CIVIL ACTION - LAW
R. F. FAGER COMPANY
No. 04-357- Civil
VS.
HOFFMAN MECHANICAL, INC.
PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS TO COMPLAINT
AND NOW comes the Defendant, Hoffman Mechanical, Inc., by and
through its attorneys, Reidenbach, Henderson & Pecht, who file
Preliminary Objections to Plaintiff's Complaint as follows:
1. Paragraph 11 of Plaintiff's Complaint sets forth that the
"terms and conditions of sale contained on the credit application which
terms and conditions were agreed to by Plaintiff and Defendant ... .
2. Plaintiff is in part basing its right to pursue the litigation
on the existence of the credit application which terms and conditions
were allegedly agreed to by Defendant.
3. Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1019(i) sets forth that
when any claim or defense is based upon a writing the pleader shall
attach a copy of the writing.
4. Although monthly statements are attached to Plaintiff's
Complaint, the actual basis for the Complaint., the credit application
specifying the terms and conditions agreed to by Plaintiff and Defendant,
is not, nor is alleged to be an oral agreement.
5. Inasmuch as Plaintiff's Complaint fails to attach the credit
application, Plaintiff's Complaint is in violation of Pennsylvania Rule
1
of Civil Procedure 1019(1).
6. Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 1028(a)(2) allows for a
Complaint to be stricken for failure of the pleading to conform to a rule
or law of court.
7. As a result of Plaintiff failing to comply with Pennsylvania
Rule of Civil Procedure 1019(i) in failing to attach a copy of the credit
application upon which Plaintiff relies in justifying its cause of action
in general and specifically its entitlement of a finance charge of 1.50
per month, Plaintiff's Complaint violates the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil
Procedure and should be stricken.
WHEREFORE, Defendant, Hoffman Mechanical, Inc., prays that this
Honorable Court grants its Preliminary Objections and dismiss Plaintiff's
Complaint with prejudice or, in the alternative, direct Plaintiff to file
a Complaint in compliance with the Rules of Civil Procedure.
Respectfully submitted,

IN THE COURT OF COMMON CP VILS ACT ON BERILAA?ND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA
R. F. FAGER COMPANY
Plaintiff
Vs.
No. 04-357
HOFFMAN MECHANICAL, INC.
Defendant
ANSWER TO AMENDED COMPLAINT
AND NOW comes Defendant, Hoffman Mechanical, Inc., by and
through its attorneys, Reidenbach, Henderson & Pecht, who files
this Answer to Plaintiff's Amended Complaint as follows:
1. Admitted.
2. Admitted.
3. Admitted.
4. Admitted.
5. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that
various products, goods, supplies and materials (hereinafter
collectively referred to as "products") were ordered by Defendant
from Plaintiff. It is denied, however, that without Plaintiff_
attaching the purported invoices which are allegedly too numerous
to be attached to the Complaint, that all products and services are
represented by invoices. Strict proof otherwise is hereby demanded
at the time of trial.
6. Denied. Again, without having the opportunity to review
the invoices in whole, Defendant is unable to ascertain whether the
1
prices charged for the products sold to the Defendant were the
fair, reasonable and market prices of the products nor car,
Defendant indicate that they were the prices Defendant agreed to
pay. Strict proof otherwise is hereby demanded at the time of
trial.
7. Denied. It is denied that the invoices represent
products sold by Plaintiff and purchased by Defendant pursuant to
"Defendant's account with Plaintiff". Strict proof otherwise is
hereby demanded at the time of trial.
8. Denied. For the reasons set forth previously, and
inasmuch as Defendant has not yet had the opportunity to review all
of the invoices which are purportedly the subject matter of this
litigation, Defendant does not know or have information available
to it to determine whether or not it has objected to any of the
invcices and accepted the products. It is also denied that
Plaintiff could suffer all. damages as complained. Strict proof
otherwise is hereby demanded at the time of trial.
9. Denied. Defendant is unable to ascertain, even with
reasonable investigation, whether Plaintiff has, at this time, or
at any time, maintained a statement of account keeping an accurate
and running amount of debts and credits for the sale of the
