PENN MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE : ~ a COMPANY and TODD PERRY, c _..- ...{ Defendants ~~ ca ~ m,n CIVIL ACTION -LAW z ~ ~ -a rn V. ~ ~ cNn ° v FULTON BANK, 'gyp Tin ~" 3 o-r~ Additional Defendant Z o -- o ~.,~ ~ ~ o ~ IN RE: OPINION PURSUANT TO PA. RA.P. 1925 Ebert, J., October 25, 2010 - On August 2, 2010, after aNon-Jury Trial in the above-captioned matter, this Court found in favor of Additional Defendant Fulton Bank and against Defendant Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company (hereinafter Penn Mutual). Accordingly, final judgment was entered for Fulton Bank. Penn Mutual filed this appeal. DISCUSSION This Court previously filed athirteen-page opinion on August 2, 2010, which deals with the factual and legal issues presented in the case at length. This opinion is filed pursuant to Pa. R.A.P. 1925 (a) to supplement the prior opinion and more specifically address those issues raised in Penn Mutual's Concise Statement of Matters Complained of on Appeal. Each matter complained of on appeal by Penn Mutual is addressed in turn: 1. Nothing in Pa.R.C.P. 227.1 precludes this Court from entering final judgment for a party following a non jury trial. The rule articulates to the parties of a suit the requirement for the timely submission of a post-trial motion. Pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. No. 227.1 (c)(2), "[p]ost-trial motions shall be filed within ten days after ... the filing of the decision in the case of a trial without jury." This Court's decision, which included the verdict and final judgment, was entered on August 2, 2010. On August 12, 2010, within the requisite ten days stipulated by the above stated rule, Penn Mutual filed a motion for post trial relief. This Court considered that motion and Fulton Bank's response thereto and denied the motion. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has stated that "Pa.R.Civ.P. 227.1 requires parties to file post-trial motions in order to preserve issues for appeal." Lennart v. Cigna Co., 824 A.2d 1193, 1197 (Pa. Super. 2003}(citing Lane Entemrises Inc v. L.B. Foster Co., 710 A.2d 54, 54 (1998). By filing a timely motion for post trial relief, Penn Mutual has thereby preserved those issues it raised for appeal. Accordingly, no error of law has been committed by this Court. One cannot lose sight of the fact that this Court has been dealing with this case since February 2002. The matter has been rife with motions, withdrawals of counsel, numerous discovery issues, and motions for summary judgment. Frankly, at the end of the Non-Jury Trial, the positions of the remaining two parties were crystal clear to this Court. This Court did issue its verdict and enter final judgment at the same time. The purpose of this action was to expedite closure of this case and provide the parties with some finality. In any regard, this action by the Court has in no way prejudiced Penn Mutual. 2.

This Court did not err in granting summary judgment in favor of Great-West Life & Annuity Insurance Company (hereinafter Great-West) in the amount of $270,173.95 rather than $194,525.61. On March 29th, 1988, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania entered into an annuity contract with Penn Mutual, pursuant to which Penn Mutual would make twenty-six annual payments to Perry of $270,173.95 each, less any applicable taxes required to be withheld.l On May 20th, 1999, Perry entered into a "Lottery Prize Assignment Agreement" with Statewide Funding LLC (hereinafter Statewide) under which Perry was to receive a single lump-sum payment of $2,410,000.00 from Statewide and in return Perry would assign to Statewide his right to receive the then fourteen remaining annuity payments from Penn Mutual.2 In 2000, following multiple assignments, Great-West became the party entitled to the annual payment from the annuity contract.3 On January 20th, 2001, instead of transferring the annual payment of $270,173.95 to Great-West pursuant to a court order4, Penn Mutual mistakenly transferred the annual payment of $194,525.34 to Perry's account at Fulton ' Penn Mutual's Ex. 1, p. 4; Complaint, Ex.

Day 2 at 197-98. a Fulton Bank's Ex. 8: Order Approving Voluntary Assignment of Lottery Winnings, Oct. 21, 1999, ordering ("AND NOW, this 21 day of Oct, 1999, it is hereby ordered that: (1) ... (2) Statewide Funding, LLC, or its assigns, shall be paid certain lottery prize payments to which TODD A. PERRY is entitle; namely the (14) annual lottery prize payments, less applicable tax withholding, due to TODD A. PERRY on or about January 20, 2000 and on each succeeding January 20~' through and including January 20, 2013 each in the gross amount of TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED SIXTY FOUR DOLLARS ($270,164.00), said payments to be made to: STATEWIDE FUNDING, LLC ..."). 3 Banks Penn Mutual also mistakenly withheld Perry's applicable taxes on the $194,525.34, equivalent to the remainder of the $270,173.95, instead of crediting that amount to Great-West.6 Accordingly, this Court did not err in granting summary judgment in favor of Great-West in the amount of $270,173.95. If the federal tax withheld by Penn Mutual and credited to the account of Todd Perry has subsequently been credited to the account of Great-West, as directed by the January 20th, 2000 letter from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania Deparhnent of Revenue and acknowledged by Penn Mutual, then that amount should be credited to Penn Mutual and deducted from the $270,173.95 judgment. In short, the issue raised here by Penn Mutual is one of accounting. Given the torturous trail of the payments of these lottery winnings since 1988, it is hard to definitively say whether the required taxes were paid. Great- West was entitled to the entire sum of $270,173.95 from which the required taxes were to be deducted. Obviously if the taxes had been paid, it may be appropriate for a credit to be given to Penn Mutual. However, in balance, this Court has awarded interest on the outstanding judgment from January 21, 2001. 9.

