DEFENDANT
Amsley, Greg & Jennifer
2043 E. Winged Foot Drive
Chandler, AZ 85249
COMPLAINT:
Starting in June of 2000, Greg and Jennifer Amaley ordered (and received) from Highland
Gardens plants, trees, shrubs and mulch. These products were delivered to their home at
234 Skyline Drive, Meehanicsburg, PA. G-reg and Jennifer Amsley paid Highland Gardens
in full for the products delivered on the 9t~, 12~, 19~ and 26a of June. In July of 2000,
Crreg and Jennifer Amsley again ordered and received plants and mulch on the 3~, 25~ and
26~ of July 2000. The invoices for these deliveries are still outstanding. Crreg and Jennifer
Amsley were not pleased with the performance of 20 perennial bedding plants after being
planted by their landscaper. Highland Gardens, who does not guarantee the performance
of annual and perennial bedding plants, credited the Amsley's for the perellnla!n. All the
nursery items and mulch the Amaleys received in the months of June and July was sold to
the Amselys at a discount fi.om the retail price.
Highland Gardens has sent monthly invoices and made repeated calls to the Amsetys in an
effort to retrieve the meney they owe for products rceeived. The Amselys have made no
effort to pay on their balance due or return our phone calls. Greg Amsely contacted
Highhnd Gardens only aider he was served with a civil complaint fi.om District Justice
C?~rlca A. Clements ofl~ce.
Highland Gardens is asking that Csreg and Jennifer Amsley pay the balance due on their
account, which totals $1,128.17 and Judgment Costs of $89.30. Total Due Highland
Gardens fi.om Greg and Jennifer Amsley is $1,217.47

CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA
NO. 01-6603 Civil Term
DEFENDANTS' PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS
TO PLAINTIFF'S COMPLAINT
Defendants, Greg and Jennifer Amsley by their undersigned counsel, preliminarily
objects to Plaintiff's Complaint pursuant to Pa. R.C.P. 1028(a)(2) as follows:
1. Plaintiff mailed a one page Complaint against the Defendants, a copy of
which is attached hereto and marked Exhibit A to Counsel for the Defendants following the
filing of an appeal from a District Justice Judgement and said Complaint was received on
December 4, 2001.
2. The Complaint does not contain a Notice to Defend as required by Pa.
R.C.P. 1018.1.
3. The Complaint does not contain a verification as required by Pa. R.C.P.
1024.
4.
1022.
The Complaint is not divided into paragraphs as required by Pa. R.C.P.
5. The Complaint fails to identify whether the Plaintiff is Highland Gardens,
Larry Sorensen or both and the Complaint is signed by Larry Sorensen as President of
Highland Gardens and thus fails to meet the specificity requirements of Pa. R.C.P. 1019
in that the parties are not properly identified as an individual or a corporation.
6. The Complaint alleges the existence of writings, i.e., order slips, delivery slip
and invoices which are not attached to the Complaint as required by Pa. R.C.P. 1019(i).
7. The Complaint, if in fact the Plaintiff is a corporation, fails to contain the
signature of an attorney as required by Pa. R.C.P. 1023 and as otherwise required by law.
8. Under Pa. R.C.P. 1028(a)(2), a party may preliminarily object by a motion to
strike off a pleading because of a lack of conformity to the Rules of Civil Procedure.
WHEREFORE, Defendants request that the Plaintiff's Complaint be stricken.
