December 2009, Suzanne had checked the history on my computer (as
she did daily) and learned that I was looking at Porn. Suzanne
confronted me and I shared with her that I was sorry, ashamed and this
would not happen again. Suzanne called me every name in the book and
stated that she did not want to be married to me. After pleading with
her and being condemned shamed and abused for two days, I left the
house and stayed in a hotel. I spent time at nightclubs and bars. Suzanne
has not worked in the whole time we were up until a couple of years ago
when she stared doing part time work with permanent make-up and
hiding her money from the children and used family money for plastic
surgeries, Botox and countless lotions and potions.
Suzanne then emptied & 12000 out of the family bank accounts and
closed all of the credit cards and lines of credit. Suzanne refused to give
me back the money and for weeks as I begged her to go with me to
counseling. Her and my daughter started looking at town houses
disrespecting (bragging about where they would live) me. Suzanne filed
for a temporary protection from abuse order and was granted. I was
removed from my home What I did not know at the time was that
Suzanne was having an affair with Larry Van Loon which she later
admitted to me that she had an affair with (ex-husband & ex FBI Agent)
Larry Van Loon and was aiding her with legal advice and conspiring
with her to land have the PFA put in place and ultimately in jail. Suzanne
admitted to me about the affair, which came as no surprise to me at that
point because I knew based on the phone records (5 hours a day) that I
stumbled across while paying some bills. Suzanne told me Larry began
to call her Cell Phone in November 2009 after a chance meeting @ Giant.
Suzanne stated that Larry was reaching out to her based a confidential
matter he was having with his daughter Becky that Suzanne abandoned
18 years earlier during their very ABUSIVE (or so Suzanne says)
marriage. Just like she has abandoned our son Dylan who has special
needs as he has Asperger Syndrome.
Suzanne's story Sound was a complete lie and she knew she was caught
especially in light of the fact that Larry and Suzanne were calling each
other using blocked calls or *67 before the phone number for two
months when talking
Larry Van Loon should be the last person in the whole world to want to
have any relationship with Suzanne or to help. Suzanne Flathmann has
destroyed Larry's (just like she is doing to me now) name with anyone
that would listen for the past eighteen years. She stated in detail
thousands of time to everyone she knew that:
Larry was a total scumbag who thinks he is above the law.
Larry Van Loon forced her to get her tubes tied. I herd the following
100's of times while Suzanne and I were trying to conceive a family via
IVF several times and ultimately adopting our two children "What kind
of a man forces a 26 year old girl to get her tubes tied".
Suzanne reported that Larry Van Loon beat her on several occasions
because he was jealous.
Larry cheated on her. (Saying w she could taste lip gel from another
woman's lips on Larry's Private).
Larry shot and killed a dog right in front of her.
Larry always marked the tires on her car so he could see if she went
anywhere or moved the car because he was jealous
Larry kept a diary on her regarding phone calls to family and friends
and making notes about conversations.
Suzanne indicated Larry Van Loon told her that jean Van Loon (Larry's
current wife and local physician) has clear mental challenges /
depression and is not a happy person.
Suzanne also stated many times that she thought it was very suspicious
that Larry kept a gun in the house while his now deceased first wife was
suffering from depression and ultimately killed herself.
Larry was a drunk who put booze in his coffee in the morning and drank
in the closet during visits from her family, not offering any alcohol to her
family.
Suzanne bragged to me that while married she screwed her then
boyfriend (Chris Green) in Larry's bed while he was at work.
So, you could understand my shock and surprise after Suzanne shared
with me that she has been in a relationship with and now has such deep
respect for Larry and he has been supporting her as she had me
removed from the home she and I had built for 15 years. It is now clear
to me that for what ever reason Larry was providing support and legal
counsel to Suzanne for some time.
I do have phone records, (attached) which clearly show 10 - 15 phone
conversation per day between Larry and Suzanne. The calls would start
at 7:00 am and many nights from 9PM (when the Flathmann Children
went t to bed) till 1O'clock in the morning.
