SPEARS, JR., Defendant NO. 2004-4962 CV CIVIL ACTION - LAW IN DIVORCE PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER AND MOTION IN LIMINE Sharon N. Spears, Plaintiff, by and through her attorney, David F. Tamanini, Esquire, files the following request for a protective order and issue preclusion based on res judicata and/or collateral estoppel. 1. The above-captioned matter has been assigned to Divorce Master E. Robert Elicker, II. 2. The master's appointment was sought by Defendant, and discovery was certified closed by the Defendant on April 19, 2007. (See attached Certification, marked Exhibit 1.) 3. The Divorce Master set a date for hearing expert testimony for October 1, 2007, and for other issues on November 15, 2007. (See attached Orders, marked Exhibit 2.) 4. The expert hearing was necessitated by an alimony claim and an earning capacity defense by Defendant. I r 5. On September 28, 2007, Defendant requested a continuance of the October 1 st hearing, with objection by Plaintiff to the continuance. 6. The Divorce Master granted a continuance of the expert testimony hearing to November 15, 2007. 7. Plaintiff requested a 3-party phone conference among the parties and the Divorce Master which was held on October 12, 2007. 8. During the phone conference, the Plaintiff objected to the Defendant's request to have the Plaintiff evaluated by Defendant's experts (Melinda Eash of Riegler Shienvold Associates for the children and parents, as well as by a separate vocational counselor and evaluation plus psychological testing by Kasey Shienvold, Psy.D.) on the grounds that discovery was closed and the evaluations requested should have been obtained while discovery was available. 9. The Defendant's requested evaluations and possibly testing of both the children and Plaintiff are related to the contra position of the Defendant on the Plaintiffs alimony request. Evidence on these issues is barred by res judicata and/or collateral estoppel. Please see below. 10. The Defendant seeks to disprove autism spectrum disorders of the children and the Plaintiffs mental health issues with his expert testimony. 11. During the phone conference, it became apparent that the Defendant had never requested expert interrogatories under Pa.R.C.P. 4001 et seq. from the Plaintiff. 12. The Divorce Master required that the Plaintiff, who intended to present evidence from the children's pediatrician, the Director of the special education programs at Cumberland Valley School District regarding programs for the children at school, the Director of Behavioral Health Rehabilitation Services at Stevens Mental Health Center 2 I `% (regarding the children's in-home services) and the mental health counselor of the Plaintiff, all must now provide expert reports, over the objection of Plaintiff. 13. The Plaintiff and Defendant had identified to each other the expert witnesses they were going to call, long before the October 1 hearing date. 14. The matters being inquired into by the Defendant through his experts, if permitted would lead to inadmissible testimony under the legal doctrines and principles of res judicata and/or collateral estoppel as these matters and issues had been decided after a full record hearing before Support Master Michael R. Rundle, Esq., on Plaintiffs entitlement to spousal support and her earning capacity. (See attached Order and Report and Recommendation dated March 29, 2006, to which exceptions were filed by the Defendant, but subsequently withdrawn, marked Exhibit 3) 15. Discovery should not have been opened and evaluations should have been denied by the Divorce Master, and therefore the court should prohibit the Defendant from obtaining and using any evaluations of the children and Mrs. Spears. 16. The requirement of providing written reports by Plaintiffs experts, when no expert interrogatories were sent, and discovery was certified closed by the Defendant should be overruled, and Plaintiff should be relieved of the responsibility of obtaining reports. 17. The Defendant's counsel was provided a full text copy of these motions prior to filing via fax. It is anticipated that he will object to all aspects of these motions. 18. The Defendant has indicated that he will continue the evaluations of the children until ordered to cease by the court. WHEREFORE, the Plaintiff requests this Honorable Court to enter an order granting the Plaintiff relief from submitting herself for evaluation by Defendant's experts, 3 A prohibiting the presentation of expert testimony on the grounds of res judicata and/or collateral estoppel, relieving Plaintiff of the obligation to provide expert reports, and suspending further testing or evaluations of the children of the marriage until notice by the Court's disposition of these motions.