However, on or about January 20, 2001, Defendant Penn Mutual disregarded the Order and violated the terms of its undertaking by transferring the net amount of the January 20, 2001 Annual Payment of $194,525.34 to Fulton Bank rather than to Plaintiff Great-West and transferring $75,648.74 to the United States Treasury to the account of Defendant Perry rather to the account of Great-West."); Fulton Bank's Ex. 4, 8, 9. Fulton Bank's Ex. 1. 4 CONCLUSION For the reasons addressed in both the prior opinion and this supplemental opinion filed pursuant to Pa. R.A.P. 1925 (a), this Court did not err in finding in favor of Fulton Bank and against Penn Mutual on all claims. Girard E. Rickards, Esq. Attorney for Defendant Penn Mutual ~eorge C. Werner, Esq.

PENN MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY AND TODD A. PERRY V. FULTON BANK APPEAL OF: PENN MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF PENNSYLVANIA • r n > 7M, No. 1415 MDA 2010 Appeal from the Judgment Entered November 15, 2010 In the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County Civil Division at No. 02-0980 BEFORE: BENDER, DONOHUE and OTT, JJ. MEMORANDUM: FILED: April 26, 2011 Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company (Penn Mutual) appeals from the judgment entered in favor of Fulton Bank following a non-jury trial in a suit begun by Great-West Life and Annuity Insurance Company (Great-West) against Penn Mutual and Todd A. Perry. Fulton Bank was added as an addition defendant by Penn Mutual. We affirm. We begin with a general overview of the facts of this case. In January of 1988, Mr. Perry won over $7,000,000 in a Pennsylvania lottery drawing and chose to receive his winnings in the form of an annuity. The Commonwealth contracted with Penn Mutual to have that entity make the twenty-six annual payments of $270,173.95 to Mr. Perry. In 1997, Perry / J-AO9015-11 borrowed $1,000,000 from Fulton Bank. As security for the loan, Penn Mutual was instructed to deposit the annuity amount into an account at Fulton, which was then transferred by the bank into Mr. Perry's account if he was current on his loan repayment schedule. Throughout the life of the loan, Mr. Perry did not default and the payments were transferred into Mr. Perry's unrestricted account. In 1999, Mr. Perry entered into an agreement whereby he would receive a single lump-sum payment in exchange for an assignment to Statewide Funding LLC of the yearly annuity payments. In 2000, Great- West became the entity that was to receive the remaining annuity payments. Various communications ensued that essentially provided instructions to Penn Mutual to send the annual annuity payments to Great- West. However, that did not occur. Rather, Penn Mutual mistakenly sent the payment to Fulton Bank and the funds were deposited into Mr. Perry's account. Great-West sued Penn Mutual and Mr. Perry and, as noted above, Penn Mutual added Fulton Bank as an additional defendant. Summary judgment was granted in favor of Great-West. Then, Penn Mutual proceeded against Fulton Bank in a non-jury trial. After two days of trial, the court found in favor of Fulton Bank and Penn Mutual filed the present appeal. In its brief, Penn Mutual lists seven issues for our review: A. Did the trial court err in its holding that the economic loss doctrine barred the claims of negligence, intentional -2- . J-A09015-11 interference with contractual relations and misrepresentation against a bank where the claims stem from the mishandling of money? B. Did the trial court err in holding that the bank owed no duty to the insurance company, where it instructed the company to irrevocably send funds to an account until advised in writing by the bank, then closed the account without advising the company and transferred the funds to an unrestricted account, from which the funds were absconded? C. Did the trial court err in ruling that several causes of action were waived because of a misjoinder of cases [sic] of action where misjoinder was neither raised by preliminary objection nor answer? D. Did the trial court err by ruling that the bank made no misrepresentation by its silence? E. Did the trial court err in finding that the bank did not induce or otherwise case [sic] the insurance company to not perform its contractual obligations to another? F. Did the trial court err in holding that there was no implied contract between the bank and the insurance company? G. Did the trial court erred [sic] by entering final judgment at the same time as the verdict? Penn Mutual's Brief at 3-4. In reviewing this case, we are guided by the following: Our appellate role in cases arising from non-jury trial verdicts is to determine whether the findings of the trial court are supported by competent evidence and whether the trial court committed error in any application of the law. The findings of fact of the trial judge must be given the same weight and effect on appeal as the verdict of a jury. We consider the evidence in a light most favorable to the verdict winner. We will reverse the trial court only if its findings of fact are not supported by competent evidence in the record or if its findings are premised on an error of law. - 3 - J-A09015-11 Employers Mutual Casualty Co. v. Boiler Erection and Repair Co., 964 A.2d 381, 387 (Pa. Super. 2008). We have reviewed the certified record, the briefs of the parties, the applicable law, and the two thorough and well-reasoned opinions authored by the Honorable M. L. Ebert, Jr., of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, dated August 2, 2010 and October 25, 2010. We conclude that Judge Ebert's extensive opinions are dispositive of the issues presented in this appeal. Accordingly, we adopt the two opinions as our own for purposes of further appellate review.
