Morris, II, individually, and Crystal L. Morris, individually and as the Administratrix of the Estate of Chelsey L. Morris, deceased, by and through their counsel, Skarlatos & Zonarich LI~P, to petition this Honorable Court for settlement of wrongful death and survival actions pursuant to Pennsylvania Rule of Civil Procedure 2206, and in support thereof, respectfully represent: 1. Petitioners, David H. Morris, II and Crystal L. Morris, are the parents and natural guardians of the decedent who was nineteen (19) year old at the time of her passing. 2. On March 25, 2004, Petitioner David H. Morris, II renounced his right to administer the estate and requested that Letters be issued to Petitioner Crystal L. Morris. A copy of the Renunciation is attached as Exhibit "1". -1- 3. Petitioner Crystal L. Morris was appointed the Administratrix of the Estate of Chelsey L. Morris, Deceased, on March 25, 2004, by the Register of Wills of Cumberland County. A copy of the Certificate of Grant of Letters of Administration is attached as Exhibit 4. On November 21, 2003, the decedent was involved in a fatal automobile accident on State Route 81, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania and was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident by Cumberland County Coroner Michael L. Norris. A certificate of death is attached hereto as Exhibit "3". 5. The decedent died intestate. 6. On or around March 18, 2004, Petitioners engaged the services of Skarlatos & Zonarich LI~P to open an estate and resolve issues surrounding the death of the decedent. 7. The name, relationship, address and share of each beneficiary that is entitled to share in the proceeds of the survivorship claim is as follows: Relationship Fractional Share Name to Decedent Address to which Entitled David H. Morris, II Father 505 West Perry Street ½ Enola, Pennsylvania 17025 Crystal L. Morris Mother 505 West Perry Street ½ Enola, Pennsylvania 17025 -2- 8. The name, relationship, address and share of each person entitled to share in the proceeds of the wrongful death claim is as follows: Relationship Fractional Share Name to Decedent Address to which Entitled David H. Morris, II Father 505 West Perry Street ½ Enola, Pennsylvania 17025 Crystal L. Morris Mother 505 West Perry Street ½ Enola, Pennsylvania 17025 9. Petitioners have entered into an agreement with the Petitioners' automobile insurance carrier, State Farm, to settle the survival and wrongful death claims, subject to this court's approval pursuant to 20 Pa.C.S.A. {}3323. 10. The proposed settlement is for the uninsured policy limits of Petitioners' automobile insurance. 11. The total amount of the proposed settlement is forty-five thousand dollars ($45,000.00). The terms of the proposed settlement state that ninety percent (90%) of the settlement would be apportioned to the wrongful death claim and the remaining ten percent (10%) of the settlement would be apportioned to the survivorship claim. 12. Petitioners concur in the proposed settlement distribution and desire that the gross settlement be allocated in the amount of forty thousand five hundred dollars ($40,500.00 (90%)) -3- to plaintiff's decedent's statutory beneficiaries as "wrongful death" damages and four thousand five hundred dollars ($4,500.00 (10%)) to plaintiff's decedent's estate as "survival" damages. 13. Attached hereto as Exhibit "4" is a letter from the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue authorizing the apportionment of damages of ninety percent (90%) to the wrongful death claim and the remaining ten percent (10%) to the survivorship claim. 14. Because the decedent was under the age of twenty-one (21) and the transfer of property herein is from the decedent to her natural parents, there is no inheritance tax pursuant to 72 P.S. §9116(a)(1.2). 15. The sum of four thousand five hundred dollars ($4,500.00) is sufficient to protect the estate, the interests of the beneficiaries named in paragraph seven above, the lienholders, other creditors and the taxing authorities. 16. The fees and expenses incurred by Skarlatos & Zonarich LI~P on behalf of the Petitioners are being paid by Petitioners on an hourly basis and are therefore not claimed herein. 17. Due to the uncertainties of litigation, the proposed compromise is in the best interests of the Estate. -4- 18. All of those parties named in paragraphs seven and eight believe that the proposed allocation is fair and reasonable and their consent is attached as Exhibit "5". 19. If this petition is granted, the settlement proceeds will be distributed as follows: SURVIVAL CLAIM (a) To the Estate of Chelsey L. Morris, the sum of four thousand five hundred dollars ($4,500.00) to be divided as follows: (1) ½ to David H. Morris, II; and, (2) ½ to Crystal L. Morris. II. WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM (a) To the statutory beneficiaries of Chelsey L. Morris, the sum of forty thousand five hundred dollars ($40,500.00) to be divided as follows: (1) $20,250.00 to David H. Morris, II; and, (2) $20,250.00 to Crystal L. Morris. 20. Petitioners retained Skarlatos & Zonarich I~I~P as counsel to open an estate, investigate the case and take appropriate steps to prosecute the survival and wrongful death actions. Petitioners and counsel recommend the proposed distribution as set forth above. The statement of John B. Zonarich, Esquire, for Skarlatos & Zonarich I~I~P, is attached as Exhibit "6". -5- WHEREFORE, Petitioners request that an order be entered approving the proposed settlement of the wrongful death and survivorship actions, and authorizing the Administratrix to execute all necessary releases, endorse all checks and to make appropriate distribution.

