1. Plaintiff is
WELLS FARGO BANK, NA
3476 STATEVIEW BOULEVARD
FORT MILL, SC 29715
2. The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are:
BRIAN T. PROSSER
1227 BRIDGE STREET
NEW CUMBERLAND, PA 17070-1637
who is/are the mortgagor(s) and/or real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described.
S. On 11/27/1991 mortgagor(s) made, executed and delivered a mortgage upon the premises
hereinafter described to MARYLAND NATIONAL MORTGAGE CORPORATION.
which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in
Mortgage Book No. 1037, Page 729. By Assignment of Mortgage recorded 02/02/2007
the mortgage was assigned to PLAINTIFF which Assignment is recorded in Assignment
of Mortgage Book No. 0734, Page 0582. 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.
5. The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said
mortgage due 07/01/2008 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.
File #: 191423
6.
The following amounts are due on the mortgage:
Principal Balance $40,329.43
Interest $1,434.44
06/01/2008 through 01/05/2009
Attorney's Fees $1,250.00

8.
If the mortgage is reinstated prior to a Sheriff s Sale, the attorney's fee set forth above
maybe 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.
Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an in personam 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.
File #: 191423
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.
10. This action does not come under Act 91 of 1983 because the mortgage is FHA-insured.
WHEREFORE, PLAINTIFF demands an in rem Judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum
of $44,492.78, together with interest from 01/05/2009 at the rate of $6.58 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.