Spears, Jr., who resides at 18254 Rolling Meadow Way, Olney, Maryland. 3. The parties were married on September 21, 1985, but currently live separate and apa 4. The parti s are the parents of four (4) minor children, Benjamin J. Spears, born Au ust 16, 1988, Mitchell B. Spears, born November 28, 1990, Madelei a R. Spears, born July 6, 1995, and Samuel R. Spears, born Septem er 22, 1999, all of whom reside with the Plaintiff. 5. On January 10, 2006, the Plaintiff filed a complaint for spousal support and child support. CD co 0 6. The Plaintiff is not gainfully employed outside the home. rn A ?? gym, 7. The Plaintiff was last employed in early November, 2005 part9C"§ by tCP Central Pa., a non-profit agency. °?° CP:7 -0 D n =>-r" 8. The Plaintiff was hired on February 28, 2005, to work a flexib 5 hoLW bi-weekly schedule at $9.15 per hour performing family servic66., 9. The Plaintiff was involuntarily terminated on November 3, 2005, for her failure to work the required number of hours. 10. Ali of the children are neurologically handicapped, each suffering from some degree of autism. EXHIBIT "A" 11. The oldest child, Benjamin, has been diagnosed as suffering from oppositional defiance disorder and undergoes counseling. 12. The Plaintiff has been diagnosed as suffering from anxiety, depression, and most recently attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. 13. The Plaintiff takes prescribed medication for her condition and undergoes counseling on a weekly basis. 14. The children receive behavioral health and rehabilitative services from NHS Human Services. 15. The three younger children have one-to-one interventions with case workers from NHS on a daily basis, Monday through Friday, generally from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. 16. The Plaintiff's presence is required for the intervention services. 17. The children are generally being treated for aggression issues and tantrum behavior. 18. The children require supervision to prepare for their school day. 19.The last child leaves the home for school at 8:10 a.m. 20. The first child gets home from school at 3:10 p.m. 21.The Plaintiff must periodically participate in IEP (Individual Educational Plan) meetings with teachers and psychiatric appointments for the children. 22. The Plaintiff s frequent absenteeism at work was due to child-related issues. 23. The. Plaintiff desires to remain available for the children in lieu of obtaining employment. 24. The Defendant is employed by the National Institute of Health in Bethesda, Maryland. 25. The Defendant has gross monthly income of $7,280.00. 26. The Defendant has a mandatory retirement contribution of $235.20 bi-weekly. 27.The Defendant pays $135.69 bi-weekly for health insurance coverage on the family. 2 28.

The Defendant's girlfriend shares common living expenses with him. DISCUSSION The Defendant has not contested liability to pay spousal support. This case is a guideline support case for children and spouse. Both parents must contribute to the support of their children in accordance with their relative incomes and ability to pay. Depp v. Holland, 636 A.2d 204 (Pa. Super. 1994). In determining a parent's ability to support his or her children, the focus is on earning capacity, not on actual earnings. Mooney v. Doutt, 766 A.2d 1271 (Pa. Super. 2001). A parent's earning capacity is that amount he or she can realistically be expected to earn under the circumstances considering his or her age, health, physical and mental condition and training. Riley v. Foley, 783 A.2d 807 (Pa. Super. 2001). An exception to this general rule, however, is the "nurturing parent doctrine" which provides that a parent who remains at home to care for minor children will be excused from working to his or her earning capacity. Hesidenz v. Carbin, 512 A.2d 707 (Pa. Super. 1986). The court must balance such factors as the age and maturity of the children, the availability of others who might assist the parent, and the adequacy of the available financial resources if the parent chooses not to be employed. Doherty v. Doherty, 859 A.2d 811 (Pa. Super. 2004). Generally the "nurturing parent doctrine" is applied in cases of pre-school aged children. Samii v. Samii, 847 A.2d 691 (Pa. Super. 2004). However, in the present case the four children attend school, but clearly are not what may be considered normal school-aged children. All suffer from neurological disorders related to autism. The Plaintiffs presence in the home until all are off to school is required to provide adequate supervision. The Plaintiffs presence in the home is required after school when the children are involved in intervention provided by case workers from NHS Human Services. Full-time employment is clearly out of the question. The Plaintiff does have some hours after the children get on the school bus until they return from school to engage in part-time employment. She did, in fact, make a good faith effort at doing so in 2005 when she obtained employment with a non-profit agency. She was permitted to work a flexible 