Lawyer Referral Service: Cumberland County Bar Association 32 South Bedford Street Carlisle, PA 17013 (717) 249-3166 File #: 200975 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: SERAPHIM LASKOWSKI SPIRIDOULA LASKOWSKI 702 PETERSBURG ROAD, CARLISLE, PA 17015-9231 who is/are the mortgagor(s) and/or real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described. 3. On 04/26/2005 mortgagor(s) made, executed and delivered a mortgage upon the premises hereinafter described to WASHINGTON MUTUAL BANK, FA. which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Mortgage Book No. 1907, Page 2488. By Assignment of Mortgage recorded 01/12/2007 the mortgage was assigned to PLAINTIFF which Assignment is recorded in Assignment of Mortgage Book No. 0733, Page 2448. 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 11/01/2008 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 ##: 200975 6. The following amounts are due on the mortgage: Principal Balance $119,448.99 Interest $3,596.64 10/01/2008 through 03/26/2009 (Per Diem $20.32) Attorney's Fees $1,300.00 Cumulative Late Charges $151.85 04/26/2005 to 03/26/2009 Property Inspections $30.00 Mortgage Insurance Premium / $98.00 Private Mortgage Insurance Cost of Suit and Title Search 750.00 Subtotal $125,375.48 Escrow Credit ($372.50) Deficit $0.00 Subtotal 372.50 TOTAL $125,002.98 7. 8. 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. 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 #: 200975 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 $125,002.98, together with interest from 03/26/2009 at the rate of $20.32 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.
