an adult individual who resides at 317 North Baltimore Avenue, Mount Holly Springs,

2. Defendant is Jeff Beitler (hereinafter referred to as the "Respondent"), an
adult individual who resides at 1211 Montour Road, Lloysville, Perry County,
Pennsylvania.
3. The parties are the natural parents of one child, Victoria Lynn Beitler, born
June 30, 2000 (hereinafter referred to as "the Child")
4. On November 9, 2009, an Order of Court was entered subsequent to a
hearing, providing the parties with shared legal custody and providing Respondent with
primary physical custody and Petitioner with partial physical custody every other
weekend from Friday after school until Sunday at 6:00 p.m. (A true and correct copy of
the Order of Court is attached hereto as Exhibit "A.")
5. In practice, the parties engage in a custody arrangement whereby
Petitioner has physical custody of the Child every weekend.
6. This Order should be modified because Petitioner provides the Child with
a stable, safe home, with the attentive caring, parental attention that provides for the
Child's overall well-being, while Respondent, simply, does not. C7,
cn r-, anrivea
7. Petitioner has a stable home of her own in which the Child

"
)
,
9 Respondent is unavailable for custody and has his 13-year-old son babysit
the Child, an arrangement of which Petitioner does not approve.
10. The 13-year-old boy plays with dangerous knives and often runs away
from Respondent's home because of the living conditions therein.
11. The Child states that Respondent is rarely home when the Child is staying
at Respondent's home, that Respondent is always on the go and the Child rarely sees
him.
12. Petitioner is ready and available for custody at all times of day, including
after school.
13. Respondent fails to supervise and discipline the other, violent children in
his household.
14. Respondent allows the other children in his household, including his 12-
year-old daughter, to physically assault the Child, resulting in bruising on the Child's
legs and arms.
15. The Child witnessed the 12-year-old girl choke her stepsister until she
nearly lost consciousness.
16. Respondent's home has unsatisfactory living conditions for the Child.
17. Respondent does not have space for the Child at his home.
18. At Respondent's home, the Child is one of five children to sleep in the
same bedroom.
19. There are only two beds in the bedroom and the Child thus sleeps on the
floor.
20. The Child shares a room, among the other four children, with
Respondent's 13-year-old son, which Petitioner believes is inappropriate.
21. The Child has her own bed at Petitioner's home.
22. The Child informs Petitioner that Respondent's home is filthy and is
cleaned only when the children attempt to do so.
23. Respondent does not feed the Child sufficiently at his home.
24. The Child is not allowed to eat snacks after school and Respondent does
not provide dinner until sometimes as late as 9:00 p.m.
25. The Child and her stepsister informed Petitioner three weeks ago that
Respondent fed the children nothing but frozen pizzas all week.
26. Respondent's sister recently warned Petitioner of the use of illegal drugs
by Respondent and his wife in Respondent's home.
27. The Child informs Petitioner that Respondent and his wife use illegal
drugs in front of the Child at Respondent's home.
28. The Child can and does describe the drugs and drug paraphernalia at
Respondent's home with a specificity that a 10-year-old child should not be able to do.
29. Respondent and his wife fight bitterly and constantly in the presence of the
Child.
30. Respondent and his wife fight in front of the Child with such ferocity that
when Petitioner is speaking on the phone with the Child, she cannot hear the Child over
the screaming of Respondent and his wife.
31. When Respondent's fighting overwhelms the Child, she hides in a closet
and telephones Petitioner.
32. Respondent does not provide the Child with clothes.
33. Petitioner purchases school clothes for the Child.
34. Petitioner has even purchased school attire for Respondent's other
children because Respondent does not do so even when their clothes are tattered.
35. The Child states that Respondent's wife threatens the Child.
36. The Child was held back a grade by her school in 2010.
37. The Child is currently failing classes at school.
38. The Child is weary of failing at school and states that Respondent does
not provide the Child with any parental attention in aiding the Child with her schoolwork.
39. Respondent failed to ensure that the Child completed a school assignment
due April 15, 2011, and refused to make the simplest of efforts to assist the Child.
40. Respondent telephoned Petitioner at 8:00 p.m. on April 14, 2011,
demanding that Petitioner go to Walmart to buy cotton balls for the Child's assignment
and subsequently drive an hour to Respondent's home to deliver the cotton balls.
41. Petitioner indicated to Respondent that, not only was the request
unreasonable, but also that it would be too late for the Child to receive the cotton balls
from Petitioner, complete her assignment and get to bed at an appropriate time, thus
Respondent should make the simple effort to buy the Child cotton balls.
42. Respondent flatly refused to do so and the Child was forced to go to
school the next day without having completed her project satisfactorily.
42. The assignment had been scheduled a week prior to its due date and
Respondent never informed Petitioner until the cotton ball request late the night prior to
its due date.
43. Petitioner readily provides the Child with her educational needs when the
Child is Petitioner's custody.
44. Respondent's home is such a violent, stressful, chaotic place for the Child
to live that she is not able to focus and complete her studies.
45. When Petitioner has custody, Petitioner engages in a routine with the
Child whereby they sit down together immediately after school and Petitioner helps the
Child with her homework.
46. The Child learns her homework when Petitioner helps the Child.
47. Under the current custody arrangement, the Child spends most school
nights in Respondent's home instead of Petitioner's, thus she is rarely able to receive
the vital assistance with her schoolwork that Petitioner provides.

