Re: Charles L. Martz YS. Sandra Passarella
Cumberland County Divorce Action No. 04-6528
Dear Ms. Passarella:
I previously served you with a Divorce Complaint and 3301 (d) affidavit on January 5,
2005. Following service of the complaint Mr. Martz advised me that you would not be
contesting the divorce. I informed him that if that remained your position, the divorce
decree could be entered without further action by either party following service of the
required Notice of Intent to Request Entry of Divorce Decree.
To that end and in accordance with the Rules of Civil Procedure, I am herewith serving
you with the Plaintiff's Notice of Intention to Request Divorce Decree and attached
3301 (d) counter-affidavit. If you have any questions regarding any of these documents
you should contact the attorney for your choosing. If you take no action in this case, I
will proceed with asking the Court to enter a final Decree of Divorce in this matter on
or after February 15, 2005.
Very truly yours,

You have been sued in an action for divorce. You have failed to answer the complaint or file

or verified or a counter-affidavit by the above date, the court can enter a final decree in divorce. A
counter-affidavit which you may file with the Prothonotary of the court is attached to this notice.
Unless you have already filed with the court a written claim for economic relief, you must do
so by the above date or the court may grant the divorce and you will lose forever the right to ask for
economic relief. A COUNTER-AFFIDAVIT WHICH YOU MAY FILE WITH THE PROTHONOTARY OF THE
COURT IS AITACHED TO THIS NOTICE. The filing of the form counter-affidavit alone does not protect
your economic claims.
