AUDUBON PARK, Defendant COMPLAINT 1. Plaintiffs are Bradley Kellogg and Patricia Kellogg, husband and wife, who currently reside at 1615 Walnut Bottom Road, Newville, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17241. 2. Defendant is Audubon Park, who has its principal place of business at 84 Audubon Park, Dillsburg, York County, Pennsylvania 17019. 3. On or about December 4, 1995, Plaintiffs entered into a contract with Audubon Park for the purchase of a 1992 Skyline Royal Cove mobile home, serial number 13110385D. A true and correct copy of the sales contract is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "A" and made a part hereof. 4. The total cash purchase price of the mobile home was nineteen thousand nine hundred sixty dollars ($19,960.00). 5. The sales contract lists Anna Hollinger, an agent of Audubon Park, as the salesperson. See Exhibit "A". 6. The mobile home was previously owned by Theresa Singer, and was subject to a loan secured by the mobile home, and held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc., which is now owned by Bank of America. 7. In order to facilitate the purchase of the mobile home, Plaintiffs entered into a Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement with Audubon Park on December 4, 1995. A true and correct copy of the Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "B" and made a part hereof. 8. On page three (3) of the Retail Installment and Security Agreement, it states that the contract and security agreement is assigned to Harris Savings Bank, 2nd and Pine Streets, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17105, which is the lending institution which financed the Plaintiffs' purchase of the mobile home. 9. The Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement lists Audubon Park as the "Seller". 10. Anna L. Hollinger, an agent of Audubon Park, signed the Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement, and is listed as the "Salesperson." See Exhibit "B" at pp. 1, 3. 11. Since the time of purchase of the mobile home, Harris Savings Bank was renamed "Waypoint Bank" in October 2000, and subsequently was acquired by Sovereign Bank in February 2005. See correspondence from Heather Birch, Banking Officer, Sovereign Bank, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "C" and made a part hereof. 12. On or about December 11, 2007, Plaintiffs satisfied the loan held by Sovereign Bank for the purchase of the mobile home. See correspondence from Sharon Kegerise, Banking Officer, Sovereign Bank, dated April 1, 2008, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "D" and made a part hereof, and correspondence from Linda Sunday of the Sovereign Bank Consumer Loan Servicing Center, dated April 1, 2008, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "E" and made a part hereof. 13. On or about May 2008, Plaintiffs reached an agreement with Tom Sokol and Tasha Sokol to sell the mobile home for $8,500.00. 14. However, Plaintiffs subsequently discovered that title to the mobile home was still subject to a lien held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. (now Bank of America) which was obtained by Ms. Singer. 15. Through communications with counsel for Defendant Audubon Park, William A. Duncan, Esquire, Plaintiffs discovered that Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. was still listed as a lien holder on Pennsylvania Department of Transportation records. See Pennsylvania Department of Transportation Vehicle Record Abstract, dated May 7, 2008, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "I"' and made a part hereof. 16. Plaintiffs were unable to clear the lien on the title, and as a result, lost their ability to sell the mobile home to the Sokols for $8,500.00. 17. At the time Plaintiffs entered into the contract to purchase the mobile home from Defendant, they were not made aware by Defendant that clear title to the mobile home had not been obtained and transferred to them. 18. To the contrary, at the time Plaintiffs entered into the contract to purchase the mobile home from Defendant, they were under the impression that Defendant had good, marketable title to the mobile home, and that Defendant was transferring title to the mobile home free of any lien or encumbrance. COUNT I: BREACH OF WARRANTY PURSUANT TO 13 Pa.C.S.A. § 2312 19. Paragraphs 1-18 of this Complaint are incorporated by reference as fully set forth herein. 20. Defendant did not at any time notify or represent to Plaintiffs that Defendants were transferring title to the mobile home subject to the lien held by Security Housing Services, Inc. 21. Pennsylvania law requires the seller of goods to transfer good title, free of liens and encumbrances, to the buyer of goods. 13 Pa.C.S.A. § 2312 states: (a) General rule.--Subject to subsection (b) there is in a contract for sale a warranty by the seller that: (1) the title conveyed shall be good, and its transfer rightful; and (2) the goods shall be delivered free from any security interest or other lien or encumbrance of which the buyer at the time of contracting has no knowledge. (b) Exclusion or modification of warranty.--A warranty under subsection (a) will be excluded or modified only by specific language or by circumstances which give the buyer reason to know that the person selling does not claim title in himself or that he is purporting to sell only such right or title as he or a third person may have. (c) Warranty of merchant regularly dealing in goods.--Unless otherwise agreed a seller who is a merchant regularly dealing in goods of the kind warrants that the goods shall be delivered free of the rightful claim of any third person by way of infringement or the like but a buyer who furnishes specifications to the seller must hold the seller harmless against any such claim which arises out of compliance with the specifications. 22. Accordingly, Defendant had a duty at the time of Plaintiffs' purchase of the mobile home to ensure that they were transferring title to the mobile home free of any encumbrance or lien. 23. Since discovering that title to the mobile home was encumbered, Plaintiffs have repeatedly requested through counsel that Defendant, Audubon Park take measures to ensure that the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien has been satisfied, and have the lien removed from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (herein after referred to as "PennDOT") records as a lien holder. 