45 hour bi-weekly schedule. However, because of requirements to attend to such functions as the children's psychiatric appointments, IEP meetings, and routine sicknesses, she was 4 ) ) unable to work the required number of hours and was involuntarily terminated. The Plaintiff herself has been diagnosed as suffering from anxiety, depression and most recently attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. She is undergoing counseling and is taking prescribed medication for her condition. Her counselor opined that because of her condition she is unable to perform either full-time or part-time employment. Taking all things into consideration, particularly the rigors of parenting four children with special needs while herself suffering from a psychological disorder, no earning capacity will be imputed to the Plaintiff. The Defendant has gross monthly income of $7,280.00. Filing his federal income tax return as married/separate and claiming the four children as dependency exemptions, he has net monthly income for support purposes of $4,474.00.' With combined net monthly income of $4,474.00, the basic requirement for support for four children on the date of filing the complaint was $1,599.00.2 This is the Defendant's support obligation for the four children. His spousal support obligation is $862.00 per month.3 An adjustment for the mortgages on the marital home increases the monthly support obligation by $312.00.4 This will be added to the spousal support obligation. The Defendant's total monthly support obligation effective January 10, 2006 is $2,774.00.5 This is reduced to $2,740.00 effective January 27, 2006 because of amendments to the guidelines.s All of the children are treated by a psychologist, Doctor Morales, and Benjamin receives counseling by Edward Horan for oppositional defiance disorder. Expenses for these services shall be included as medical expenses under Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-6(c). The court may require an obligor to pay a designated percentage of a spouse's reasonable and necessary health care expenses in addition to the regular periodic support payments. Psychiatric and psychological expenses, however, are not generally included as medical expenses unless specifically found to be so by the court .8 The Plaintiff is undergoing weekly counseling by a pastoral counselor. She was undergoing counseling well before the break-up of the marriage. A recommendation is made that the counseling expenses of both the children and the Plaintiff be included as medical expenses. An annual limitation may be imposed, however, on the obligor's payment of unreimbursed medical expenses when the ' See Exhibit "A" for the tax deductions. State and local rates for Maryland have been utilized. The Defendant's non-voluntary retirement contribution has been deducted from his gross income. Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-2(c)(1). Because the Defendant is the only parent with income, his health insurance premiums for the family have also been deducted from his gross income. Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-6(b)(4). 2 See Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-3 in effect prior to the January 27, 2006 amendments to the support guidelines. 3 See Exhibit "B" for the spousal support calculation. 4 Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-6(e). 5 See Exhibit "C" for the guideline calculation. 6 See Exhibit "D." 23 Pa. C. S. Section 4324. s Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-6(c)(1). 4 , ` F burden on the obligor would otherwise be excessive.9 A recommendation is made that an annual limitation on counseling fees for the family paid by the Defendant be set at $1,000.00. RECOMMENDATION A. For the period of January 10, 2006 through January 26, 2006, the Defendant shall pay to the Pennsylvania State Collection and Disbursement Unit as support for his children, Benjamin J. Spears, born August 16, 1988, Mitchell B. Spears, born November 28, 1990, Madeleine R. Spears, born July 6, 1995, and Samuel R. Spears, born September 22, 1999, the sum of $1,599.00 per month. B. For the period of January 10, 2006 through January 26, 2006, the Defendant shall pay to the Pennsylvania State Collection and Disbursement Unit as spousal support the sum of $1,175.00 per month. C.

The Defendant shall pay the unreimbursed medical expenses, to include psychiatric and psychological expenses incurred by his wife and said children as that term is defined in Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-6(c); provided, however, that an annual limitation on psychiatric and psychological expenses paid by the Defendant is set at $1,000.00. G. Effective with tax year 2005 the Defendant shall be entitled to claim said children as dependency exemptions for federal income tax purposes, and the 9 Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-6(c)(2). S P Plaintiff shall execute and deliver to him any and all documentation required by the Internal Revenue Code to effectuate said exemptions. Date Michael R.

