PL NTIFF'S BRIEF IN SUPPORT
OF ITS M TION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT
Facts
Plaintiff, DISCOVER B4NK BY ITS SERVICING AGENT DFS SERVICES LLC, by
I
the undersigned attorneys, respeItfully submits this brief in support of its motion for an order for
Summary Judgment. Plaintiff ex?ends credit for purchases made by customers who assent to a
credit agreement. In the agreem?nt, Plaintiff promises to extend a credit account to the customer
in consideration of the customer' promise to repay in full the outstanding balance due plus
interest incurred. Defendant, LU
Defendant purchased goods
payments in accordance with the
J ROI, entered into a credit agreement with the Plaintiff.
to the credit agreement. As Defendant has failed to make
it agreement on the outstanding balance, defendant is in
breach of contract.
Plaintiff filed a Complaint on or about May 21, 2010. Defendant filed an Answer, in
which defendant explains her fin?mcial situation. Defendant's Answer is insufficient as it does not
conform to Pa.R.C.P. 1029(a) wlp ich requires that a responding party, in a responsive pleading,
must admit or deny each averment of fact. Pa.R.C.P. No. 1029(b) states that averments in a
pleading not specifically admitted or denied are deemed admitted. It further states that a general
denial or demand for proof shall have the effect of an admission. Defendant has therefore
admitted every averment found in Plaintiffs Complaint.
By letter dated June 24, 20 10 Plaintiff served on defendant a request for admissions, a
request for production of docum$nts and interrogatories. By letter dated July 29, 2010 Plaintiff
sent a follow-up letter to defendant advising that responses to discovery had not yet been
received. To date, Plaintiff has not received a response to said discovery requests. The requests
for admissions are now deemed admitted pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. No. 4014(b). Defendant has
therefore admitted the following::, (1) Defendant applied for, was issued, received, accepted, and
signed the credit card at issue hetein; (2) Defendant used the card to make purchases, obtain
extensions of credit, and obtain crash advances; (3) Each time defendant used the Account,
defendant agreed to the terms of the Account; (4) Defendant received monthly credit card
statements and did not dispute any of the charges listed therein; (5) Defendant has failed to fully
repay the outstanding balance; (6 Plaintiff is the owner of the Account; (7) Defendant owes
Plaintiff the amount of money Pl?intiff seeks herein.
In further support of its claim, Plaintiff attaches hereto the Cardmember Agreement for
defendant's account. Plaintiff also attaches hereto copies of multiple credit card statements for
defendant's account, the last of which evidences the balance Plaintiff seeks in the within matter.
Plaintiff has successfully established the requisite elements of its claim, a contractual duty, a
breach of said duty and resulting damages. As there are no genuine issues of material fact to be
decided, Plaintiff is entitled to S?mmary Judgment.
Legal Argument
Pa.R.C.P. No. 1035.2 states that a Motion for Summary Judgment may only be granted
when there is no genuine issue of material fact as to a necessary element of the cause of action or
defense which could be established by additional discovery or expert report. Pa.R.C.P. No.
1035.2(1). A material fact for motion on summary judgment is one that directly affects the
outcome of the case. Fortney v. (7allenberger, 801 A. 2d 594 (Pa. Super. 2002). Application of
this rule has held that summary jfudgment may be granted only in those cases where the right to
summary judgment is clear and free from doubt. Laich v. Bracey, 776 A. 2d 1022, (Pa.Cmwlth.
2001).
The purpose of the summary judgment procedure is to prevent vexation and delay,
improve the machinery of justico, promote the expeditious disposition of cases and avoid
unnecessary trials when no genuine issue of material fact is raised. A motion for summary
judgment shall be granted if the documents of record show there is no genuine issue as to any
material fact and that the movin$ party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Pa.R.C.P.
§ 1035(b); Allen v. Merriweather, 413 Pa. Super. 410, 411 (1992); Beasel v. New Blvd. Baking
Co. Inc, 410 Pa. Super. 591, 593 (1991). In making its determination, the Court must accept as
true all properly pleaded facts, a well as all reasonable inferences which might be drawn
therefrom. Thompson v Nason, 319 Pa. Super. 115 (1988), aff d 527 Pa. 330 (1991). The Court
must restrict its review to materiel filed in support of and in opposition to the motion for
summary judgment, and to unco4troverted allegations in the pleadings. Pa.R.C.P. §1035; Overly
v. Kass, 382 Pa. Super. 108 (198
The party requesting Sunimary Judgment bears the burden of demonstrating clearly that
there is no genuine issue of matelrial fact. Driscoll v. Carpenters District Council of Western
Pennsylvania, 370 Pa. Super. 295 (1988); aff'd, 525 Pa. 205 (1991); Allen, 413 Pa. Super. at 411;
Beasel, 410 Pa. Super. at 594; Hower v. WhitmarkAssoc. 371 Pa. Super 443 (1988). In response,
the nonmoving party may not rest upon the pleadings, but must set forth specific facts
controverting the movant's case. Pa.R.C.P. § 1035.3; Phaff v. Gerner, 451 Pa. 146 (1973). A
review of the pleadings as a whcde in the instant case reveals that Defendant has failed to sustain
its burden of presenting facts wh?ch contradict the elements of Plaintiff s claim.
Conclusion
Plaintiff has demonstrated sufficient facts to warrant summary judgment in its favor.
Once Plaintiff satisfies its burden, Defendant must demonstrate facts which would create a
genuine issue for trial. Phaff, supra. Defendant has failed to sustain its burden of presenting
facts which would contradict the' elements of Plaintiff's claim.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands Judgment in favor of Plaintiff and against
Defendant(s) for the sum of $5,071.73 plus court costs of $133.50, totaling $5,205.23.

