Bayley, and in support of the within motion avers as follows: 1. The Honorable Kevin A. Hess previously entered an order on May 6, 2013 appointing arbitrators with regard to the above captioned matter. 2. On December 12, 2012 the Plaintiff filed its Complaint with claims for breach of contract and quantum meruit; the Plaintiff claims it is owed $14,818.23 for electrical services it avers to have provided to the Defendant. 3. On February 28, 2013 service of the Complaint was completed upon the Defendant. 4. On March 11, 2013 Plaintiff's counsel forwarded a 10 day default notice to the Defendant. 5. On March 20, 2013 the undersigned counsel entered his appearance and filed Defendant's Answer in which the Defendant denied that Plaintiff provided services justifying compensation of$14,818.23 and avers that it previously requested itemized invoices from the Plaintiff which were not provided. 6. By letter dated March 28, 2013 the Plaintiff indicated to Defendant that it was not willing to offer a reduced demand but invited the Defendant to make an initial settlement offer. (Attached as "Exhibit A"). 7. By letter dated April 3, 2013 the Defendant informally requested itemized invoices so that it could then"be in the position to make a settlement offer." (Attached as "Exhibit B"). 8. By letter dated April 11, 2013 the Plaintiff ignored the request for . itemized invoices and indicated that it planned to list the matter for arbitration. (Attached as "Exhibit C"). 9. By letter on the same date the Defendant again requested itemized invoices and to proceed with discovery informally; the Defendant additionally stated that any request to list the matter for arbitration prior to the completion of discovery would be opposed. (Attached as "Exhibit D"). 10. By letter on the same date the Plaintiff indicated to the Defendant to proceed with formal discovery. (Attached as "Exhibit E"). 11. On May 1, 2013,the Plaintiff filed its Petition forAppointment of Arbitrators. (Attached as "Exhibit F"). 12. On May 2, 2013 Defendant's counsel,not being aware of the above petition which was not forwarded to him,provided formal document requests and interrogatories to Plaintiff's counsel. (See copies attached as "Exhibit G"and"Exhibit H"). 13. By order entered May 6, 2013 the Honorable Kevin A. Hess appointed a panel of arbitrators in response to Plaintiff s petition. (Attached as "Exhibit F"). 14. In addition to acting diligently with regard to this matter,the Defendant's counsel offered to streamline the discovery process which was rejected by the Plaintiff. 15. Based upon the nature of Plaintiff's claims, itemized invoices along with the other requested discovery items are obviously relevant to the litigation, will likely be useful for potential settlement negotiations, and may lead to other relevant and discoverable matters. 16. Said discovery is permissible pursuant to Pa.R.C.P.No. 4001 et seq. 17. A copy of the within motion was forwarded to Christopher E. Rice, Esquire; on behalf of the Plaintiff Attorney Rice indicates that he would prefer for the arbitration chairperson to informally delay scheduling of the arbitration until discovery is complete. However, it is debatable whether the chairperson has authority to do this pursuant to arbitration rules set forth in Pa.R.C.P. No. 1301 et seq. and there may be other pre-trial issues for the Court's consideration prior to trial. Therefore, the Defendant requests entry of one of the two attached proposed orders. 18. A copy of the within motion was forwarded to the arbitration chairperson Elizabeth B. Stone, Esquire. WHEREFORE, the Defendant requests that the order appointing arbitrators that was entered May 6, 2013 be vacated pending the completion of discovery or, in the alternative,that the panel be ordered to delay scheduling of an arbitration until both parties certify that discovery is complete or pending further order of Court.

IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF Plaintiff CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA V. NO. 2012 - 7447 CIVIL TERM BATTLESTONE STEEL, LLC, Defendant PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO VACATE ORDER DATED MAY 14, 2013 and PROCEED TO ARBITRATION AND NOW, comes the Plaintiff, E&G Services, Inc., by and through its attorneys MARTSON LAW, and files this Motion to Vacate Order dated May 14, 2013, and Proceed to Arbitration and in support thereof avers as follows: 1. On April 11,2013,Plaintiff contacted Defendant stating they were going to list this matter for arbitration unless Defendant planned to conduct discovery. 2. The Defendant responded that he was intending to conduct formal discovery and Plaintiff asked that it be submitted by the end of the following week (being April 19, 2013); otherwise,Plaintiff would proceed and would list this matter for arbitration. 3. Thereafter, no discovery was provided by Defendant and Plaintiff moved forward with listing the matter for arbitration on May 1, 2013, nearly three weeks after the last correspondence to Defendant. 4. This Court entered an Order on May 6, 2013, appointing arbitrators. 5. On May 9,2013,Defendant filed a Motion to vacate the Order entered May 6,2013. 6. The Honorable Kevin A.Hess previously entered an Order on May 14,2013,vacating the Order dated May 6, 2013, and deferring the arbitration until both parties certified discovery is complete or pending further Order. The Order is attached as Exhibit"A." 7. Thereafter, formal discovery requests were sent by Defendant to Plaintiff. 8. Plaintiff answered the discovery requests and returned them on June 18, 2013. Plaintiff also requested whether any additional discovery would be needed or if we could certify to the Court that the parties were ready to proceed to arbitration. 9. On June 21,2013,Defendant notified Plaintiff that they would review the responses and let Plaintiff know how they were going to proceed in the future. 10. On July 10,2013,after receiving no further response from Defendant,Plaintiff called Defendant's attorney, who was on vacation and would not be returning to the office until July 15. 11. A letter followed from Plaintiff dated July 10, 2013, stating that Defendant contact us upon his return to determine whether any further discovery would be needed. 12. On July 17, 2013, again after not hearing from the Defendant, Plaintiff contacted Defendant to determine whether any further discovery would be conducted or if this matter certified to proceed to arbitration. 13. Defendant's counsel responded that he would respond in a few weeks as this was not a priority right now. 14. This is a priority for Plaintiff as Plaintiff has not been paid for nearly one year and believes that this is a continued delay tactic by the Defendant who continues to operate at the job site in which Plaintiff provided services. 15. Plaintiff believes that if Defendant completes the work at the job site and leaves the general area, it will be harder for Plaintiff to recover. 16. Plaintiff is requesting that this Court vacate its Order dated May 14, 2013, and provide a firm deadline of August 1, 2013,to finalize all discovery by the parties and thereafter, allow the arbitration to be scheduled. 17. Defendant's counsel does not concur with this Motion. WHEREFORE,Plaintiff requests that the Order of Court dated May 14,2013,is vacated,that a discovery deadline of August 1, 2013, is implemented, and that the Board of Arbitrators be authorized to proceed with scheduling an arbitration after August 1, 2013.