Attorney for Defendant IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PA NO. 04-4962 CIVIL ACTION - LAW IN DIVORCE REPLY TO PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER AND MOTION IN LIMINE AND NOW comes Defendant, JAMES SPEARS, by and through his attorney, SHANE B. KOPE, Esquire, and files the following Answer and New Matter to Plaintiff's Motion for Protective Order and Motion in Limine, as well as the Petition against Plaintiff for Attorney's fee and costs: 1. Admitted. 2. Admitted in part and denied in part. While it is true that Defendant sought the appointment of the divorce master, it is denied that discovery was certified as closed in this matter. The Divorce Master requires that both parties certify discovery is complete before he will schedule hearings on equitable distribution. Both parties here never certified that discovery was complete, which, ironically, led to the Divorce Master's decision to allow expert testimony. After the Defendant filed the Certification attached at Exhibit one (1), the Plaintiff not only refused to give her consent to certify discovery closed, but also objected when Defendant filed a certificate certifying the same. Consequently, a discovery conference was held before the Divorce Master whereby he allowed both parties the opportunity to acquire experts and set a date for expert hearing, which, as stated, was for October 1, 2007. 3. Admitted. 4. Admitted. 5. Admitted. 6. Admitted. 7. Admitted. 8. Admitted. 9. Denied. Please refer to paragraphs fourteen (14) to sixteen (16) below, which are incorporated herein by reference. 10. Denied. The Plaintiff seeks to disprove autism spectrum disorder and Plaintiff's mental health issues as diagnosed by a school and church counselor. By way of further answer, the Defendant also intends to establish an earning capacity for Plaintiff by use of expert testimony. 11. Admitted. 12. Admitted. 13. Admitted. 14. Denied. The Plaintiffs position here is severally misplaced. Collateral estoppel cannot be invoked unless the party asserting issue preclusion satisfies five minimal requirements: (1) the issue presented in the subsequent action must be "identical" to the issue that was actually litigated and determined in the previous action; (2) there must be a full and final judgment on the meritsin the previous action; (3) the party against whom the defense of collateral estoppel is invoked must be a party to or in privity with a party in the first action; (4) the party against whom estoppel is asserted must have had a full and fair opportunity to litigate the issue on its merits in the prior action; and (5) the determination of the issue in the prior proceeding must have been necessary" and "essential to the judgment in that proceeding. Plaintiff failed to satisfy at least three of these five prerequisites for collateral estoppel. Plaintiff cannot establish that the issue of earning capacity in the support proceeding is or will be identical to the issue of earning capacity in the divorce proceeding; said proceedings are vastly different, operating under different guidelines and ruled over by different masters. Simply put, spousal support and alimony are not the same doctrines. The amount of spousal support/APL is determined by a mathematical calculation provided in the Pennsylvania Support Guidelines and is based upon the parties' monthly net income and child support obligations. There is little court discretion concerning spousal support. Moreover, the duty to pay spousal support ends when the marriage ends. The amount and duration of alimony, however, is a part of the equitable distribution of the marital estate and, therefore, does not begin until the divorce decree is entered. The amount of alimony is based on a list of factors delineated in the Pennsylvania Divorce Code and is discretionary with the court. Alimony, therefore, is based on an entirely separate set of factors than spousal support. So, unlike spousal support, alimony is a secondary remedy and is available only where economic justice and the reasonable needs of the parties cannot be achieved by way of an equitable distribution award and development of an appropriate skill. It is also worth noting that if we follow Plaintiffs reasoning here, the Divorce Master would be bound to decisions made by the Support Master, at least in part, when determining the equitable distribution of all marital estates. It is for these same reasons that Plaintiff cannot establish that there was a full and final judgment on the merits in the previous action and that Defendant had a full and fair opportunity to litigate the issue on its merits. Essentially, there was never litigation or a determination on Plaintiffs earning capacity as it relates to an award of alimony. Finally, it is important to note that Plaintiff is intending to present new experts to establish an issue that she alleges was already decided by the Support Master. 15. Denied. The reopening of discovery is strictly an act of discretion by the presiding judge or officer. An officer does not abuse its discretion if s/he exercises his or her discretion in a reasonable and equitable manner. By allowing both parties the reasonable opportunity to acquire experts, the Divorce Master was being fair and equitable in a manner that did not unduly delay the proceedings. 