It was forwarded to this Bureau for the Commonwealth's approval of the allocation of the proceeds paid to settle the actions. Pursuant to the Petition, the 19-year-old-decedent died as a result of a motor vehicle accident. The heirs to the decedent's estate are her parents. Therefore, any proceeds paid to settle the survival action would pass to the decedent's parents and would be subject to a zero percent inheritance tax rate. 72 P.S. §9116(a)(1.2). Accordingly, regardless of the allocation of the subject proceeds, there would be no inheritance tax consequences. Please be advised that based upon these facts and for inheritance tax purposes only, this Department has no objection to the proposed allocation of the gross proceeds of this action, $ 40,500.00 to the wrongful death claim and $ 4,500.00 to the survival claim. Proceeds of a survival action are an asset included in the decedent's estate and, although subject to the imposition of a zero percent inheritance tax rate in this instance, they must be reported on decedent's Pennsylvania inheritance tax return. 42 Pa.C.S.A. §8302; 72 P.S. §§9106, 9107. Costs and fees must be deducted in the same percentages as the proceeds are allocated. In re Estate of Merryman, 669 A.2d 1059 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1995). I trust that this letter is a sufficient representation of the Department's position on this matter. As the Department has no objections to the Petition, an attorney from the Department of Revenue will not be attending the hearing regarding it. Please contact me if you or the Court has any questions or requires anything additional from this Bureau. Finally, the approval of this allocation is limited to this estate and does not reflect the position that the Department may take in any other proposed distribution of proceeds of a wrongful death / survival action.

Morris, II, individually, and Crystal L. Morris, individually and as the Administratrix of the Estate of Chelsey L. Morris, deceased, by and through their attorneys, Eager, Spinello, Quinn & Stengel, and petition this Honorable Court for settlement of wrongful death and survival actions pursuant to Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure 2206, and in support thereof, allege as follows: 1. Petitioners, David H. Morris, II and Crystal L. Morris, are the parents and natural guardians of the decedent who was nineteen (19) years old at the time of her passing. 2. On March 25, 2004, Petitioner David H. Morris, II renounced his right to administer the estate and requested that Letters be issued to Petitioner Crystal L. Morris. A copy of the Renunciation is attached as Exhibit "A". 3. Petitioner Crystal L. Morris was appointed as the Administratrix of the Estate of Chelsey L. Morris, deceased, on March 25, 2004, by the Register of Wills of Cumberland County. A copy of the Certificate of Grant of Letters of Administration is attached as Exhibit "B". 4. On November 21, 2003, the decedent was involved in a fatal automobile accident on State Route 81, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania and was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident by Cumberland County Coroner, Michael L. Norris. A certificate of death is attached hereto as Exhibit "C". 5. The decedent died intestate. ,~. A 6. The name, relationship, address and share of each beneficiary that is entitled to share in the proceeds of the survivorship claim is as follows: NAME RELA TlONSHIP TO ADDRESS FRACTIONAL SHARE DECEDENT TO WHICH ENTITLED David H. Morris, II Father 505 West Perry Street ~ Enola, PA 17025 ~ Crystal L. Morris Mother 505 West Perry Street Enola, PA 17025 7. The name, relationship, address and share of each person entitled to share in the proceeds of the wrongful death claim is as follows: NAME RELA TlONSHIP TO ADDRESS FRACTIONAL SHARE DECEDENT TO WHICH ENTITLED David H. Morris, II Father 505 West Perry Street ~ Enola, PA 17025 ~ Crystal L. Morris Mother 505 West Perry Street Enola, PA 17025 8. Petitioners have entered into an agreement with the Petitioners' automobile insurance carrier, State Farm, to settle the survival and wrongful death claims, subject to this Court's approval pursuant to 20 Pa.C.S.A.S3323. 9. The proposed settlement is for the uninsured policy limits of Petitioners' automobile insurance. Attached as Exhibit "0" is a copy of a Certificate of Coverage issued by State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company. 3 10. Previously, by Order dated June 28, 2004, this Court approved a settlement in the amount of $45,000.00. That amount was based on there being a total of $45,000.00 of insurance coverage available. 11. Since this claim involves uninsured motorist benefits that there is an additional $15,000.00 in insurance coverage available. 12. The total amount of the proposed settlement is $15,000.00. The terms of the proposed settlement provided that ninety percent (90%) be apportioned to the wrongful death claim and the remaining ten percent (10%) of the settlement would be apportioned to the survivorship claim. 