24. However, to date, Defendant, Audubon Park, has repeatedly denied that it is their obligation to transfer good title free of encumbrances or liens. 25. Moreover, Defendant has failed to take any steps to ensure that the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien is removed from the title to the mobile home, or provide Plaintiffs with bank records or other documentation indicating that the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien was satisfied, thus allowing Plaintiffs to have the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien removed from the title. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs, Bradley Kellogg and Patricia Kellogg, respectfully request this Honorable Court enter and order: A. Directing Defendant, Audubon Park, to satisfy any debt(s) encumbering title to the mobile home; B. Directing Defendant, Audubon Park, to immediately take all steps necessary to have all liens and/or encumbrances removed from the title to the mobile home; and C. Directing Defendant, Audubon Park, to pay Plaintiffs, Bradley Kellogg and Patricia Kellogg, for all the reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses incurred in filing and prosecuting this action. COUNT II: VIOLATION OF PENNSYLVANIA UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES ACT, PURSANT TO 73 P.S. § 201-9.2 26. Paragraphs 1-25 are incorporated by reference as fully set forth herein. 27. Defendant, Audubon Park, is a duly licensed mobile home dealer under the vehicle manufactures, dealers and salesperson act, known as the Board of Vehicles Act, which can be found at 63 P.S. § 818.1, et seq. 28. Furthermore, Defendant, Audubon Park, held a license under the Motor Vehicles Sales Finance Act, which can be found at 69 P.S. § 601, et seq. 29. The term "mobile homes" is defined at 75 Pa.C.S.A. § 102, which states: "Mobile home." A trailer designed and used exclusively for living quarters or commercial purposes which exceeds the maximum size limitations prescribed by this title for operation on a highway and is only incidentally operated on a highway. 30. Anna Hollinger, the agent of Defendant, Audubon Park, is a duly licensed sales person under the Board of Vehicles Act. 31. Anna Hollinger was the salesperson who signed the Sales Contract and Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement on behalf of the licensed Dealer, Defendant, Audubon Park. 32. Defendant, Audubon Park, sold a mobile home to Plaintiffs using the buyer's order which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "A". 33. Furthermore, Defendant, Audubon Park, contracted a financing source and provided a loan to Plaintiffs for the purchase of the mobile home. 34. Previously, Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. provided a loan to Ms. Singer when Ms. Singer owned the mobile home prior to its sale to Plaintiffs. 35. Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. should have received a title to the mobile home as a condition of financing. 36. Title should have been held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. until such time as the loan was satisfied or the mobile home was sold. 37. It is the responsibility of a selling dealer to fulfill any requirements of the sale, particularly ensuring that there is clear title to the mobile home at the time the mobile home is sold to a buyer. (75 Pa. Cons. Stat. § 111, 63 P.S. § 818.19) 38. When Plaintiffs purchased the mobile home, they obtained financing from Harris Savings Bank. 39. The selling agent, Defendant, Audubon Park, should have then transferred title to the mobile home to the Kelloggs and recorded the lien holder Harris Savings Bank. 40. Upon information and belief, Plaintiffs aver that Defendant, Audubon Park, never transferred title to the Kelloggs and recorded the lien holder as Harris Savings Bank. 41. In order to transfer title, the original lien needed to be satisfied to provide clear title and to record the purchase loan as a first lien. 42. The law requires a licensed mobile home dealer and Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act license holder to maintain records and do everything necessary to legally transfer title of the vehicle being sold. 43. This requires the completion of the proper PennDot documents, the satisfaction of any liens on the previous title and the recording of the new lien on the title issued at the time of the sale to the buyers. 44. Failure to due so constitutes, at the very least, bad business practices under the dealer's license. 45. It is evident in this case that clear title was not provided by the Defendant, Audubon Park. 46. Failure to provide clear title allows a basis for rescission of the sales contract due to fraud. 47. However, the Plaintiffs did not discover the fraud until they attempted themselves to sell the mobile home privately, and demand for title was made upon them. 48. Failure to provide title is a violation of section 818.19 of the Vehicle Manufactures, Dealers and Salespersons Act (63 P.S. § 818.19) which states that it is illegal for a dealer to: (2) Make any substantial misrepresentation of material facts. (3) Make any false promise of a character likely to influence, persuade or induce the sale of a vehicle. (5) Fail or refuse to account for moneys or other valuables belonging to others which have come into his possession arising out of the sale of vehicles. (7) Commit any act or engage in conduct in connection with the sale of vehicles which clearly demonstrates unprofessional conduct or incompetence to operate as a licensee under this act. 49. Under the Board of Vehicles Act, the dealer, Defendant Audubon Park, would have been responsible for titling the mobile home. 50. Therefore, a copy of the completed PennDOT form should be available in the dealer's files. 51. Additionally, the dealer's records should contain evidence of the satisfaction of the first lien held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. on the first title. 