16. Whether or not to require both parties to submit expert reports in anticipation of trial is a matter of discretion by the presiding judge or officer. Rule 4003.5 of the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure clearly allow the Divorce Master this discretion. By requiring expert reports, the Divorce Master was clearly avoiding the prejudice of surprise. It is a fundamental, and often required practice to require expert reports in an adversarial proceeding in that it gives all parties the opportunity to adequately prepare for that proceeding. 17. Admitted. 18. Admitted. NEW MATTER 19. The Defendant incorporates the preceding paragraphs of this Reply as if fully set forth at length again herein. 20. Since the filing of this Motion, the Plaintiff has refused to give her consent to have the parties' children evaluated by Defendant's experts, which has, in turn, prevented Defendant's expert from completing her evaluation of the children. 21. Since the filing of this Motion, the Plaintiff is refusing to make herself available to the Defendant's mental health or vocational expert. 22. The filing of this Motion, along with Plaintiffs refusal to cooperate, will further postpone the expert hearing that was scheduled to occur on November 15, 2007; in fact, Plaintiffs refusal to cooperate is causing more delay than Defendant has in this matter, which, in turn, is causing Defendant to spend a significant and unnecessary amount of attorney's fees and costs. WHEREFORE, the Defendant requests that this Honorable Court enter an order denying the Plaintiffs Motion for Protective Order and Motion in Limine and further direct that Plaintiff (1) immediately provide to Defendant's expert consent to conduct all necessary evaluations of the parties' children, and (2) immediately make herself available for evaluation by the Defendant's experts. PETITION FOR ATTORNEYS' FEES AND COSTS 23. The Defendant incorporates the preceding paragraphs of this Reply as if fully set forth at length again herein. 24. For the reasons set forth above, this motion is patently unmeritorious, utterly frivolous and for the purpose of harassment. 25. Consequently, the Defendant will prevail on its merits. 26. Furthermore, the Defendant is entitled to attorney's fees and costs associated with defending this motion. 27. The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania has held that a trial court may award reasonable counsel fees to a litigant when the "litigant's opponent initiated the action arbitrarily, vexatiously, or in bad faith." Thunderberg v. Strause, 545 Pa. 607, 615, 682 A.2d 295, 299 (1996). 28. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court stated that, "an opponent... can be deemed to have brought suit 'vexatiously' if he filed the suit without sufficient grounds in either law or in fact and if the suit served the sole purpose of causing annoyance." Id.; see also Bykowski v. Chesed, Co., 425 Pa. Super. 595, 600, 625 A.2d 1256, 1259 (1993). WHEREFORE, the Defendant respectfully requests this Honorable Court to award him attorney's fees and costs against the Plaintiff.

Wife must report payments received under this Paragraph in her gross income for Federal and, if applicable, state and local income tax purposes. Wife shall be solely responsible for income taxes with respect to said payments.

And to insure Wife's interest in the share of the TSP account referred to in paragraph 17. This amount can be adjusted downwards by Husband each year to an amount equal to the remaining amount of spousal support and/or alimony payments due Wife under this Agreement and on account of Wife's receipt of funds from the TSP account. Husband shall provide proof of the continued coverage and any modification in the total coverage for Wife as he makes such changes. Wife may request proof of coverage in writing from Husband and he shall supply it within at least ten (10) days after demand therefore. 22. Waiver of Alimony, Alimony Pendente Uttar, spousal Support Except as stated above, Husband and Wife each hereby expressly waives, discharges and releases any and all rights and claims which he or she may have now or hereafter by reason of the parties' marriage to alimony, alimony pend6nte lite, spousal support and/or maintenance or other like benefits resulting from the parties' status as Husband and Wife. The parties further release and waive any rights they may have to seek modification of the terms of this paragraph in a court of law or equity, it being 12 02/20/2011 17:52 717-761-7572 KOPE & ASSOCATES PAGE 15/19 understood that the foregoing constitutes a final determination for all time of either party's obligation to contribute to the support and maintenance of the other. 23. Health Insurance Husband shall continue to provide for Wife all health care insurance provided through his employer during the calendar year 2011, under the Federal Employees Healthcare Benefit plans, including dental coverage, until March 1, 2012. 24.

Subsequent Divorce Delayed A divorce action has been filed in the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, under Docket No. 04-4962 Civil Term. The parties agree that their marriage is irretrievably broken and that they do not desire marital counseling, and that they both consent to the entry of a Divorce Decree pursuant to Section 3301(c) of 13 02/20/2011 17:52 717-761-7572 KOPE & ASSOCATES PAGE 16/19 the Pennsylvania Divorce Code as amended, and they both will sign any documents to obtain a divorce.

