Motor Vehicle Accident of November 3, 2000
10. Paragraphs 1 through 9 are incorporated herein by reference.
-2-
11. On November 3, 2000, at approximately 11:43 a.m., Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, was
operating a 1997 Toyota Tacoma pickup truck traveling west on Hartzdale Drive in Lower Allen
Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
12. Rhea Brosius was stopped on Hartzdale Drive to wait for oncoming traffic to clear
so she could turn left into what was then the "Rib-It" restaurant parking lot.
13. At that same time, Angela Renolds was traveling west on Hartzdale Drive in
Lower Allen Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, operating a 2000 GMC truck owned
by U-Haul Company of North Carolina.
14. Angela Renolds failed to observe that Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, was stopped and
waiting to turn, and the vehicle operated by Angela Renolds struck the rear of Plaintiff, Rhea
Brosius's, vehicle before Rhea Brosius could complete her turn.
15. Angela Renolds was cited for careless driving by the Lower Allen Township
Police Department.
16. Angela Renolds operated her vehicle in a negli!~ent, careless and reckless
manner in that she:
a. failed to have her vehicle under proper and adequate control at all times;
b. failed to keep a reasonable lookout for other vehicles lawfully on the
roadway;
c. failed to take any or proper evasive action in order to avoid the collision;
d. failed to operate her vehicle at a safe speed and/or within the posted
speed limit;
e. failed to operate her vehicle in a manner that allowed her to stop within a
safe time and distance from traffic ahead of her and within the assured clear distance
ahead;
-3-
f. operated her vehicle such that it struck Plaintiffs' vehicle from behind; and
g. failed to operate her vehicle within a safe following distance from Plaintiff
as she was obligated to do.
17. Ms. Renolds operated her vehicle in violation <of the Motor Vehicle Code and, as
a result, Ms. Renolds was negligent per se.
18. It is believed and therefore averred that at the time of the November 3, 2000
motor vehicle accident, Ms. Renolds was acting within the scope of her employment with
Kirkland's, Inc. and/or on behalf of Defendant, U-Haul Company of North Carolina.
19. As a result of the aforesaid motor vehicle accident, Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius,
sustained serious injuries that include, but are not limited to, injuries to her neck, thoracic and
lumbar spine, forehead, right hand, elbows, hips, right foot, and may further include aggravation
of preexisting conditions, and which injuries result in Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, being in a
weakened condition and more susceptible to injury or at risk for suffering greater injury as a
result of any subsequent trauma or event.
20. As a result of the aforesaid motor vehicle accident and the negligence,
carelessness and recklessness of Angela Renolds, Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, suffered damages
as follows:
a. She endured and may continue to endure pain and suffering, loss of life's
pleasures, embarrassment, humiliation, mental anguish and emotional distress.
b. She has suffered and may continue to suffer from her injuries and
physical impairment which have hindered and may continue to hinder her ability to carry
out her usual and customary daily activities;
c. She has received and may continue to receive and undergo medical
attention and care and has incurred and may incur various expenses for this treatment
-4-
for which she had a claim arising out of the motor vehicle accident of November 3, 2000,
to the extent permitted by applicable law,
d. She has suffered a loss of earnings or earning capacity for which she had
a claim arising out of the motor vehicle accident of November 3, 2000, to the extent
permitted by applicable law.
21. As a result of the negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of Angela
Renolds, and as a result of the injuries suffered by Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, Plaintiff, Harold
Brosius, has been and will be deprived of the society, companionship, contributions and
consortium of his wife, Rhea Brosius, to his great detriment and financial loss.
22. Defendant, Joseph L. Hitchings, owed a duty of care to Plaintiffs, Rhea Brosius
and Harold Brosius. The legal services provided to Rhea Brosius and Harold Brosius by
Defendant, Joseph L. Hitchings, with respect to the motor vehicle accident of November 3,
2000, fell below the applicable standard of care for an attorney.
23. Defendant, Joseph L. Hitchings, was negligent with respect to the legal services
provided to Plaintiffs, Rhea Brosius and Harold Brosius, with respect to the November 3, 2000
motor vehicle accident in that he failed to timely file suit on the,ir behalf and failed to name
Harold Brosius in the suit that he did file.
24. The action filed by Joseph L. Hitchings naming Rhea Brosius as Plaintiff and
Kirkland's, Inc., U-Haul Company of North Carolina, and Angela Renolds as Defendants was
filed after the applicable statute of limitations had expired.