I phoned Larry Van Loon's Wife jean and shared the good news and the
affair stopped. Suzanne dropped the PFA / Divorce Pursuit and we
began to heal as a family. I have begged Suzanne to go with me to family
counseling (as I did for 18 years) so that I could work through the
betrayal and hurt I suffered through her affair with Larry. Suzanne has
OCD issues and has abused our two children (see attached letter from
Dylan Flathmnn to his mom Suzanne) and myself for many years. After
six months of individual counseling that Suzanne had been involved in
with Bob Beachy, Suzanne reported to the family that she did not have
issues with OCD that her counselor reported that she is simply an over
achiever.
After I shared this information with Larry's Wife, he has chosen to use
the law to silence me and after one 5 minute phone call to his wife's cell
phone, Larry contacted me to share that I was not to contact him or he
will file charges against me. I made a second phone call to jean Van Loon
a month later to share with her that Suzanne had admitted to me that
she and Larry had committed adultery. I was issued a non-traffic
violation from Jude Placey's Office for Harassment. I paid the $ 287 fine
and pleaded not guilty and the case was dismissed. As soon as I shared
with jean Van Loon about the affair between Larry and Suzanne, the
affair ended. Then Mrs. Flathmann immediately started sexual relation
with her father's Boss and The owner of Billet Manufacturing, Michael
Billet. In the attached testimony from the first DRO hearing Mrs.
Flathmann stated that she started sexual relations with Mr. Billet two
weeks after the PFA was served. I will prove that she started sexual
relations prior to any separation and / or problems with the marriage.
She was dining with Mr. Billet in April of 2010 while I was in India on
business, She also visited her fathers tiny welding shop which Billet
Owns on several occasions.
Fast forward to June 22nd. Suzanne calls Hampden Township Police to
report that I had struck her after she bumped he mouth (so she stated)
against my head as she was trying to hit me with her cell phone. I was
arrested and charged with Simple Assault and Harassment. I spent the
night in jail and was released on bail the next morning. Suzanne then
went to The Hampden Township Police Dept. to report that I had tried
to contact as (I needed a suit and my computer to travel for work) her in
violation of the bail order. I was rearrested and spent 24 hours in
general population in Cumberland County Prison. Suzanne had again
obtained a PFA citing the same instances she used before resuming
marital relation with me..
Suzanne upon the order being served immediately emptied all of the
quality furniture and accessories out of the Flathmann Residence. It is
clear to me that and Larry Van Loon conspired for months and executed
a plan for Mrs. Flat Mann to move across the street with her belongings
for one month and then move back to the residence without any of her
belongings to bait me into the argument which she then accused me of
harassment and simple assault. The phone records show for months
Suzanne calling Larry Van Loon and as soon as she hung up with Larry
she would phone either her attorney / DRO and so on and so forth. This
whole scheme was cooked because I would not forgive Mrs. Flathmann
of having and admitting to having sexual relations with Larry Van Loon
and remove marital assets from The Flathmann Residence. I stated in
the very first DRO hearing that Mrs. Flathmann had these affairs. The
judge just ignored every truth I ever told and documented her lies. This
has gone on for two years.
Mrs. Flathmann had me arrested for my phone calling her phone while
putting it in my pocket. Which was a 16 second aborted call on record.
She had me arrested for driving by her new house. She also had me
arrested for trying to see my dog. I plead guilty to all three charges at
one hearing and was sentenced to 18 months probation. Then had me
incarcerated in Cumberland County Prison for three month based on a
text message I sent My Daughter Alana complaining about her mother.
Mrs. Flathmann sent very similar text messages to our son Dylan on a
daily basis. Mrs. Flathmann would not even take the stand against me
during the trial instead made our 15 year old daughter the only witness
to testify against her father. After spending three months in
Cumberland County Prison Mrs. Flathmann came to visit me two days
before release while I was a trustee in the main lobby of the prison. I
was released on April 15 2010. Mrs. Flathmann spent 4 hours on the
phone with me on April 16th the day after release. When I asked how we
could be talking she stated that she was the one who makes the decision
whether I go to jail or not. The next day April 17, 2010, Mrs. Flathmann
was waiting for me at church to lead me to a seat next to her. She held
my hand through the service while weeping. After church she invited
my son and I back to her townhouse for lunch. After lunch Mrs.
Flathmann laid with me in her bed upstairs' while the children were
downstairs watching TV. Mrs. Flathmann and I were romantically
hugging and kissing and at one point Mrs. Flathmann showed me her
thong under wear and invited me to put my hand in her pants. We soon
joined the children.