52. Lastly, the dealer's records should contain evidence of the satisfaction of the first lien regardless of whom the dealer used as their agent. 53. A violation of the Board of Vehicles Act is a violation of Pennsylvania's Unfair Trade Practices Act, hereinafter referred to as "UTPA". 54. A violation of the UTPA allows the aggrieved party to seek treble damages and attorneys fees. 73 P.S. § 201-9.2(a). 55. Defendant, Audubon Park, violated section 201-3 of the UTPA, by utilizing "Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices in the conduct of their trade or commerce in their dealings with Plaintiffs. 73 P.S. § 201-3. 56. Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices are defined at 73 P.S. § 201-2(4) to include the following: (iii) Causing likelihood of confusion or of misunderstanding as to affiliation, connection or association with, or certification by, another; (xxi) Engaging in any other fraudulent or deceptive conduct which creates a likelihood of confusion or of misunderstanding. 57. Defendant, Audubon Park, could have contacted the successors to Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. to obtain documentation that the lien had been marked satisfied and the title cleared, by way of a Title Release Letter or No Interest Letter. 58. However, Defendant Audubon Park, has steadfastly refused to take the measures necessary to have the title to Plaintiffs' mobile home cleared, even though they are obligated to due so under the Motor Vehicle Manufactures, Dealers and Salesperson Act and their Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act License. As Defendant Audubon Park, had a duty to ensure Plaintiffs obtain clear title to the mobile home, failed to due so, and now continue to frustrate Plaintiffs' efforts to obtain clear title so that they may sell the mobile home, Defendants have engaged in Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices under section 201- 2(4) of the UTPA. 59. As a result of Defendant Audubon Parks' actions, Plaintiffs have suffered damages from their inability to sell the mobile home in May of 2008. Additionally, Plaintiffs have suffered damages in the amount of $200.00 per month in lot rent from May 2008 until the present, utilities in the approximate amount of $120.00 per month from May 2008 until the present, and insurance in the amount of $350.00, all of which they would not have had to pay had they been able to sell the mobile home in May 2008. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs Bradley Kellogg and Patricia Kellogg, respectfully request this Honorable Court award them treble damages and attorneys fees pursuant to the Pennsylvania Unfair Trade Practices Act.

In order to facilitate the purchase of the mobile home, Plaintiffs entered into a Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement with Audubon Park on December 4, 1995.

On or about May 2008, Plaintiffs reached an agreement with Tom Sokol and Tasha Sokol to sell the mobile home for $8,500.00. 16. However, Plaintiffs subsequently discovered that title to the mobile home was still subject to a lien held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. (now Bank of America) which was obtained by Ms. Singer. 17. Through communications with counsel for Defendant Audubon Park, William A. Duncan, Esquire, Plaintiffs discovered that Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. was still listed as a lien holder on Pennsylvania Department of Transportation records (hereinafter PennDOT). See PennDOT Vehicle Record Abstract, dated May 7, 2008, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "F" and made a part hereof. 18. Plaintiffs were unable to clear the lien on the title, and as a result, lost their ability to sell the mobile home to the Sokols for $8,500.00. 19. At the time Plaintiffs entered into the contract to purchase the mobile home from Defendant, they were not made aware by Defendant that clear title to the mobile home had not been obtained and transferred to them. 20. To the contrary, at the time Plaintiffs entered into the contract to purchase the mobile home from Defendant, they were under the impression that Defendant had good, marketable title to the mobile home, and that Defendant was transferring title to the mobile home free of any lien or encumbrance. COUNT I: BREACH OF WARRANTY PURSUANT TO 13 Pa.C.S.A. § 2312 21. Paragraphs 1-18 of this Complaint are incorporated by reference as fully set forth herein. 22. Defendant did not at any time notify or represent to Plaintiffs that Defendants were transferring title to the mobile home subject to the lien held by Security Housing Services, Inc. 23. Pennsylvania law requires the seller of goods to transfer good title, free of liens and encumbrances, to the buyer of goods. 13 Pa.C.S.A. § 2312 states: (a) General rule.--Subject to subsection (b) there is in a contract for sale a warranty by the seller that: (1) the title conveyed shall be good, and its transfer rightful; and (2) the goods shall be delivered free from any security interest or other lien or encumbrance of which the buyer at the time of contracting has no knowledge. (b) Exclusion or modification of warranty.--A warranty under subsection (a) will be excluded or modified only by specific language or by circumstances which give the buyer reason to know that the person selling does not claim title in himself or that he is purporting to sell only such right or title as he or a third person may have. (c) Warranty of merchant regularly dealing in goods.--Unless otherwise agreed a seller who is a merchant regularly dealing in goods of the kind warrants that the goods shall be delivered free of the rightful claim of any third person by way of infringement or the like but a buyer who furnishes specifications to the seller must hold the seller harmless against any such claim which arises out of compliance with the specifications. 24. Accordingly, Defendant had a duty at the time of Plaintiffs' purchase of the mobile home to ensure that they were transferring title to the mobile home free of any encumbrance or lien. 25. Since discovering that title to the mobile home was encumbered, Plaintiffs have repeatedly requested through counsel that Defendant, Audubon Park take measures to ensure that the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien has been satisfied, and have the lien removed from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (herein after referred to as "PennDOT") records as a lien holder. 