Jones, by and through her attorney, Lori K. Serratelli, Esquire and the law firm of Serratelli, Schiffman and Brown, PC, who files this Petition to Modify Custody and avers as follows: 1. The Plaintiff is Margaret J. Jones, who currently resides at 707 Stag Court, Hummelstown, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania 17036. 2. The Defendant is Michael R. Jones, who currently resides at 33 Brentwood Road, Camp Hill, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17011. 3. The subject minor child is Elizabeth Mae Jones, born August 3, 2007. She is known by the name Livvie. 4. On July 29, 2009, Plaintiff filed a Custody Complaint. 5. On August 21, 2009, a Conciliation Conference was held before Hubert X. Gilroy. 83- 00/1 e ,2 9 c/ � q7 /9 6. On August 26, 2009, a Temporary Custody Order was issued pursuant to the agreement of the parties at the August 21, 2009 Conciliation Conference awarding father alternating weekend from Friday through Monday and Wednesday evening from 4p.m to 9 p.m. 7. On September 22, 2009, a Court Order was issued modifying the Court's Order of August 26, 2009 to note that Father's temporary custody pursuant to Paragraph 3.A of the Order shall be on alternating weekends. Since then Mother had allowed Father to retain custody Wednesday evening overnight until Thursday morning. 8. Over the past few years and especially since the subject child who is now six years old and in school, severe problems have arisen evidenced by the child's emotional state upon going to and returning from her father's custodial care. Specifically, Livvie has become very emotional in her Father's care to the point she is inconsolable and Father has called Mother to pick her up. Mother has heard and witnessed Father crying in front of the child, blaming Mother for the break up of the family and chastising Livvie for not loving him as much as she loves her Mother. 9. Father continues to exhibit signs of severe emotional instability and immaturity in terms of his ability to parent his daughter. 10. Mother requests that Father submit immediately at his own cost to a psychiatric evaluation of his mental stability and to a custody evaluation for the purpose of a recommendation as to what contact and custodial schedule for Father is in the child's best interest at this time. 11. Father is in need of parenting classes and should attend the ParentWorks program in Cumberland County at his own cost. 12. I have attached Plaintiff's Criminal Record/Abuse History Verification form required by Pa.R.C.P. No. 1915.3-1. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays that the court suspend overnight visitation on Sunday evening of Defendant's custodial weekend, limit the weekend to Saturday morning through Sunday evening and confirm the Wednesday evening custodial time to enforce the current Order of 4:00 pm to 9:00 p.m.; that Father be ordered to attend at his own cost the ParentWorks program in Cumberland County; and that he submit to a forensic psychiatric evaluation of his own mental health at his own cost as well as to a custody evaluation with an agreed upon licensed psychologist or licensed social worker with an expertise in forensic custody evaluations and recommendations to the court.

JONES, : IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS PLAINTIFF : OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, : PENNSYLVANIA vs. : NO. 09-4981 CIVIL TERM MICHAEL R. JONES, DEFENDANT : CIVIL ACTION - CUSTODY DEFENDANT'S ANSWER TO PLAINTIFF'S PETITION TO MODIFY CUSTODY AND NOW, comes the Defendant, MICHAEL R. JONES, by his counsel, Susan Kay Candiello, Esquire, and files this Answer to Plaintiffs Petition to Modify Custody and in support thereof asserts as follows: ' 1. Admitted. ' r {L , L) 2. Admitted. 3. Admitted. - 4. Admitted. 5. Admitted. 6. Admitted. 7. Admitted. 8. Denied, by way of further explanation, Once, one time, recently, when the child was overnight with Father, Livvie started to cry asking that she be able to sleep with her Father in his bed, as her Mother does every night Livvie is with her Mother. Father called Mother, at Livvie's instance, Livvie spoke with her Mother, it helped to calm Livvie down. Father then told Livvie to get a drink, from her refrigerator downstairs,this is when Father and Mother spoke. Mother never saw Father become emotional,picked up Livvie, nor has Father ever spoke about the things which Mother states in her complaint. Livvie came upstairs, went to her bed, and the entire episode was over. It has never happened again. 9. Denied, by way of further explanation, Father exhibits no such behaviors. 10. Denied, by way of further explanation, Mother is the party who would benefit from a psychiatric evaluation, but in lieu of a psychiatric evaluation, Father proposes that he and mother both engage in a custody evaluation, with the cost split equally, to determine the better schedule and place for Livvie to be. 11. Denied, by way of further explanation, Father does not need parenting classes, and it is Mother who would benefit most from such classes. 12. Attached is Father's Criminal Record/Abuse History Verification form required by Pa.R.C.P. No. 1915.3-1. NEW MATTER 13. Paragraphs 1 through 12 of this Answer are incorporated herein by reference thereto. 14. Mother attempted suicide, in 1999. 