Due to my financial difficulties,, Lucia Rai enrolled the Freedom Fidelity

to
Ln
They were the ones whom I put yself to be under the debts settlement program. This is na
about my bills, but the reasons a plaining why I took such action. My husband and I have joint
incomes, expenses, and debts. incomes are $400.00 per week after tax reductions from C&S
wholesale grocers as a full-time mployee and $140.00 per week after tax reductions from Holy
Spirit Hospital as a part-time employee.
My husband's, John Sailon, income as a full time employee at Hamilton Elementary School,
Harrisburg School district is $27 .00 per week after tax reduction. The total income my husband
and I make monthly after tax is (400.00 + $140.00 +$ 270.00) X 4 equal $ 3240.00.
The monthly expenses that we share are: mortgage -# $1535.00
Car loan , $508.58
Food cost -, $500.00
Utilities - $160,00
Car insurance - $65.00
Cell phone -? $130.00
Cable + Internet+ TV $106.00
Gasoline --? $200.00
Clothes -4 $200.00
The tot?l expenses are - $3404..58
??le ?6 a6 2377
The enclosed information clarifies our debts to the credit card. The total amount is $30601.00. If
we do the math of incomes and expenses, there is no way we can make monthly payments to
every credit card with high interest. We did not want to file bankruptcy; therefore we decided to
pay to $ 460.00 to Freedom Fidelity Management to handle our debts.
This way, I know that our debts will be paid off in 5 years. I myself go to the doctor a lot due to
my poor health condition, and visits to doctors every now and then also adds up to our monthly
expenses.

How We Calculate Periodic Finance Charges. We begin to impose P c Finance Charges on all transactions from the Transaction Date for the transaction as shown on your billing statement,
unless a transaction is posted to your Account after the dose of the billing x4iod in which it occurs, in which case we begin to impose Periodic Finance Charges on that transaction from the first day of
the billing period in which it is posted to your Account. We continue to imp se Periodic Finance Charges until the date you pay your entire New Balance, by making payments or receiving credits.
However, if you paid the New Balance on your previous biting staterent the Payment Due Date shown on that billing statement and you pay the New Balance by the Payment Due Date on your
current billing statement, we will not impose Periodic Finance Charges on new purchases, that is, purchases first appearing on the current billing statement. We call this the "grace period." There is no
grace period on balance transfers or cash advances.
We sort your transactions into groups of purchases, cash advances, and balance transfers and then further sort the transactions within each gawp by their Annual Percentage Rate. For example,
purchases subject to a promotional rate and purchases subject to a star rd rate would be separate groups. We refer to these groups as transaction categories. At the end of each billing period, we
compute balances and Periodic Finance Charges fa each day of the bil rig period for each transaction category. We use the following equation to compute Periodic Finance Charges fa each
transaction category:
(Average Daily Balance) tunes (days in billing period) tines
(Daily Periodic Rate).
(You may refer to the finance charge summary on your billing statement for these mounts.) Then we add up the Periodic Finance Charges fo each transaction category to get the total Periodic
Finance Charges for your Account. The Average Daily Balance is showr as zero W, because of the grace period, no Periodic Finance Charges apply to the balance in a
tran&Odion category.
How We Calculate Your Balances. We use the Average Daily Balam (including new transactions) method of calculating the balance upon which we impose Periodic Finance Charges. We compute
the Average Daly Balance for each transaction category by adding up the daily balances in a billing period for a transaction category and dividing the total by the number of days in the billing period.
We compute the daily balance fo each transaction category on each by fast adding the following to the previous days daily balance: transactions with a Transaction Date of that day as shown on
your billing statement, unless the transactions posted to your Account ter the dose of the billing period in which it occurs, in which case the transaction will be added to the daily balance as of the first
day of the billing period in which it is posted to your Account, fees that day and Periodic Finance Charges accrued on the previous days daily balance; and by then subtracting any credits and
payments that are applied against the balance of the transaction categoi that day. In calculating the daily balance for the first day of the billing period, we consider the "previous days daily balance"
to have been your balance for each transaction category on the last day your previous billing period.
