received those yesterday in spite of what his employer may have indicated to Mrs. Nieves.
That being here nor there, my client would also ask that your client not have any direct
contact with him and that any contact that may be necessary should go between you and L --
What the status of the medical insurance maybe

401 (k) Plans
Q 23:34
Q 23:34 What amounts may be distributed In the case of a
participant's hardship?
Prior to attaining age 591;z, participants in a 401 (k) plan are permitted to
make in-service withdrawals only in the case of a hardship (see Qs 23:35-
23:39).
A distribution on account of hardship must be liimited to the distributable
amount. The distributable amount is equal to the employee's total elective
contributions (see Q 23:13) as of the date of distribution, reduced by the
amount of previous distributions on account of hardship. If the plan so
provides, the employee's total elective contributilons used in determining
the distributable amount may be increased by earnings thereon, and by
qualified matching contributions and qualified nonelective contributions
(see Q 23:14) used to satisfy the ADP test (see Q 23:8) and earnings thereon.
The distributable amount may include only amounts that were credited to
the employee's account as of a date specified in the plan that is no later than
December 31, 1988, or, if later, the end of the last plan year ending before
July 1, 1989. Thus, the maxirnum amount available to a participant for a
hardship withdrawal consists of the amount of a.ll such contributions and
eamings thereon as of the applicable date, plus elective contributions made
thereafter. [IRe 9 40l(k)(2)(B)(i)(IV); Treas Reg 99 1.40l(k)-l(d) (1) (ii),
1.401(k)-l(d) (2) (ii)]
If the participant does not qualify for a hardship withdrawal, the partici-
pant may be permitted to make a loan from the plan (see Qs 13:44-13:52).

Did you spend it after you received this Court
Do you notice the Court Order was a lot later than
My question is, did you spend any of that money
after you received the Court Order?
A Just for rent and so forth, yes. I am unemployed
and I have to pay bills and rent.
Q How much of that money do you have left right now?
A Roughly around $2,000.
Q Where is it, a bank account?
A Yes, part of it is in the savings, roughly 900 in

Q You said you were unemployed?
A That is correct.
Q Are you currently under a doctor's care?
A
I have been.
I don't have any insurance any more,
so I have not been to the doctor. As a matter of fact, I am a
diabetic, and I have been taking my medication every -- like
every three days, so that it will last until I am able to find
employment and get insurance.
Q Is diabetes your only major problem?
A And anxiety, depression right now, yes.
Q You are taking medication for that?
A Yes, I am.
Q What about you talked about your medical insurance,
do you have any medical insurance coverage for your wife?
When I lost my job I lost that also.
I have tried
A
to get insurance on her. As a matter of fact, she knows about
it, because I have the packet here where I bought a plan. When
I got it, it was not what I bought, so I called them and they
said I needed to send a letter to whatever -- to this company
to get my money back.
I discussed that with her, she knows about it. You
and I also talked as a matter of fact a couple of days ago. I

with you.
I was trying to work this out
If you notice, I don't have an attorney, I cannot
afford an attorney. He needed $3,000 to represent me and I
just cannot do that.
Q My question for the Court is she doesn't have
health insurance today?
A That is correct.
Q Do you have any pendincr unemployment cases going?
A Yes, I have unemployment, I applied for
unemployment and, of course, it has been denied. I have a
hearing next week in Career Link for that unemployment.
Q There was also discussion at your support
conference about a union grievance of your last job. What is
the status of that?
A When I met with the uni.on rep, he told me that
there was really not a chance at all of me getting my job back.
MR. RUTH: I will open him up for him to testify,
whatever he wants to say, Your Honor.
THE COURT: Did you want to testify to anything as
a result of the questions of Mr. Ruth?
A Your Honor, I would like to, yes, make some
statements. I don't know much about court proceedings, Your
Honor, so there is a lot of other things that is involved here.
I would think that I have a right to defend myself.

