John E. Schoenberger,
Plaintiff
v.
A.D. No. 2004 - 22
W.L. Wagner, Inc.,
Defendant
Judge
ANSWER TO NEW MATTER AND COUNTERCLAIM
NOW COMES, the Plaintiff, John E. Schoenberger, by and through
his counsel, Sharpe & Sharpe, LLP, and replies to the Defendant's New
Matter and Counterclaim as follows:
Answer to New Matter
1 .
Paragraph 25 of Defendant's New Matter is admitted in part and
denied in part. It is admitted that W.L Wagner, Inc. did not sign the
Agreement. It is specifically denied that it is not a third party beneficiary of
the Agreement inasmuch as it was contemplated by the agreement and
granted a license to use the name "Schoenber'ger" as long as the
designated Wagner family members were the majority shareholders.
2.
Paragraph 26 of Defendant's New Matter is denied as stated. To the
contrary, because Defendant was a third party beneficiary of the
Agreement, it had a license to use the name and its change of ownership
has cause the license to lapse.
3.
Paragraph 27 of Defendant's New MattE~r is an incorrect conclusion
of law to which no response is required. To the extent a response is
required, the averment is denied. To the contrary, plaintiff licensed his
name to defendant in the agreement and his name has been
misappropriated.

remarries, cohabits, or either party is deceased. Said alimony shall be paid privately from

days, which default shall permit Wife to secure collection of future alimony payments through
the Cumberland County Domestic Relations Office.
