BOX 8300 FORT WASHINGTON, PA 19034 2. The name(s) and last known address(es) of the Defendant(s) are: JANET M. AHRENS, IN HER CAPACITY AS ADMINISTRATRIX OF THE ESTATE OF JANE M. TURNBAUGH 18 DESHIBE TERRACE VINELAND, NJ 08360 THOMAS E. TURNBAUGH, IN HIS CAPACITY AS HEIR OF THE ESTATE OF JANE M. TURNBAUGH 147 JO LEE DRIVE MIDDLETOWN, PA 17057 UNKNOWN HEIRS, SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS, AND ALL PERSONS, FIRMS, OR ASSOCIATIONS CLAIMING RIGHT, TITLE OR INTEREST FROM OR UNDER JANE M. TURNBANUGH, DECEASED 915 HUMMEL AVENUE LEMOYNE, PA 17043 who is/are the real owner(s) of the property hereinafter described. On 05/19/1999 JANE M. TURNBAUGH and STEVEN C. TURNBAUGH made, executed and delivered a mortgage upon the premises hereinafter described to ACCUBANC MORTGAGE CORPORATION which mortgage is recorded in the Office of the Recorder of CUMBERLAND County, in Mortgage Book No. 1546, Page 589. By Assignment of Mortgage recorded 07/03/2000 the mortgage was assigned to PLAINTIFF which Assignment is recorded in Assignment of Mortgage Book No. 648, Page 305. 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. File #: 216969 4. 6. 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 06/01/2009 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 as of 12/17/2010: Principal Balance $60,207.69 Interest 05/01/2009 to 12/17/2010 $6,857.74 Late Charges $79.83 Property Inspections / Property Preservations $191.25 Non Sufficient Funds Charge $60.00 Escrow Deficit $4,471.82 Subtotal $71,868.33 Suspense Credit ($327.82) TOTAL $71,540.51 7 9. 10 Plaintiff is not seeking a judgment of personal liability (or an in personam 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 pursuant to Act 6 of 1974 is not required because the defendant(s) is/are not a "Residential Mortgage Debtor" as defined by the Act, having failed to provide Plaintiff notice of its acquisition of title. This action does not come under Act 91 of 1983 because the mortgaged premises is not owner- occupied. By virtue of the death of Steven C. Turnbaugh on December 12, 2008, Jane M. Turnbaugh became the sole owner of the mortgaged premises as surviving joint tenant with the right of survivorship. File #: 216969 11. Mortgagor Jane M. Turnbaugh died on February 7, 2010, and Janet M. Ahrems was appointed Administratrx of her estate. Letters of Administration were granted to her on May 12, 2010 by the Register of Wills of Cumberland County, No. 21-10-0381. Decedent's surviving heir(s) at law and next-of-kin isThomas E. Turnbaugh. 12. Plaintiff does not hold the named Defendant(s), Janet M. Ahrens, Thomas E. Turnbaugh and Unknown Heirs, personally liable on this cause of action. This action is being brought to foreclose the interest of the said Defendant(s) in the aforesaid real estate only, and the Defendant(s) has/have been named in accordance with the requirements of Pa R.C.P. 1144(a)(2) and 20 Pa.C.S.A. § 301(b). WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands an in rem judgment against the Defendant(s) in the sum of $71,540.51, together with interest, costs, fees, and charges collectible under the mortgage including but not limited to attorneys fees and costs, and for the foreclosure and sale of the mortgaged property.
