Itr Re: Estate of Beverly A Dissinger,Deceased
Petition to Open Safe Deposit Box 1
Dissinger. Barry Lee Dissinger is the contingent (after his parents) trustee of the
Trust.
6. Decedent was the widow of Richard F. Dissinger, who died on
December 10, 2001.
7. On February 18, 2002 Decedent executed a Last Will and
Testament. (the "Will") A copy of the Will, from the files of the undersigned legal
counsel, is attached hereto as Exhibit"B" and is incorporated herein by reference
thereto.
8. The Will names your Petitioner, Barry Lee Dissinger, as Executor.
9. The Petitioner has been unable to locate the original of the Will
among the papers of the Decedent. However, the Petitioner has found a list that
the Decedent kept of papers in her safe deposit box. That list identifies the Will.
10. Decedent maintained a safe deposit box at M&T Bank, 4 North U.B.
Highway, No., 15, Dillsburg, Pennsylvania. The box is number 171 and is
registered in the name of the Decedent alone.
11. M&T Bank records indicate that the safe deposit box has not been
accessed for seven years.
12. The Petitioner has not been able to locate the key to the safe
deposit box.
11 Pennsylvania law provides for the entry of a safe deposit box to
locate a will:
(e) Nothing in this part shall prohibit a financial institution from
permitting entry into a safe deposit box of a decedent for the sole purpose
of removing the decedent's will and evidence of ownership of the burial lot
In Re: Estate of Beverly M.Dissinger,Deceased
Petition to Open Safe Deposit Box 2
in which the decedent is to be interred. An employe of the financial
institution must be present at the opening of the box and make or cause
to be made a record of the documents removed from the safe deposit box
during the entry and attest the record to be correct and complete under
penalty of perjury.
72 P.S. §9192(e)
14. If a safe deposit box is entered pursuant to 72 P.S. §9192(e) the
contents of the box, other than a will or evidence of ownership of a burial lot,
must be left in the box until the same is later inventoried by a personal
representative as authorized by statute.
15. M&T Bank would permit Petitioner to access the safe deposit box to
remove a will if Petitioner had the key. Because Petitioner does not have the key
M&T Bank requires a Court Order in order to allow the safe deposit box to be
drilled open and searched.
16. Because the safe deposit box must be drilled open, its contents,
other than a will or evidence of ownership of a burial lot, cannot be returned to it
for safe keeping.
17. Pennsylvania law provides that the Court may order the entry of a
safe deposit box and the removal of its contents, to wit:
(c) The court for cause shown may order that a designated person
or persons be permitted to enter a safe deposit box of a decedent and
remove the contents described in the order, under supervision as the
court may direct. The order may also require that a record be made of the
contents of the box.
72 P.S. §9192(c)
18. The undersigned counsel for the Petitioner is willing to hold the
contents of the box until such time as the Petitioner can be appointed the
personal representative of the Decedent.

19. At least seven days prior to the entry of a safe deposit box, notice is
to be given to the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue by return receipt U.S.

Dillsburg, PA 17019, in the presence of a bank officer, Barry M. Dissinger, and
Stephen D. Tiley, Esquire, and that the contents of the said box be inventoried,

Testamentary;
(ii) Authorizing and directing M&T Bank to have the safe deposit box

death shall be paid from the residue of my estate regardless of whether the assets upon which
such taxes are based are included in my probate estate.

wheresoever the same may be situate,I give,devise and bequeath as follows: One-half(1/2)to
my son,Barry Lee Dissinger,his heirs and assigns,provided he shall survive me by a period of