Mrs. Flathmann phoned me a day later and shared with me that her ala-
non-sponsor told her she could not date for one year. I explained that
we were married for eighteen tears and probably past that point. I
asked if I could come over to discuss it with her and Mrs. Flathmann
stuck yet another knife in my heart by telling me that she already had
plans with Michael Billet her then lover. I got a courtesy call the
following day from Hampden PD stating that Mrs. Flathmann wanted to
re-implement the PFA. I later call the Chief of Hampden Township Police
and asked him how this could be possible. He stated she could basically
do what ever she wants with regard to me. He also stated that his
brother was in a similar situation and felt it was unfair.
Fast-forward six weeks I get pulled over and arrested for DUI. My BAC
was.06 however; I had pot in my system. The night before sentencing
after already spend two months in county for my first DUI and three
months early the same year based on a pack of lies and manipulations
from Mrs. Flathmann she sends a letter to Judge Oler (which is attached)
actually pleading with him to keep me in jail based on a list of
defamatory accusations against me all of which were lies which meant
they certainly was not proof.
Mrs. Flathmann has falsely testified during everyone of the DRO hearing
regarding her income. She is a certified permanent makeup artist and
earns & 150.00 per hour when she woks. Mrs. Flathmann has falsified
her earning to DRO for two years. Which has gone unchallenged by the
support master. I finally went to the IRS Criminal Investigation Division
and she will be investigated. Mrs. Flathmann once told me that Larry
Van Loon her lover and ex-husband thought he was above the law. It is
clear to me that Mrs. Flathmann feels like she is above the law and has
made a mockery out of a system designed to protect woman from abuse.
Mrs. Flathmann has been a stay at home Mom during both of her
marriages. Drives a Mercedes Benz has had 5 breast augmentation
operations and spent over a million dollars of Mr. Flathmann's earnings
on her self and remolding the Flathmann home compulsively. I think it
is time for Mrs. Flathmann to be held accountable.
So,
I am now raising our mentally disabled child alone with no job and $
20K in debts for legal, fines and costs. Mrs. Flathmann earned with the $
17000 in Alimony and Child support over $ 40,000 (that we know
about) and I earned $ 7,000 (actually $ 5 K after Mrs. Flathmann filed for
my unemployment benefits and emptied the account while I was in jail).
As she promised to bring money to the prison for me to use on personal
hygiene and telephone calls every two weeks but, she put money on my
account once and left me broke the second time as she kept all of my
money and for 5 weeks I had nothing.
The divorce started and ended because of her adulteress affairs. I said
that day one and I will not agree to anything less. I am certain that Mrs.
Flathmann and her posse will not have the ability to exploit the legal
system any longer to hide her affairs and gain unobstructed access to
any and all marital assets the whole community is now on to her. I will
also be filing civil actions against Larry Van Loon, Michael Billet for
alienation of affections as well as recoup all alimony paid to Mrs.
Flathmann in addition to a civil suit for defamation via the letter sent to
judge Oler.

December 2009, Suzanne had checked the history on my computer (as
she did daily) and learned that I was looking at Porn. Suzanne
confronted me and I shared with her that I was sorry, ashamed and this
would not happen again. Suzanne called me every name in the book and
stated that she did not want to be married to me. After pleading with
her and being condemned shamed and abused for two days, I left the
house and stayed in a hotel. I spent time at nightclubs and bars. Suzanne
has not worked in the whole time we were up until a couple of years ago
when she stared doing part time work with permanent make-up and
hiding her money from the children and used family money for plastic
surgeries, Botox and countless lotions and potions.
Suzanne then emptied & 12000 out of the family bank accounts and
closed all of the credit cards and lines of credit Suzanne refused to give
me back the money and for weeks as I begged her to go with me to
counseling. Her and my daughter started looking at town houses
disrespecting (bragging about where they would live) me. Suzanne filed
for a temporary protection from abuse order and was granted. I was
removed from my home What I did not know at the time was that
Suzanne was having an affair with Larry Van Loon which she later
admitted to me that she had an affair with (ex-husband & ex FBI Agent)
Larry Van Loon and was aiding her with legal advice and conspiring
with her to land have the PFA put in place and ultimately in jail. Suzanne
admitted to me about the affair, which came as no surprise to me at that
point because I knew based on the phone records (5 hours a day) that I
stumbled across while paying some bills. Suzanne told me Larry began
to call her Cell Phone in November 2009 after a chance meeting @ Giant.
