IN DIVORCE
PETITION TO VACATE OR MODIFY PRIOR ORDER OF COURT
AND NOW comes the above-named Defendant, by his attorney, Samuel L. Andes,
and petitions the court to vacate or modify its order of 23 January 2001, based upon the
following:
1. The Petitioner herein is the Defendant. The Respondent herein is the Plaintiff.
2. Shortly after this action was commenced, Defendant filed a Petition for Special
Relief requesting that various investment accounts and other assets of the parties be
frozen and that neither party make any disbursement of funds or income from those
assets. In response to that Petition, this court entered an order, dated 23 January 2001,
scheduling a hearing and enjoining Defendant from making any withdraws from identified
investment accounts or disposing of any of the rental income from properties owned by
the parties.
3. The hearing scheduled on Plaintiff's Petition was postponed and has never been
held. As a result, this court's interim order has now been in effect for more than one
year.
4. The restriction on assets requested by Plaintiffs in her original Petition is not
necessary because the parties own more than sufficient assets to secure her interest in
the marital property. The assets that the parties own, including the following:
A. An apartment building at 73-75 East North Street in the Borough
of Carlisle which has a value of $104,000.00.
B. An apartment building at 69 East North Street in the Borough of
Carlisle which has a value of $88,000.00.
C. A tract of mountain land with a cabin, located in Lower Frankford
Township, Cumberland County, which has a value of approximately
$35,000.00.
D. An investment account in Defendant's name with Tucker Anthony
Investments which has a balance of approximately $30,000.00.
E. A second investment account in Defendant's name with Tucker
Anthony Investments which has a value of approximately $12,000.00.
F. An individual retirement account in Defendant's name with Tucker
Anthony Investments which has an approximate balance of $6,000,00.
The above assets are subject to liens which encumber them which have a total balance
due of approximately $151,000.00. As a result of that lien, the parties' total equity in
the assets they own, which are subject to the divorce litigation, is approximately
$124,000.00.
5. The parties have previously agreed, in a written Post-Nuptial Agreement they
have signed, that wife has already received, and should be charged with receipt of,
marital assets having a value of $126,000.00. As a result of that agreement, it is unlikely
that Plaintiff will receive any substantial portion of the above assets. Attached hereto and
marked as Exhibit A is a copy of that Post-Nuptial Agreement.
6. Security for Plaintiff, in the form of the accounts being frozen, is not necessary
in this action for the following reasons:
A After applying the credit for which Plaintiff is to be charged
pursuant to the parties' Post-Nuptial Agreement, it is very unlikely Plaintiff
will be awarded any marital property.
B. The real estate owned by the parties, in which they have equity
of approximately $76,000.00, cannot be sold, encumbered, or alienated
without the mutual consent of both parties. As a result, Plaintiff's interest
in the marital property is adequately secured by her interest in that real
estate.
7. The accounts at Tucker Anthony Investments which were frozen
by this court's order of 23 January 2001, are needed by Defendant to
operate his business, to maintain the assets of the parties, and to meet his
other financial needs.
8. Tucker Anthony Investments has notified Defendant that it is
closing its Carlisle office and that its investment personnel are being laid off
or transferred to another office. As a result of that action by Tucker
Anthony Investments, Defendant wishes to move his investment accounts
to another broker or investment company.
9. The security requested by Plaintiff and granted to her on an
interim basis by this court's order of 23 January 2001, is not necessary and
imposes an unreasonable restriction and hardship on Defendant.
WHEREFORE, Defendant prays this court to vacate its order of 23
January 2001, or to modify the order to remove the restrictions on the
assets and incomes of the parties.

ORDER OF COURT
AND NOW, this 17th day of October, 2002,
upon consideration of Defendant's Petition To Vacate or
Modify Prior Order of Court, and pursuant to an agreement
reached between and among counsel for the parties and the
parties in open court, it is ordered and directed as
follows:
1. Our order of January 23, 2001, in this
matter is hereby vacated.
2. The Defendant shall within 30 days of
the date of this order open a new investment account with
RBC Dain Rauscher, a brokerage firm, and deposit in that
account, from the accounts previously subject to our prior
order, the sum of $10,000.00. When the Defendant funds the
new account with $10,000.00, he shall not use funds from
his individual retirement account or funds from the
accounts held by the parties for their children.
3. The Plaintiff shall transfer to
Defendant, by special warranty deed, the real estate
currently owned jointly by the parties at 73-75 East North

subject to their existing mortgage obligation, for the
purpose of allowing the Defendant to refinance that
obligation and, hopefully, obtain a reduced interest rate.
The deed to transfer the properties will be delivered at or
shortly prior to a settlement on the refinancing obtained
by the Defendant. Both parties will cooperate to have that
refinancing and the transfer of the property obtained as
promptly as reasonably possible. Plaintiff shall have the
right, upon prior arrangements with Defendant, to have
access to the property to have it appraised, if she chooses
to do so, at her expense. Both parties reserve all of
their other claims relating to those properties as raised
in this divorce action to be litigated by the Court at a
later time.