Breach If either party breaches any provision of this Agreement, the other party shall have the right, at his or her election, to sue for damages for such breach or to require specific performance. The party breaching this Agreement shall be responsible for payment of legal fees and costs incurred by the other in enforcing her or his rights under this Agreement or for seeking such other remedies or relief as may be available to her or him. 27. Bankruptcy and/or Reorganization This Agreement is intended by the parties to be a fair and equitable resolution of their claims and needs for financial resources, including resources for support and maintenance. The characterizations of the rights and obligations in this Agreement, and the payment terms, have been negotiated to reflect the financial circumstances of the parties. Regardless of the terminology used to describe the rights and obligations herein, the parties agree that they may not be modified or discharged by order of court, since discharge or modification of one party's obligations would have the effect of unjustly depriving the other party of, inter alia, resources for spousal support bargained for in this Agreement. If either party, notwithstanding the foregoing, seeks and obtains discharge of any obligation for payment or transfer of property, the non-breaching party shall be entitled, at his or her option, to seek modification of the terms of this Agreement so that the 14 02/20/2011 17:52 717-761-7572 KOPE & ASSOCATES PAGE 17/19 economic benefit to the non-breaching party shall remain substantially as agreed to herein. Without limiting the foregoing, the non-breaching party shall be entitled to a monetary award, an award of alimony pendente lite or alimony, or modification of any provision for alimony pendente lite or alimony. 28. Additional Instruments Each of the parties shall from time to time, at the request of the other, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other party any and all further instruments that may be reasonably required to give full force and effect to the provisions of the Agreement. 29. Voluntary Agreement The provisions of this Agreement are fully understood by both parties, and each party acknowledges that the Agreement is fair and equitable, that it is being entered into voluntarily, and that it is not the result of any duress or undue influence. 30. Entire Agreement This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties and there are no representations, warranties, covenants or undertaking other than those expressly set forth herein. 31. Modification or Waiver A modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective only if made in writing and executed with the same formality as this Agreement. The failure of either party to insist upon strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent default of the same of similar nature. 15 02/20/2011 17:52 717-761-7572 KOPE $ ASSOCATES PAGE 18/19 32. Mutual Cooperation Each party shall, at any time and from time to time hereafter, take any and all steps and execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other party any and all further instruments and/or documents that the other party may reasonably require for the purpose of giving full force and effect to the provisions of this Agreement (and within at least ten (10) days after demand therefore). 33. Laws Of Pennsylvania Applicable This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania which are in effect as of the date of execution of this Agreement. 34. No Waiver Of Default This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless and until terminated under and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The failure of either party to insist upon strict performance of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way affect the right of such party hereafter to enforce the same, nor shall the waiver of any default or breach of any; provision hereof be construed as a waiver of any subsequent default or breach of the same or similar nature, nor shall it be construed as a waiver of strict performance of any other obligations herein. 35. Severabilitv If any term, condition, clause or provision of this Agreement shall be determined or declared to be void or invalid in law or otherwise, then only that term, condition, 16 02/20/2011 17:52 717-761-7572 KOPE & ASSOCATES PAGE 19/19 clause or provision shall be stricken from this Agreement, and in all other respects this Agreement shall be valid and continue in full force, effect and operation. Likewise, the failure of any party to meet her or his obligations under any one or more of the paragraphs herein, with the exception of the satisfaction of any conditions precedent, shall in no way void or alter the remaining obligation of the parties. 36. Preparation of Agreement The parties acknowledge that this Agreement has been prepared by counsel for Wife as a convenience to the parties, and it shall not be construed against either party as the maker thereof. 37. Incorporation in Decree of Divorce This Agreement may be incorporated for the purposes of enforcement only, but not merged, into any decree of Divorce. The court on entry of the decree of Divorce shall retain the right to enforce the provisions and terms of the Agreement. 38. Headings Not Part of Agre ment Any headings preceding the text of the several paragraphs and subparagraphs hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.