Suzanne stated that Larry was reaching out to her based a confidential
matter he was having with his daughter Becky that Suzanne abandoned
18 years earlier during their very ABUSIVE (or so Suzanne says)
marriage. just like she has abandoned our son Dylan who has special
needs as he has Asperger Syndrome.
Suzanne's story Sound was a complete lie and she knew she was caught
especially in light of the fact that Larry and Suzanne were calling each
other using blocked calls or *67 before the phone number for two
months when talking
Larry Van Loon should be the last person in the whole world to want to
have any relationship with Suzanne or to help. Suzanne Flathmann has
destroyed Larry's (just like she is doing to me now) name with anyone
that would listen for the past eighteen years. She stated in detail
thousands of time to everyone she knew that:
Larry was a total scumbag who thinks he is above the law.
Larry Van Loon forced her to get her tubes tied. I herd the following
100's of times while Suzanne and I were trying to conceive a family via
IVF several times and ultimately adopting our two children "What kind
of a man forces a 26 year old girl to get her tubes tied".
Suzanne reported that Larry Van Loon beat her on several occasions
because he was jealous.
Larry cheated on her. (Saying w she could taste lip gel from another
woman's lips on Larry's Private).
Larry shot and killed a dog right in front of her.
Larry always marked the tires on her car so he could see if she went
anywhere or moved the car because he was jealous
Larry kept a diary on her regarding phone calls to family and friends
and making notes about conversations.
Suzanne indicated Larry Van Loon told her that jean Van Loon (Larry's
current wife and local physician) has clear mental challenges /
depression and is not a happy person.
Suzanne also stated many times that she thought it was very suspicious
that Larry kept a gun in the house while his now deceased first wife was
suffering from depression and ultimately killed herself.
Larry was a drunk who put booze in his coffee in the morning and drank
in the closet during visits from her family, not offering any alcohol to her
family.
Suzanne bragged to me that while married she screwed her then
boyfriend (Chris Green) in Larry's bed while he was at work.
So, you could understand my shock and surprise after Suzanne shared
with me that she has been in a relationship with and now has such deep
respect for Larry and he has been supporting her as she had me
removed from the home she and I had built for 15 years. It is now clear
to me that for what ever reason Larry was providing support and legal
counsel to Suzanne for some time.
I do have phone records, (attached) which clearly show 10 -15 phone
conversation per day between Larry and Suzanne. The calls would start
at 7:00 am and many nights from 9PM (when the Flathmann Children
went t to bed) till 1 O'clock in the morning.
I phoned Larry Van Loon's Wife jean and shared the good news and the
affair stopped. Suzanne dropped the PFA / Divorce Pursuit and we
began to heal as a family. I have begged Suzanne to go with me to family
counseling (as I did for 18 years) so that I could work through the
betrayal and hurt I suffered through her affair with Larry. Suzanne has
OCD issues and has abused our two children (see attached letter from
Dylan Flathmnn to his mom Suzanne) and myself for many years. After
six months of individual counseling that Suzanne had been involved in
with Bob Beachy, Suzanne reported to the family that she did not have
issues with OCD that her counselor reported that she is simply an over
achiever.
After I shared this information with Larry's Wife, he has chosen to use
the law to silence me and after one 5 minute phone call to his wife's cell
phone, Larry contacted me to share that I was not to contact him or he
will file charges against me. I made a second phone call to jean Van Loon
a month later to share with her that Suzanne had admitted to me that
she and Larry had committed adultery. I was issued a non-traffic
violation from Jude Placey's Office for Harassment. I paid the $ 287 fine
and pleaded not guilty and the case was dismissed. As soon as I shared
with jean Van Loon about the affair between Larry and Suzanne, the
affair ended. Then Mrs. Flathmann immediately started sexual relation
with her father's Boss and The owner of Billet Manufacturing, Michael
Billet. In the attached testimony from the first DRO hearing Mrs.
Flathmann stated that she started sexual relations with Mr. Billet two
weeks after the PFA was served. I will prove that she started sexual
relations prior to any separation and / or problems with the marriage.
She was dining with Mr. Billet in April of 2010 while I was in India on
business, She also visited her fathers tiny welding shop which Billet
Owns on several occasions.
