JUSTIN G WEARY
Defendant
PRELIMINARY OB TECTIONS TO COMPLAINT -CIVIL ACTION
Defendant moves for the dismissal of Plaintiff's Complaint -Civil Action, and as
grounds therefore avers the following:
Failure to Conform to Law and Rule of Court
Pa.R.C.P. No.1028(a)2) and 1019(f)(h)(i)
1. Plaintiff filed aComplaint-Civil Action demanding damages in the
amount of $2,657.23.
2. Plaintiff alleges it is owed certain funds pursuant to a credit card
agreement but fails to attach a signed written contract between the Plaintiff or any other
party and the Defendant. Such a writing would form the very core of Plaintiff's case, but
such writing has not been appended to the Complaint, nor its absence explained, as
required by Pa.R.C.P.No 1019(h) and (i).
3. 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. Paragraphs 1-3 are incorporated herein by reference hereto.
5. The Complaint contains alleged claims for money owed, but fails to
specifically account for the purported sums outstanding and for the amounts of payments
made.
6. The Complaint fails to be specific as to the allegations of the amount due
and owing and to state specific services or goods purchased by Defendant.
7. Plaintiff fails to state specifically how Defendant was enriched by the use
of credit and fails to account for any payments made pursuant to a written agreement, a
contract implied in law, or a theory of unjust enrichment.
8. Defendant is entitled to know how he has been enriched by the provisions
of goods and or services and how payments have been applied to any alleged goods or
services provided.
WHEREFORE, Defendant prays that Plaintiff's Complaint be dismissed with
prejudice for failure to file a more specific complaint.
Failure to Conform to Law and Rule of Court
Pa. R.C.P. No. 2002(a) and Pa. R.C.P. No. 1019 (h) and (i)
9. Paragraphs 1-8 are incorporated herein by reference hereto.
10. The Plaintiff has failed to attach a valid written assignment from "the original
creditor" to any other entity, properly identifying the account alleged to be owed by
Defendant. Pa. R.C.P. 2002 (a) requires that all actions be prosecuted by the real party in
interest.
11. Defendant is entitled to proof that the plaintiff is the owner of the claim against
him. Pa. R.C.P. No. 2002(a) requires a claimant to trace in his statement of claim the
derivation of the cause of action from the assignor to permit the defendant to challenge
the plaintiff's claim that he or she is the present owner of the cause of action.
12. Plaintiff fails to attach assignment agreement as required by Pa. R.C.P. No.
1019 (h) and (i), which would prove that plaintiff is the real party in interest.
13. Such writings would form the very core of Plaintiff's case, but such writing
has not been appended to the Complaint, nor its absence explained, as required by
Pa.R.C.P. No. 1019(h) and (i).
14. The assignment agreement that which transfers legal right and ownership of a
consumer debt must be attached to the complaint so that the consumer can be sure that he
is being sued by the real party in interest and not subject to concurrent or consecutive
liabilities.
WHEREFORE, Defendant prays that Plaintiff's Complaint be dismissed with
prejudice for failure show that the plaintiff is the real party in interest.
Failure to Properly Verify Pleading
Pa.R.C.P.No.1028 (A)(2)
15. Paragraphs 1-14 are incorporated herein by reference hereto.
16. The Complaint is verified by the attorney for the Plaintiff who is not a
party to the proceeding, who has not alleged that the party is outside the jurisdiction of
the Court or why the verification is not made by the party.
WHEREFORE, Defendant prays that Plaintiff's Complaint be dismissed for an
improper verification as well as other objections raised herein.
Respectfully submitted:
