JASON E. LUKENS, ACTION IN DIVORCE
Defendant
PETITION FOR SPECIAL RELIEF
AND NOW COMES, Gwen M. Lukens, by and through her counsel, Jane Adams,
Esquire, and asks this Court for Special Relief pursuant to the Divorce Code as follows:
1. Plaintiff is Gwen M. Lukens, who currently resides at 5340 Oxford Circle, Apt 44,
Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pa., 17055.
2. Defendant is Jason E. Lukens, whose last known address is RD#4, Box 4419,
Duncannon, Perry County, Pennsylvania, 17020.
3. The parties were married on April 7, 2001.
4. A divorce was filed in the above-captioned matter on May 6, 2004.
5. During the marriage, the parties lived at the marital home, which is located at 50 S.
39th Street, Camp Hill, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, 17011.
6. The marital home was listed for sale with Matthew R. Hockley of Century 21 and the
parties recently entered into a sales agreement regarding the property.
6. During the marriage, the parties owned two vehicles, a 2000 Toyota Tacoma and a
1997 Saturn SL; these two vehicles were purchased during the marriage.
7. Wife is self-employed and provides cleaning services; adequate transportation is
essential to her livelihood.
8. Husband is not currently employed.
9. During the marriage, Wife maintained the monthly payments on the Toyota Tacoma,
maintained the insurance, and all other costs attributable to this vehicle.
10. Wife is requesting sole and exclusive possession of the Toyota Tacoma truck for the
following reasons:
a. Wife drove the Toyota Tacoma Truck throughout the marriage and used the
vehicle in her cleaning business. She maintained all loan and insurance
payments. The truck is essential to maintaining her employment. Husband is
currently not employed.
b. On the morning of December 28, 2004, between approximately midnight and 7
a.m., Husband removed the vehicle, which is jointly titled, from the parking lot of
Wife's apartment complex. Such action seriously jeopardized Wife's
employment. A payment towards the truck was due on January 4, 2005. During
the time Husband had possession of the truck, he did not make any payments
towards the car loan or insurance.
c. Wife peacefully obtained physical possession of the vehicle in a public place
on January 11, 2005. She still has serious concerns that Husband may try to
obtain possession of the vehicle thereby jeopardizing her ability to maintain
gainful employment.
11. Wife is requesting that Husband be ordered to cooperate with the sale of the marital
home for the following reasons:
a. Although Husband did sign a sales agreement regarding the marital home,
Husband has made several representations to Wife that he would not cooperate
with the sale of the marital home or sign any documentation to effectuate the sale
of the marital home.
b. Before the home was listed for sale, a Sheriff's Sale had been scheduled
regarding the property.
c. Neither party is currently living in the home.
d. Husband said to Wife "I am going to get you any way I can" and has made
representations to her that he would not sign the Deed or the closing documents.
e. If the sale of the Marital Home does not occur due to Husband's failure to
cooperate, great cost and expense would accrue to the parties, thereby constituting
waste of the remaining marital assets.
12. Failure to grant these above requests would irreparably harm Plaintiff, and immediate
relief is required.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests that this Honorable Court grant her Petition
for Special Relief and any other relief this Honorable Court deems necessary and appropriate.
Respectfully submitted,