Fast forward to June 22nd. Suzanne calls Hampden Township Police to
report that I had struck her after she bumped he mouth (so she stated)
against my head as she was trying to hit me with her cell phone. I was
arrested and charged with Simple Assault and Harassment. I spent the
night in jail and was released on bail the next morning. Suzanne then
went to The Hampden Township Police Dept. to report that I had tried
to contact as (I needed a suit and my computer to travel for work) her in
violation of the bail order. I was rearrested and spent 24 hours in
general population in Cumberland County Prison. Suzanne had again
obtained a PFA citing the same instances she used before resuming
marital relation with me..
Suzanne upon the order being served immediately emptied all of the
quality furniture and accessories out of the Flathmann Residence. It is
clear to me that and Larry Van Loon conspired for months and executed
a plan for Mrs. Flat Mann to move across the street with her belongings
for one month and then move back to the residence without any of her
belongings to bait me into the argument which she then accused me of
harassment and simple assault. The phone records show for months
Suzanne calling Larry Van Loon and as soon as she hung up with Larry
she would phone either her attorney / DRO and so on and so forth. This
whole scheme was cooked because I would not forgive Mrs. Flathmann
of having and admitting to having sexual relations with Larry Van Loon
and remove marital assets from The Flathmann Residence. I stated in
the very first DRO hearing that Mrs. Flathmann had these affairs. The
judge just ignored every truth I ever told and documented her lies. This
has gone on for two years.
Mrs. Flathmann had me arrested for my phone calling her phone while
putting it in my pocket. Which was a 16 second aborted call on record.
She had me arrested for.driving by her new house. She also had me
arrested for trying to see my dog. I plead guilty to all three charges at
one hearing and was sentenced to 18 months probation. Then had me
incarcerated in Cumberland County Prison for three month based on a
text message I sent My Daughter Alana complaining about her mother.
Mrs. Flathmann sent very similar text messages to our son Dylan on a
daily basis. Mrs. Flathmann would not even take the stand against me
during the trial instead made our 15 year old daughter the only witness
to testify against her father. After spending three months in
Cumberland County Prison Mrs. Flathmann came to visit me two days
before release while I was a trustee in the main lobby of the prison. I
was released on April 15 2010. Mrs. Flathmann spent 4 hours on the
phone with me on April 16ththe day after release. When I asked how we
could be talking she stated that she was the one who makes the decision
whether I go to jail or not. The next day April 17, 2010, Mrs. Flathmann
was waiting for me at church to lead me to a seat next to her. She held
my hand through the service while weeping. After church she invited
my son and I back to her townhouse for lunch. After lunch Mrs.
Flathmann laid with me in her bed upstairs' while the children were
downstairs watching TV. Mrs. Flathmann and I were romantically
hugging and kissing and atone point Mrs. Flathmann showed me her
thong under wear and invited me to put my hand in her pants. We soon
joined the children.
Mrs. Flathmann phoned me a day later and shared with me that her ala
non-sponsor told her she could not date for one year. I explained that
we were married for eighteen tears and probably past that point. I
asked if I could come over to discuss it with her and Mrs. Flathmann
stuck yet another knife in my heart by telling me that she already had
plans with Michael Billet her then lover. I got a courtesy call the
following day from Hampden PD stating that Mrs. Flathmann wanted to
re-implement the PFA. I later call the Chief of Hampden Township Police
and asked him how this could be possible. He stated she could basically
do what ever she wants with regard to me. He also stated that his
brother was in a similar situation and felt it was unfair.
Fast-forward six weeks I get pulled over and arrested for DUI. My BAC
was.06 however; I had pot in my system. The night before sentencing
after already spend two months in county for my first DUI and three
months early the same year based on a pack of lies and manipulations
from Mrs. Flathmann she sends a letter to Judge Oler (which is attached)
actually pleading with him to keep me in jail based on a list of
defamatory accusations against me all of which were lies which meant
they certainly was not proof.
Mrs. Flathmann has falsely testified during everyone of the DRO hearing
regarding her income. She is a certified permanent makeup artist and
earns & 150.00 per hour when she woks. Mrs. Flathmann has falsified
her earning to DRO for two years. Which has gone unchallenged by the
support master. I finally went to the IRS Criminal Investigation Division
and she will be investigated. Mrs. Flathmann once told me that Larry
Van Loon her lover and ex-husband thought he was above the law. It is
clear to me that Mrs. Flathmann feels like she is above the law and has
made a mockery out of a system designed to protect woman from abuse.
