Avenue, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013.
2
The father of the child is Defendant, RODNEY W. NACE, residing at 1262
Landisburg Road, Landisburg, Perry County, Pennsylvania 17040.
4. The relationship of Plaintiff, JILLIAN FILI, to the child is that of natural
mother.
5. The relationship of Defendant, RODNEY W. NACE, to the child is that
of natural father.
6. The Plaintiff has not participated as a party or witness, or in any other
capacity, in other litigation concerning the custody of the child in this or any other court.
Plaintiff has no information of a custody proceeding concerning the
custody of the said child pending in a court of this Commonwealth or any other state.
Plaintiff does not know of a person not a party to the proceedings who has
physical custody of the child or claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to
the child.
7. The Plaintiff requests that in the best interest of their minor child that
Plaintiff have primary physical custody and Defendant subject to periods of partial
custody. Defendant has on occasion used the child as a weapon in his disputes with
Plaintiff by threatening to withhold him from Plaintiff and refusing to pay Defendant's
half of daycare. The minor child is no longer in daycare when in Defendant's care.
Plaintiff 's concerns are that she does not know where the minor child is or who is
taking care of their minor child when in Defendant's care. Defendant will not divulge
this information and refuses to allow Plaintiff to pick up the minor child from wherever
3
said minor child is when in Defendant's care. Prior to these instances, Defendant and
the said minor child were living with Defendant's mother and their minor child has a bed
to sleep in while at Defendant's mother's house. Plaintiff requires that when their minor
child is in Defendant's care that Defendant and their minor child stay at Defendant's
mother's house so their minor child has a bed to sleep in. Plaintiff also requests that
while Defendant is at work that their minor child be placed back into the daycare where
the minor child is while under Plaintiff's care and in the past under Defendant's care.
Further, Plaintiff having primary physical custody will allow their minor child to adjust to
the schedule before he starts school.
8. Each parent whose parental rights of the child have not been
terminated and the person who has physical custody of the child have been named as
parties to this action.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff requests the entry of an Order of Court providing as
follows:
a. Plaintiff will be agreeable to the verbal agreement that she has with
Defendant as long as Defendant agrees to return their minor child back to
daycare full time and pay his share $142.00 of the daycare expenses.
This is to prevent undue stress upon Plaintiff and their minor child while
their minor child is in Defendant's care. Plaintiff and Defendant may pick
up said minor child from daycare when it is their agreed upon day as
follows, this schedule will continue until said minor child attends school
beginning the year 2009; and after that Plaintiff will have primary physical
custody and Defendant having alternating weekends.
Week One: Monday, Tuesday Plaintiff, Wednesday, Thursday
Defendant, Friday, Saturday and Sunday Plaintiff
2. Week Two: Monday, Tuesday Defendant, Wednesday, Thursday
Plaintiff, Friday, Saturday and Sunday Defendant.
4
b. The Plaintiff will have primary physical custody and Defendant will have
alternating weekends, when their minor child starts school in the year
2009.
C. The Christmas holiday would be divided into two 24-hour segments and
alternated from year to year. Plaintiff, JILLIAN FILI, would have Segment
A (from noon on Christmas Eve through noon on Christmas Day) in even-
numbered years and Segment B (from noon on Christmas Day through
noon on December 26) in odd-numbered years. Defendant, RODNEY W.
NACE's, schedule would be the opposite. Another alternative to this
Christmas schedule would be Defendant shall have Christmas Eve from
8:00 a.m. till 10:00 p.m. every year and Plaintiff shall have Christmas Eve
from 10:00 p.m. to Christmas Day every year (as verbally agreed by
Plaintiff and Defendant). Then there will be no Segment A and B for the
Christmas Holiday.
d. The parties would alternate the following major holidays: New Year's Day,
Easter, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day and Thanksgiving, with
the period of custody being from 6:00 p.m. from the evening before the
holiday through 8:00 p.m. on the holiday itself. Plaintiff, JILLIAN FILI,
would have the New Year's Day, Memorial Day, and Labor Day holidays in
even-numbered years, and Defendant, RODNEY W. NACE, would have
the Easter, Fourth of July and Thanksgiving holidays in odd-numbered
years. Father's birthday with Father and Mother's birthday with Mother.
e. Each of the parties would also be entitled to a one full week of
uninterrupted custody during the summer for the purpose of a vacation.
The week would include the party's already-scheduled alternating
weekend and would include the period from 6:00 p.m. on Friday through
6:00 p.m. on the following Friday. A 30-day written notice is required for
both Plaintiff and Defendant. The request is first come first serve.
Mother's Day will be spent with Plaintiff, JILLIAN FILI, each year, and
Father's Day will be spent with Defendant, RODNEY W. NACE,
regardless of the regular custody schedule. The period of custody on
those days will be from 8:00 a.m. through 6:00 p.m.
g. The child's birthdays will be divided between the parties such that each
party will have custody of the child on his birthday each year,
notwithstanding any other provision hereof.
h. In the event that either party requires a babysitter for their minor child
while they are in that party's custody for any period of four (4) hours or
more, the other party shall be given the first right to have additional
5
custody of the child for that period. As much advance notice as possible
must be given by the parties of these opportunities.
All holiday and vacation custody would supersede the regular scheduled
custody.
