ACTION IN DIVORCE
CUSTODY AGREEMENT
This Custody Agreement is made this day of , 2009, by
and between Chandra Atticks, (Hereinafter referred to ?"Mother"), of Carlisle,
Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, and John P. Atticks, IV, (Hereinafter referred to as
"Father"), of Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania;
WHEREAS, Mother and Father are the natural parents of one child, namely,
Maison Isaiah Atticks, born June 30, 2005;
WHEREAS, Mother and Father have reached an agreement relative to the future
care and custody of their child, the terms of which agreement both parties desire to set
forth in the present Agreement, and;
WHEREAS, Mother and Father desire the provisions of the present Agreement
be approved by the Honorable Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County and
entered as a Court Order, with the same force and effect as though said Order had
been entered after Petition, Notice and Hearing. There is no previous Order of Court
concerning the child.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties, intending to be legally bound, and in
consideration of the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, hereby agree
as follows:
1. Joint Legal Custody. Legal custody is the legal right to make all major non-
emergency decisions affecting a minor child's well being, including, but not limited to, all
decisions regarding his or her health, education, and religion. Mother and Father shall
have joint legal custody of their child, Maison Isaiah Afticks, born June 30, 2005.
Notwithstanding that both parents shall share legal custody, non-major decisions
involving the child's day-to-day living shall be made by the parent then having physical
custody, consistent with the other provisions of this Agreement and subsequent Order.
Pursuant to this section, the parties agree that:
A. Each party shall confer with the other on all matters of importance
including but not limited to issues relating to the child's health and education.
B. Each party agrees to keep the other informed of his or her residence and
telephone number to facilitate communication concerning the welfare of each
child and visitation period. Each party agrees to supply the name, address, and
telephone numbers of any person in whose care the child will be in for a period in
excess of forty-eight (48) hours, and for each person or entity which may provide
daycare for a child.
C. Pursuant to the terms of 23 Pa. C.S. §5309, each parent shall be entitled
to all records and information pertaining to the child, including but not limited to,
medical, dental, religious or school records, the residence address of the Child
and of the other parent. To the extent one parent has possession of such records
or information, and such information has not been provided to the other parent,
that parent shall be required to share the same, or copies thereof, with the other
parent within such reasonable time as to make the records and information of
reasonable use to the other parent.
D. Neither party shall attempt to undermine the mutual love and affection
that each child may have for the other parent and neither parent shall, in the
presence of the child make any disparaging or negative remarks concerning the
other parent.
2. Emergency Decisions. Emergency decisions regarding a child shall be
made by the parent then having physical custody of the child. However, in the event of
any emergency or serious illness of a child at any time, any party then having custody
of the child shall communicate with the other party by telephone or any other means
practicable, informing the other party of the nature of the illness or emergency, so the
other parent can become involved in the decision making process as soon as possible.
3. Physical Custody. Physical custody is defined as actual physical
possession and control of a child. Physical Custody of the child, as that term is
defined in the custody act, shall be shared by the parties.
4. Schedule of Physical Custody. The parties agree as follows regarding
physical custody:
a. Father shall have the following periods of physical custody:
From Sunday at 6:00 p.m. through Wednesday morning.
(Except for Mother's Tuesday evening visit)
Thursday after school through Friday morning.
b. Mother shall have the following periods of physical custody:
Tuesday evenings from after school until 8:00 p.m.
Wednesday after school through Thursday morning.
C. The parties shall alternate every other weekend as follows:
Friday after school through Sunday at 6:00 p.m.
d. The parties shall equally divide all major holidays, with Mother have the child
from 9:00 a.m. through 3:00 p.m. and Father to have the child from 3:00 p.m.
through 9:00 p.m. unless otherwise agreed.
e. Mother shall always have the child on Mother's Day from 9:00 a.m. through
5:00 p.m and Father shall always have the child on Father's Day from 9:00 a.m.
through 5:00 p.m.
f. For Thanksgiving, Mother shall have the child from 9:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m.
and Father shall have the child from 3:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m.
g. For Christmas Eve and Christmas, Father shall have the child from 12:00
p.m. until 6:00 p.m. on Christmas Eve. Mother shall have the child from 6:00
p.m. on Christmas Eve through 12:00 p.m. on Christmas Day. Father shall have
the child from 12:00 p.m. on Christmas Day through 8:00 p.m. on Christmas Day.
11-52P,1-11
5. Transportation and Exchange. The transportation shall be shared equally
by the parties, with the parent who is to receive custody at the time of the exchange to
provide for transportation from the residence or location of the other parent. At all
times, all children shall be secured in appropriate passenger restraints.
6. Best Interest of the Child. The parties understand that in making an order
for custody, the court shall consider the best interest of the child, which may include any
factor which impacts the child's physical, psychological, intellectual, and emotional well-
being. Such factors may include but are not limited to: the age of the child, the child's
relationship with each parent, the preference of the child, (if old enough to express a
meaningful preference), the duration, adequacy and stability of the child's current living
arrangements, the motive of each parent, the child's school and community, the
openness of each parent to allow and encourage frequent and continuing contact
between the child and the other parent, including physical access, and the capacity of
each parent to cooperate with each other and teachers or child care providers.
The parties have considered all of the above factors, and have attempted to craft
a custody agreement which provides for the best interest of the child or children. The
parties understand that while this matter could be heard by the Court, they are not
requesting a hearing or court intervention on this matter, at this time, as they have been
able to reach an agreement beneficial to the child or children, and it is in the best
interest of the child or children and the parties to resolve this matter without litigation
and with minimal conflict.
7. Binding Effect and Order. This Agreement and all of its terms and
conditions shall extend to and be binding upon the parties. The parties shall request
that this Agreement be incorporated into a Court Order without further hearing. The
parties are free to modify the terms of this Agreement and Order verbally or in writing
but in order to do so both parties must be in complete agreement to any different terms.
That means both parties must consent on what the terms of the custody arrangement
or schedule shall be.
8. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and controlled by the
laws of Pennsylvania.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have hereto duly executed the present
Stipulation and Custody Agreement the day and year first above written.