25. Because the suit filed by Joseph L. Hitchings naming Rhea Brosius as Plaintiff
and Kirkland's, Inc., U-Haul Company of North Carolina, and A.ngela Renolds as Defendants
was filed after the applicable statute of limitations had expired, the suit was dismissed by Order
-5-
of Judge Edward E. Guido of the Court of Common Pleas of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
A true and correct copy of the Order of Judge Guido is attached hereto as Exhibit "E".
26. Defendant, Joseph L. Hitchings, was provided with copies of the pleadings and
given the opportunity to participate in argument with respect to the Defendants' request to
dismiss the Brosius v. Kirkland's et al. matter on the grounds of the statute of limitations, and he
did not participate. Defendant, Joseph L. Hitchings, had not withdrawn his appearance in the
Brosius v. Kirkland's et al. matter.
27. As a result of the negligence of Defendant, Joseph L. Hitchings, Plaintiffs, Rhea
Brosius and Harold Brosius, were deprived of their causes of action and claims for damages
arising out of the motor vehicle accident of November 3, 2000.
28. Under their Farm Family Insurance Company policy, Rhea Brosius and Harold
Brosius had underinsured motorist coverage applicable to the November 3, 2000 motor vehicle
accident, and to the extent that Rhea Brosius and Harold Brosius have an underinsured motorist
claim arising out of the November 3, 2000 motor vehicle accident, the aforesaid negligence of
Joseph L. Hitchings has potentially prejudiced the underinsun3d motorist claim of Plaintiffs;
therefore, Rhea Brosius and Harold Brosius claim herein against Defendant, Joseph L.
Hitchings, for any damages or losses that they sustained or that they will suffer as a result
thereof.
COUNT I

33. Paragraphs 1 through 9 are incorporated herein by reference.
-7-
34. On January 22,2001, at approximately 3:18 p.m., Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, was
operating a 1997 Toyota Tacoma pickup truck northbound on SR-0011 in Silver Spring
Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
35. Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, turned left onto BernhElisel Bridge Road and stopped to
wait for oncoming traffic to clear so that she could turn into the Hess Gas Station at the corner
of SR-0011 and Bernheisel Bridge Road.
36. At that same time, William Dillman, Jr. was operating a 1993 Chevrolet C-20 van
and was also traveling northbound on SR-0011 in Silver Spring Township, Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania, behind Plaintiff.
37. Mr. Dillman also turned left onto Bernheisel Bndge Road and drove his vehicle
such that he ran into the rear of Rhea Brosius's vehicle.
38. Mr. Dillman was cited for following too closely by Silver Spring Township Police
Department.
39. At the time of the aforesaid motor vehicle accident, Mr. Dillman was acting in the
course of his employment with UGI.
40. At the time of the aforesaid motor vehicle accident, Mr. Dillman operated his
vehicle in a negligent, careless, and reckless manner in that Mr. Dillman:
a. failed to have his vehicle under proper and adequate control at all times;
b. failed to keep a reasonable lookout for other vehicles lawfully on the
roadway;
c. failed to take any or proper evasive action in order to avoid the collision;
d. failed to operate his vehicle at a safe speed and/or within the posted
speed limit;
-8-
e. failed to operate his vehicle in a mann'3r that allowed him to stop within a
safe time and distance from traffic ahead of him and within the assured clear distance
ahead;
f. operated his vehicle such that it struck Plaintiffs vehicle from behind; and
g. failed to operate his vehicle within a safe following distance from Plaintiff,
Rhea Brosius, as he was obligated to do.
41. Mr. Dillman operated his vehicle in violation of the Motor Vehicle Code of
Pennsylvania and was negligent per se.
42. As a direct and proximate result of the negligence, carelessness and
recklessness of Mr. Dillman, Mrs. Brosius sustained serious injuries that include but are not
limited to injuries to her cervical spine, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, right ankle sprain, nerve
damage, contusions to the right and middle finger and may further include aggravation of
preexisting conditions, and which injuries result in Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, being in a weakened
condition and more susceptible to injury or at risk for suffering greater injury as a result of any
subsequent trauma or event.
43. As a direct and proximate result of the negligence, carelessness and
recklessness of Mr. Dillman, Rhea Brosius has incurred dama!~es as follows:
a. She has endured and may continue to endure pain, suffering, loss of life's
pleasures, embarrassment, humiliation, mental anguish, and emotional distress;
b. She has suffered and may continue to suffer from her injuries and
physical impairments which have impaired her ability to carry out her usual and
customary daily activities.
