2. The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are:
JEANNE A. SHEARER
422 NORTH FRONT STREET
WORMLEYSBURG, PA 17043-1114
who is/are the mortgagor(s) and/or real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described.
On 12/16/2005 JEANNE A. SHEARER made, executed and delivered a mortgage upon
the premises hereinafter described to MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION
SYSTEMS, INCORPORATED AS A NOMINEE FOR TAYLOR, BEAN &
WHITAKER MORTGAGE CORPORATION which mortgage is recorded in the Office
of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Mortgage Book No. 1936, Page 24. The
PLAINTIFF is now the legal owner of the mortgage and is in the process of formalizing
an assignment of same. The mortgage and assignment(s), if any, are matters of public
record and are incorporated herein by reference in accordance with Pa.R.C.P. 1019(g);
which Rule relieves the Plaintiff from its obligations to attach documents to pleadings if
those documents are of public record.
4. The premises subject to said mortgage is described as attached.
The mortgage is in default because monthly payments of principal and interest upon said
mortgage due 05/01/2010 and each month thereafter are due and unpaid, and by the terms
of said mortgage, upon failure of mortgagor to make such payments after a date specified
by written notice sent to Mortgagor, the entire principal balance and all interest due
thereon are collectible forthwith.

The following amounts are due on the mortgage:
Principal Balance $116,311.92
Interest $3,227.01
04/01/2010 through 08/24/2010
(Per Diem $22.31)
Attorney's Fees $650.00

Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an in nerssonam judgment)
against the Defendant(s) in the Action; however, Plaintiff reserves its right to bring a
separate Action to establish that right, if such right exists. If Defendant(s) has/have
received a discharge of personal liability in a bankruptcy proceeding, this Action of
Mortgage Foreclosure is in no way an attempt to reestablish such personal liability
discharged in bankruptcy, but only to foreclose the mortgage and sell the mortgaged
premises pursuant to Pennsylvania Law.
Notice of Intention to Foreclose as set forth in Act 6 of 1974, Notice of Homeowner's
Emergency Assistance Program pursuant to Act 91 of 1983, as amended in 1998, and/or
Notice of Default as required by the mortgage document, as applicable, have been sent to
the Defendant(s) on the date(s) set forth thereon, and the temporary stay as provided by
said notice has terminated because Defendant(s) has/have failed to meet with the Plaintiff
or an authorized consumer credit counseling agency, or has/have been denied assistance
by the Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency.
Defendants' application for assistance under Act 91 of 1983 has been rejected by the
Pennsylvania Housing Finance Agency.
File #: 249324
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands an in rem judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum of
$121,620.78, together with interest from 08/24/2010 at the rate of $22.31 per diem to the date of
judgment, and other costs, fees, and charges collectible under the mortgage and for the
foreclosure and sale of the mortgaged property.

6. Admitted.
7. Admitted.
8. Admitted in part and denied in part in that said Notice was sent to Defendant. However, denied in

17, 2010, and September 24, 2010. Defendant has cooperated fully with Plaintiff and in fact
Plaintiff has agreed to terms and conditions offered by Defendant to correct the arrearages in the
mortgage payments. Plaintiff has by its actions extended the temporary stay to foreclosure.
9. Admitted.
WHEREFORE, since Plaintiff has sent a thank you letter to Defendant for Defendant's continued
interest in resolving the current mortgage situation and curing the current arrearages in the mortgage
payments plus costs to initiate this action, and Plaintiff has taken action to cure said mortgage default,
Plaintiff demands that this Honorable Court dismiss Plaintiff's Complaint for Mortgage Foreclosure as
demanded by Plaintiff in its Complaint against Defendant.