1 My wife, when she left, of course, she left in the
2 middle of the night while I was at work and took a lot of the
3 furnishings, took the one car.
4 According to her, I don't know what to believe or
5 not, she has sold the car, that car was also my property too.
6 I just handed evidently, she is not really destitute because
7 she does have an attorney, she is being represented, so she can
8 afford that.
9 She does -- we have talked this week, she said she
10 wanted to be friends. I said that is fine. But my wife is not
11 destitute, Your Honor, and the COUl:t should know that.
12 She has really done a lot of improper things with
13 me. She has comrni tted adultery, and that was actually going on
14 in our home while we were still living in the home. As a
15 matter of fact, she is driving a car with a man she has been
16 seeing. She has a cell phone. We could never afford a cell
17 phone before.
18 I know where it is com:lng from. I know who the
19 cell phone belongs to. I really truly thought that we could
20 work this out as far as the property and so forth. I am
21 willing to give her anything so we can end this, put this
22 behind us, because right now I cannot function properly.
23 The reason why I lost my job was because of the
24 time that I missed work because I was not -- I operate a tow
25 motor and that was not a safe -- the way I was, it was not safe

for me to work and I did lose my job, yes. But that came from
what she had done to me.
I don't know why it has taken so long to get this
divorce. I am willing to work with Mr. Ruth and my wife to get
this out of the way. I don't know what else to say, Your
Honor.
I can't sleep, I can't do anything. I am under
this medication, I don't know if it does me any good or not.
My wife is also taking the same medication according to her. I
would like to work this out. I would like to put an end to
this situation. I am willing to do anything I can within my
means.
BY THE COURT:
Q Where are you living now?
A I live right outside on the other side of Mount
Holly Springs, right in Cumberland County, inside the Adams
County line.
Q Is it 501 Oxford Road?
A Yes, sir.
Q In Gardners, Pennsylvania?
A Yes, sir.
Q The zip code is l7324?
A Yes, sir.
Q What assets does the marriage have, in other words,
what property do you own, what property does your wife own?
10
1 A I rent the place, Your Honor, the only thing we
2 have is just everyday things, furniture. I don't have to live
3 on furniture, and the other stuff, the one bedroom that she
4 took. As a matter of fact, Your Honor, this has been going on
5 for quite awhile.
6 Then it dawned on me that we had a storage that was
7 completely full and the key mysteriously disappeared and I
8 couldn't find it. So I got another one for the storage, that
9 disappeared. When she left, I went to storage, I was paying
10 the storage, paying $68.90 a month.
11 The storage was completely, completely empty,
12 except for the mess that was left for me to clean up. So as
13 far as property, we have to sit down. There has got to be some
14 way to do it.
15 Like I said, she took the one car, that car was
16 bought when we were married.

Q The Patriot Credit Union, where is that located?
A That is in Chambersburq.
Q How much money is in that account?
A There was 830 in the savings account.
Q Is that in your name alone?
A Yes, sir.
Q You don't know the account number, do you?
A No, sir, I do not.
Q Do you have any other checkinq or savinqs account?
A Just checkinq, Your Honor.
Q Where is that located?

Q Is that an individual account?
A Yes, sir.
Q In your name?
A Yes, sir.
Q How much is in checkinq?
A Rouqhly about $580.
Q You say in the middle of April, did you withdraw
all of your 40lK money?
A Yes, sir, my wife and I, I borrowed from it twice.
After taxes and everythinq that was taken out, that was the
amount that was qiven to me.

