c k4f 35.1
4. The children are presently the subject of an Order for Custody issued April 28, 2010 by
the Honorable Albert H. Masland, following a conciliation conference with John J. Mangan, Jr,
Esquire on April 5, 2010, where an agreement had been reached by and between the parties
providing for shared legal custody and physical custody of the children. A true and correct copy of
the order of which modification is sought is attached hereto as Exhibit "A."
5. The initial custody action had been filed following Mother's departure from the marital
residence in early 2010 with the children for a period of ten days before Father even knew the
children's whereabouts. Mother returned to the household following the filing of the complaint but
prior to the conciliation conference.
6. Because Father sought to reconcile the relationship with Mother but preserve his rights
to custody if Mother ever took the children again, the parties had agreed to the entry of an Order
providing them with shared rights to custody.
7. Father now seeks a modification of custody based upon developments that have
occurred since the issuance of said custody order.
8. On or about November 3, 2011, Mother left the marital residence at approximately 11:00
p.m., this time she did not remove the children from the home when she left.
9. Father had no contact with Mother until she called Father on the morning of November
6, 2011, though she would not reveal her location.
10. Father still does not know Mother's whereabouts as of the filing of this petition.
11. Father has been in communication with Mother's mother, Mother's brother and
Mother's grandmother, and none of Mother's relatives know her whereabouts or who with whom
Mother is staying.
12. The children have remained in the custody of Father since Mother's departure, however,
Father fears that without an Order of Court granting him primary physical custody, Mother will
attempt to remove the children from his home and expose them to a dangerous and unstable
environment, while also cutting off contact between Father and the children as Mother has done in
the past.
13. Mother has returned to the marital residence while Father is at work and while the
children are in the care of their babysitter to see the children and to retrieve clothing and other
personal items.
14. Father has not seen Mother however since her departure on November 3, 2011.
15. The circumstances leading to the parties' separation involved Father's discovery that
Mother has been actively communicating with other men on internet dating sites and that as a result
she has been communicating and having in-person contact with men she has met online.
16. Father does not know the names or addresses of the men whom Mother has been
seeing, but believes that Mother is now staying in the home of one of these men.
17. Father fears that Mother's actions demonstrate that she is not making mature and
responsible decisions about her own marriage and safety, meeting men whom she knows little to
nothing about, and believes that Mother may expose the children to contact with these men, unless
the Court intervenes on the children's behalf.
18. Father is gainfully employed as a contractor and has provided a stable household where
he is completely capable of caring for the children's needs.
19. Father has a support structure in place to provide for the children's needs and to provide
for childcare while Father is working.
20. The parties' two older children Marlin, III, and Logan, attend Mooreland Elementary
School.
21. The parties' youngest child, Brody, is involved in the Head Start program through
Shippensburg University.
22. Any modification to the children's residence would in result in a disruption in their
educational progress and their overall stability.
23. Contemporaneously herewith, Father is filing a petition for special relief seeking an
Order prohibiting Mother from removing the children from Father's custody, and limiting Mother's
contact to supervised visitation until Mother's new residence can be verified and determined to be
safe, appropriate and stable.
24. The best interest and permanent welfare of the children will be served by granting the
relief requested because Father will be able to provide for the children's medical, educational,
emotional and physical needs on a primary basis in a stable, safe, and nurturing environment.
25. The best interests and permanent welfare of the child would be served by this Court
issuing an Order granting primary physical custody of the children to Father and limiting Mother to
periods of supervised visitation pending further Order of Court
WHEREFORE, Petitioner, Marlin C. Hassinger, Jr., prays this Honorable Court enter an
Order granting primary physical custody of the child to Petitioner/Father, granting periods of
visitation to Respondent/Mother, and granting shared legal custody of the child to both parties and
any additional relief as the Court deems appropriate.

??
the Honorable Albert H. Masland, following a conciliation conference with John J. Mangan, Jr,
Esquire on April 5, 2010, where an agreement had been reached by and between the parties
providing for shared legal custody and physical custody of the children. A true and correct copy of
the order of which modification is sought is attached hereto as Exhibit "A."