Mrs. Flathmann has been a stay at home Mom during both of her
marriages. Drives a Mercedes Benz has had 5 breast augmentation
operations and spent over a million dollars of Mr. Flathmann's earnings
on her self and remolding the Flathmann home compulsively. I think it
is time for Mrs. Flathmann to be held accountable.
So,
I am now raising our mentally disabled child alone with no job and $
20K in debts for legal, fines and costs. Mrs. Flathmann earned with the $
17000 in Alimony and Child support over $ 40,000 (that we know
about) and I earned $ 7,000 (actually $ 5 K after Mrs. Flathmann filed for
my unemployment benefits and emptied the account while I was in jail).
As she promised to bring money to the prison for me to use on personal
hygiene and telephone calls every two weeks but, she put money on my
account once and left me broke the second time as she kept all of my
money and for 5 weeks I had nothing.
The divorce started and ended because of her adulteress affairs. I said
that day one and I will not agree to anything less. I am certain that Mrs.
Flathmann and her posse will not have the ability to exploit the legal
system any longer to hide her affairs and gain unobstructed access to
any and all marital assets the whole community is now on to her. I will
also be filing civil actions against Larry Van Loon, Michael Billet for
alienation of affections as well as recoup all alimony paid to Mrs.
Flathmann in addition to a civil suit for defamation via the letter sent to
Judge Oler.

HAOOFMAN'S FIRST. ATTORNRY HOFFMAN HAS USED THIS SAME
FALSE INFORMATION (HARRASSING) AS A TACTIC DURING DIVORCE
PROCEEDINGS WITH MY EX-WIFE TO SUPRESS A COUNTER
AFFIDAVIT HEARING. 1 FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE DISCIPLANARY
BOARD OF THE SUPREME COUT OF PENNSYLVANIA
(SEE ATTACHED.) IN TWO YEARS I HAVE SPOKEN TO THE
DEFENDANTS WIFE TWICE I (IN 2010) TO SHARE WITH HER THE
DICOVERY OF THE SEXUAL RELATION BETWEEN THE DEFANDANT
AND MY EX-WIFE AND MY 17 YEAR OLD SON WROTE ONE LETTER TO
THE DEFENDANTS WIFE. JUDGE PLACEY WHILE DISTRICT
MAJESTRATE FOR HAMPDEN TOWNSHIPA DISMISSED COMPLAINT
FILED BY THE DEFENDANT IN 2010 FOR SIMILAR ALLEGATIONS TO
SUPRESS THE FACTS. THE DEFENDANT CALLED THE THREE PHONES
I PAID FOR OVER 300 TIMES WHILE, I ALLEDGE THE DEFENDANT WAS
COMMITTING ADULTRY WITH MY THEN WIFE AND COSPIRING WITH
HER TO CAUSE LEGAL DAMAGE TO THE PLAINTIFF AND TO GAIN
MATERIAL ASSETS.
31. THE ALLEGATINS ARE ANYTHING BUT VEXATIOUS AND
FRIVOLOUS 1.Tortuous Intentional Interference of a contract and
2. Conspiracy AND VIOLATIONS OF CIVIL RIGHTS AND DOING
ANYTHING IN ONE POWER TO SUPRESS EVIDENCE. THESE ARE VERY
SERIOUS ALLEGATIONS AGAIN, ESPECIALLY IN LIGHT OF THE
DEFENDANTS CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF THE LAW AS A RETIRED
FBI AGENT OF 25 YEARS.
32. 1 HAVE EXPENDED OVER $ 50,000 IN THE CASES SURROUNDING
THE DEFENDANTS MISCONDUCT.