26. However, to date, Defendant, Audubon Park, has repeatedly denied that it is their obligation to transfer good title free of encumbrances or liens. 27. Defendant, Audubon Park, failed to take any steps to ensure that the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien is removed from the title to the mobile home, or provide Plaintiffs with bank records or other documentation indicating that the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien was satisfied, thus allowing Plaintiffs to have the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien removed from the title. 28. Plaintiffs through their counsel researched and obtained a lien release letter from the successor bank to Security Pacific Housing Services. 29. Defendant, Audubon Park, refuses to assist in now transferring the title to the Plaintiffs. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs, Bradley Kellogg and Patricia Kellogg, respectfully request this Honorable Court enter and order: A. Plaintiffs seek attorney fees and cost for obtaining lien release in excess of $2,500.00 to date. B. COUNT II: VIOLATION OF PENNSYLVANIA UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES ACT, PURSANT TO 73 P.S. § 201-9.2 30. Paragraphs 1-29 are incorporated by reference as fully set forth herein. 31. Defendant, Audubon Park, is a duly licensed mobile home dealer under the vehicle manufactures, dealers and salesperson act, known as the Board of Vehicles Act, which can be found at 63 P. S. § 818.1, et seq. 32. Furthermore, Defendant, Audubon Park, held a license under the Motor Vehicles Sales Finance Act, which can be found at 69 P.S. § 601, et seq. 33. The term "mobile homes" is defined at 75 Pa.C.S.A. § 102, which states: "Mobile home." A trailer designed and used exclusively for living quarters or commercial purposes which exceeds the maximum size limitations prescribed by this title for operation on a highway and is only incidentally operated on a highway. 34. Anna Hollinger, the agent of Defendant, Audubon Park, is a duly licensed sales person under the Board of Vehicles Act. 35. Anna Hollinger was the salesperson who signed the Sales Contract and Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement on behalf of the licensed Dealer, Defendant, Audubon Park. 36. Defendant, Audubon Park, sold a mobile home to Plaintiffs using the buyer's order which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "A". 37. Furthermore, Defendant, Audubon Park, contracted a financing source and provided a loan to Plaintiffs for the purchase of the mobile home. 38. Previously, Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. provided a loan to Ms. Singer when Ms. Singer owned the mobile home prior to its sale to Plaintiffs. 39. Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. should have received a title to the mobile home as a condition of financing. 40. Title should have been held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. until such time as the loan was satisfied or the mobile home was sold. 41. It is the responsibility of a selling dealer to fulfill any requirements of the sale, particularly ensuring that there is clear title to the mobile home at the time the mobile home is sold to a buyer. (75 Pa. Cons. Stat. § 111, 63 P.S. § 818.19) 42. When Plaintiffs purchased the mobile home, they obtained financing from Harris Savings Bank. 43. The selling agent, Defendant, Audubon Park, should have then transferred title to the mobile home to the Kelloggs and recorded the lien holder Harris Savings Bank. 44. Upon information and belief, Plaintiffs aver that Defendant, Audubon Park, never transferred title to the Kelloggs and recorded the lien holder as Harris Savings Bank. 45. In order to transfer title, the original lien needed to be satisfied to provide clear title and to record the purchase loan as a first lien. 46. The law requires a licensed mobile home dealer and Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act license holder to maintain records and do everything necessary to legally transfer title of the vehicle being sold. 47. To transfer title to a mobile home, PennDOT requires that a form MV4st be filed. 48. PennDOT requires that only an authorized agent or dealer fill out a form MV4st transfer of title for it to be filed properly, 75 Pa.C.S. § 1111. 49. PennDOT also requires that a dealer use a Secure Power of Attorney when a title is encumbered by a lien holder. 50. This requires the completion of the proper PennDOT documents, the satisfaction of any liens on the previous title and the recording of the new lien on the title issued at the time of the sale to the buyers. 51. Failure to due so constitutes, at the very least, bad business practices under the dealer's license. 52. It is evident in this case that clear title was not provided by the Defendant, Audubon Park. 53. Failure to provide clear title allows a basis for rescission of the sales contract due to fraud. 54. However, the Plaintiffs did not discover the fraud until they attempted themselves to sell the mobile home privately, and demand for title was made upon them. 55. Failure to provide title is a violation of section 818.19 of the Vehicle Manufactures, Dealers and Salespersons Act (63 P.S. § 818.19) which states that it is illegal for a dealer to: (2) Make any substantial misrepresentation of material facts. (3) Make any false promise of a character likely to influence, persuade or induce the sale of a vehicle. (5) Fail or refuse to account for moneys or other valuables belonging to others which have come into his possession arising out of the sale of vehicles. (7) Commit any act or engage in conduct in connection with the sale of vehicles which clearly demonstrates unprofessional conduct or incompetence to operate as a licensee under this act. 56. Under the Board of Vehicles Act, the dealer, Defendant Audubon Park, would have been responsible for titling the mobile home. 57. Therefore, a copy of the completed PennDOT form should be available in the dealer's files. 