PETITION FOR SPECIAL RELIEF
TO ENFORCE CUSTODY ORDER
AND NOW comes Plaintiff Tina Renninger by and through her attorney Susan K.
Pickford, Esq. and requests this court to enforce the current custody order and order
special relief pending hearing and sets forth the following in support thereof:
1. On or about August 30, 2004, a Stipulated Custody Agreement was signed by the
parties and witnessed in the above captioned case providing for Mother to have primary
physical custody of the three minor children. (See Attached "A")
2. On or about September 16, 2004, the Stipulation was made an Order of Court at the
above captioned docket. (See Attached "B")
3. On or about December of 2005, the middle child, Paige Renninger, began to
temporarily reside with Father due to his scheduling ability to handle a medical issue with
that child. The other two children remained with Mother.
4. On or about July of 2006, in response to coercion and emotional duress brought about
by Father, the three minor children decided to split their time evenly between Mother and
Father for the remainder of the summer.
5. Father petitioned Domestic Relations for reduction in child support as a result of the
new custody arrangement.
6. On or about August 27, 2006 the minor children desired to return to Mother's home as
their primary residence for the duration of the school year. Upon hearing of this, Father
engaged in fits of anger, emotional blackmail and further coercion toward the minor
children in an attempt to retain the split custody arrangement.
7. No motions regarding custody are presently pending before this court.
8. Father is in violation of the current custody order in that he refuses to allow the
children to return to Mother's home as their primary residence.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff/Petitioner respectfully requests this Honorable Court to
enforce the current custody order and order the immediate return of the children to her as
their primary custodian pending hearing on this matter or until further order of court.

CIVIL ACTION - CUSTODY/DIVORCE
RESPONSE AND COUNTER-PETITION TO MODIFY CUSTODY ORDER
AND NOW comes Defendant Gary Renninger by and through his attorney Shane
B. Kope, Esq. and requests the court deny the Petition to enforce the custody order and
modify the custody order as follows:
Response to Petition to Enforce Custody Order
1. Admitted. By way of further answer, said Agreement provided for Gary
Renninger (hereinafter "Father") to have visitation of Erin Lynn Renninger, Paige Marie
Renninger, and Lydya Jane Renninger (hereinafter the "children").
2. Admitted.
3. Admitted in part; denied in part. The middle child, Paige Renninger, did in fact
reside with Father due to his ability to treat her medical issue. It is denied that the other
two children remained solely with Tina Renninger (hereinafter "Mother"). Specifically,
the other two children continued to spend time with Father per the custody arrangement
and outside of the custody arrangement.
4. Admitted in part; denied in part. It is admitted that the children decided to split
their time evenly between Mother and Father. It is specifically denied that the parties'
children made any decision as the result of action by Father. On the contrary, the
children made that decision of their own free will. It is further denied that Father acted
in any manner that would be considered consistent with coercion and emotional duress.
5. Admitted in part; denied in part. It is admitted Father petitioned Domestic
Relations for a reduction in child support. It is specifically denied that he did so solely
as result of the new custody arrangement. On the contrary, Father petitioned for a
reduction in child support because Mother was now working full-time and had an
increased income, the mortgage payment was not being credited in accordance with the
manner of payment by the parties, and the custody arrangement had been altered at
the children's request.
6. Denied. It is specifically denied that the children desired to return to Mother's
home as their primary residence at this time. On the contrary, the children wanted to
continue the de facto custody arrangement that had evolved during the summer. It is
specifically denied that Father engaged in fits of anger, emotional blackmail and further
coercion toward the children to this end. On the contrary, Father unequivocally
expressed to the children that it was their choice if they wanted to continue with the split
custody arrangement. Further, the children, being of 17, 15, and 12 years of age,
unequivocally expressed their desire to continue splitting their time evenly between
Mother and Father.
7. Agreed. By way of further answer, no motions regarding custody were pending
at the time Plaintiff's Petition to Enforce Custody Order was filed. Enclosed with this
Response is a Petition to Modify the Custody Order.
8. Denied. It is specifically denied that Father refuses to allow the children to return
to Mother's home as their primary residence. On the contrary, it is the children's stated
desire to continue splitting their time between Mother and Father evenly. The
remainder of the allegations of this paragraph is a legal conclusion to which no answer
is required. To the extent an answer may be appropriate, all allegations in this
Paragraph are specifically denied.

RE: Renninger v. Renninger, Divorce °
Cumberland County No.: 2004-4571
Dear Attorney Kope:
The above-referenced case has been reassigned to me. I understand that Mrs. Renninger's
prior attorney has provided you with interrogatories, and thus far you have failed to answer those
interrogatories. Since I am new to the case I am providing interrogatories to you and labeling them
as Plaintiff's First Set of Interrogatories. Therefore, I do not expect you to provide answers to the
interrogatories that were previously sent to you by attorney Pickford. However, I do expect the
enclosed Interrogatories to be answered within thirty (30) days.
I have been provided with Defendant's interrogatories. Cumberland County Rule 4005-1
limits the number of interrogatories to no more than forty (40). Since your interrogatories number
up to ninety-one (91) plus sub parts they do not comply with Cumberland County's rule. I am
requesting that you limit your interrogatories to the appropriate amount. Once you have provided
me with interrogatories that comply with the Rule, I will see to it that my client provides ydu with
timely answers.
Mrs. Renninger is willing to agree to a 54150 split regarding physical custody of the children
on the condition that Mr. Renninger seek counseling and a diagnoses of his condition that causes
him to be verbally abusive towards the children. If this is agreeable to your client you may fax me a
proposed stipulation for me to review with my client.
It is my clients desire to sell the house and it is her understanding that your client also
wishes for the house to be sold. At this time we do not have a preference for any particular realtor
or agency. Please contact me to discuss any realtor that may interest you.
In the meantime, if you have any questions please do not hesitate to co t my office.
Very truly ya s,
MLM/ben

Patrick F. Lauer, Jr., LLC. Each party represents that he or she understands that, in the

knowledge, and after having read this Agreement carefully and fully, this Agreement is
fair, reasonable and equitable, that it is being entered into freely, voluntarily, and in
good faith, and that its execution is not the result of any duress, undue influence,
coercion, collusion and/or improper or illegal agreement.

financial disclosure of the other as an inducement to the execution of this Agreement,
