CIVIL ACTION - CUSTODY
PETITION TO MODIFY CUSTODY
1. The petitioner is Natasha N. Bender, residing at 405 Hummel Ave., Apt 2,
Lemoyne, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
2. The respondent is Gannon Kupko, presently residing in York County,
Pennsylvania, at an address he will not furnish.
3. On March 26, 2003, the Honorable Edward Guido entered a custody order, a
copy of which is attached as Exhibit A, granting the parties shared physical and legal custody.
4. Since the entry of Exhibit A, the following substantial circumstances ~and facts
have changed, giving rise to this petition: plaintiff (petitioner) mother has had another child
and Austin, the child at issue, is approaching school age. In addition, the stress and friction of
the frequent custody exchanges under the present order are not good for the child.
5. As a result of the foregoing, the existing provisions regarding custody are no
longer in the best imerest and welfare of the child.
6. The best interests and welfare of the child will be promoted by a modification of
physical custody whereby petitioner mother shall have primary physical custody and
respondent father shall have partial custody on alternating weekends.
WHEREFORE, your petitioner respectfully prays that this Hfij ~rable Court modify
/
[
physical custody to grant petitioner primary physical custody. / ]

MOTION FOR CONTINUANCE
NOW, comes the Defendant, Gannon T. Kupko, by his attorney, Nathan C. Wolf,
Esquire, and presents the following motion for continuance of hearing, representing as
follows:
1. The defendant is Gannon T. Kupko, an adult individual residing in
Lewisberry, York County, Pennsylvania.
2. The plaintiff is Natasha N. Bender, an adult individual residing at 405
Hummel Avenue, Apartment 2, Lemoyne, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17043.
3. The parties are the natural parents of one child, Austin Trent Kupko, age
two years months, born March 4, 2000, out of wedlock.
4. Plaintiff filed a petition to modify custody on or about August 20, 2003.
5. Thereafter, on October 2, 2003, a conciliation conference was held before
Melissa P. Greevy, Esquire, custody conciliator whereupon both parties were present
and represented by counsel.
6. At the conference, the parties agreed to cooperate in the performance of
a custody evaluation by the firm of Riegler, Shienvold & Associates.
7. The parties have initiated and are currently undergoing said evaluation.
8. Subsequent to the conference, this Court issued an Order on October 13,
2003, directing the parties to submit to the custody evaluation, and scheduling a
hearing date of February 6, 2004 at 8:30 o'clock a.m. before Judge Guido.
9. Defendant's last meeting with the custody evaluator is scheduled for
February 5, 2004.
10. Since the defendant's last meeting with the custody evaluator is not
scheduled to occur until only one day prior to the hearing date, it is anticipated that the
report will not be ready and that the parties will be unable to adequately prepare for the
hearing.
11. Furthermore, the parties had requested that they be able to reconvene the
conciliation process by submitting a written request to the conciliator within ten (10)
days of the issuance of the evaluator's report, and said request was incorporated in the
Court's Order of October 13, 2003.
12. In light of the foregoing, Defendant requests that hearing scheduled for
February 6, 2004 be cancelled and rescheduled for a date at least forty-five (45) days
after that date.
13. Counsel for the defendant has sought concurrence from Plaintiff's counsel
in the instant motion and such concurrence has been given.
14. Defendant believes and therefore avers that the permanent welfare and
the best interests of the child will be served by granting the instant petition.
WHEREFORE, Defendant, Gannon T. Kupko, respectfully requests that this
Honorable Court enter an order canceling the hearing scheduled for February 6, 2004,
and to schedule a new hearing date at least forty-five days after February 6, 2004 so
that the evaluator's report may be completed and that the parties may have adequate
time to review the report prior to the hearing.

MOTION FOR CONTINUANCE
NOW, comes the Plaintiff, NATASHA N. BENDER, by her attorney, Jerry A. Philpott,

1. Hearing in this matter was rescheduled not long ago because the evaluator's report
was late in arriving and there was no point in holdintg the hearing until the report was
available.
2. The rescheduled date for the hearing, Friday April 2, 2004, conflicts with a
previously-scheduled bench trial in Perry County.
3. I did not immediately raise the scheduling conflict because we still did not have an
evaluation report, but that has now arrived. It is relatively neutral and the parties are
weighing their options. However, I must now deal with the scheduling issue.
4. Opposing counsel, Nathan Wolf, Esquire, does not: oppose a rescheduling.
5. The parties may - but have not yet - ultimately decide to allow the present order to
stand. I will obviously notify the court if there is no need for the hearing at all.
Dated: March 22, 2004

Re: Bender v. Kupko
No. 02y~. (custody)
Dear Court Administrator:
I am counsel for the moving party in Bender vs. Kupko, which most recently had a hearing
scheduled for April 2, although a continuance motion is pending at the moment.
The movant has decided that she doesn't need the hearing. This is based upon a custody
evaluation that was received and the parties have considered which suggests no change at this time.
Defendants counsel, Nathan Wolf, concurs in not having a hearing.
Please take this off the calendar, and, if the continuance motion is still pending, I am
withdrawing it.
Sincerely,
Jerry A. Philpott
