WEBB, husband and wife, Plaintiffs IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA CIVIL ACTION - LAW vs. NO. 2002-00109-P SMITH-LAND AND IMPROVEMENT CORPORATION, Defendant JURY TRIAL DEMANDED CIVIL COMPLAINT I. Plaintiffs Robert W. and Kristina M. Webb, husband and wife, are adult individuals residing at 191 Meadow Lane, Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. 2. Defendant Smith-Land and Improvement Corporation ("Smith") is a corporation duly organized under the laws of Pennsylvania, with a place of business located at 845 Route 15 North, Dillsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania and at all times hereto was engaged in the business of storing personal property. 3. Defendant Smith is now, at all times relevant hereto was, engaged in the warehouse business in the County of York, State of Pennsylvania, at the following address: 845 Route 15 North, Dillsburg, York County, Pennsylvania. 4. On or about July 10, 1999, Plaintiffs, as the owners, delivered to Defendant Smith, among other property, the merchandise listed hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein by reference. 5. The reasonable value of the merchandise at the time it was delivered for storage was $19,021.94. Document #: 206965.1 6. Under the Warehouse Contract entered into between the Plaintiffs and Defendant Smith (attached hereto as Exhibit "8"), Defendant Smith undertook to exercise reasonable care with respect to goods, as required by law, and Plaintiffs agreed to pay the storage and handling charges. 7. On January 22, 2000, Plaintiffs discovered that the property stored at Defendant Smith's storage unit had sustained water damage; the property was so extensively damaged that it could not be sold or restored. COUNT I Plaintiffs v. Defendant Smith-Land and Improvement Corporation 8. Paragraphs I through 7 hereof are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth. 9. The damage to the merchandise was caused by the following acts of negligence by Defendant Smith that, separately or concurrently, were the proximate cause of the damage: (a) Constructing and/or maintaining a warehouse with storage facilities in an area where groundwater, or other sources of water, accumulate during and after heavy rains, or at other times, when Defendant knew or should have known of this condition; (b) Improperly and inadequately constructing and/or maintaining a warehouse that allowed groundwater, or other sources of water, to enter and flood the storage facility; (c) Failing to install proper draining system into the storage facility, although Defendant knew or should have known that groundwater, or other sources of water, could remain in the storage area by such failure; (d) Failing to install waterproof doors between the storage area and the area leading into the storage facility, although Defendant knew or should have known that groundwater, or other sources of water, could enter the storage area by such failure; - 2 - Document #: 206965.1 (e) Failing to keep a watch person at the warehouse in order to guard against the premises being flooded when it was raining and/or snowing or when rain and/or snow was imminent, when Defendant knew or should have known that heavy rains and/or snow created an immediate hazard of flooding the storage area; (f) Storing Plaintiffs' merchandise in the storage area when Defendant knew or should have known that it would be seriously damaged if exposed to water; (g) Failing to remove Plaintiffs' merchandise from the storage area when Defendant knew or should have known that heavy rains and/or snow were imminent and would probably flood the storage area; (h) Failing to install discharge pressure pumps of sufficient capacity to expel the wall of the floodwaters entering the storage area; and (i) Failing to erect bulwarks or other devices to prevent water from entering the storage area. 10. Plaintiffs immediately did everything possible to restore the merchandise to its former condition. 11. Despite Plaintiffs' attempts at restoration, the goods were so extensively damaged that they could not be sold or restored. 12. By reason of the above, Plaintiffs have been damaged in the sum of $19,021.94. Such amount represents the costs of the goods, the expenses of restoration and other expenses incurred by Plaintiffs. 13. Although a demand has been made on Defendant for the damages set forth above, Defendant has refused to pay such damages or any part of them. WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs Robert and Kristina Webb demand judgment in their favor and against Defendant Smith-Land and Improvement Corporation, for the damages, which fall within - 3 - Document #: 206965. J the limits for compulsory arbitration in Cumberland County, together with costs, interest, and/or damages for delay against said Defendant as allowed by law. COUNT II Plaintiffs v. Defendant Smith-Land and Improvement Corporation 14. Paragraphs I through 13 hereof are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth. 15. Plaintiffs performed their own obligations in the terms of the contract, and all conditions precedent to Plaintiffs' right of action for Defendant's breach of contract have occurred or been performed. 16. The basis of Plaintiffs' above Count II is Defendant's breach of contract, specifically the failure to exercise reasonable care with respect to the storage of Plaintiffs' goods. WHEREfORE, Plaintiffs Robert and Kristina Webb demand judgment in their favor and against Defendant Smith-Land and Improvement Corporation, for the damages, which fall within the limits for compulsory arbitration in Cumberland County, together with costs, interest, and/or damages for delay against said Defendant as allowed by law.

For us, going through the process of building a $225,000 new home was challenging enough-and then to find your home's contents ruined when it came time to move in was very disheartening. My husband and I would appreciate your prompt attention to this matter, and to the fixing of the storage unit so that this does not happen again to some other family. Please feel free to contact any of the people I have provided letters or quotes from. I hope we can come to a closure of this matter without taking legal action. Thank you for your time.