Q What is that amount again?
A $6,111.25.
Q You say that in about a period of a month you spent
almost all of it?
A No, sir. I borrowed a thousand dollars from my
church, and I paid them back out of that. With rent and
utility bills, oil was very expensive, I spent quite a bit of
it, yes.
Q Apparently you spent all but about $1400?
A Sorry?
Q You spent all but $1400?
A Well, there was about $1700 actually, something
like that, I am not quite sure, Your Honor. But I just want to
get this over with. I need to cont:inue on with my life.
Q The problem is you seem to have spent almost all
the assets that were in the marriage.
A I understand that, Your Honor. We also have a loan
that my wife signed also, so that is about $10,000.
Q Did you pay any of that off with the $6,000?
A No, just, you know, I am on that right now. As a
matter of fact, I need to do something about that. I don't
know how I am going to right now, to put an end to this, I
would like to sit down with her and give you up whatever it is
allowed and continue on with my life.

days and we will put an end to this and that hasn't happened,
and I don't know why.
Q One reason is there is no money left. You have
taken all the money from the marriage and spent it.
A Well, Your Honor, she also took the car on her own,
just decided to leave and take a bunch of stuff from the house.
That wasn't proper either.
Q What kind of car was it?
A It was a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Q Okay. How much do you think that was worth?
A When I checked with the Blue Book it was worth
roughly 43, $4400.
Q There was no money owed on it, it was paid off?
A Yes.
Q Are there any other vehicles?
A Well, I have a 1990 Isuzu Trooper.
Q Is that owned free and clear?
A Yes, sir.
Q Is that in your name?
A Yes, sir. I had that before we were married.
Q How much do you think that is worth?
A Pardon me?
Q How much do you think that is worth?
A The Blue Book, it is not even a thousand dollars.
Q Are there any other assets that you have, any cash

sitting around the house, any stocks, bonds?
A No, sir.
Q No other personal property?
A No, sir. I am afraid that I am going to have to
lose my house, lose my home, and I don't know where I am going
to go. I applied to a number of places, and I am waiting for
calls from them. I am going to have to go with a temp agency
to be able to work. Of course, they don't give you health
insurance with that, until I can find a permanent job.
THE COURT: Okay, Mr. Ruth.
MR. RUTH: Briefly, Your Honor.
BY MR. RUTH:
Q For that 1996 Trooper, didn't you transfer that to
your wife during the marriage when you went to jail?
A No, I did not. I don't remember that. If I did, I
don't remember it. That still is my car, I had it before we
got married.
Q Did you cash in or liquidate any guns?
A Two guns I sold, yes.
Q How much money did you get?
A I don't remember, it was like $1400, $1200. That
was a long time ago.
Q That was during this d:lvorce though, wasn't it?
A No, no, no.

your home?

Yes, correct.
How much is your security deposit?
$550.
So that is the only money you have exposed in your
rent, right? As an asset, not rent, the only money you have
out in the home is a security deposit?
A Correct.
Q How is it that an 11-year-old Jeep Cherokee is
worth 4300, but an 8-year-old Isuzu Trooper, which are both
sport utility vehicles, is only worth a thousand, how is that?
A The trooper is 1990.
Q '90.
A '90.
MR. RUTH: I have nothing further, Your Honor.
THE COURT: Any furthel: testimony, Mr. Nieves, that
you wanted to give as a result of those questions?
A Please excuse me, Your Honor. I don't know the --
I don't know why we are here. We could have taken care of this
without coming to court. I want this resolved, and I will give

her anything she wants to put an end to this.
THE COURT: What do you have to give?
A I don't, that is the thing, I don't. If you look
at it that way that she sold the jeep, it was bought during our
marriage. Right now I am stuck with a $10,000 loan which she
would be liable for 5,000 of it, plus the jeep that she sold,
plus the stuff that she took from the house, whatever, the
storage. She took a lot of my military mementoes from Korea,
Germany. All kind of stuff, she just took everything.
THE COURT: Okay.
MR. RUTH: I have one more question based on that.
THE COURT: All right.
BY MR. RUTH:
Q Have you met with a bankruptcy attorney recently?
A Yes, I am thinking of filing for bankruptcy.
Q That would take care of that loan, wouldn't it?
A Yes, but it is quite a bit of awhile, that will
take awhile.
Q Did you know that if you had not cashed your 401K
and filed bankruptcy, you could have saved all your 401k from
bankruptcy?
A No. I do not know whel:e that is going to take me,
or be done because of the money it caused.
THE COURT: You may step down, thank you.
MR. RUTH: At this time, Your Honor, since I know