15. Mother was taking numerous prescriptions at the time Mother left Father's home in 2009. 16. Father has a very positive relationship with his daughter, they do many activities together. Father just purchased a recreational vehicle in which he and his daughter have already taken several trips together. t 17. Father has a serious girlfriend, whom Mother knows all about, and approves, Jamie Neumayer. Jamie has a daughter, who is nine, and she and Livvie get along quite well. 18. Father has no knowledge of Mother's boyfriend, not even his name. Father does know that Mother had a previous boyfriend who had an extensive criminal record. 19. Mother ignored the "shared legal"directive in their custody order and registered Livvie in Hershey Schools in direct opposition to even considering Father's wishes for Livvie to attend Harrisburg Academy. She visited Harrisburg Academy, but failed to tell Father she had already registered Livvie at Hershey School District. 20. Mother again ignored the "shared legal" directive in their custody order and never asked Father, but registered her in Brownies in Hershey. The Brownies in Hershey are on the Sunday nights Father has her. Father would take Livvie to any activity in which she participated, but Father believes it would have been less travel for Livvie if she could have registered in a Brownie troop in Camp Hill. 19. Since Livvie was nine months old, Livvie has been staying with her Paternal Grandparents every Sunday night thru Monday afternoon. Livvie loves her Grandparents and their three golden retrievers. Mother made the unilateral decision to stop those visits when school began and has not taken her back since. 20. Thus we see the one episode of crying, which Livvie experienced, was the culmination of several factors: Mother sleeps with Livvie every night she has her, the recent loss of her time with her Grandparents, the start at a full day first grade, this was not unexpected. 21. Father has attempted to work with Mother,to no avail. Mother has not abided by the custody order, the spirit of the custody order and what is obviously in the best interests of Livvie. WEREFORE, the Defendant, MICHAEL R.JONES, respectfully requests this Honorable Court to deny the Plaintiff, MARGARET J. JONES'S request and instead enter an order requiring a custody evaluation, where both parties are equally responsible for the cost and expanding the Defendant, MICHAEL R. JONES,to a fifty-fifty, shared schedule . Respectfully submitted, LAW FIRM OF SUSAN KAY CANDIELLO 7.

Jones, by her counsel, Lori K. Serratelli, Esquire, and files this Answer to Defendant's New Matter and in support thereof asserts as follows: 13. With regard to Defendant's allegations in Paragraphs 1-12 of Plaintiff's Petition to Modify Custody, Plaintiff has copious evidence of Defendant's emotional tirades. 14. Denied. Plaintiff did engage in cutting fourteen years ago as a teenager before she was married or had a child. She has sought counseling for an anxiety condition. 15. Admitted. Plaintiff/Mother did take one medication for anxiety and medication for an intestinal disorder. To her credit, Plaintiff sought help and continues to benefit from therapy to deal with anxiety as opposed to Defendant who has not dealt with his emotional and psychological condition. 16. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that Defendant attempts to have a relationship with his daughter but his own emotional issues are frustrating his ability to foster a positive and emotionally stable relationship with his daughter Livvie whom he berates when she cries because she misses her mother with whom she is strongly bonded. He has chastised Livvie for "not loving him". While Father does do many activities with his daughter, he often delivers her to her Mother seemingly exhausted from activities with her Father. Further, he often calls her very late at night, far past her bed time to say good night. 17. Admitted in part and denied in part. Defendant/Father has had a relationship with Jamie Neumayer of whom Plaintiff does approve and like. However, the relationship has been "on again, off again" with Defendant involved with another woman during his break ups with Ms. Neumayer. 18. Denied. Defendant has met Plaintiff/Mother's boyfriend, Craig Michael Anderson several times and knows his name. Further, Mother's previous, boyfriend, Karl L. Myers, did not have a criminal record to Mother's knowledge. Strict proof thereof is demanded. 19. Denied. Plaintiff in fact went with Defendant to visit the Harrisburg Academy, following which she and Defendant discussed the quality of the education at the Academy versus the Derry Township School District. Plaintiff did not believe the Academy's curriculum was superior and said she wanted Livvie to attend the public school into which she had not yet enrolled Livvie. Defendant was aware and did not object to the enrollment of Livvie in the public school after the Harrisburg Academy visit. Livvie is thriving in and happy with her school district. 20. Denied. Plaintiff told Defendant about the Daisies Brownie troop and that she wanted to enroll Livvie. The troop was to meet on Thursday which was Mother's custodial day. Defendant did not object. The troop then changed to meet on Sunday and Father has even taken Livvie to a meeting. Father consented to the activity on November 6, 2013 at 5:36 by texting "It's all good. I want her to do this". 