PETITION TO OPEN AND STRIKE JUDGMENT
AND NOW comes the above-named Defendants, by their attomey, Samuel L. Andes,
and petition this court to strike or, in the alternative, to open the judgment entered against
them by confession on 14 November 2001, and aver in support of that petition, the
following:
1. The Petitioners herein are the Defendants in the original action.
2. The Respondent herein is the Plaintiff, Allfirst Bank.
3. Plaintiff confessed judgment against Defendants on 14 November 2001 by filing a
Complaint. The judgment was entered on the basis of a "Surety Ship Agreement" which
was dated 20 November 1999.
PETITION TO STRIKE
4. The "Surety Ship Agreement" was not signed by the Defendants in their
individual capacity.
5. The "Surety Ship Agreement" signed by the Defendants was signed in their
representative capacity, as chief executive officer and secretary, of the primary debtor, West
Shore Radiator Works, Inc.
6. Because the Defendant signed the "Surety Ship Agreement" in a representative
capacity, as representatives of West Shore Radiator Works, Inc., they are not personally
liable on such agreement.
7. Because the Defendant signed the "Surety Ship Agreement" as representatives of
West Shore Radiator Works, Inc., the confession of judgment warrant in the "Surety Ship
Agreement" does not authorize entry of judgment by confession against the Defendants
personally.
WHEREFORE, Defendants pray this court to strike the judgment entered against
them individually in this matter.
PETITION TO OPEN
8. The averments set forth in the foregoing paragraphs are incorporated herein by
reference.
9. At the time the par~ies signed the "Surety Ship Agreement" they did so believing
that they were signing in their representative capacity as officers of West Shore Radiator
Works, Inc.
10. When they signed the "Surety Ship Agreement" Defendants believed that they
were not creating any personal liability of their own for the debts of West Shore Radiator
Works, Inc.
11. When they signed the "Surety Ship Agreement" neither Defendant intended to
be personally obligated to pay the debts of West Shore Radiator Works, Inc.
12. The Defendants' representative capacity, on behalf of West Shore Radiator
Works, Inc., was made clear to the Plaintiff at the time that the Defendant signed the
"Surety Ship Agreement."
13. Defendants have a good and valid defense to Plaintiff's claim in this matter and
that defense includes the following:
A. They did not sign the "Surety Ship Agreement" in their individual
capacities, but only as officers and representatives of West Shore Radiator
Works, Inc.
B. They owe Allfirst Bank nothing personally and have paid all debts
owed to Allfirst Bank by the Defendants individually in strict accordance with
the terms and provisions of those debts.
C. Defendants believe that Plaintiff has erroneously and inaccurately
calculated the amount it is owed by West Shore Radiator Works, Inc. As a
result, to the extent that the Defendants have any personal obligation to the
Plaintiff on the "Surety Ship Agreement," Defendants believe that the amount
owed is significantly less than now claimed by the Plaintiff.
14. The Plaintiff has erroneously and contrary to the terms of the "Surety Ship
Agreement" and other loan documents, added attorney's fees to the interest which the
Plaintiff claims is owed by West Shore Radiator Works, Inc.
15. Defendants have acted promptly, and in accordance with the time limits set by
the Pennsylvania Rules of Procedure, to file this petition.
WI-IIgREI~Otllg, Petitioners pray this court to open the judgment entered against them
by confession to permit Defendants to enter and present a defense to Plaintiff's claim.

RE:
AIIfirst Bank vs. Claud Wheeler, et al.
No. 2001-6455
Dear Judge Guido:
I represent the Defendants in the above matter and, on their behalf, filed a
Petition to Strike Judgment entered against them by the Plaintiff, which is
represented by Eugene Pepinsky, Esquire. You entered an order setting firm dates
for us to conclude the pleadings and discovery and submit briefs and appear for
oral argument.
The parties are trying to resolve this matter themselves, without further
ligation, but they need additional time to do that. The parties, through their
counsel have agreed to extend indefinitely the litigation in this action to give us
time to do that.
I enclose a Stipulation which Gene Pepinsky and I have signed a proposed
order. If the order is satisfactory, I request that you enter that to give us additional
time to resolve this matter by agreement. If what we propose is not satisfactory
for any reason, or if you have any questions, please let Mr. Pepinsky and I know at
your convenience. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Samt Andes