you have limited time, I wanted to move for the admission of
that check. I also have, before I came up here, an Affidavit
of Service of a notice to attend and produce documents which
included service of the Court Order. I didn't know if the
prothonotary served it. It seemed like they did, but I wanted
to make sure it was served independently. So even though this
is a copy, I am pretty sure you don't have it in your file
because I just did it a couple minutes before.
THE COURT: I see. Mr. Nieves, is there any
objection to the admission of Plaintiff's Exhibit 1, which is
that copy of the check?
MR. NIEVES: No, Your Honor.
THE COURT: All right, Plaintiff's Exhibit 1 is
admitted. Mr. Ruth.
MR. RUTH: At this time, Your Honor, since your
court time is valuable, I would make an offer of proof that she
wouldn't really add much more that would be beyond cumulative
of this was the principal asset, there really isn't anything
else. I view him in contempt for admittedly spending it
afterwards, and I would ask for constructive trust for what is
left or at least leave to come back to do some discovery to
figure out where that money really went and file a petition for
contempt later.
THE COURT:
MR. RUTH:
Are you concluding your case?
I am giving you an offer of proof.

you would like, I would put her on the stand. I don't know
your time constraints. I don't thi.nk she would add much more,
because the principal thing we were fighting about was the 401K
existence and the amount that she has testified to and that it
is mostly gone and medical insurance which he admitted he
doesn't have. That is really the narrow focus of this hearing.
I give you an offer of proof that she would say more or less
the same things that he would say, she would dispute some of
the values, but I don't think that has any great value to you.
If you want it, I will put her on.
THE COURT: I can't be in a position to tell you
how to present your case. An offer of proof is generally made
when the other side objects to the witness being called at all.
If you want to call her and have her verify the contents of the
petition, that is certainly acceptable.
MR. RUTH: I would like to call Roma Nieves.
THE COURT: All right.
ROMA L. NIEVES,

Q How old are you, ma'am?
A 52.
Q What is your occupation?
A I am unemployed. I have health problems.
Q Tell the Court the assets of the marriage briefly?
A The assets of the marriage.
Q That existed at separation.
A Well, we had the 401K, we had the two rifles. We
had a living room suit, one bedroonl suit, one bedroom suit was
given to me. Most everything we had I had before we were
married. He gave away my antique dining room suit, so I don't
have that, and he bought another one and he has that. We had
the two cars. Most everything we have I had before we were
married. We had the rifles. I don't know what else.
Q So the 401K was the principal asset?
A Yes, the 401K and the t.wo rifles. They were valued
at a thousand dollars each.
Q Was there any other liquid money laying around?
A I don't know, I haven't had access or been able to
see any money since July 11 of last year.
Q Have you received any support money lately?
A I haven't received support since March 30 I think,
but he did give me a hundred dollars.
Thursday.

Q Talk about your health insurance, do you have
health insurance?
A No, I don't.
Q Was it ordered in the support as part of your
support case?
A Yes, it was.
Q Do you have unpaid medical bills at this point?
A Yes, I do.
Q How much are they roughly?
A Roughly, I think my doctor is 300. I owe like, it
is like 300 and some to the hospital. I think that is about
it, because I really haven't been going to the doctor like I
should.