51. The Child currently has a painful dental condition but Respondent will
neither take the Child to the dentist nor provide Petitioner with the insurance information

friend recently in a fire and, at the behest of Children and Youth Services, due to the

Respondent's home.

and his wife routinely respond rudely and verbally abuse Petitioner, telling her to "mind
your (expletive) business."

and healthy development.

head lice and subsequently missed three (3) days of school in the first
week.
e. Victoria missed two additional days of school during the second week

and told her that she was having trouble breathing. Father was
sleeping at the time and told Victoria to call her Mother. Mother
advised Victoria to call 911 and then called Father's wife to attempt to
have her take Victoria to the hospital. Ultimately, Mother ended up
going to get Victoria from Father's residence and take her to the
hospital again.
g. Mother has increased concerns that Father is either unwilling or unable
to provide adequately for Victoria's medical needs.
h. It is Mother's understanding that from August 23, 2012 unti l

encouraged by Father.

COURT ORDER "
AND NOW, this 7`~
.~ day of November, 2012, upon consideration of the attached
Custody Conciliation Report, it is ordered and directed as follows:
1. A second Custody Conciliation Conference is scheduled in the above matter on
Friday, December 14, 2012, at 9:30 a.m., to be held on the fourth floor of the
Cumberland County Courthouse. The father, Jeff Beitler, is directed to appear at this
Custody Conciliation Conference and make an effort to resolve the issues before the
Court.
2. A hearing before this Court is also scheduled on Mother's Petition for Modiciation
for the ~ day of _, 2013, at ~~ ~. m.
in Courtroom No. 2 of the Cumberland ounty Courthouse. At this hearing, the
mother shall be the moving party and shall proceed initially with testimony. Counsel
for the parties, or the parties themselves if they do not have counsel, shall file a
Memorandum setting forth the history of custody in this case, the issues currently
before the Court, a list of witnesses who will be called to testify on behalf of each
party, and a summary of the anticipated testimony of each witness. This
Memorandum shall be filed at least five days prior to the mentioned hearing date.
3. In the event the parties are able to reach an agreement at the Custody Conciliation
Conference scheduled above, the Conciliator directs that the Court be notified and
the hearing schedule above shall be cancelled.
4. There is an existing Order of November 9, 2009, which provides mother with various
periods of partial custody. Father is specifically advised to comply with said Order
and, in the event there is evidence at the hearing scheduled above that father has not
complied with the above Order, the Court will entertain a request at that time to hold
father in contempt for willful violation of a Court Order.
5. Pending further Order of this Court, this Court's prior Order of November 9, 2009,
shall remain in place.
No party shall be permitted to relocate the residence of the child where said relocation will
significantly impair the ability to exercise custody unless every individual who has custodial
rights to the child consents to the proposed relocation or the court approves the proposed
relocation. Any party proposing to relocate MUST comply with 23 Pa. C.S. § 5337.

iN CUSTODY
PRIOR JUDGE: The Honorable M. L. Ebert, Jr.
CONCILIATION CONFERENCE SUMMARY REPORT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL
PROCEDURE 1915.3-8(b), the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report:
1. The pertinent information pertaining to the child who is the subject of this litigation
is as follows:
Victoria L. Beitler, born June 30, 2000
2. A Conciliation Conference was held on November 20, 2012, with the following
individuals in attendance:
The mother, Anna Marie Keller (formerly Holland), with her counsel, Jessica Holst.
The father did not appear. Mother believes that father was aware of the Conciliation
Conference, and Attorney Holst suggests she had service on the father with respect
to notice of the Conference and the filing of the Petition for Modification.
3. Since the father did not appear and there is an existing Order from 2009, the
Conciliator is not comfortable recommending any modifications of the existing Order
to the Court. Accordingly, a hearing is necessary. However, the Conciliator believes
that some issues may be resolved at a Custody Conciliation Conference assuming the
father attends such a Conference. Accordingly, the Conciliator recommends that a
hearing be set but that another Conciliation Conference also be set in this case in an
effort to see if the matter can be resolved without a hearing.
4. The Conciliator recommends an Order in the form as attached.