(hereinafter referred to as "Husband"), of Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania,
WITNESSETH:
and;
WHEREAS, Husband and Wife were lawfully married on September 26, 2003,
WHEREAS, there was one child born of this marriage;
WHEREAS, disputes and difficulties have arisen between the parties and it is the

settle their respective financial property rights and obligations as between each other,
including the settling of all matters between them relating to ownership and equitable
distribution of real and personal property; the settling of all matters between them
relating to the past, present, and future support, alimony, and/or maintenance of
Husband or Wife; and in general, the settling of any and all possible claims by one
against the other or against their respective estates;
NOW THEREFORE, Husband and Wife, in consideration of the mutual
promises, covenants and undertakings hereinafter set forth and for other good and
valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and each intending to
be legally bound, Husband and Wife hereby covenant and agree as follows:
1. FULL DISCLOSURE OF ASSETS. Each party warrants that he or she has
made a full and fair disclosure of income, assets, and their valuation prior to the
execution of this Agreement as well as any other fact relating to this agreement. These
disclosures are part of the consideration made by each party for entering into this
agreement. Each party agrees that he or she shall not, at any future time, raise as a
defense, or otherwise, the lack of such disclosure in any legal proceedings involving
this agreement, with the exception of disclosure that may have been fraudulently
withheld. In the event that either party, at any time hereafter, discovers such a
fraudulently undisclosed asset, that party shall have the right to petition the Court of
Common Pleas of Cumberland County to make equitable distribution of such asset.
The non-disclosing party shall be responsible for payment of counsel fees, costs, or
expenses incurred by the other party in seeking equitable distribution of such asset.
2. ADVICE OF COUNSEL. The Husband has employed and had the benefit or
counsel of JANE ADAMS, ESQUIRE, as his attorney. The Wife is PRO SE and does
not have an attorney. Each party has carefully and completely read this agreement
and has been advised and is completely aware not only of its contents but of its legal
effect. Husband and Wife acknowledge that this agreement is not a result of collusion,
improper or illegal agreements. Wife has been advised of her right to counsel,
voluntarily elected to forego representation, and understands that Jane Adams, Esquire
is only representing Husband.
3. SEPARATION. The parties intend to maintain separate and permanent
domiciles and to live apart from each other. Neither party shall harass, annoy, injure,
threaten, or interfere with the other party in any manner whatsoever. Neither party shall
interfere with the uses, ownership, enjoyment, or disposition of any property now owned
and not specified herein or property hereafter acquired by the other.
4. SUBSEQUENT DIVORCE. The parties hereby acknowledge that Husband
has filed a Complaint in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, claiming that the marriage
is irretrievably broken under the no-fault mutual consent provision of Section 3301(c) of
the Pennsylvania Divorce Code. The parties express their agreement that the marriage
is irretrievably broken and express their intent to execute any and all affidavits or other
documents necessary for the parties to obtain an absolute divorce pursuant to Section
3301(c) of the Divorce Code. The parties hereby waive all rights to request Court
Ordered counseling under the Divorce Code. The provisions of this Agreement relating
to equitable distribution of property of the parties are accepted by each party as a final
settlement for all purposes whatsoever, as contemplated by the Pennsylvania Divorce
Code.
Should a decree, judgment, or order of separation or divorce be obtained by
either of the parties in this or any other state, country or jurisdiction, each of the parties
hereby consents and agrees that this Agreement and all of its covenants shall not be
affected in any way by any such separation or divorce; and that nothing in any such
decree, judgment, order, or further modification or revision thereof shall alter, amend, or
vary any term of this Agreement, whether or not either or both of the parties shall
remarry. It is specifically agreed that a copy of this Agreement or the substance of the
provisions thereof, may be incorporated by reference into any divorce, judgment, or
decree. This incorporation shall not be regarded as a merger, it being the specific
intent of the parties to permit this Agreement to survive any judgment and to be forever
