COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF
CUMBERLAND COUNTY,
PENNSYLVANIA
VS.
GERALDINE Do MCELWEE
Defendant
CIVIL ACTION-LAW
NO. 04-4570
JURY TRIAL DEMANDED
PRELIMINARY OBJECTIONS OF DEFENDANT.
GERALDINE D. MCELWEE. TO THE COMPLAINT OF
PLAINTIFF. WILLIAM F. CLEARY
AND NOW, comes Defendant, Geraldine D. McElwee ("'Defendant"), by and through her
counsel, Margolis Edelstein, and preliminary objects to the Complaint of Plaintiff, William F.
Cleary ("Plaintiff'), and avers the following in support thereof:
1. Plaintiff initiated the above-captioned personal injury action with the filing of a
Praecipe for Writ of Summons on or about September 13, 2004.
2. Plaintiffthen filed a Complaint on or about December 9,2004. A copy of Plaintiffs
Complaint is attached hereto, made a part hereof, and marked as Exhibit "A."
3. In his Complaint, Plaintiff seeks monetary damages relating to injuries suffered in a
two (2) car motor vehicle accident, allegedly caused by the negligence of Defendant.
4. Defendant files the following Preliminary Objections to Plaintiffs Complaint,
pursuant to Pa. RoC.P. No. 1028(a)o
I. PRELIMINARY OBJECTION, PURSUANT TO PA. R.c.P. NO. 1028(a)(3),
INSUFFICIENT SPECIFICITY IN A PLEADING.
5. The averments contained in Paragraphs 1 through 4 are incorporated by reference
herein as if set forth in their entirety.
6. In his Complaint, Plaintiff uses the language "which include, but are not limited to" in
describing both his injuries and his damages. See Exhibit "A," Paragraphs 11 and 15.
7. In addition, in describing his alleged injuries from th(~ two (2) car motor vehicle
accident, Plaintiff uses the catch-all language "other injuries" in describing the extent of his
injuries. See Exhibit "A," Paragraph 11(d).
8. Defendant preliminarily objects to the use of such catch-all language in describing
Plaintiffs injuries and damages, because it does not adequately inform the Defendant as to the
true measure of Plaintiffs injuries and damages.
9. Pennsylvania is a fact pleading jurisdiction, and Pa. R.C.P. No. 1019(a), requires that
the material facts upon which a cause of action is based properly set forth.
10. A Complaint must: (1) notify the defendant of what plaintiffs claim is and the
grounds upon which is rests; and (2) formulate the issue by summarizing those facts essential to
support the claim. Baker v. Rangos, 229 Pa. Super. 333, 324 A.2d 498 (1974).
11. In addition to the fact that the catch-all language mentioned above is insufficient
under Pennsylvania law, such language could allow Plaintiff to amend his Complaint after the
running of the applicable statute of limitations to add new claims of injuries and damages.
12. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has emphasized the paramount importance of
specificity in a complaint to avoid a later amplification of generiG terms in Connor v. Allegheny
General Hospital, 501 Pa. 306,461 A.2d 600 (1983).
WHEREFORE, Defendant, Geraldine D. McElwee, respectfully requests that this
Honorable Court issue an Order striking the above-mentioned catch-all language from
Paragraphs 11, II(d), and 15 of Plaintiffs Complaint.
m. PRELIMINARY OBJECTION, PURSUANT TO PA. R.C.P. NO. 1028(a)(2),
FAILURE OF A PLEADING TO CONFORM TO LA VV OR RULE OF COURT.
13. The averments contained in Paragraphs 1 through 12, are incorporated by reference
herein as if set forth in their entirety.
14. Plaintiffs Complaint contains an attorney Verification, rather than being verified by
the Plaintiff himself. See Exhibit "A."
15. A Complaint which is not endorsed with a proper Verification is subject to a motion
to strike. Berger v. City of Williams port, 12 Pa. D. & C. 4th 397 (C.P. Lycoming 1990).
16. An improper Verification of a Complaint must not be brushed aside as a mere legal
technicality, and may result in the waiver of rights by the pleader. Warren v. Williams, 88 A.2d
406 (Pa. 1952).
17. Pa. R.C.P. No. 1024, states in relevant part that:
a. Every pleading containing an averment of fact not appearing of
record in the action. .shall state that the averment. .is
true upon the signer's personal knowledge or information and
belief and shall be verified.
c. The verification shall be made by one or more ofthe parties
filing the pleading unless all ofthe parties (1) lack sufficient
knowledge or information, or (2) are outside the jurisdiction of the
court and the verification of none of them can be obtained within
the time allowed for filing the pleading.
Pa. R.c.P. No. I024(a) and (e).
18. An attorney may verify a pleading only in those cases in which the conditions
delineated in Pa. R.C.P. No. 1024 are present (emphasis added) Meder v. Integrity Real Estate,
18 Pa. D. & C. 4th 640, 641 (C.P. Synder 1992).
19. The Verification attached to Plaintiffs Complaint does not aver that Plaintiff was
without sufficient information or knowledge to sign the Verification, or that he was outside of the
Commonwealth and not available in time to file the Complaint.
20. In fact, it is clear from the Plaintiffs own Complaint, that at all times relevant hereto,
Plaintiff resided within the Commonwealth and, therefore, under Pa. RC.P. No. 1024, should
have been the signatory of the Verification.
21. Further, no Rule to File Complaint has been issued in this matter and, therefore,
Plaintiff cannot contend that his Verification could not be obtained within the time allowed for
the filing of the Complaint.
22. Accordingly, the Verification signed by Plaintiffs counsel is contrary to the express
provision ofPa. RC.P. No. 1024, subjecting the Complaint to a Motion to Strike as set forth
above.
WHEREFORE, Defendant, Geraldine D. McElwee, respectfully requests that this
Honorable Court issue an Order striking Plaintiffs Complaint for failure to attach a proper
Verification