58. Additionally, the dealer's records should contain evidence of the satisfaction of the first lien held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. on the first title. 59. Lastly, the dealer's records should contain evidence of the satisfaction of the first lien regardless of whom the dealer used as their agent. 60. PennDOT requires that only an authorized agent or dealer fill out a form MV4st transfer of title for it to be filed properly, 75 Pa.CS. § 1111. 61. It was Audubon Park's obligation to obtain the Secure Power of Attorney to ensure completion of its end of the transfer. 62. Audubon Park failed to obtain the Secure Power of Attorney. 63. Audubon Park failed to complete a form MV4st. 64. There is a judicial process to obtain title, however, in this case, Plaintiffs counsel has the lien release letter. 65. Plaintiffs counsel researched who was the successor to Security Pacific by calling the Department of Banking and Office of the Comptroller. 66. Plaintiff s counsel found the successor bank and asked them to provide a release of lien letter. 67. Plaintiffs counsel followed up with them and received the lien release letter. 68. Plaintiffs counsel obtained the form for a duplicate title and sent it to the former owner, who signed the form, had the signature notarized, and returned the form to Plaintiffs counsel. 69. Plaintiff has the lien holder release but does not have the dealer to complete the transaction. 70. A violation of the Board of Vehicles Act is a violation of Pennsylvania's Unfair Trade Practices Act, hereinafter referred to as "UTPA". 71. A violation of the UTPA allows the aggrieved party to seek treble damages and attorneys fees. 73 P.S. § 201-9.2(a). 72. Defendant, Audubon Park, violated section 201-3 of the UTPA, by utilizing "Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices in the conduct of their trade or commerce in their dealings with Plaintiffs. 73 P.S. § 201-3. 73. Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices are defined at 73 P.S. § 201-2(4) to include the following: (iii) Causing likelihood of confusion or of misunderstanding as to affiliation, connection or association with, or certification by, another; (xxi) Engaging in any other fraudulent or deceptive conduct which creates a likelihood of confusion or of misunderstanding. 74. Defendant, Audubon Park, could have contacted the successors to Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. to obtain documentation that the lien had been marked satisfied and the title cleared, by way of a Title Release Letter or No Interest Letter. 75. However, Defendant Audubon Park, has steadfastly refused to take the measures necessary to have the title to Plaintiffs' mobile home cleared, even though they are obligated to due so under the Motor Vehicle Manufactures, Dealers and Salesperson Act and their Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act License. As Defendant Audubon Park, had a duty to ensure Plaintiffs obtain clear title to the mobile home, failed to due so, and now continue to frustrate Plaintiffs' efforts to obtain clear title so that they may sell the mobile home, Defendants have engaged in Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices under section 201- 2(4) of the UTPA. 76. As a result of Defendant Audubon Parks' actions, Plaintiffs have suffered damages from their inability to sell the mobile home in May of 2008. Additionally, Plaintiffs have suffered damages in the amount of $200.00 per month in lot rent from May 2008 until the present, utilities in the approximate amount of $120.00 per month from May 2008 until the present, and insurance in the amount of $350.00, all of which they would not have had to pay had they been able to sell the mobile home in May 2008. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs Bradley Kellogg and Patricia Kellogg, respectfully request this Honorable Court award them treble damages and attorneys fees pursuant to the Pennsylvania Unfair Trade Practices Act.

Defendant is Audubon Park, who has its principal place of business at 84 Audubon Park, Dillsburg, York County, Pennsylvania 17019. 3. Defendant Audubon Park is a licensed mobile home dealer. 4. At the time of the activities complained of Audubon Park held a license with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania as a mobile home dealer and a licensee of the Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act. 5. On or about December 4, 1995, Plaintiffs entered into a contract with Audubon Park for the purchase of a 1992 Skyline Royal Cove mobile home, serial number 13110385D. A true and correct copy of the sales contract is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "A" and made a part hereof. 6. The total cash purchase price of the mobile home was nineteen thousand nine hundred sixty dollars ($19,960.00). 7. The sales contract lists Anna Hollinger, an agent of Audubon Park, as the salesperson. (See Exhibit "A".) 8. The mobile home was previously owned by Theresa Singer, and was subject to a loan secured by the mobile home, and held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc., which is now owned by Bank of America. 9. In order to facilitate the purchase of the mobile home, Plaintiffs entered into a Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement with Audubon Park on December 4, 1995. A true and correct copy of the Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "B" and made a part hereof. 10. On page three (3) of the Retail Installment and Security Agreement, it states that the contract and security agreement is assigned to Harris Savings Bank, 2nd and Pine Streets, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania 17105, which is the lending institution which financed the Plaintiffs' purchase of the mobile home. 11. The Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement lists Audubon Park as the "Seller". 12. Anna L. Hollinger, an agent of Audubon Park, signed the Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement, and is listed as the "Salesperson." (See Exhibit "B" at pp. 1, 3.) 