Q This Jeep Cherokee, what was it worth?
A I don't know what it was worth, I borrowed $3,000,
that is what I sold it for. The man that has it had to pay
over $700 to have the door repaired. He put insurance on it
and everything.
Q What about this 1990 trooper that your husband
drives, what is that worth?
A I don't know, I don't have any idea.
Q Was it ever transferred to you during the marriage?
A Yes, it was. When we got married, he was getting
ready to go to jail for his third DUI. He transferred to me so
I could put insurance so his sister could transport him from
the jail to work and back to jail again, he couldn't get
insurance.
Q Does your husband still drink?
A He says no, but his sister said yes.
Q What do you think?
A I think yes.
Q Have you filed for any public assistance benefits?
A I haven't yet but I plan on doing that today while
I am in town. I was concerned about filing and then getting,
you know, half of the 401K, whether I would be held for fraud
or something, so I didn't do it.
Q Do you have anything else you want to tell the
Court?
22
1 A Just that basically the reason I left was total
2 abuse. I had surgery in December of 2002, got home from the
3 hospital on Christmas day and had to cook Christmas dinner if I
4 was hungry and I was, so I had to cook Christmas dinner. I was
5 never allowed to recuperate because I had to have back surgery
6 because I have a herniated disk in my back where they opened me
7 up for my lung surgery.
8 He didn't stay for my surgery and he didn't even
9 bring me home from the hospital. He visited long enough to
10 bring me a soda and a hamburger and he drank while I was in the
11 hospital. The day I got -- he didn't go to work the day I got
12 home. But he also told me that he would lose his job if I
13 continued with Domestic Relations.
14 The furniture that I took when I left was mine. It
15 is like I said, I had just about everything. Most everything
16 in the storage, I think what he moved from his apartment when
17 we got married, he had like three car loads of stuff, and that
18 included a refrigerator that he gave away, everything else I
19 had before we were married.
20 I didn't steal anything. I am trying to be honest,
21 and I was trying to work with him. I went over on Thursday to
22 try to work with him. All he wanted to do was insist that I
23 come back to him. He did give me a hundred dollars cash.
24 I told him that he had to remember that his
25 attorney and the judge at the Domestic Relations said anything

he gave me cash was a gift, but I would report it, and I have.
I have tried to be honest and open with him. He
has always been secretive and behind my back the whole
marriage. Everything had to be locked away and kept away from
me. The guns he just told me he sold to a dealer for $1500. I
told him that they were marital assets. As a matter of fact,
when he got the guns
he won them gambling -- he had to do
the background check on me to get the guns because he couldn't
do it on him because he was still on probation.
I told him that I really didn't think it was fair
for him to get rid of the guns, if anything happened, it would
come back on me. I wouldn't take anything that didn't belong
to me. I even left him plenty of stuff that did.
I am not trying to rip him off. I just feel every
penny I had when we were married had to go to him. He
controlled the money. To ask for $3,000 or half of the 401K, I
don't feel that is unfair.
As far as my being an adulteress in our home, no,
that is not true. It is not true.
THE COURT: Okay. Are all of the facts in your
petition true and correct?
A Yes, they are.
THE COURT: Okay. Mr. Ruth.
MR. RUTH: That is all I have, Your Honor.

which you have not, you were also told that you --
THE COURT: You can ask questions, but you are
really making a statement.
BY MR. NIEVES:
Q Do you remember what else on Monday with the
hundred dollars, what else I gave you, what else I bought for
you?
A Two packs of cigarettes.
Q You had cancer, you were in the hospital with lung
cancer, is that correct?
A Yes.
Q But you still smoke?
A Because you kept smoking in front of me and blowing
smoke in my face and I decided, what is the difference.
Q Did you also tell me Monday that you think you have
colon cancer?
A No, I said they are checking, they are checking,
they keep checking me for cancer. But I can't do anything, I
don't have any insurance. I can't keep running up bills.
Q You can also -- what, you had cancer, why haven't

where he would probably have to disqualify himself as her
I don't know how this is relevant to go
attorney.
BY MR. NIEVES:
Q You are getting inheritance in the near future,
correct?
A You told me, I don't know if I am or not. The only
reason I knew is because you went to the courthouse and you
checked it out.
Q It is a public record
A I haven't checked it.
Q There is $72,000 on your dad's estate and it is
back -- so divide that by eight children --
THE COURT: Wait. I am getting all confused. What
question do you have for her?
BY MR. NIEVES:
Q You know you have inheritance coming?
A Only because you told me.
MR. NIEVES: Your Honor, I don't have anything
more.