binding and conclusive upon the parties.
X CA 9.7 JA
5. DATE OF EXECUTION. The "date of execution" or "execution date" of this
agreement shall be defined as the date upon which it is executed by the parties if they
have each executed the Agreement on the same date. Otherwise, the "date of
execution" or "execution date" of this Agreement shall be defined as the date of
execution by the party last executing this Agreement. All provisions of this agreement
shall be effectuated by the parties within thirty (30) days of the execution date of this
agreement unless otherwise specified within this agreement.
6. MUTUAL RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS. Other than as provided in this
agreement, each party may dispose his or her property in any way and each party
hereby waives and relinquishes any and all rights he or she may now have or hereafter
acquire under the present or future laws of any jurisdiction to share in the property or
the estate of the other as a result of the marital relationship, including without limitation,
statutory allowance, widow's allowance, right of intestacy, right to take against the will
of the other, and right to act as administrator or executor in the other's estate. Each will
at the request of the other, execute, acknowledge, and deliver any and all instruments
which may be necessary or advisable to carry into effect this mutual waiver and
relinquishment of all such interest, rights, and claims.
7. WARRANTY OF DEBTS AND FUTURE OBLIGATIONS. Each party warrants
that they have not contracted any debt or liability for the other or which the estate of the
other party may be responsible or liable, and except only for the rights arising out of this
agreement, neither party will hereafter incur any liability whatsoever for which the other
party or the estate of the other party, will be liable. Each party agrees to indemnify or
hold harmless from the other and against all future obligations of every kind incurred by
them.
The parties agree as follows regarding the debts:

therefore agrees to completely and finally pay on the following debts and
obligations.
Any and all debts in her name alone or incurred by her after
separation.

CA ??? JA
(c) The parties will take any steps necessary to close any joint credit card
accounts.
8. EQUITABLE DIVISION OF MARITAL PROPERTY. The parties have
attempted to distribute their marital property in a manner which conforms to the criteria
set forth in the Divorce Code at 23 Pa.C.S.A. s3501 et. seq. The division of
existing marital property is not intended by the parties to constitute in any way a sale or
exchange of assets, and the division is being effected without the introduction of
outside funds or other property not constituting marital property. The division of
property under this Agreement shall be in full satisfaction of all the marital rights of the
parties.
9. BANKRUPTCY. The parties further warrant that they have not heretofore
instituted any proceedings pursuant to the bankruptcy laws nor are there any such
proceedings pending with respect to them which have been initiated by others. It is
stipulated and agreed by the parties that the terms of this Agreement as they resolve
the economic issues between the parties incidental to their divorce and the obligations
of the parties to each other resulting therefrom shall not be dischargable in bankruptcy,
should either party file for protection under the Bankruptcy Code at any time after the
date of execution of this Agreement. Should Husband or Wife pursue an action in
bankruptcy and be successful in extinguishing his or her obligation to pay any debts for
which he or she had taken sole obligation as set forth herein, he or she shall
immediately be obligated to pay alimony to the other party in an amount equal to the
monthly obligation on such debts that he or she otherwise had assumed and for which
he or she had taken sole obligation and responsibility, plus an additional fifteen percent
(15%) in consideration of the tax consequences associated with receipt of alimony.
10. OTHER PERSONAL PROPERTY. Husband and Wife do hereby
acknowledge that they have previously divided all their tangible personal property.
Except as may otherwise be provided in this Agreement, Wife agrees that all of the
property of Husband or in his possession shall be the sole and separate property of
Husband; and Husband agrees that all of the property of Wife or in her possession
shall be the sole and separate property of Wife. The parties do hereby specifically
waive, release, renounce, and forever abandon whatever claim, if any, he or she may
have with respect to the above items which shall become the sole and separate
property of the other.
11. VEHICLES. With respect to these items, owned by one or both of the
parties, they agree as follows:

