The Complaint fails to provide proper documentation or accounting of charges allegedly made by the Defendant, which would support Plaintiff's claim of damages, such as a breakdown of charges, payments and interest, so that Defendant could bring a Motion for Summary Judgment based upon affirmative defenses such as the Statute of Limitations and/or Counterclaims. WHEREFORE, Defendant prays that Plaintiff's Complaint be dismissed with prejudice for failure to conform to law or a rule of court. More Specific Complaint Pa. R.C.P.No.1028(a)(3) 4.
