File #: 186568
1. Plaintiff is
PHH MORTGAGE CORPORATION
4001 LEADENHALL ROAD
MOUNT LAUREL, NJ 08054
2. The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are:
CURTIS M. WANN, H
A/K/A CURTIS M. WANN
BONNIE J. WANN
18 NELSON DRIVE
CARLISLE, PA 17015-9335
who is/are the mortgagor(s) and/or real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described.
3. On 03/31/2004 mortgagor(s) made, executed and delivered a mortgage upon the premises
hereinafter described to CENDANT MORTGAGE CORPORATION which mortgage is
recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Mortgage Book
No. 1859, Page 3764. By Assignment of Mortgage recorded 08/27/2004 the mortgage
was assigned to MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC.
which Assignment is recorded in Assignment of Mortgage Book No. 711, Page 508. Said
mortgage was modified as set forth in the modification agreement dated 11/02/2006, in
Mortgage Book No. 0732, Page 1670. The PLAINTIFF is now the legal owner of the
mortgage and is in the process of formalizing an assignment of same. The mortgage and
assignment(s), if any, are matters of public record and are incorporated herein by
reference in accordance with Pa.R.C.P. 1019(g); which Rule relieves the Plaintiff from its
obligations to attach documents to pleadings if those documents are of public record.
4. The premises subject to said mortgage is described as attached.
File #: 196568
5. The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said
mortgage due 03/01/2008 and each month thereafter are due and unpaid, and by the terms
of said mortgage, upon failure of mortgagor to make such payments after a date specified
by written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due
thereon are collectible forthwith.
6. The following amounts are due on the mortgage:
Principal Balance $245,865.75
Interest $11,237.88
02/01/2008 through 11/10/2008
(Per Diem $39.57)
Attorney's Fees $1,250.00
Cumulative Late Charges $443.37
03/31/2004 to 11/10/2008
Property Inspections $79.50
Cost of Suit and Title Search 550.00
Subtotal $259,426.50
Escrow
Credit $0.00
Deficit $1,874.56
Subtotal $1,874.56
TOTAL $261,301.06
7. If the mortgage is reinstated prior to a Sheriffs Sale, the attorney's fee set forth above
may be less than the amount demanded based on work actually performed. The
attorney's fees requested are in conformity with the mortgage and Pennsylvania law.
Plaintiff reserves its right to collect attorney's fees up to 5% of the remaining principal
balance in the event the property is sold to a third party purchaser at Sheriffs Sale, or if
the complexity of the action requires additional fees in excess of the amount demanded in
the Action.
File #: 186568
8. Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an in person am judgment)
against the Defendant(s) in the Action; however, Plaintiff reserves its right to bring a
separate Action to establish that right, if such right exists. If Defendant(s) has/have
received a discharge of personal liability in a bankruptcy proceeding, this Action of
Mortgage Foreclosure is in no way an attempt to reestablish such personal liability
discharged in bankruptcy, but only to foreclose the mortgage and sell the mortgaged
premises pursuant to Pennsylvania Law.
9. Notice of Intention to Foreclose as set forth in Act 6 of 1974, Notice of Homeowner's
Emergency Assistance Program pursuant to Act 91 of 1983, as amended in 1998, and/or
Notice of Default as required by the mortgage document, as applicable, have been sent to
the Defendant(s) on the date(s) set forth thereon, and the temporary stay as provided by
said notice has terminated because Defendant(s) has/have failed to meet with the Plaintiff
or an authorized consumer credit counseling agency, or has/have been denied assistance
by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency.
File #: 186568
10. The action does not come under Act 6 of 1974 because the original mortgage amount
exceeds the dollar amount provided in the statute.
WHEREFORE, PLAINTIFF demands an in rem Judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum
of $261,301.06, together with interest from 11/10/2008 at the rate of $39.57 per diem to the date
of Judgment, and other costs and charges collectible under the mortgage and for the foreclosure
and sale of the mortgaged property.

NEW MATTER
11. On or about May 2003, Curtis Wann accepted a position with Ciber, Inc. in
Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, to specifically work on a Department of Public Health, Women,
Infants and Children ("WIC") project in New Orleans, Louisiana, as a software development
project manager.
12. On or about August 2005 Hurricane Katrina struck the area in and around New
Orleans, Louisiana.
4
13. The WIC project in New Orleans, Louisiana, was put on indefinite hold due to the
devastation and aftermath caused by Hurricane Katrina.
14. On or about October 2005, Mr. Wann was permanently laid off from his project
manager position on the WIC project in New Orleans, Louisiana, with no definite date of return.
