Defendants IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA No. 0 F- l `150 c CIVIL ACTION - LAW JURY TRIAL DEMANDED COMPLAINT 1. Plaintiff is Virginia M. Hostetter, an adult individual residing at 111 November Drive, Apartment 1, Camp Hill, PA 17011. 2. Defendant Harrisburg Area YMCA (hereinafter "YMCA") is a non-profit corporation organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania with offices or principal place of business located at 123 Forster Street, Harrisburg, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania. 3. Defendant Lobar Associates, Inc. (hereinafter "Lobar") is a Pennsylvania corporation with offices or principal place of business located at 4 Barlo Circle, 1 Dillsburg, York County, Pennsylvania. 4. On October 20, 2006 Plaintiff Virginia M. Hostetter was struck by a chain-link fence which was erected near the entrance to the West Shore Branch YMCA at 410 Fallowfield Road, Camp Hill, Cumberland County, PA; which fence was blown over by a gust of wind. 5. Plaintiff was thrown to the ground causing injuries including a transverse fracture of her right humerus and nerve damage in her right arm. 6. The injuries suffered by Virginia M. Hostetter were caused by the negligent erection and maintenance of the aforementioned fence as will be more fully set forth hereinafter. 7. As the result of the aforesaid injuries, Virginia M. Hostetter has undergone an extended course of medical care and treatment including inpatient and outpatient hospital care; surgeries; doctor's visits; medications; and related care and treatment, all of which have caused her to incur medical expenses for the aforesaid care and treatment. 8. As the result of the aforesaid injuries, Virginia M. Hostetter has individually endured great mental and physical pain, anguish, distress, and suffering, and will continue to endure such conditions for the remainder of her natural life. 9. As the result of the aforesaid injuries, Virginia M. Hostetter has suffered both temporary and permanent disabilities and has been prevented from attending to the normal activities of her daily life, all of which have resulted in aggravation, inconvenience, embarrassment and humiliation. 2 COUNT I NEGLIGENCE VIRGINIA M. HOSTETTER V. YMCA 10. The averments of the foregoing paragraphs 1 through 9 are incorporated herein by reference. 11. Defendant YMCA maintained control of the premises at the West Shore Branch YMCA and held said premises open to customers during a construction project which involved the erection of the aforementioned chain-link fence. 12. Plaintiff Virginia M. Hostetter was at the West Shore YMCA as a business invitee of Defendant YMCA on the aforementioned date at the time of her injury, and Defendant YMCA owed to her the highest duty to make its premises safe for her use. 13. Defendant YMCA had a contract with Defendant Lobar for the latter to perform construction at the West Shore YMCA including the erection and maintenance of the aforementioned chain-link fence. 14. Defendant Lobar erected and maintained a chain-link fence, which fence was leased by Lobar from National Construction Rentals. 15. The design, construction, maintenance and monitoring of the chain-link fence were negligently performed in the following respects: (a) The bottom of the fence was not weighted down by sandbags, concrete blocks, piles of dirt, or any other object; and (b) The fence was not secured to the adjacent building or to any object 3 permanently affixed to the ground by any means; and (c) The section of fence which struck Mrs. Hostetter was not secured at its upper corners to the adjacent sections of fence; and (d) The fence lacked any type of safety device, signs, warnings, or labels to alert pedestrians to the risk of walking adjacent to said fence in its unsecured condition; and (e) The fence was erected adjacent to the entryway to a public building, commonly used by children and the elderly; and (f) The fence was not constructed in accordance with the instructions and directions for erection of the fence provided by National Construction Rentals, the lessor of the fence. (g) The fence suffered from such other defects as may be identified through continuing investigation and discovery. 16. Defendant YMCA knew or should have known that the unsecured fence in close proximity to the entrance of the West Shore YMCA presented a substantial likelihood of injury and unreasonable risk of harm or damage to persons in the position of Virginia M. Hostetter, should have expected that such persons would not discover or realize the danger or would fail to protect themselves against it, and failed to exercise reasonable care to protect such persons against said danger. 17. The aforesaid negligence by Defendant YMCA caused the injuries and damages suffered by Virginia M. Hostetter as set forth in the foregoing paragraphs. 4 WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands judgment against YMCA for special damages, general damages, delay damages, interest, and costs of suit, in an amount which exceeds the limit of compulsory arbitration under the local rules of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. COUNT II VICARIOUS LIABILITY VIRGINIA M. HOSTETTER V. YMCA 18. The averments of the foregoing paragraphs 1 through 17 are incorporated herein by reference. 19. Defendant Lobar acted as servant, agent, representative, or employee of Defendant YMCA while performing construction at the West Shore YMCA and in erecting the aforementioned chain-link fence. 20. Defendant YMCA retained control of the worksite and the means and method of Lobar's performance of work at that site and failed to exercise that control with reasonable care to ensure the safety of people in the position of Mrs. Hostetter. 21. Defendant YMCA is vicariously liable for the actions of Defendant Lobar while performing construction at the West Shore YMCA. 22. Defendant Lobar erected and maintained the aforementioned chain-link fence in a negligent manner as set forth above. 5 23. The aforesaid negligence of Lobar, for which Defendant YMCA is vicariously liable, caused the injuries and damages suffered by Plaintiff. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands judgment against YMCA for special damages, general damages, delay damages, interest, and costs of suit, in an amount which exceeds the limit of compulsory arbitration under the local rules of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. COUNT III NEGLIGENCE VIRGINIA M. HOSTETTER V. LOBAR 24. The averments of the foregoing paragraphs 1 through 23 are incorporated herein by reference. 25. Defendant Lobar erected and maintained the fence in a negligent manner as set forth in the previous paragraphs. 26. Defendant Lobar knew or should have known that the unsecured fence in close proximity to the entrance of the West Shore YMCA presented a substantial likelihood of injury and unreasonable risk of harm or damage to persons in the position of Virginia M. Hostetter. 26. The aforesaid negligence of Lobar caused the injuries and damages 6 suffered by Plaintiff. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands judgment against Lobar Associates, Inc. for special damages, general damages, delay damages, interest, and costs of suit in an amount which exceeds the limit for compulsory arbitration under the local rules of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.

Paragraph 15(g) alleges "The fence suffered from such other defects as may be identified though continuing investigation and discovery." 7.
