Defendant : CIVIL ACTION -LAW Complaint 1. Plaintiff is CITIBANK, N.A. with place of business located at 701 East 60th Street North, Sioux Falls, South Dakota. 2. Defendant is Joyce Draper who resides 6260 Run Cross Lane, Enola, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. 3. Plaintiff is a national banking association, engaged in various types of banking business including consumer lending through the issuance of credit cards. 4. Defendant obtained extensions of credit from Citibank, N.A., successor in interest to Citibank (South Dakota), N.A., by means of a credit card account (hereafter the Account) with account number ending in 0774. 5. Citibank (South Dakota), N.A. merged into Citibank, N.A. in or about July 2011. 6. Accurate records of all debits and credits to the Account were maintained by plaintiff. 7. Defendant was provided with monthly statements for the Account including the billing statement attached hereto as Exhibit A (redacted to remove confidential information). The monthly statements accurately stated the previous balance and the debits and credits to the Account for the prior billing period. 8. Defendant had for many months after receipt of a billing statement made payment on the Account or retained the statement without payment. 9. Defendant retained the Exhibit A statement without making payment by the stated due date. 10. Defendant's assent to the Account balance set forth in the Exhibit A statement is manifested through the prior conduct of defendant either making payment on the Account or retaining the statement without payment, after receipt of the monthly billing statements. 11. As a result of said assent, an account stated for the sum of $9,972.86 exists which sum reflects the Exhibit A statement balance less credits, if any, which were applied subsequent to the date of Exhibit A.

Admitted. 5. Admitted. 6. No response required. 7. Denied. There would be no unfairness to defendant by the judgment remaining in place since defendant's proposed answer (Attached as Exhibit A to defendant's petition to open) contains only explicit admissions and general denials with demands for strict proof. Under Pa. R. C. P. 1029, defendant's pleading thereby admits all of the complaint averments resulting in there being no genuine issue of material fact. The proposed answer admits the complaint, and thereby fails to constitute a meritorious defense to plaintiff s action.
