STEPHANIE NEWBURY, : CIVIL ACTION - LAW
Defendant : IN DIVORCE
PETITION FOR SPECIAL RELIEF
AND NOW, comes Jeffrey Newbury, by and through his attorney, Mark F. Bayley,
Esquire, and in support of the within petition avers as follows:
1. No judge has previously been assigned to a matter involving the above captioned
action.
2. The parties are Plaintiff, Jeffrey Newbury (hereafter "Husband") and Defendant,
Stephanie Newbury (hereafter "Wife")
3. The parties were married on April 6, 1991; they have four children between the
ages of four and fourteen (a custody trial is scheduled in December of 2008).
4. The marital residence is located at 73 Ridge Avenue, Carlisle, and is owned
jointly by the parties.
5. The parties separated on or around July 5, 2008; Husband remained at the marital
residence; Wife left the marital residence and recently relocated to 119 Andrew Court, Carlisle.
6. Since separation, Husband has assumed responsibility for any and all expenses
related to the marital residence including but not limited to mortgage, tax, and utility payments.
7. The marital estate additionally consists of various items of personal property.
8. Up until the weekend beginning August 28, 2008, Husband had been engaged in
good faith negotiations with Wife regarding the division of personal property, despite the fact
that Wife was demanding approximately 95% of everything; Wife had already removed various
items from the marital property prior to this date.
9. Husband took a beach trip with the children on the weekend of August 28, 2008;
Wife used this opportunity to plunder virtually all of the personal property from the marital
residence including but not limited to the following items:
a. front loading washer;
b. dining room table;
C. several television sets;
d. DVD player and VCR;
e. entertainment center;
f. Chaise lounge;
g. king size water bed;
h. computer, external DVD burner, Linksys router, Canon printer, computer
desk, computer chair, and computer accessories;
i. stereo system;
j. children's furniture and all of children's clothing;
I living room curtains;
1. virtually all decorations;
M. towels and linen sets;
n. DVD and VHS movies;
o. dishes, pots, pans, deep fryer, convection toaster oven, wine glasses;
P. 85% of food in pantry, refrigerator, and lazy suzan including various items
which Husband had recently purchased;
q. all spices;
r. all Christmas decorations;
S. large and small area rugs;
t. outside bar and 4 chairs;
U. wooden bakers rack;
V. vacuum;
W. video camera; and
X. other miscellaneous items.
10. Wife plundered the marital residence within a week after a spousal and child
support conference from which her net income became approximately the same as Husband's net
income.
11. Husband wishes to remain in the marital residence and wishes to have his own
privacy and to be protected against Wife's continuous raids.
12. Husband is in economic disaster; he is in no better position than wife is to pay
replacement costs for the above items; it would be equitable to appraise the above items and to
divide them evenly.
13. Plaintiff is interested in immediately obtaining the computer (9h. above) in order
to retrieve his business documents and email contacts of immediate concern.
14. The Defendant is presumably in opposition to the within petition.
WHEREFORE, Husband respectfully requests the Court to exclude Wife from the
marital residence pending further order of court and to divide the personal property, which is of
immediate importance to the parties, in an equitable fashion.

NO. 08-5433
JEFFREY NEWBURY,
Defendant IN DIVORCE
PETITION FOR EMERGENCY RELIEF
AND NOW COMES Plaintiff, Stephanie Newbury, Defendant above, by and through her
counsel, Saidis, Flower & Lindsay and states as follows:
1. The parties hereto are husband and wife having been joined in marriage on April
6, 1991.
2. Petitioner filed a Complaint for a Divorce on September 12, 2008 with a Count in
equitable distribution.
3. By way of background information, the parties have four minor children who
reside with Petitioner. Respondent resides in the marital home. The Support Master's Order of
September 29, 2008 found Petitioner's net monthly income at $1,254.00 and Respondent's net
monthly income at $3,832.00.
4. The assets of the parties are extremely limited, consisting of the marital home
with equity of approximately $17,000.00, two older, but lien-free vehicles and some household
goods.
5. The marital debt is somewhat extensive, totaling approximately $17,000.00 and
SAMIS,
LP4DSAY
A3TUHvetisn uw
26 West High Street
Carlisle, PA
consisting primarily of a joint Chase credit card with a balance at the time of separation of
$14,221.47.
6. On September 29, 2008, at a hearing before the Support Master, Respondent
tested that he intended to remain in the marital home, that he had not paid the mortgage on
the marital home for September 2008, that he had no intention of paying the mortgage going
forward and that he intended to file a bankruptcy under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code,
remaining in the house until the automatic stay was lifted and the house sold in foreclosure.
7. Since the parties' separation and Petitioner's engaging of undersigned counsel,
Petitioner has been attempting to list the marital home for sale. With his mortgage payment of
$2,018.90 monthly and a support obligation of $1,694.00 per month, Respondent clearly cannot
afford to retain the home nor, as he articulated at the Support Master's hearing, was his
intention to do so.
8. Petitioner seeks the sale of the marital home so that proceeds can be applied
against marital debt.
9. When Respondent files the Chapter 7 bankruptcy, he will discharge his
obligation for marital debt, leaving payment of that debt to Respondent and he will have
squandered the equity in the marital home, small though it is, for his own personal use (a
residence pending foreclosure at no monthly cost to him) and with it the benefit to the marital
estate of the elimination or substantial reduction of marital debt.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays this Honorable Court to issue a Rule upon the
Respondent to show cause why the relief requested should not be granted. Petitioner prays
that the Rule be returnable within a very short period of time as time is of the essence.
Petitioner also prays that a real estate agent be selected by counsel for the parties and that the
marital home be immediately listed for sale and that Respondent be ordered to cooperate with
the real estate agent by maintaining the house in good order and cleanliness pending the sale
so as to make the home as sellable as possible.