Spears NO. 04-4962 CIVIL cnr- Defendant ?-<-z 'r- DOMESTIC RELATIONS ORDER 1. This Domestic Relations Order ("DRO") creates and recognizes the existence of the Alternate Payee's right to receive a portion of the benefits payable with respect to the Employee. It is intended to constitute a Court Order Acceptable for Processing ("COAP") under final regulations issued by the United States Office of Personnel Management ("OPM"). This DRO applies to the Civil Service Retirement System ("CSRS") and any successor thereto. The court has considered the requirements and standard terminology in Part 838 of Title 5, Code of Federal Regulations. The terminology used in the provisions of this Order that concern benefits under the Civil. Service Retirement System are governed by the standard conventions established in that part;. 2. This DRO is entered pursuant to authority granted under the applicable domestic relations laws of the State of Pennsylvania and in accordance with Part 838 of Title 5, Code of Federal Regulations. 3. This DRO relates to the provision of marital property rights to the Alternate Payee. 4. James V. Spears ("Employee") is a Member of CSRS. Sharon N. Spears ("Alternate Payee"), the former spouse, is the Alternate Payee for the purposes of this DRO. 5. The Employee's name, mailing address, Social Security number and date of birth are: James V. Spears 18254 Rolling Meadow Way Olney, MD 20832-1762 Social Security No.: See Addendum Date of Birth: See Addendum 6. The Alternate Payee's name, mailing address, Social Security number and date of birth r-' C -s0 are: Sharon N. Spears 1437 Apple Circle, Apt. 187 Mechanicsburg, PA 17055 Social Security No.: See Addendum Date of Birth: See Addendum It is the responsibility of the Alternate Payee to keep a current mailing address on file with the OPM at all times. 7. The Employee is or will be eligible for retirement benefits under the CSRS based on his employment with the United State Government. The Alternate Payee is entitled to a portion of the Employee's monthly annuity under the CSRS as set forth below. 8. This DRO assigns to Alternate Payee $1,500.00 per month of the Employee's self-only monthly annuity payable by the CSRS. When Cost-of-Living Adjustments ("COLA") are applied to Employee's retirement benefits post-retirement, the same post-retirement COLA shall apply to the Alternate Payee's share. The OPM is hereby directed to pay Alternate Payee's share directly to Alternate Payee. 9. If the Employee becomes disabled and commences a disability annuity under CSRS, then the Alternate Payee is entitled to the award as defined in Section 8, with no early retirement reduction, computed as though Employee had retired on an immediate, nondisabiiity annuity on the commencement date of Employee's disability annuity. 10. Payments to Alternate Payee shall commence on the date payments commence to the Employee. Employee agrees to arrange or to execute all forms necessary for the OPM to commence payments to the Alternate Payee in accordance with the terms of the DRO. 11. Payments shall continue to Alternate Payee for the remainder of the Employee's lifetime. If the Alternate Payee dies before the Employee, the Alternate Payee's share of the Employee's annuity shall be paid to the Alternate Payee's estate for the remainder of Employee's lifetime. 12. If Employee leaves Federal service before retirement and applies for a refund of employee contributions under the CSRS, the OPM is directed not to pay the Employee a refund of such employee contributions. 13. Under Section 8341(h)(1) of Title 5, United States Code, the Alternate Payee is awarded a former spouse survivor annuity. If the Employee dies before or after his benefits commence, the amount of the survivor annuity payable to the Alternate Payee shall be calculated such that she receives $1,500.00 per month as a survivor annuity. Such survivor annuity shall be increased with COLAs from the Employee's date of retirement or death as applicable. The costs associated with providing this former spouse survivor annuity coverage shall be deducted from the Employee's portion of the monthly annuity. Employee agrees to take all necessary steps to elect Alternate Payee as designated beneficiary for the purposes of establishing and sustaining such former spouse survivor annuity for Alternate Payee. 14. In no event shall the Alternate Payee have greater benefits or rights other than those which are available to the Employee. The Alternate Payee is not entitled to any benefit not otherwise provided by the CSRS. The Alternate Payee is only entitled to the specific benefits offered by the CSRS as provided in this Order. All other rights, privileges and options offered by the CSRS not granted to Alternate Payee are preserved for the Employee. 15. The OPIVI shall issue individual tax forms to the Employee and Alternate Payee for amounts paid to each such person. 16. In the event that OPM inadvertently pays to the Employee any benefits that are assigned to the Alternate Payee pursuant to the terms of this DRO, the Employee shall immediately reimburse the Alternate Payee to the extent that he has received such benefit payments, and shall forthwith pay such amounts so received directly to the Alternate Payee within ten (10) days of receipt. In the event OPM inadvertently pays to the Alternate Payee any benefits that are not assigned to her pursuant to the terms of this DRO, the Alternate Payee shall immediately reimburse the Employee to the extent she has received such benefit payments and shall forthwith pay such amounts so received directly to the Employee within ten (10) days of receipt. 