Father had physical custody every weekend.
7. When Mother finished nursing school, Father's custodial periods were
reduced to alternate weekends when Mother worked.
8. Approximately two to three nights a week Mother works the evening shift,

alone until Mother's night shift ends.
8. Due to Mother's night shift, Father would drive to Lancaster after his job

believes he does not get while in Mother's custody.

Casey has been living with Father.
10. Father believes and therefore avers that it is in Casey's best interest to
primarily reside with Father.
10. Father believes and therefore avers that it is in Alexandra's best interest to
have increased physical custody time with Father.
12. Father is seeking to modify the order such that he would have primary
physical custody of Casey and shared physical custody of Alexandria.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests this Honorable Court to grant
Plaintiffs Petition to Modify Custody and enter an Order granting Father primary physical
custody of the parties' son, Casey, and shared physical custody with the parties' daughter,

CONCILIATION CONFERENCE SUMMARY REPORT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL
PROCEDURE 1915.3-8(b), the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report:
1. The pertinent information pertaining to the children who are the subject of this
litigation is as follows:
Casey Ray Meyers,born October 31, 1999, and Alexandra Paige Meyers,born July 4,
2002.
2. A Conciliation Conference was held on August 7,2013,with the following individuals
in attendance:
The father, Michael R. Meyers, with his counsel, Susan E. Good, Esquire, and the
mother, Hanna Yoder,with her counsel, Andy Norfleet, Esquire.
3. This is a situation where there was an order from 2005 giving the father primary
custody. However,the parties then reconciled and separated again after which mother
had primary custody for a long period of time including the past two years. The older
child Casey is now living with the father as he has suggested he would prefer to live
with the father. Mother is not in agreement with that change as she believes it is in the
best interest for both children to remain with her in Lancaster. A hearing is necessary,
and the Conciliator met with Judge Masland and arranged for a hearing scheduled in
accordance with the attached Order.
4. The Custody Conciliator recommends the entry of an Order in the form as attached.

agreement; and
WHEREAS, the parties request that the following Custody Stipulation and Agreement be

NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. Legal Custody: The parties agree to share legal custody of Casey and Alexandra.
Major decisions concerning the children's health, welfare, education and religion shall be made
by them jointly, after discussion and consultation with each other, with a view toward obtaining
and following a harmonious policy in the children's best interest. Each party agrees not to
impair the other party's right to shared legal custody of the children. Each party agrees not to
attempt to alienate the affections of the children from the other party. Each party shall notify the
other of any activity or circumstances concerning the children that could reasonably be expected
to be of concern to the other. Day to day decisions shall be the responsibility of the party then
having physical custody. With regard to any emergency decisions which must be made, the
party having physical custody of the children at the time of the emergency shall be permitted to
make any immediate decisions necessitated thereby. However, that party shall inform the other
of the emergency and consult with him or her as soon as possible. Each party shall be entitled to
complete and full information from any doctor, dentist, teacher, professional or authority and to
have copies of any reports given to either party as a parent pursuant to 23 Pa.C.S. §5336. To the
extent necessary, either party will, upon presentation thereof, execute authorizations necessary to
allow the other parent to obtain information directly from schools, medical providers or
treatment institutions.
2. Physical Custody: Mother shall have primary physical custody of Casey and
Alexandra. Father shall have periods of partial physical custody as follows:
A. Beginning on August 16, 2013 and during the school year, Father shall have
three consecutive weekends out of four from Friday at 6:30 p.m. until Sunday at 8:00 p.m. On the

custody of Casey.
B. Father shall have extended periods of physical custody, which the parties

basis with the parents exchanging physical custody on Sunday afternoons, or at such other times
agreed upon by the parties.

reasonably accommodate the other parent's request for adjustment to the weekly custodial
schedule to allow for the vacation period. The parents agree to provide advanced written notice
to the other parent of their intended vacation.
Both parents shall provide the other parent of the address and telephone number
where the children will be during any vacation. Prior to the vacation, the parent taking vacation
shall provide the other parent with all relevant travel information, including, but not limited to,

point of intoxication. The parties shall likewise assure, to the extent possible, that other
household members and/or houseguests comply with this prohibition.
7. Communication: Each parent shall make a commitment to communicate directly
with the other parent regarding the children without using the children as intermediaries. Each
:parent shall communicate in a positive manner. Neither parent shall use profanity or hostile
language in addressing the other parent or the children nor shall they permit anyone else in their
household to do so. Each parent shall refrain from encouraging the children to provide reports
about the other parent.
Both parents shall refrain from making derogatory comments about the other
parent in the presence of the children and, to the extent possible, shall prevent third parties from
making such comments in the presence of the children. Each parent shall speak respectfully of
the other whether it is believed the other reciprocates or not. Neither parent shall do or say
anything that may estrange the children from the other parent, or injure the opinion of the
children as to the other parent or hamper the free and natural development of the children's love
and respect for the other parent.
Upon request, parents shall provide one another with a phone number and address
where the children may be contacted at all times. This principle also applies to situations such as
vacations and overnights with friends. Should either parent have the children spend an overnight
at a place other than their primary residence, the other parent shall be given the address and
phone number.
8. Telephone Contact: Both parents shall permit reasonable telephone contact
between the children and the non-custodial parent regardless of whether the other parent initiates
the call or the children request to speak to the other parent.

all family relationships. Both parents shall reasonably accommodate special family events such

option of proposing time or date variations to the other parent when special recreational options
or other unexpected opportunities arise.

another in an effort to foster a loving, meaningful relationship between the children and each
parent. The parties agree that the parents will attend co-parenting counseling, the children will
attend individual counseling and, if necessary, the family will attend family counseling with a
mutually agreed upon counselor. The family shall continue all counseling until the counselor
recommends that the counseling end or until the parties mutually agree to end the counseling.
Until a support agreement or order is entered proportioning responsibility for unreimbursed
medical expenses,the parties agree to share equally the costs of any co-pay for this counseling.
11. Relocation: No party shall relocate with Casey and Alexan dra if such relocation
will significantly impair the ability of the non-relocating party to exercise his or her custodial
rights unless (a) every person who has custodial rights to the children consents to the proposed
relocation or (b) the court approves the proposed relocation. The party seeking relocation must
,
follow the procedures required by 23 Pa.C.S. §5337 as set forth in Exhibit "A" attached to this
Stipulation and Order.

electronic communication, modify or alter the schedule set forth in this Order. Any mutually
agreed upon modification of the terms of this Order shall not affect or diminish the enforceability
of the terms of this Order. Any permanent changes to this Order shall be made in writing,
executed by the parties and entered as an Order of Court.

Order of Court.