Plainti
Date: 1 (7 Attorney for
Explanatory Comment
The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania has promulgated new Rule of Civil Procedure 230.2 governing the termination of
inactive cases and amended Rule of Judicial Administration 1901. Two aspects of the recommendation merit
comment.
1. Rule of civil Procedure
New Rule of Civil Procedure 230.2 has been promulgated to govern the termination of inactive cases within the
scope of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure. The termination of these cases for inactivity was previously
governed by Rule of Judicial Administration 1901 and local rules promulgated pursuant to it. New Rule 230.2 is
tailored to the needs of civil actions. It provides a complete procedure and a uniform statewide practice, preempting
local rules.
This rule was promulgated in response to the decision of the Supreme Court in Shop v. Eagle, 551 Pa. 360,710 A.2d
1104 (1998) in which the court held that "prejudice to the defendant as a result of delay in prosecution is required
before a case may be dismissed pursuant to local rules implementing Rule of Judicial Administration 1901"
Rule of Judicial Administration 1901(b) has been amended to accommodate the new rule of civil procedure. The
general policy of the prompt disposition of matters set forth in subdivision (a) of that rule continues to be applicable.
11 Inactive Cases
The purpose of Rule 230.2 is to eliminate inactive cases from the judicial system. The process is initiated by the
court. After giving notice of intent to terminate an action for inactivity, the course of the procedure is with the parties.
If the parties do not wish to pursue the case, they will take no action and "the Prothonotary shall enter an order as of
course terminating the matter with prejudice for failure to prosecute " If a parry wishes to pursue the matter, he or she
will file a notice of intention to proceed and the action shall continue.
a. Where the action has been terminated
If the action is terminated when a party believes that it should not have been terminated, that party may proceed
under Rule230(d) for relief from the order of termination. An example of such an occurrence might be the termination
of a viable action when the aggrieved party did not receive the notice of intent to terminate and thus did not timely file
the notice of intention to proceed.
The timing of the filing of the petition to reinstate the action is important. If the petition is filed within thirty days of
the entry of the order of termination on the docket, subdivision (d)(2) provides that the court must grant the petition and
reinstate the action. If the petition is filed later than the thirty-day period, subdivision (d)(3) requires that the plaintiff
must make a show in to the court that the petition was promptly filed and that there is a reasonable explanation or
legitimate excuse both for the failure to file the notice of intention to proceed prior to the entry of the order of
termination on the docket and for the failure to file the petition within the thirty-day period under subdivision (d)(2).
B. Where the action has not been terminated
An action which has not been terminated but which continues upon the filing of a notice of intention to proceed may
have been the subject of inordinate delay. In such an instance, the aggrieved party may pursue the remedy of a
common law non pros which exits independently of termination under Rule 230.2.

done, omitted, or suffered to be done by such other party prior to the date hereof; except

way affect any cause of action in absolute divorce which either party may have against
the other.
12. REPRESENTATION AS TO NO DEBTS. The parties hereto mutually represent

made full disclosure of the assets and income sources owned, controlled, or enjoyed by
either of them and that neither party hereto has withheld any financial information from
the other. Each of the parties represents that they have reviewed such information, as
well as the law of Pennsylvania as it relates to their rights, obligations, and claims arising
out of their marriage and of any divorce action which has or may be filed between the
parties with an attorney of their choice, or had the opportunity to review such matters
with an attorney of their choice and voluntarily decide not to do so. Further, the parties
each acknowledge that they are aware that they have the right to compel the other party
to provide full financial information about all assets owned by either party and all liabilities
owned by either party and have the right to have a court force such disclosure in a divorce
action. Being aware of those rights, the parties expressly waive the right to further
disclosure or discovery regarding marital assets, liabilities, incomes, and finances and
agree that they are satisfied with their understanding of their legal rights and obligations.
Being so aware and satisfied, the parties mutually accept the terms and provisions of this
agreement in full satisfaction of any and all rights or obligations arising of their marital
status or the divorce action now pending or to be filed between them.

agreement.
15. BREACH. In the event that any of the provisions of this agreement are
breached or violated by either of the parties, the other party shall be entitled to enforce

rights. In the event that such action is commenced by one of the parties and the other
party is found to have breached or violated any of the terms and provisions of this
