Dear Tammie Sheaffer,
You stated in our telephone conversation on Friday September 4, 2009 that you were aware of a
flea infestation at 233 Walnut St, Lemoyne, PA before you moved out. You did not make us aware of
this before that date, and went so far as to unilaterally move our bed into the most heavily infested
carpeted bedroom. We began to receive small red bites concentrated on our feet, ankles, and lower
legs immediately after taking residence at this address on August 30, 2009. Tuesday August 1, 2009
these marks were identified by West Shore Plaza CVS senior pharmacist Phillip Moyer as flea bites. We
have treated the apartment with 4802 of Ultracide IGR and Adultacide, l6 OZ of NyGuard IGR, and 7
Hotshot flea bombs. This has drastically reduced the flea population in the apartment, but we are still
seeing some live aduR fleas as of the writing of this letter. You clearly have consdously provided us with
an uninhabitable dwelling. We will be expecting a rent adjustment fvr October 2009 to compensate us
for at least the 12 days, which we have had to endure substandard living conditions at your property.
Photos of the fleabites in question have been enclosed with this letter.

Tammie Sheaffer,
We have the following grievances with our rental unit at 233 Walnut St, Lemoyne, PA 17043:
(I) We are not recieving any heat from the gas boiler. This is the primary source of heat for our
dwelling, and that it should provide us with heat is implied in paragraph 12, line 3 of our current
lease agreement.
(2) One storm window in the living room can not be opened from the inside of the dwelling, and is
afire hazard.
(3) One window in the bedroom does not lock; providing an insecure living environment.
(4) Three windows in the living room do not lock; providing an insecure living environment.
We will withhold all rent upon the fifteenth day of these problems remaining unfixed.

Tammie Sheaffer,
I spoke with you in person at 1:30 PM on October 19, 2009 while you and maintenance man
George were at our residence at 233 Walnut St. Lemoyne. I told you that the ceiling in our bedroom
was leaking. You verbally aknowledged me. At 1:45 PM I allowed maintenance man George to enter
our apartment along with your girlfriend from Texas. They both viewed the leaking ceiling in our
bedroom . Your girlfriend took a picture of the leak with her cellphone. You were clearly aware that
the ceiling in our bedroom was leaking on October 19, 2009. If you or or one of you associates do not
begin to repair the leak in our bedroom ceiling by November 3, 2009, we will consider our lease null
and void. On this same day, a pane of glass was cut from a basement window at the same property.
This pane of glass is still missing as of the writing of this letter. This creates an unsecured condition
which renders our apartment uninhabitable. Until this window is secured, we will consider our lease
null and void.
A window above our sliding glass door has been missing since we took residence at 233 Walnut
St, Lemoyne PA. Before we took residence at this property, the hole where the window was missing
was covered with a'/4 Inch sheet of wood. It is only held in with four 2 Inch beads of light caulking.
This window covering could easily be breached by an intruder, and therefore creates an unsecured
dwelling. Such an unsecured dwelling is uninhabitable. Until this window is replaced, we will
consider our lease null and void.
The inner pane of a window in our bedroom has been shattered since we took residence at 233
Walnut St, Lemoyne PA. This creates a very unsafe condition which renders the dwelling
uninhabitable. Until this unsafe condition is fixed, we will consider our lease null and void.

ORDER OF COURT
AND NOW, this 27'h day of October, 2010, after Default Judgment for the Plaintiff and
against the Defendant, and after trial before this Court pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1037(b)(1), the
Court finds that the actual damages suffered by the Plaintiff are $2,475.00. The Court further
finds that the Defendant's actions in breaching the contract by failing to provide the Plaintiffs
with a habitable property and breaching the implied warranty of habitability were not so
egregious or continuous in nature as to warrant treble damages under §201-9.2(a) of the Unfair
Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law, 73 P.S.C.S.A. §201-9.2(a);
Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED AND DIRECTED that Plaintiff is hereby
awarded actual damages in the amount of $2,475.00.
