4. On December 17, 2009, Mother filed a Complaint for Custody.
5. On December 21. 2009, this Court entered an Order based upon a_
$76. ov pcl-414Y
C&I isgL-,
2-4-.alpSool
stipulation entered into by the parties that granted the parties shared legal and physical
custody of the child. A true and correct copy of the Order of Court dated December 21,

matter.
10. The Honorable J. Wesley Oler, Jr. has been previously assigned to this matter.