15. On or about June 2006, Mr. Wann accepted a job at Home Depot working as a
department supervisor.
16. On or about October 2007, Mr. Wann discussed with Home Depot management
that he felt that he was not meeting the various sales, extended warranties, and credit application
goals that Home Depot sets for their department supervisors.
17. On or about that same time Mr. Wann requested that he be removed from the
department supervisor position and re-assigned as a sales associate.
18. On or about that same time Horne Depot informed Mr. Wann that it was not their
policy to re-assign department supervisors as sale associates, and, instead, placed Mr. Wann in a
60 days performance improvement program beginning early December 2007.
19. On or about the 57`'' day of the 60-day program Mr. Wann approached his then
(new) manager and again asked to be re-assigned as a sales associate.
20. On or about that same time Mr. Wann's manager informed him that it was Home
Depot's policy to not re-assign department supervisors as sales associates.
21. On or about January 28, 2008, Mr. Wann, following the advice of Home Depot,
resigned from his department supervisor position at Home Depot.
5
22. At all times relevant after January 28, 2008 Mr. Wann inquired at Home Depot
locations regarding sales associate positions, but was informed that no sales associate positions
were available.
23. On or about May 16, 2008, Curtis Wann was denied unemployment benefits
because he voluntarily resigned from his position at Home Depot.
24. Throughout the Spring and Summer of 2008 the Wanns were in contact with PHH
regarding attempts to enter into a modification agreement regarding the Wanns' mortgage held
by PHH.
25. In the Spring of 2008 PHH informed the Wanns that PHH was interested in
working with the Wanns, and PHH requested financial information from the Wanns so that PHH
could determine which available mortgage modification program would be best for the Wanns
26. The Wanns relied on these statements by PHH regarding the mortgage
modification programs and supplied PHH with all of the requested financial information.
27. The Wanns continued to rely on the statements made by PHH, and continued to
act in good faith regarding attempting to work out a mortgage modification with PHH.
28. Throughout the Summer and Fall of 2008 the Wanns continued to try to contact
PHH by telephone and e-mail, but PHH did not respond to any of the Wanns attempts to contact
PHH.
29. In the meantime, on or about June 5, 2008, the Wanns applied for mortgage
assistance from the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency ("PHFA") under the Homeowner's
Emergency Mortgage Assistance Program ("HEMAP").
6
30. On or about June 2008 the Wanns attended a personal interview in Gettysburg,
Pennsylvania, regarding their application for mortgage assistance from PHFA under the HEMAP
program., and, a subsequent credit counseling session was scheduled for August 12, 2008.
31. On or about July 15, 2008, the Wanns received correspondence from the credit
counselor notifying the Wanns that the credit counselor they were scheduled to meet with was
transferring to a different region and the credit counseling session would have to be re-
scheduled.
32. On or about August 1, 2008, and before the credit counseling session could even
be rescheduled, the Wanns received Notice that they were denied relief under the HEMAP
program by the PHFA.
33. The Wanns were denied acceptance into the HEMAP program by PHFA before
the application and credit counseling process could even be completed.
34. On or about September 2, 2008 the Wanns received notice from PHH that their
mortgage account had been turned over to an attorney.
35. Immediately after receiving the above referenced notice, Mrs. Wann telephoned
PHH and was told by a PHH representative that the attorney action would be put on "hold". PHH
then requested additional financial information, which Mrs. Wann immediately faxed to PHH.
36. Then, without warning from PHH, on or about November 14, 2008 the Wanns
were served with the Complaint in Mortgage Foreclosure filed by PHH.
37. The Wanns recently completed the paperwork and filed for mortgage assistance
from the PHFA under the Homeowner's Equity Recovery Opportunity ("HERO") loan program,
and are awaiting notification from PHFA regarding the status of their application.
7
38. PHH Mortgage Corporation failed to comply with the notice provisions of Act 6
of 1974 with regard to the Complaint in Mortgage Foreclosure filed against Curtis and Bonnie
Warn.
39. PHH Mortgage Corporation failed to comply with the notice provisions of Act 91
of 1983 with regard to the Complaint in Mortgage Foreclosure filed against Curtis and Bonnie
Wann.
40. PHH Mortgage Corporation failed to comply with the notice provisions of the
mortgage documents applicable to the Wanns' mortgage.
WHEREFORE, the Defendants respectfully request that this Court dismiss the Plaintiff's
Complaint with prejudice, enter judgment in favor of the Defendants, and award the Defendants
costs, attorney's fees, interest, and any other remedy as this Court deems just.