MR. RUTH: I don't have anything further, Your
Honor. You can dismiss her if you want, unless you have any
questions for her.
THE COURT: You may step down, thank you.
MR. RUTH: The only thing I have to close my
case-in-chief is to hand up certified copies of the June 7
modification conference and the tryer of fact because it is
relevant to the health insurance issued.
THE COURT:
MR. RUTH:
Do you want, those marked as exhibits?
Yes, please. You already have a copy,
but I will show them to you anyway.
MR. NIEVES: Your Honor. I did talk to Mr. Ruth
and there is -- I can get the same coverage direct 250 some
dollars a month.
THE COURT: Can you?
MR. NIEVES: Yes, and I can do that. I have
discussed that with him and I will do that and certainly catch
up with her support. But I want this to again, I would like
to put an end to this. We are not going to be able to
reconcile or anything. We more or less already disposed of
everything except...
MR. RUTH: She is going to mark this as an exhibit,
this is the support. You have seen this before.
MR. NIEVES: Yes.
27
1 MR. RUTH: Do you care?
2 MR. NIEVES: No.
3 MR. RUTH: I imagine you want these, Your Honor.
4 THE COURT: We have to identify them on the record,
5 and then I will ask Mr. Nieves if there is any objection to
6 their admission. What is Plaintiff's Exhibit 2?
7 MR. RUTH: Exhibit 2 iE: Judge Edward E. Guido's
8 order of June 7, 2004, in Domestic Relations, No. 20 S 2004.
9 THE COURT: Okay, that is a support order for
10 spousal support?
11 MR. RUTH: That is correct, Your Honor. Actually,
12 it is an order denying a modification filed by Mr. Nieves, but,
13 yes, it is a support order.
14 THE COURT: What is Plaintiff's Exhibit 3?
15 MR. RUTH: Plaintiff's Exhibit No.3 is the summary
16 of the tryer of fact in the same case dated June 7, 2004, on
17 the actual modification conference.
18 (Plaintiff's Exhibit No.2 marked for
19 identification.)
20 (Plaintiff's Exhibit No.3 marked for

22 THE COURT: All right. Mr. Nieves, do you have any
23 objection to the admission of those two items?

you want to present beyond what you have already said?
MR. NIEVES: Just that, Your Honor --
THE COURT: If you do, then you would come forward
and been sworn as your own witness.
ABRAHAM NIE~VES,
having been duly sworn, testified as follows:
EXAMINATION
BY THE COURT:
Q Again, for the record, would you state your full
name and your address.
A My name is Abraham Nieves, 501 Oxford Road,
Gardners, Pennsylvania, 17324.
Q Okay, thank you.
A In the past, I have done -- I was arrested for DUI,
but I did pay my fine and did my time to the Commonwealth. I
am now a Born Again Christian, I go to church. As a matter of
fact, I go to church at least twice a week, so I am no longer
into that mode. It is unhealthy to me and I am getting older
and my health is failing. I do not drink. I am, again, going
to church quite often.
That is the only statenent I have to make, because