-9-
c. She has received and may continue to receive and undergo medical
attention and care and has incurred and may incur various expenses for this treatment
for which she has a claim to the extent permitted by applicable law.
d. She has suffered a loss of earnings and earning capacity for which she
has a claim to the extent permitted by applicable law.
44. As a result of the negligence, carelessness, and recklessness of William Dillman,
Jr., and as a result of the injuries suffered by Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, Plaintiff, Harold Brosius,
has been and will be deprived of the society, companionship, contributions and consortium of
his wife, Rhea Brosius, to his great detriment and financial loss,
45. Defendant, Joseph L. Hitchings, owed a duty of care to Plaintiffs, Rhea Brosius
and Harold Brosius, with respect to representing them for their claims arising from the
January 22, 2001 motor vehicle accident.
46. The representation of Rhea Brosius and Harold Brosius by Joseph L. Hitchings
with respect to the January 22, 2001 motor vehicle accident fl311 below the applicable standard of
care and was negligent.
47. Joseph L. Hitchings was negligent in that:
a. He failed to name Harold Brosius as a Plaintiff in the case that he brought
for Rhea Brosius as a result of the motor vehicle accident of January 22, 2001, as
required by the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure.
b. Prior to the running of the applicable statute of limitations, Mr. Hitchings
failed to add Harold Brosius to the action that he had brought on behalf of Rhea Brosius
arising out of the January 22, 2001 motor vehicle accident or institute suit on behalf of
Harold Brosius for the damages that Harold Brosius sustained as a result of the
January 22, 2001 motor vehicle accident.
-10-
c. Prior to the running of the applicable statute of limitations, Mr. Hitchings
failed to institute suit against Mr. Dillman's employer or include UGI as a defendant in the
suit that he filed on behalf of Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, for the January 22, 2001 motor
vehicle accident.
48. Because the statute of limitations with respect to the January 22, 2001 motor
vehicle accident has now expired, Harold Brosius cannot be added to the present action
proceeding against Mr. Dillman and cannot otherwise bring an action for his damages arising
out of the January 22, 2001 motor vehicle accident, and his claim is barred by the statute of
limitations.
49. Because the statute of limitations with respect to the January 22, 2001 motor
vehicle accident has now expired, Rhea Brosius cannot add lIGI to the action pending against
Mr. Dillman and Rhea Brosius and Harold Brosius cannot otherwise institute an action against
UGI because the claims against UGI are barred by the statute of limitations.
50. As a direct and proximate result of the negligence of Defendant, Joseph L
Hitchings, Plaintiff, Harold Brosius, has been deprived of his cause of action and loss of
consortium damages arising out of the motor vehicle accident of January 22, 2001.
51. As a direct and proximate result of the negligence of Defendant, Joseph L.
Hitchings, Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, has been deprived of her cause of action and claim against
Defendant, UGI, and as a result cannot recover damages against Defendant, UGI, with respect
to the injuries she suffered arising from the motor vehicle accident of January 22, 2001.
52. Under their Farm Family Insurance Company policy, Rhea Brosius and Harold
Brosius had underinsured motorist coverage applicable to the ,January 22, 2001 motor vehicle
accident, and to the extent that Rhea Brosius and Harold Brosius have an underinsured motorist
claim arising out of the January 22, 2001 motor vehicle accident, the failure of Defendant,
-11-
Joseph L. Hitchings, to institute suit against UGI has potentiallly prejudiced the underinsured
motorist claim and therefore Plaintiffs and Rhea Brosius and Harold Brosius claim herein
against Defendant, Joseph L. Hitchings, for any damages or losses that they sustained or that
they will suffer as a result thereof.
53. Plaintiff, Harold Brosius, claims damages against Defendant, Joseph Hitchings,
for his loss of consortium damages arising out of the motor vllhicle accident of January 22,
2001, for the damages he has sustained and will sustain as a result of Defendant, Joseph L.
Hitchings, failing to institute suit against UGI on his behalf and on behalf of Rhea Brosius, for
which Joseph L. Hitchings is liable to Plaintiff, Harold Brosius.
54. Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius, claims damages against Joseph L. Hitchings for the
damages that she sustained and will sustain as a result of Defendant Hitchings failing to
institute suit against UGI on her behalf and on behalf of Harold Brosius for which damages
Defendant, Joseph L. Hitchings, is liable to Plaintiff, Rhea Brosius.