13. Petitioners concur in the proposed settlement distribution and desire that the gross settlement be allocated in the amount of thirteen thousand five hundred dollars ($13,500.00 (90%)) to Plaintiffs' decedent's statutory beneficiaries as "wrongful death" damages and one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500.00 (10%)) to Plaintiffs' decedent's estate as "survival" damages. 14. Attached hereto as Exhibit "E" is a letter from the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue authorizing the apportionment of damages of ninety percent (90%) to the wrongful death claim and the remaining ten percent (10%) to the survivorship claim. 15. Because the decedent was under the age of twenty-one (21) and the transfer of property herein is from the decedent to her natural parents, there is no inheritance tax pursuant to 72 P.S.s9116(a)(1.2). 15. The sum of one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500.00) is sufficient to protect the estate, the interests of the beneficiaries named in paragraph six above, the lienholders, other creditors and the taxing authorities. 4 16. The expenses incurred Eager, Spinello, Quinn & Stengel on behalf of the Petitioners are being paid by State Farm Insurance Company on an hourly basis and are therefore not claimed herein. 17. Due to the uncertainties of litigation, the proposed compromise is in the best interests of the Estate. 18. All of those parties named in paragraphs six and seven believe that the proposed allocation is fair and reasonable and their consent is attached as Exhibit "F". 19. If this Petition is granted, the settlement proceeds will be distributed as follows: I. SURVIVAL CLAIM (a) To the Estate of Chelsey L. Morris, the sum of one thousand five dollars ($1,500.00) to be divided as follows: (1) Y2 to David H. Morris, II (2) Y2 to Crystal L. Morris II. WRONGFUL DEATH CLAIM (a) To the statutory beneficiaries of Chelsey L. Morris, the sum of thirteen thousand five hundred dollars ($13,500.00) to be divided as follows: (1) $6,750.00 to David H. Morris, II (2) $6,750.00 to Crystal L. Morris 20. Petitioners and counsel recommend the proposed distribution as set forth above. The statement of George H. Eager for Eager, Spinello, Quinn & Stengel is attached as Exhibit "G". 5 WHEREFORE, Petitioners request that an Order be entered approving the proposed settlement of the wrongful death and survivorship actions, and authorizing the Administratrix to execute all necessary releases, endorse all checks and to make appropriate distribution.

Quinn, Esq. Eager, Spinello, Quinn & Stengel 1347 Fruitville Pk. Lancaster, PA 17601 Re: Estate of Chelsey L. Morris File Number: 2104-0291 Date of Death: 11/21/03 Court Number: CCP Cumberland Co. No. 2004-00291 Dear Mr. Quinn: The Department of Revenue received a petition concerning the approval of Settlement Claim to be filed on behalf of the above-referenced Estate in regard to a wrongful death and survival action. It was forwarded to this Bureau for the Commonwealth's approval of the allocation of the proceeds paid to settle the actions. Pursuant to the petition, the 19-year-old-decedent died as a result of a motor vehicle accident. The heirs to the decedent's estate are her parents. Therefore, any proceeds paid to settle the survival action would pass to the decedent's parents and would be subject to a zero percent inheritance tax rate. 72 P.S. 99116(a)(1.2). Accordingly, regardless of the allocation of the subject proceeds, there would be no inheritance tax consequences. Please be advised that based upon these facts and for inheritance tax purposes only, this Department has no objection to the proposed allocation of the gross proceeds of this action, $ 13,500 to the wrongful death claim and $ 1,500 to the survival claim. Proceeds of a survival action are an asset included in the decedent's estate and, although subject to the imposition of a zero percent inheritance tax rate in this instance, they must be reported on decedent's Pennsylvania inheritance tax return. 42 Pa. C.S.A. 98302; 72 P.S. 999106, 9107. Costs and fees must be deducted in the same percentages as the proceeds are allocated. !n re Estate of Merryman, 669 A.2d 1059 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1995). I trust that this letter is a sufficient representation of the Department's position on this matter. As the Department has no objections to the Petition, an attorney from the Department of Revenue will not be attending the hearing regarding it. Please contact me if you or the Court has any questions or requires anything additional from this Bureau. Finally, the approval of this allocation is limited to this estate and does not reflect the position that the Department may take in any other proposed distribution of proceeds of a wrongful death/survival action.