THE COURT: All right, Mr. Ruth, do you have any
questions?
MR. RUTH:
THE COURT:
MR. NIEVES:
THE COURT:
Nothing further, Your Honor.
You may step down, thank you.
Thank you, Your Honor.
If there is no further evidence to be
presented, I will be glad to entertain brief arguments by
Mr. Ruth and Mr. Nieves. Mr. Ruth, what are you requesting?
MR. RUTH: Well, I am requesting that the
injunction -- that he not spend the rest of whatever is left.
I don't know if you are open to ent.ertaining a contempt from
his admission or not. I don't kno"r how to get that money back
after he spent it. I would like to have an instructive trust
of what is left; and I would like to have, if you are not going
to hold him in contempt
THE COURT: Wait, I don't have a contempt petition
in front of me. I don't think it would be quite fair to Mr.
Nieves to be adjudicated in contempt at this point.
MR. RUTH: I would like to preserve that issue and
do some discovery and figure out when he spent the money and on
what dates and what amount, how much.
I certainly think that -- I don't know what your
records show -- but I got the order, I got the order within two
30
1 or three days of it being mailed to me on April 28. I mailed
2 another copy according to the affidavit on May 4.
3 So I am pretty sure that he spent a significant
4 portion of it in May, after he had received the court order, so
5 I would like to preserve what is left and to make or
6 whatever is left, that he use that to buy health insurance for
7 his wife, which is part of the dual relief of the petition.
8 Freeze what is left and order him to use what is left for
9 health insurance. Thank you, Your Honor.
10 THE COURT: Okay, thank you. Mr. Nieves, is there
11 anything you would like to argue at this point?
12 MR. NIEVES: Your Honor, I have spoken to Mr. Ruth,
13 and I made a statement to the Court that I have found where I
14 can buy her insurance through Etna, the same insurance she had.
15 I have no insurance, I can't afford to get it.
16 I do have some money outstanding where I bought a
17 plan for her, but it was not what I would -- what I was sold
18 was not what I got, for lack of a better word, Your Honor.
19 THE COURT: Are you saying that you could buy
20 insurance that will cover a preexisting condition?
21 MR. NIEVES: Yes, I can go back to -- I already
22 checked with Etna, and it is going to cost me money, 200 and
23 some dollars. I can only do that for a certain amount of time,
24 and I can use that money for that.
25 I tried to get them to talk to me and say here is
31
1 what I will do, I will pay her whatever money I will use for
2 her. I will pay her support, I can catch up. I was going to
3 offer her one month -- my arrears right now is $1,046, Your
4 Honor.
5 But I will get her insurance and I will use that
6 money towards it. Like I said, I plan to be employed within
7 the next two weeks. Some nice companies that I am waiting for
8 them to call me, but I am going to (JO to a temp agency to
9 survive, of course, and be able to pay her.
10 I don't want it to go on too long now. If she did
11 file for divorce, I want that to happen. But I will catch up
12 to that and I will use that money for her support and for her
13 insurance.
14 THE COURT: This Etna policy, is that a Cobra
15 policy--
16 MR. NIEVES: No, sir, Cobra, they wanted a thousand
17 dollars a month, Cobra did, it is very expensive. The Etna is
18 exactly what she had, an HMO that covers everything, but no
19 co-payment, except for medications. But I will get her that.
20 I will use the rest of the money of course, I could
21 probably come up, I don't know, there is something that I have
22 to realize and do where if I start working again, which I will
23 shortly. I will be able to maintain her until whatever
24 property settlement, whatever we do as far as the divorce is
25 concerned.
32
1 THE COURT: Okay, Mr. Ruth, are you satisfied with
2 the so-called Etna policy?
3 MR. RUTH: I haven't seen it. We have a vehicle to
4 control that because we will have to satisfy the support order;
5 but, yes, we would accept that.
6 THE COURT: I don't see how a policy that you would
7 buy today would be covering lung cancer and things that have
8 happened in the past.
9 MR. RUTH: I don't think so either, if we can't get
10 insurance, then we are going to have the issue of un-reimbursed
11 medicals being split according to their percentage that was
12 determined in support court. That is going to be a lot of
13 money, that is why we were trying to prevent this before it
14 happened. He removed it as soon as they separated. Had he not
15 removed it, we wouldn't be here. Whether he lost his job or
16 not, that would have postponed it, but she would have had her
17 past couple months of medical bills covered as opposed to not
18 being covered. We will take whatever we can get.

20 MR. RUTH: I want you t:o order him to buy the
21 insurance and to use --
22 THE COURT: What insurance? The Etna insurance?
23 MR. RUTH: The Etna insurance to cover her, yes. I
