. Watkins, 207 A.2d 776, 779 (Pa. 1965).
37. General conclusions of law violate the requirements of Rule 1019(a).
Pennsylvania PUC v. Zanella Transit, Inc., 417 A.2d 860 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1980).
38. If a complaint fails to meet these requirements, the court may sustain a
preliminary objection for lack of specificity. Pa.R.C.P. 1028(a)(3).
Moving Defendants barely understand what Plaintiff is saying, no less what he is
39.
alleging.
40.
Nothing in the Complaint mentions any wrongdoing by the Bar Association, a
social and professional group of attorneys in the County.
41. Yet, it is named as a Defendant for no reason which is apparent in the Complaint.
42. This is a clear violation of Rule 1019 and thus, should the Court choose not to
grant the Moving Defendant's demurrer, the Complaint should be stricken for failure to plead in
a remotely plain and concise manner.
WHEREFORE, Defendant Cumberland County Bar Association respectfully submits that
Plaintiff's Complaint fails to meet any of the pleading requirements established by the Rules of
Civil Procedure and as such, should be stricken.

The bases of the preliminary objections are that only one paragraph in the
complaint mentions Defendant,3 that "[n]othing in the Complaint states why

incomprehensible.6 Defendant's preliminary objections were argued on March 24,

DISCUSSION
As a general proposition, Pennsylvania courts are not required to entertain
submissions which are incoherent, incomprehensible or unintelligible. See, e.g.,
Commonwealth v. Albert, 522 Pa. 331, 561 A.2d 736 (1989); Commonwealth ex
tel. Swarm v. Shovling, 423 Pa. 26, 233 A.2d 1 (1966). Thus, it has been said that
"[p]reliminary objections are certainly appropriate where a pleading
Plaintiff's complaint, at 1-11.
5
is ,.. incoherent .... "Jackson v. Richards 5 & lOInc., 289 Pa. Super. 445, 451,
433 A.2d 888, 891 (1981).
More specifically, under Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1019(a),
"[t]he material facts on which a cause of action or defense is based shall be stated
in a concise and summary form." Implicit within this rule is a requirement that the
pleading be intelligible. See Allensworth v. First Galesburg Nat? Bank & Trust
Co., 18 Ill. App. 2d 608, 152 N.E.2d 890 (1958). Where a portion ora pleading
fails to conform to the rule, it is susceptible to a preliminary objection. See Pa.
R.C.P. 1028(a)(2) (failure of pleading to conform to law or rule of court). Upon
consideration of such an objection, the court may properly strike the affected
pleading. See, e.g., Commonwealth, Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission v.
Zanella Transit, Inc., 53 Pa. Commw. 359, 417 A.2d 860 (1980).
Under Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1028(a)(2), a pleading which
is legally insufficient to set forth a cause of action is also susceptible to a
preliminary objection. Implicit within this rule as well is a requirement that the
pleading be intelligible. See Allensworth v. First Galesburg Nat'l Bank & Trust
Co., 18 Ili. App. 2d 608, 152 N.E.2d 890 (1958). Upon consideration of such an
objection, the court may properly sustain a demurrer and dismiss the pleading. Id.
In this regard, it is well settled that "[p]leadings will be construed against a pleader
on the theory that he or she has stated his or her case as best he or she can." 2
Goodrich Amram 2d 1019:7, at 249 (2001).
In the present case, a careful reading of Plaintiff's complaint indicates that
Plaintiff's claim is not stated in a concise and summary form in the sense of being
intelligible, Furthermore, as Defendant notes, the Cumberland County Bar
Association is mentioned in only one paragraph of Plaintiff's complaint
(paragraph 2). Even if it is assumed, as alleged by Plaintiff, that former President
Judge Sheely of this court is, or was, somehow an "employee" of the Bar
Association, a fair reading of the complaint does not set forth any cognizable
6
cause of action against its administration and staff. For these reasons, and based
upon the foregoing principles of law, the following order will be entered:
ORDER OF COURT
AND NOW, this 1st day of April, 2004, upon consideration of the
preliminary objections of Defendant Administration and Staff of the Cumberland
County Bar Association, and for the reasons stated in the accompanying opinion,
the preliminary objections are sustained and Plaintiff's complaint is dismissed as
to Defendant Administration and Staff of the Cumberland County Bar
Association.

JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
I, Shawn E. Smith, Esq., state the following facts with regard to service of matters in
the above case upon the Plaintiff, Mr. Cormany, are true and correct:
I am an attorney in good standing in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, an officer of this Honorable Court, and an associate of
the firm of "Phomas, 'l~homas & Hafer, LLP, in Harrisburg,
Pennsylvania.
I, along with Stephen E. Geduldig, Esq., am counsel for Defendant,
the Administration and Staff of the Cumberland County Bar
Association in the above case.
On or about January 29, 2004, Defendant Cumberland County Bar
Association filed Preliminary Objections and Briefs in support thereof
to Plaintiffs Complaint in this case.
As indicated by the Certificate of Service attached thereto, and the
filing letter sent to the Prothonotary's office dated January 29, 2004,
copies of the Preliminary Objections and Briefs in support thereof
were sent to "Cory A. Cormany, 1883 Douglas Drive, Carlisle,
Pennsylvania 17013." A true and correct copy of the letter sent to the
Prothonotary's office and sent to Plaintiff, along with the Preliminary
Objections and the Briefs in support thereof dated January 24, 2004,
is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
This address is not only the address of record for the Plaintiff in this
case, and a copy of his driver's license was attached to his Complaint
which verifies this address as being that of the Plaintiff.
Pursuant to Local Rules, on March 11, 2004, an additional copy of the
Brief in Support of Defendant Cumberland County Bar Association's
Preliminary Objections were sent to both the Court Administrator, as
well as to the Plaintiff in this case. A true and correct copy of the
letter sent to the Court Administrator and sent to Plaintiff, along with
the Preliminary Objections and the Briefs in support thereof dated
March 11, 2004, is attached hereto as Exhibit B.
As indicated by the letter dated March 11, 2004, not only was an
additional copy of the Brief sent to Mr. Cormany, but the specific date
of the argument scheduling this case, March 24, 2004, was also noted
specifically in the letter after defense counsel received that argument
date from the Court Administrator.
Thus, counsel for Defendant Cumberland County Bar Association
hereby verifies that copies of the Preliminary Objections, the Briefs in
support thereof, and the date for argument of these matters were all
sent to the Plaintiff in this case at his address of record.
I verify that the statements made in this Affidavit are true and correct. I
understand that false statements herein are made subject to the penalties of 18 Pa. C.S.

OLER, J., May 19, 2004.
For disposition in this civil case in which a pro se Plaintiff has sued various
parties, preliminary objections to Plaintiff's complaint have been filed on behalf of
Defendants Lyle Herr, Samuel Coover and Dirk Berry.1 The preliminary
objections being pursued by Defendant are in the nature of a demurrer2 and a
motion to strike for failure to plead facts in a concise and summary form in
conformity with Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1019(a),3 inter alia.4

argued before the above court en banc on February 4, 2004.7 For the reasons

DISCUSSION
As a general proposition, Pennsylvania courts are not required to entertain
submissions which are incoherent, incomprehensible or unintelligible. See, e.g.,
Commonwealth v. Albert, 522 Pa. 331, 561 A.2d 736 (1989); Commonwealth ex
tel. Swann v. Shovling, 423 Pa. 26, 233 A.2d 1 (1966). Thus, it has been said that
"[p]reliminary objections are certainly appropriate where a pleading
is... incoherent .... "Jackson v. Richards 5 & 10 Inc., 289 Pa. Super. 445, 451,
433 A.2d 888, 891 (1981).
More specifically, under Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1019(a),
"[t]he material facts on which a cause of action or defense is based shall be stated
in a concise and summary form." Implicit within this :rule is a requirement that the
pleading be intelligible. See Allensworth v. First Galesburg Nat'l Bank & Trust
Co., 18 I11. App. 2d 608, 152 N.E.2d 890 (1958). Where a portion of a pleading
fails to conform to the rule, it is susceptible to a preliminary objection. See Pa.
R.C.P. 1028(a)(2) (failure of pleading to conform to law or rule of court). Upon
consideration of such an objection, the court may properly strike the affected
pleading. See, e.g., Commonwealth, Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission v.
Zanella Transit, Inc., 53 Pa. Commw. 359, 417 A.2d 860 (1980).
~o Plaintiffs complaint, at 1-13.
6
Under Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1028(a)(2), a pleading which
is legally insufficient to set forth a cause of action is also susceptible to a
preliminary objection. Implicit within this rule as well is a requirement that the
pleading be intelligible. See Allensworth v. First Galesburg Nat'l Bank & Trust
Co., 18 Ill. App. 2d 608, 152 N.E.2d 890 (1958). Upon consideration of such an
objection, the court may properly sustain a demurrer and dismiss the pleading. Id.
In this regard, it is well settled that "[p]leadings will be construed against a pleader
on the theory that he or she has stated his or her case as best he or she can." 2
Goodrich Amram 2d 1019:7, at 249 (2001).
In the present case, a careful reading of Plaintiff's complaint indicates that
Plaintiff's claims against Defendants Herr, Coover and Berry are not stated in a
concise and summary form in the sense of being intelligible, nor can the complaint
be understood as setting forth any legally cognizable cause of action against any of
these defendants. Based upon the foregoing principles of law, the following order
will therefore be entered:
ORDER OF COURT
AND NOW, this 19th day of May, 2004, upon consideration of the
preliminary objections to Plaintiff's complaint filed on behalf of Defendants Herr,
Coover and Berry, and for the reasons stated in the accompanying opinion, it is
ordered and directed as follows:
1. The preliminary objections fi]led on January
20, 2004, are stricken as duplicative of those filed on
January 15, 2004; and
2. The preliminary objections fi]led on January
15, 2004, are sustained to the extent that they seek
dismissal of Plaintiff's complaint, and Plaintiff's
complaint is dismissed as to Defendants Herr, Coover
and Berry.