5. Since the entry of the aforesaid Order the parties had reconciled, married and resided
together until. November 3, 2011, when Mother abruptly left the residence.
6. Father discovered that Mother was involved in internet dating sites and believes that Mother
left the marital residence to stay with a man whom she met online.
Neither Mother's brother, her Mother or her Grandmother know Mother's whereabouts or
with whom Mother is staying.
In 2010, Mother previously removed the children from the residence and Father did not
know their whereabouts for approximately 10 days, and Mother did not return until the children had
been away from Father for approximately 14 days.
9. Because Mother had removed the children from Father's household in early 2010, prior to
the entry of any Order for custody, Father fears that without an Order granting him primary physical
custody, Mother may attempt to remove the children from the jurisdiction again.
10. Father has, contemporaneously herewith, filed a petition for modification of the underlying
Order as a result of the recent events seeking an Order granting him primary physical custody of the
children.
11. The children have remained in the custody of Father since Mother's departure, however,
Father fears that without an Order of Court granting him primary physical custody, Mother will
attempt to remove the children from his home and expose them to a dangerous and unstable
environment, while also cutting off contact between Father and the children as Mother has done in
the past.
12. Mother has returned to the marital residence while Father is at work and while the
children are in the care of their babysitter to see the children and to retrieve clothing and other
personal items.
13. lather has not seen Mother however since her departure on November 3, 2011.
14. The circumstances leading to the parties' separation involved Father's discovery that
Mother has been actively communicating with other men on internet dating sites and that as a result
she has been communicating and having in-person contact with men she has met online.
15. Father does not know the names or addresses of the men whom Mother has been
seeing, but believes that Mother is now staying in the home of one of these men.
16. Father fears that Mother's actions demonstrate that she is not making mature and
responsible decisions about her own marriage and safety, meeting men whom she knows little to
nothing about, and believes that Mother may expose the children to contact with these men, unless
the Court intervenes on the children's behalf.
17. Father is gainfully employed as a contractor and has provided a stable household where
he is completely capable of caring for the children's needs.
18. Father has a support structure in place to provide for the children's needs and to provide
for childcare while Father is working.
19. Father is willing to accommodate supervised visits with Mother and telephone contact
between Mother and the children, and submits that the parties live-in babysitter, Jacqueline Gardner,
or Mother's brother (the children's maternal uncle) Shane Marks, would be appropriate supervisors.
20. Ultimately, it is submitted that special relief is needed to ensure the safety of the
children, as Father does not know who Mother is currently residing with, or where she is residing.
21. Likewise, it is submitted that without the relief requested herein, if Mother removed the
children from. Father's custody he would be unable to locate the children to secure their return and
in the interim, Father cannot be certain that the individual with whom Mother is staying does not
pose a threat to the children's safety.
22. Moreover, if Mother removed the children from Father's custody, their education
progress would be unnecessarily interrupted, as the oldest two children attend Mooreland
Elementary School and the youngest child is enrolled in the Head Start program through
Shippensburg University.
23. Father believes that Mother would not intentionally expose the children to harm but that her
decision making renders her judgment calls into question the propriety of her decision-making.
24. Father submits that the children's best interests and permanent welfare would be best served
by granting him primary physical custody.
25. The prior judge assigned to this matter is the Honorable Albert H. Masland, J.
26. Father believes that the best interests of the children will be served by granting the relief
requested herein.
WHEREFORE, for the reasons set forth herein, Plaintiff, Marlin C. Hassinger, Jr., respectfully
requests that the Court enter a temporary order granting physical custody of the children to him and
directing that Mother shall be limited to periods of supervised visitation with the children for
periods of two hours on two days per week, pending further Order of Court, and such other relief as
set forth on the proposed Order of Court submitted herewith, along with any additional relief that
the Court may deem appropriate and just.