13. Since the time of purchase of the mobile home, Harris Savings Bank was renamed "Waypoint Bank" in October 2000, and subsequently was acquired by Sovereign Bank in February 2005. See correspondence from Heather Birch, Banking Officer, Sovereign Bank, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "C" and made a part hereof. 14. On or about December 11, 2007, Plaintiffs satisfied the loan held by Sovereign Bank for the purchase of the mobile home. (See correspondence from Sharon Kegerise, Banking Officer, Sovereign Bank, dated April 1, 2008, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "D" and made a part hereof, and correspondence from Linda Sunday of the Sovereign Bank Consumer Loan Servicing Center, dated April 1, 2008, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "E" and made a part hereof ) 15. On or about May 2008, Plaintiffs reached an agreement with Tom Sokol and Tasha Sokol to sell the mobile home for $8,500.00. 16. However, Plaintiffs subsequently discovered that title to the mobile home was still subject to a lien held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. (now Bank of America) which was obtained by Ms. Singer. 17. Through communications with counsel for Defendant Audubon Park, William A. Duncan, Esquire, Plaintiffs discovered that Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. was still listed as a lien holder on Pennsylvania Department of Transportation records (hereinafter PennDOT). (See PennDOT Vehicle Record Abstract, dated May 7, 2008, a true and correct copy of which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "F" and made a part hereof.) 18. Plaintiffs were unable to clear the lien on the title, and as a result, lost their ability to sell the mobile home to the Sokols for $8,500.00. 19. At the time Plaintiffs entered into the contract to purchase the mobile home from Defendant, they were not made aware by Defendant that clear title to the mobile home had not been obtained and transferred to them. 20. To the contrary, at the time Plaintiffs entered into the contract to purchase the mobile home from Defendant, they were under the impression that Defendant had good, marketable title to the mobile home, and that Defendant was transferring title to the mobile home free of any lien or encumbrance. COUNT I: BREACH OF WARRANTY PURSUANT TO 13 Pa.C.S.A. § 2312 21. Paragraphs 1-18 of this Complaint are incorporated by reference as fully set forth herein. 22. Defendant did not at any time notify or represent to Plaintiffs that Defendant was transferring title to the mobile home subject to the lien held by Security Housing Services, Inc. 23. Pennsylvania law requires the seller of goods to transfer good title, free of liens and encumbrances, to the buyer of goods. 13 Pa.C.S.A. § 2312 states: (a) General rule.--Subject to subsection (b) there is in a contract for sale a warranty by the seller that: (1) the title conveyed shall be good, and its transfer rightful; and (2) the goods shall be delivered free from any security interest or other lien or encumbrance of which the buyer at the time of contracting has no knowledge. (b) Exclusion or modification of warranty.--A warranty under subsection (a) will be excluded or modified only by specific language or by circumstances which give the buyer reason to know that the person selling does not claim title in himself or that he is purporting to sell only such right or title as he or a third person may have. (c) Warranty of merchant regularly dealing in goods.--Unless otherwise agreed a seller who is a merchant regularly dealing in goods of the kind warrants that the goods shall be delivered free of the rightful claim of any third person by way of infringement or the like but a buyer who furnishes specifications to the seller must hold the seller harmless against any such claim which arises out of compliance with the specifications. 24. Accordingly, Defendant had a duty at the time of Plaintiffs' purchase of the mobile home to ensure that they were transferring title to the mobile home free of any encumbrance or lien. 25. Since discovering that title to the mobile home was encumbered, Plaintiffs repeatedly requested through counsel that Defendant, Audubon Park take measures to ensure that the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien has been satisfied, and have the lien removed from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (herein after referred to as "PennDOT") records as a lien holder. 26. Defendant, Audubon Park, repeatedly denied that it was their obligation to transfer good title free of encumbrances or liens. 27. Defendant, Audubon Park, failed to take any steps to ensure that the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. Iien was removed from the title to the mobile home, and failed to provide Plaintiffs with bank records or other documentation indicating that the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien was satisfied, which would have allowed Plaintiffs to have the Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. lien removed from the title. 28. Defendant, Audubon Park, refused to assist in transferring the title to the Plaintiffs. 29. Plaintiffs, through their counsel, researched and obtained a lien release letter from the successor bank to Security Pacific Housing Services. 30. Plaintiffs, through their counsel, obtained a duplicate title using the lien release letter. 31. Plaintiffs and Theresa Singer signed the title and PennDOT prepared paperwork to have the title issued in Plaintiffs' name. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs, Bradley Kellogg and Patricia Kellogg, respectfully request this Honorable Court enter and order: A. Plaintiffs seek attorney fees and cost for obtaining lien release in excess of $2,500.00 to date and ongoing. B. COUNT II: VIOLATION OF PENNSYLVANIA UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES ACT, PURSANT TO 73 P.S. § 201-9.2 32. Paragraphs 1-29 are incorporated by reference as fully set forth herein. 33. Defendant, Audubon Park, is a duly licensed mobile home dealer under the vehicle manufactures, dealers and salesperson act, known as the Board of Vehicles Act, which can be found at 63 P.S. § 818.1, et seq. 34. Plaintiffs paid the fee and obtained the title in their names. 