DOWELL, Defendant/Respondent IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA CIVIL ACTION - LAW :No. 0 SO R CIVIL TERM : IN DIVORCE PETITION FOR SPECIAL RELIEF AND NOW, comes Petitioner, Jo E. Dowell, by and through her counsel of record, Bradley L. Griffie, Esquire and petitions the Court as follows: 1 2 3 Your Petitioner is the above named Plaintiff, Jo E. Dowell, an adult individual currently residing at 1568 Boiling Springs Road, Boiling Springs, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. Respondent is the above named Defendant, Robert E. Dowell, an adult individual currently residing at 1568 Boiling Springs Road, Boiling Springs, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. Plaintiff has filed a Complaint in Divorce requesting a divorce based upon 3301 (c) of the Divorce Code of 1980, as amended, as well as requesting equitable distribution of marital property, alimony, alimony pendente lite, counsel fees, and expenses. 4. Throughout the parties 31 year marriage, Respondent has maintained and controlled all of the parties various marital assets, including investment accounts and retirement accounts, whether in individual names or in joint names. 5. Respondent, who turned 65 years of age in May 2007, has recently indicated to Petitioner that he intends to retire from his employment. 6. Based upon documents that Petitioner has seen, she believes that Respondent has, in his name alone, certain investment accounts and retirement accounts such as 401Ks and/or IRA accounts that exceed $300,000.00 in value. 7. The only other substantial asset owned by the parties is their residence where they currently reside in Boiling Springs, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania which Petition believes has equity of less than $150,000.00. 8. In the past, Petitioner believes Respondent has retained large sums of cash in his personal possession such that it would not be accounted for through any type of financial accounts. 9. Petitioner believes and therefore avers that Respondent will liquidate assets that are available to him, transfer funds to names of third party individuals, and otherwise remove funds that are marital funds which have accrued during the parties 31 year marriage such that those funds will be placed in accounts or otherwise hidden so as to reduce the funds available for equitable distribution, or, more importantly, eliminate funds available to compensate Wife for her interest in the equitable distribution portions of this divorce action. 10. Petitioner believes and therefore avers that without court intervention, the funds will be liquidated in such a manner that Petition will not be able to receive the financial benefits to which she is entitled pursuant to the Divorce Code of 1980 as amended. 11. Petitioner does not have details of all of the funds or accounts or investments that Respondent has maintained, some of which are believed to be in Petitioner's name, and therefore she has no means to determine even the names of the companies or financial investment institutions where the funds are located. 12. Petitioner has provided a copy of this Petition along with a true and attested copy of the Complaint in Divorce in this matter by certified mail, restricted delivery to the Respondent, but proof of service has not yet been received. WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests your Honorable Court to issue a Rule upon Respondent to show cause, if any he has, as to why the parties should not be enjoined from liquidating any of their investment funds, including investment accounts, retirement accounts, 401K accounts and the like, or otherwise dissipating, transferring, selling or alienating any of their tangible or intangible personal property, as well as such other relief as the Court deems just and proper.
