STEGER, Defendant : IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF : CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA : CIVIL ACTION - LAW : NO. 01-/qoe~ CIVIL TERM : CHILD CUSTODY COMPLAINT FOR CUSTODY Plaintiff WILLIAM R. STEGER is an adult individual who resides at 1330 Asper Drive, Boiling Springs, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17007. 2. Defendant KAREN M. STEGER is an adult individual who resides at 133 Esser Avenue, Buffalo, New York 14207. Plaintiff seeks confirmation of primary physical custody of the following children: Jacqueline Steger, bom August 8, 1986; Nicholas Steger, bom April 20, 1991; and Samuel Steger, bom November 3, 1994. 4. The parties hereto were married on May 13, 1989, in Buffalo, New York. 5. The parties were divorced fi.om the bonds of matrimony by decree of the Supreme Court of New York, County of Erie, dated March 18, 1997, and docketed to No. SF 1997-900224, a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference as though fully set forth. 6. The parties hereto are the biological parents of all three of the children who are the subject of these proceedings. 7. In January of 1996, the mother abandoned the family and left the father with all three children who were then 9, 4 and 1 years of age. 8. From January of 1996 through December of 2000, the mother lived for various periods of time in Buffalo, New York, the State of Maine, and for more than a year from 1999 through December of 2000 in the State of Arizona. 9. During the more than five years between January of 1996 and the date of this Complaint, the mother frequently went for months at a time without seeing the children while the father shouldered the responsibility of raising them. 10. In September of 1999, the father was transferred from Buffalo, New York, to Carlisle, Pennsylvania, in connection with his employment. WAYNE F. SHADE Attorney at Law 53 West Pomfret Steer Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013 -2- WAYNE F. SHADE Carlisle, Pennsylvania 11. After the father was able to purchase a house in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, he moved all three children to his current residence where they have lived continuously with him since that time. 12. In the nearly year and a half that the father has lived in Pennsylvania, the mother has never come to Pennsylvania to see the children. 13. On Friday, March 9, 2001, the father took all three children to the vicinity of Coming, New York, for a custody exchange with the mother for the weekend. 14. At the time of the custody exchange, it was understood that the mother would return the children to the same exchange point on Sunday, March 11,2001. 15. In spite of the fact that the father has primary residential custody under the aforesaid Decree in Divorce, the mother did not return 14 year old Jacqueline on March 11,2001, as agreed. 16. The father is concerned that, as soon as the mother has arranged for suitable housing, she will also refuse to return the boys from partial custody. -3- WAYNE F. SHADE 17. The father of the children is residing at his current address with the aforesaid Nicholas Steger and Samuel Steger. Also residing at the same residence is Sarah A. Majewski to whom the father is not married but who is the mother of a child by the name of Samantha Majewski, bom December 30, 1989, and of the father's youngest daughter, Savannah Majewski, who was born on January 24, 2001. 18. The father believes and therefore avers that the mother resides in a rented house with two of her adult sisters, their children, with approximate ages of four, four, two and newborn and with a boyfriend of one of the sisters. 19. The father has not participated as a party or witness, or in any other capacity, in other litigation concerning the custody of the children in this or any other Court with the exception of the aforesaid divorce proceedings in Erie County, New York. 20. The father has no information of a custody proceeding concerning the children pending in a Court of this Commonwealth. 21 The father does not know of a person not a party to these proceedings who has physical custody of the children or claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to the children. -4- WAYNE F. SHADE Allomey al Law 22. The best interests and general welfare of the children will be served by granting the relief requested for the following reasons: (a) The father has been the primary physical custodian of the children for more than five years; and (b) The vocational, financial and other personal circumstances of the father are vastly more stable than those of the mother. 23. Each parent whose parental rights to the children have not been terminated and the person who has physical custody of the children have been named as parties to this action. There are no other persons known to the father to claim custody or visitation rights to the children. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff requests an Order of this Court confirming his primary physical custody of the children and requiring the mother to post security for the return of the children prior to being awarded unsupervised partial custody of the children.

STEGER, Plaintiff V KAREN M. STEGER, Defendant IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA C1VIL ACTION - LAW NO. 01 - 1484 CIVIL IN CUSTODY Prior Judge: CONCILIATION CONFERENCE SUMMARY REPORT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CUMBERLAND COUNTY CIVIL RULE OF PROCEDURE 1915,3-8(b), the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report: The pertinent information pertaining to the children who are the subject of this litigation is as follows: Jacqueline Steger, bom August 8, 1986; Nicholas Steger, Bom April 20, 1991; and Samuel Steger, bom November 3, 1994. A Conciliation Conference was held on May 3, 2001, with the following individuals in attendance: The Father, William R. Steger, with his counsel, Wayne F. Shade, Esquire. The Mother did not attend. Mother contacted the Conciliator's office on Tuesday, May 1st to indicate she could not get a ride from Buffalo to attend the Conciliation Conference and she requested a continuance. Attorney Shade noted that he had served Mother with notice of this Custody Conciliation Conference in early April. Father also verified that Mother acknowledged to him that she knew in early April that the Conciliation Conference had been scheduled. The parties previously resided in New York and were divorced in 1997 at which time the court entered an Order giving the Father primary physical custody of the three minor children. The Father has enjoyed primary custody since the parties separated in 1996. Father moved to the Carlisle area in October of 1999 and had the three minor children with him. In early March 2001, Father arranged a weekend with the Mother for the Mother to exercise temporary custody with the minor children. At the end of that weekend, Mother refused to return the older child, Jacqueline, to the Father, and Mother has retained custody of Jacqueline since that time in spite of the New York Order that was previously entered. Pennsylvania has jurisdiction in light of the fact that the minor children have resided full time in Pennsylvania since October 1999. o Father desires a quick hearing in order to at least address the issue with respect to Jacqueline. Father also desires an order that would confirm the New York Order and Father desires the ability to obtain documentation from New York's schools with respect to Jacqueline's attendance at school since the Mother's actions of taking Jacqueline into her custody in early March. The Conciliator recommends the entry of an order in the form as attached. DATE Hubert X. Gilroy, Esquire/ Custody Conciliator{,/ WILLIAM R. STEGER, Plaintiff v KAREN M.