35. Furthermore, Defendant, Audubon Park, held a license under the Motor Vehicles Sales Finance Act, which can be found at 69 P.S. § 601, et seq. 36. The term "mobile homes" is defined at 75 Pa.C.S.A. § 102, which states: "Mobile home." A trailer designed and used exclusively for living quarters or commercial purposes which exceeds the maximum size limitations prescribed by this title for operation on a highway and is only incidentally operated on a highway. 37. Anna Hollinger, the agent of Defendant, Audubon Park, is a duly licensed sales person under the Board of Vehicles Act. 38. Anna Hollinger was the salesperson who signed the Sales Contract and Retail Installment Contract and Security Agreement on behalf of the licensed Dealer, Defendant, Audubon Park. 39. Defendant, Audubon Park, sold a mobile home to Plaintiffs using the buyer's order which is attached hereto marked as Exhibit "A". 40. Furthermore, Defendant, Audubon Park, contracted a financing source and provided a loan to Plaintiffs for the purchase of the mobile home. 41. Previously, Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. provided a loan to Ms. Singer when Ms. Singer owned the mobile home prior to its sale to Plaintiffs. 42. Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. should have received a title to the mobile home as a condition of financing. 43. Title should have been held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. until such time as the loan was satisfied or the mobile home was sold. 44. It is the responsibility of a selling dealer to fulfill any requirements of the sale, particularly ensuring that there is clear title to the mobile home at the time the mobile home is sold to a buyer. (75 Pa. Cons. Stat. § 111, 63 P.S. § 818.19) 45. When Plaintiffs purchased the mobile home, they obtained financing from Harris Savings Bank. 46. The selling agent, Defendant, Audubon Park, should have then transferred title to the mobile home to the Kelloggs and recorded the lien holder Harris Savings Bank. 47. Upon information and belief, Plaintiffs aver that Defendant, Audubon Park, never transferred title to the Kelloggs and recorded the lien holder as Harris Savings Bank. 48. In order to transfer title, the original lien needed to be satisfied to provide clear title and to record the purchase loan as a first lien. 49. The law requires a licensed mobile home dealer and Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act license holder to maintain records and do everything necessary to legally transfer title of the vehicle being sold. 50. To transfer title to a mobile home, PennDOT requires that a form MV4st be filed. 51. PennDOT requires that only an authorized agent or dealer fill out a form MV4st transfer of title for it to be filed properly, 75 Pa.C.S. § 1111. 52. PennDOT also requires that a dealer use a Secure Power of Attorney when a title is encumbered by a lien holder. 53. This requires the completion of the proper PennDOT documents, the satisfaction of any liens on the previous title and the recording of the new lien on the title issued at the time of the sale to the buyers. 54. Failure to due so constitutes, at the very least, bad business practices under the dealer's license. 55. It is evident in this case that clear title was not provided by the Defendant, Audubon Park. 56. Failure to provide clear title allows a basis for rescission of the sales contract due to fraud. 57. However, the Plaintiffs did not discover the fraud until they attempted themselves to sell the mobile home privately, and demand for title was made upon them. 58. Failure to provide title is a violation of section 818.19 of the Vehicle Manufactures, Dealers and Salespersons Act (63 P.S. § 818.19) which states that it is illegal for a dealer to: (2) Make any substantial misrepresentation of material facts. (3) Make any false promise of a character likely to influence, persuade or induce the sale of a vehicle. (5) Fail or refuse to account for moneys or other valuables belonging to others which have come into his possession arising out of the sale of vehicles. (7) Commit any act or engage in conduct in connection with the sale of vehicles which clearly demonstrates unprofessional conduct or incompetence to operate as a licensee under this act. 59. Under the Board of Vehicles Act, the dealer, Defendant Audubon Park, would have been responsible for titling the mobile home. 60. Therefore, a copy of the completed PennDOT form should have been available in the dealer's files. 61. Additionally, the dealer's records should contain evidence of the satisfaction of the first lien held by Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. on the first title. 62. Lastly, the dealer's records should contain evidence of the satisfaction of the first lien regardless of whom the dealer used as their agent. 63. PennDOT requires that only an authorized agent or dealer fill out a form MV4st transfer of title for it to be filed properly, 75 Pa.C.S. § 1111. 64. It was Audubon Park's obligation to obtain the Secure Power of Attorney to ensure completion of its end of the transfer. 65. Audubon Park failed to obtain the Secure Power of Attorney. 66. Audubon Park failed to complete a form MV4st. 67. There is a judicial process to obtain title, however, in this case, Plaintiffs' counsel has the lien release letter. 68. Plaintiffs' counsel researched who was the successor to Security Pacific by calling the Department of Banking and Office of the Comptroller. 69. Plaintiffs' counsel found the successor bank and asked them to provide a release of lien letter. 70. Plaintiffs' counsel followed up with them and received the lien release letter. 71. Plaintiffs' counsel obtained the form for a duplicate title and sent it to the former owner, who signed the form, had the signature notarized, and returned the form to Plaintiffs counsel. 72. Plaintiffs had the lien holder release but did not have the dealer to complete the transaction. 73. Plaintiffs had to go to an authorized PennDOT title agent to obtain a duplicate title and get the paperwork to obtain a title in their names. 74. A violation of the Board of Vehicles Act is a violation of Pennsylvania's Unfair Trade Practices Act, hereinafter referred to as "UTPA". 