21 (19). Admitted in part and denied in part. Before Livvie began first grade, she did spend Sunday night with her grandmother Nancy who then provided child care on Monday as stipulated in the 2009 Custody Order. When Livvie was old enough this school year to attend first grade, Monday child care was no longer needed. This was discussed between Mother and Nancy. Mother and Nancy discussed and jointly agreed that it would not be in Livvie's best interest for Mother to bring Livvie over to Nancy on Mother's custodial Sunday nights to Enola and then have Nancy bring her back to Hershey the next morning to begin school at 8:30 am. Nancy still spends time with Livvie and Mother is still appreciative and willing to have Nancy provided child care if school is not in session and Mother who is a teacher in the Harrisburg School district must work. 22 (20). Denied. Livvie does not sleep with her Mother. She had done so in the past but Mother worked on making Livvie feel comfortable in her own bed which is where she now sleeps. 23 (21). Denied. Mother has worked with Father as much as possible over the years, despite his emotional rants and constant use of profanity when they speak. Mother even expanded Father's time to allow him to have Wednesday evenings as an overnight rather than the 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm provided for in the 2009 Order. There are many instances where Mother has agreed to accommodate his work schedule and vacations throughout the year. There was also a time when Father agreed at Livvie and Mother's request to drop her off and pick her up at a church function with Mother on October 26 which was during Father's custodial time. In return, Mother agreed and followed through with switching two Wednesdays for Tuesdays, prior to October 26, at Father's request and convenience. When it was Father's turn to hold up his agreement on October 26 as to a drop off and pick up at church, he did not do so. He backed out and had Livvie call Mother to tell her she wanted to go to the Octoberfest and Mother needed to pick her up. Mother then had a conversation with Father which ended with him calling her "evil and selfish ". Father has demonstrated a lack of parenting skills in that he is frequently late to pick up Livvie at the bus stop, brings her to school tardy, dresses her inappropriately to the extent the school nurse called Mother to bring a change of clothes, is not vigilant about bedtime nor school homework which he has had Livvie complete in the car on the way to school on at least one occasion. WHEREFORE, the Plaintiff respectfully requests that Defendant's request for a fifty/fifty shared physical custody be denied, that the Wednesday overnight be eliminated during the school year with some additional time in the summer for Defendant, and a specific holiday and vacation schedule be included in the revised Custody Order. Holidays to be addressed which supersede the normal custodial schedule are: Christmas to be divided into two 24 hour segments, Easter, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Livvie's birthday with other holidays celebrated by the parent who custodial time includes the holiday. Further, Mother is requesting a vacation period for 2014 from July 26 returning August 3 to take Livvie to Florida for her birthday. She will be returned to Father on August 3, 2014 (her birthday) so that he can celebrate his portion of the 24 hour birthday time with her as well with the regular custody schedule to resume after the second 24 portion of her birthday ends.

The parties shall submit themselves, the minor child and anyone else as may be required for a custody evaluation to be performed by an evaluator agreed upon by counsel for the parties. The evaluation shall be an independent evaluation with the evaluator sharing the results of the evaluation with legal counsel for both parties. Costs of the evaluation shall be split equally between the parties. In the event legal counsel cannot agree upon the evaluator,counsel may contact the Custody Conciliator who,as appropriate, may recommend an Order to the Court addressing that issue. 2. Both parents shall attend parenting counseling at a counseling service as agreed upon by legal counsel for the parties. Each parent shall pay their own costs of this counseling. 3. The existing Court Order of September 22,2009,as modified by the Order of August 26, 2009, shall remain in place subject to the following modifications: A. The parties shall continue with the change the parties implemented themselves whereby father is seeing the child on Wednesday nights. B. The parties implemented a change on their own where the minor child would go to the paternal grandparents on Sunday evening and stay over until Monday morning. With the child now being in school,daycare on Monday morning is not necessary, and the custodial arrangements shall be such that when mother is enjoying custody on her weekend she will keep the child through Monday morning but when the father has custody on his weekend the father may take the child to his parents home for an overnight on Sunday night conditioned upon the child getting to school at the regular time. 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. BY THE COURT, Judge cc: .ri K. Serratelli, Esquire Susan Kay Candiello, Esquire V C24-4 0` -42? 4 3 MARGARET J.