DEFENDANT'S RESPONSE TO RULE TO SHOW CAUSE ISSUED OCTOBER 8.2008
AND NOW, comes Jeffrey Newbury, by and through his attorney, Mark F. Bayley, and
in response to the Court's Rule To Show Cause issued October 8, 2008 avers as follows:
1. The Honorable M.L. Ebert, Jr. issued a rule upon Jeffery Newbury to show cause
why the marital residence should not be immediately listed for sale, why the marital residence
should not be maintained in a good and orderly condition pending sale, and why Mr. Newbury
should not be required to fully cooperate with a real estate agent and marketing process.
2. Mr. Newbury has been cooperating with the lender involved, M & T Bank.
3. Said lender has provided a potential option of transferring the deed back to the
bank in lieu of foreclosure.
4. This option will apparently prevent foreclosure, transfer the responsibility of
selling the property to the lender, and potentially allow Mr. Newbury to reside in the residence
pending sale.
5. The above course of action will likely alleviate Petitioner's concern.
I
6. Mr. Newbury would, of course, agree to maintain the property in good condition
and cooperate with the marketing process.

V. CIVIL ACTION - LAW
STEPHANIE NEWBURY,
Defendant NO. 08-5433 CIVIL
PETITION FOR EMERGENCY RELIEF
AND NOW comes Stephanie M. Newbury by and through her counsel, Saidis,
Flower & Lindsay, and petitions this Honorable Court as follows:
1. The parties hereto are husband and wife having been joined in marriage on
April 6, 1991 and having separated on July 5, 2008 when Plaintiff left the marital home with
the parties' children and filed a protection from abuse action against Respondent.
2. On September 12, 2008, Respondent filed a Petition for Special Relief
averring that since Wife had left the marital home, she should be enjoined from returning to
pick up personal property.
3. On September 29, 2008, this Honorable Court entered an Order awarding
exclusive possession of the marital home to Respondent, but providing entry to Petitioner
"after reasonable notice and approval of the request by written Court Order." The Order of
September 28, 2008 is attached hereto as Exhibit "A".
4. Since September 2008, Respondent has lived exclusively in the marital
FLOWER &
LINDSAY
26 West High Street
Carlisle, PA
home. However, since approximately October 2008, he has not made the mortgage
payment on the marital home. As a result, the home is in foreclosure and a foreclosure sale
is set for June 20, 2010. The parties have attempted to sell the marital home on a "short
sale" prior to the foreclosure sale. If the "short sale" is successful, settlement will be had on
or before April 30, 2010.
5. The parties are still married and the fair rental value of the marital home from
October 2008 until its sale in 2010 is at issue. To obtain an appraisal of the fair rental value,
on April 8, 2010, Petitioner's counsel wrote Husband's counsel asking for access to the
marital home by real estate appraiser Steven Barrett. Further, Petitioner's counsel sought
access to home by Petitioner who wishes to safeguard items belonging to the children and
items which she left behind in the nature of crafts and small items of personal property.
However, counsel for the Respondent has been unable to obtain a voluntarily compliance
with both requests.
6. This matter is of an urgent nature because the house is set to close on April
30, 2010, after which there will be a new owner of the property.
7. The Honorable M. L. Ebert, Jr. has been appointed to this case.
8. Respondent apparently does not agree with the relief requested.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner prays this Honorable Court to order the Respondent,
Jeffrey Newbury, to permit entry to the home at 73 Ridge Avenue, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, by
Steven Barrett Real Estate and Appraisal for the purpose of ascertaining the fair rental
value of the property and to permit Stephanie Newbury, Petitioner, to enter the property to
retrieve items of personal property belonging to her children and herself.

MOTION TO WITHDRAW APPEARANCE
AND NOW comes Mark F. Bayley, Esquire, and in support of the within motion avers as
follows:
1. The Honorable M.L. Ebert has had involvement with the above docketed matter.
2. Undersigned counsel has represented Plaintiff, Jeffrey Newbury, in relation to the above
captioned matter for the past couple of years in addition to other matters involving
custody and support.
3. Plaintiff has fallen out of contact with undersigned counsel for close to a year.
4. Plaintiff has failed to respond to letters forwarded to his last known address as well as a
note appended to the door of his last known address requesting him to contact
undersigned counsel in relation to communications and filings by Defendant's counsel.
5. Plaintiff s residence was recently sold and he no longer resides there; Plaintiff
presumably is having his mail forwarded; however, post office staff indicate that they
are not permitted to confirm this fact.
6. Plaintiff carries a substantial outstanding balance with undersigned counsel with regard
to legal fees and made his last payment towards said balance in December of 2008.
7. Despite said outstanding balance undersigned counsel would continue representation of
Plaintiff but has no desire to do so under the aggravation of Plaintiffs failure and/or
refusal to communicate.
8. Plaintiffs ongoing failure and/or refusal to communicate prevents undersigned counsel

9. The Divorce Master was appointed on motion by Defendant by order dated May 10,
2010; no further orders have been issued to date and no hearings are scheduled.
WHEREFORE, undersigned counsel respectfully requests that his appearance to be