75. A violation of the UTPA allows the aggrieved party to seek treble damages and attorneys fees. 73 P.S. § 201-9.2(a). 76. Defendant, Audubon Park, violated section 201-3 of the UTPA, by utilizing "Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices in the conduct of their trade or commerce in their dealings with Plaintiffs." 73 P.S. § 201-3. 77. Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices are defined at 73 P.S. § 201-2(4) to include the following: (iii) Causing likelihood of confusion or of misunderstanding as to affiliation, connection or association with, or certification by, another; (xxi) Engaging in any other fraudulent or deceptive conduct which creates a likelihood of confusion or of misunderstanding. 78. Defendant, Audubon Park, could have contacted the successors to Security Pacific Housing Services, Inc. to obtain documentation that the lien had been marked satisfied and the title cleared, by way of a Title Release Letter or No Interest Letter. 79. However, Defendant Audubon Park, steadfastly refused to take the measures necessary to have the title to Plaintiffs' mobile home cleared, even though they are obligated to due so under the Motor Vehicle Manufactures, Dealers and Salesperson Act and their Motor Vehicle Sales Finance Act License. 80. As Defendant Audubon Park, had a duty to ensure Plaintiffs obtain clear title to the mobile home, failed to due so, and frustrated Plaintiffs' efforts to obtain clear title so that they may sell the mobile home, Defendants have engaged in Unfair Methods of Competition and Unfair or Deceptive Acts or Practices under section 201-2(4) of the UTPA. 81. As a result of Defendant Audubon Parks' actions, Plaintiffs have suffered damages from their inability to sell the mobile home in May of 2008. Additionally, Plaintiffs have suffered damages in the amount of $200.00 per month in lot rent from May 2008 until the present, utilities in the approximate amount of $120.00 per month from May 2008 until the present, and insurance in the amount of $350.00, all of which they would not have had to pay had they been able to sell the mobile home in May 2008. 82. For violations of the Unfair Trade Practices Act, Plaintiffs seek the following damages: (a.) $5800 on loss of sale; (b.) $10,720 in loss of rent, utilities and insurance since May 2008, which is to date and ongoing; (c.) $2,940 in attorney fees to date and ongoing; (d.) $278.50 in costs to date and ongoing. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs Bradley Kellogg and Patricia Kellogg, respectfully request this Honorable Court award them treble damages and attorneys fees pursuant to the Pennsylvania Unfair Trade Practices Act.

Chertok, Esq. and Margaret M. Stuski, Esq., and in support of his response avers as follows: 1. Denied. Averment 1 was addressed previously in the Third Amended Complaint under the averments for Count II. 2. No response required. Averment 2 requires no response as it is a preliminary objection raised under Pa.R.C.P. 1028(a)(5). The note to Pa.R.C.P. 1028c(2) states that preliminary objections raising an issue under subdivision (a)(5) must be endorsed with a notice to plead or no response will be required under Rule 1029(d). As the preliminary objections were not accompanied by a notice to plead, no response is required. In the event that response is necessary: A. Neither party qualifies as a person having a joint interest in the subject matter of an action requiring compulsory joinder under Pa.R.C.P. 2227(a)3; B. Joinder of additional defendants under Pa.R.C.P. 2252 is a permissive right, not a requirement, and therefore does not obligate any party to do so; and C. Plaintiffs are not requesting any relief from Sovereign Bank or Mobile Settlement Services, and therefore could not join either party under Pa.R.C.P. 2229(b). 3. Admitted in part and denied in part. Sub-paragraphs (a) and (b) of Averment 3 are correct. Count I of the Third Amended Complaint seeks attorney's fees. It is also correct that a litigant may not recover attorney's fees in absence of an express authorization by statute, agreement of the parties or other exception to this rule. Defendant is incorrect, however, in the assumption that the Third Amended Complaint does not allege any facts which allow for the recovery of attorneys' fees and that Paragraph 33 of the Third Amended Complaint relates to purchaser financing and not rights to the Customer. Their mistaken impressions are evident, when one considers that: A. The relevant language from paragraph 6 of Additional Terms and Conditions of the sales contract highlights that attorneys' fees are available regardless of which party brings the action. B. Under Defendant's interpretation, paragraph 6 of Additional Terms and Conditions of the sales contract would encompass one-sided terms that permit Defendant to recover attorneys' fees under any successful action, whether as defendant or plaintiff, but would restrict Plaintiffs from the same benefit. This would constitute substantive unconscionability. C. 13 Pa.C.S. 2302 states that unconscionable contracts and unconscionable contract clauses may permit the court to refuse to enforce the contract, enforce the remainder of the contract without the unconscionable clause, or limit the unconscionable clause as to avoid any unconscionable result. D. Under Defendant`s interpretation, the court would have the ability to limit the unconscionable clause of paragraph 6 to avoid an unconscionable result, i.e. Defendant's availability and Plaintiffs' unavailability of attorneys' fees upon prevailing in any legal action either brought by or against the Defendant. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs Bradley Kellogg and Patricia Kellogg, respectfully request this Honorable Court deny Defendant's Preliminary Objections and require that Defendant file responsive pleadings to Plaintiff's Third Amended Complaint within twenty days after notice as required by Pa.R.C.P. 1028(d). In the alternative, Plaintiffs respectfully request any relief this Honorable Court deems appropriate. Respectfully submitted, St hanie E. hertok, Esquire PA Supreme Court ID#: 52651 Margaret M.