33. WHAT AATTORNEY HOFFMAN IS NOT SAYING HEAR IS THAT SHE
AND MY EX-WIFE ARE DOING ANYTHING POSSIBLE TO HVE JUDGE
EBERT SUPPRESS MY MOTION. JUDGE EBERT HAS GRANTED A
HEARING REGARDING MY EFFORT TO HAVE THE PA DIVORCE CODE
CHANGE FROM 3301C IRRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES TO 3301 A
ADULTRY IN THE FINAL DIVORCE DOCUMENTS WHICH, ACURATELY
REFLECTS THE CAUSE OF THE FLATHMANN'S DIVORCE. ATTORNEY
HOFFMAN HAS AND IS IN THE PROCESS OF DOING WHATEVER
INCLUDING PROVINDEING DEFRORMTORTY AND /OR SLANDEROUS
COMMENTS ABOUT THE MR. FLATHMANN. THE HEARING IS
SCHEDULED FOR 12 JULY 201. 1 ALSO HAVE SCHEDULED A TRIAL BY
JURY FOR THE 23RD OF JULY TO HAVE MY EX-WIFE VACATES THE
3301C PA DIVORCE CODE.
FINALLY, I ASK THAT THIS COMPLAINT AND TRIAL BE PERMITTED TO
MOVE FORWARD.

OFFICE OF DISCIPLINARY COUNSEL INTAKE UNIT
E. STATEMENT OF COMPLAINT: (Note: Attach as many additional pages as necessary to fully set forth all of the relevan
facts and circumstances surrounding your complaint).
Attorney Hoffman has provided false and damaging information to the court (see attach Plaintiff to oppose Counter Affidavit. Bill of
Costs, Listing of case and Discovery). Item # 26 witnin the motion states "Plaintiff continues to harrass Plaintiff despite the protection
from abuse order" First she referred to me as the Plaintiff in lieu of the Defendant. Secondly I have had no contact with or harrassed
the Plaintiff in any way since my incarceration which, I am attempting to prove was a result of an affair my Wife had with her Ex
husband who is a reared 25 year FBI Agent which 1 have proof conspired against me to envoke a PFA against me and ultimately have
me incarcerated for three months to gain access to madtital assests. Attorney Hoffman has used these types of statements which
have gone unchallenged many times simply because of the fact I couldn't afford an attorney and have been representing myself Pro
Se. She has taken advantage of me and the whole legal by misrepresenting virtually every tact. This is clearly defamation of
character, slander, and could ultimately have me again falsely incarcerated. The Plaintiff, Mrs. Flathmann and Attorney Hoffman will
stop at nothing to supress the truth. Item # 19 cliams the petition I filed against The Plaintiff is Frivolous matter. The petition I tiled is
charging The Plaintiff with Adultry, False imprisonment, Providing False Testimony. These are very serious charges: certainly not
frivilous.
Attorney Hoffman filed on February 24th, 2011 (Attached) "PETITION FOR SPECIAL RELIEF PURSUANT TO
Pa RCP1920 43 AND FOR CONTEMPT OF COURT" Items 18 through 22 of the petition were grossly exagerated to force the sale of
the home while I was incarcerated via the conspiracy between The Plaintiff and ex-husband Lawrence Van Loon. I have since filed a
civil lawsuit agaist Mr. Van Loon.

Motion to Quash Subpoenas & Produce Documents
1. The moving parties are husband and wife who reside at 1201 Kings Circle, Mechanicsburg,
Cumberland County, PA, 17050, and are former neighbors of Plaintiff.
2. From about November 2009 through the present, Plaintiff and his estranged wife, Suzanne E.

-r
incarceration of Plaintiff on or about March of 2011 and then again in June 2011 for about three
months.
3. In or about May and June of 2010, the moving parties allowed Plaintiffs wife and daughter to
live in their home because they feared for their safety from Plaintiff, who, it is believed, later
had PFA orders issued against him to refrain from being in close physical or other contact
4. Plaintiff seeks the moving parties' detailed phone records for 717-732-1537 (home phone)
from "May 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010" in Case No. 12-1869, and from " May 10, 2010
through June 23, 2010" in Case No. 2009-8629.
5. The moving parties do not have such phone records, but on the basis of privacy for themselves
and the people they communicated with per the said phone numbers, they move to Quash the
said subpoena of Plaintiff.
6. Objection on the said document requests are also made on the basis that any requested
information is irrelevant and intended to harass.
7. The moving parties were never personally served with the said subpoenas.
WHEREFORE, the moving parties, Richard Skaare and Jane Skaare, request that this Honorable
Court issue an order Quashing the subpoenas to produce documents and grant the moving parties
attorneys' fees and damages in the event they have to do anything further in this matter.