make all payments on this vehicle. Upon final payment, and release of the

separate insurance policy on the vehicle. If Wife does not make required
payments on the Jeep Liberty, then Husband may take possession of said
vehicle, and keep it if he makes the payments or sell it. The parties will
equally divide any proceeds from the sale; however, if there are overdue
amounts towards pay loan payments, insurance, or repairs, Wife will be
solely responsible for those amounts.

on Amy Drive, Carlisle, Pa. Husband shall retain sole and exclusive possession
of the trailer and Wife will sign the title, a spousal waiver, Deed, or any other
document required by any entity to transfer ownership to Husband.
As of the date of this agreement, and without regard to when bills for such items
are incurred, received or due, HUSBAND shall be solely responsible for all past,
present, and future costs or liabilities associated with or attributable to maintaining the
residence (except as provided herein), including but not limited to, all real estate taxes,
water and sewer rents, gas, electric, and telephone service, homeowner's insurance,
and gardening expenses and repairs, and HUSBAND shall keep WIFE and her
successors, assigns, heirs, executors, and administrators indemnified and held
harmless from any liability, cost or expense, including attorney's fees, which are
incurred in connection with such maintenance, costs, and expense.

waive any and all rights they have in and to each other's employment benefits, including
but not limited to both parties IRA's, 401(k)'s, stock savings plans, pensions, and
retirement plans and Incentive Savings Plans. The parties agree never to assume any
claim to such benefits of the other at any time in the future.
14. ALIMONY, ALIMONY PENDENTE LITE and LEGAL FEES. Each party
hereby waives any right to spousal support, alimony, or alimony pendente lite, counsel
fees and costs, and each party agrees to be responsible for his or her own legal fees
and expenses. The parties herein acknowledge that by this Agreement, they have
respectively secured and maintained a substantial and adequate fund with which to
provide for themselves sufficient financial resources to provide for their comfort,
maintenance, and support in the station of life to which they are accustomed.
15. TAXES. The parties have previously filed joint State and Federal Tax
returns. The parties intend on filing separately from this point forward. The transfers of
property pursuant to this Agreement are transfers between Husband and Wife incident
PA-
, CA ?eJA
R
to their divorce and as such are non-taxable, with no gain or loss recognized. The
transferee's basis in the property shall be the adjusted basis of the transferor
immediately before the transfer. The transfers herein are a division of marital property
for full and adequate consideration and as such will not result in any gift tax liability.
The parties agree that the regarding any division of joint accounts, such
accounts shall be divided so that cost basis, adjusted basis, holding period, and
potential tax recapture liability of all such investments are divided equally.
16. RECONCILIATION; WAIVER OR MODIFICATION TO BE IN WRITING. No
modification or waiver of any of the terms hereof shall be valid unless in writing and
signed by both parties, and no waiver of any breach hereof or default hereunder shall
be deemed a waiver of any subsequent default of the same or similar nature.
Notwithstanding reconciliation between the parties, this agreement shall continue to
remain in full force and effect absent a writing signed by the parties stating that this
Agreement is null and void.
17. MUTUAL COOPERATION. Each party shall, at any time and from time to
time hereafter, take any and all steps and execute, acknowledge, and deliver to the
other party any and all further instruments and/or documents that the other party may
reasonably require for the purpose of giving full force and effect to the provisions of this
Agreement.

21. NO WAIVER OF DEFAULT. This Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect unless and until terminated under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
The failure of either party to insist upon strict performance of any of the provisions of
this Agreement shall in no way affect the right of such party hereafter to enforce the
same, nor shall the waiver of any default or breach of any provision hereof by construed
as a waiver of any subsequent default or breach of the same or similar nature, not shall
it be construed as a waiver or strict performance of any other obligations herein.