17. In the event the Employee makes a one-time irrevocable election to transfer into the Federal Employees Retirement System ("FERS") before his retirement, then Alternate Payee shall be entitled to a portion of the Employee's Basic Annuity and/or a Refund of employee contributions under FERS calculated in a manner similar to that which is enumerated in Sections 8 through 12 above for the annuity and refund, respectively, and payable directly from FERS. Additionally, Alternate Payee shall be entitled to a former spouse survivor annuity payable under FERS and determined in a similar manner to the survivor benefits set forth under Section 13 above. Further, such former spouse survivor annuity shall be payable directly from FERS. 18. If Employee takes any action that prevents, decreases, or limits the collection by Alternate Payee of the sums to be paid hereunder, he shall make payments to Alternate Payee directly in an amount sufficient to neutralize, as to Alternate Payee, the effects of the actions taken by Employee. 19. The OPM shall notify the Alternate Payee and her legal representative when the Employee makes an application for any benefit payments or withdrawals from the CSRS. 20. The Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania shall retain jurisdiction to amend this Order, but only for the purpose of establishing it or maintaining it as a Domestic Relations Order, provided, however, that no such amendment shall require the CSRS to provide any form of benefit or any option not otherwise provided by the CSRS, and further provide that no such amendment or right of the Court to so amend will invalidate this Order.

JR 6290101613 CSE Agency Case Identifier: (,See Addendum for case summary) Order Identifier: (See Addendum for order/docket information) Withholding Limits: You may not withhold more than the lesser of: 1) the amounts allowed by the Federal Consumer Credit Protection Act (CCPA) (15 U.S.C. 1673(b)); or 2) the amounts allowed by the State or Tribe of the employee/obligor's principal place of employment (see REMITTANCE INFORMATION). Disposable income is the net income left after making mandatory deductions such as: State, Federal, local taxes; Social Security taxes; statutory pension contributions; and Medicare taxes. The Federal limit is 50% of the disposable income if the obligor is supporting another family and 60% of the disposable income if the obligor is not supporting another family. However, those limits increase 5% - to 55% and 65% - if the arrears are greater than 12 weeks. If permitted by the State or Tribe, you may deduct a fee for administrative costs. The combined support amount and fee may not exceed the limit indicated in this section. For Tribal orders, you may not withhold more than the amounts allowed under the law of the issuing Tribe. For Tribal employers/income withholders who receive a State IWO, you may not withhold more than the lesser of the limit set by the law of the jurisdiction in which the employer/income withholder is located or the maximum amount permitted under section 303(d) of the CCPA (15 U.S.C. 1673 (b)). Depending upon applicable State or Tribal law, you may need to also consider the amounts paid for health care premiums in determining disposable income and applying appropriate withholding limits. Arrears greater than 12 weeks? If the Order Information does not indicate that the arrears are greater than 12 weeks, then the Employer should calculate the CCPA limit using the lower percentage.

Multiple IWOs: If there is more than one IWO against this employee/obligor and you are unable to fully honor all IWOs due to Federal, State, or Tribal withholding limits, you must honor all IWOs to the greatest extent possible, giving priority to current support before payment of any past-due support.

Disposable income is the net income left after making mandatory deductions such as: State, Federal, local taxes; Social Security taxes; statutory pension contributions; and Medicare taxes. The Federal limit is 50% of the disposable income if the obligor is supporting another family and 60% of the disposable income if the obligor is not supporting another family. However, those limits increase 5% - to 55% and 65% - if the arrears are greater than 12 weeks. If permitted by the State or Tribe, you may deduct a fee for administrative costs. The combined support amount and fee may not exceed the limit indicated in this section. For Tribal orders, you may not withhold more than the amounts allowed under the law of the issuing Tribe. For Tribal employers/income withholders who receive a State IWO, you may not withhold more than the lesser of the limit set by the law of the jurisdiction in which the employer/income withholder is located or the maximum amount permitted under section 303(d) of the CCPA (15 U.S.C. 1673 (b)). Depending upon applicable State or Tribal law, you may need to also consider the amounts paid for health care premiums in determining disposable income and applying appropriate withholding limits. Arrears greater than 12 weeks? If the Order Information does not indicate that the arrears are greater than 12 weeks, then the Employer should calculate the CCPA limit using the lower percentage.
