Plaintiff IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA NO. 05-2124 CIVIL TERM CIVIL ACTION - LAW DONNA CODER, v. DANIEL CODER, IN CUSTODY Defendant CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report: 1. The pertinent information concerning the children who are the subject of this litigation is as follows: NAME DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN THE CUSTODY OF Ryan Coder Lauren Coder December 25, 1988 November 7, 1992 Mother and Father Mother and Father 2. Mother filed a Complaint for Custody on April 22, 2005. A Custody Conciliation Conference was held on June 3, 2005. Mother filed a Petition for Special Relief which resulted in an Order of April 28, 2005 prohibiting either party from removing the children from the primary jurisdiction of Cumberland County or removing them from the South Middleton School District. Present for the June 3, 2005 Custody Conciliation Conference were: the Mother, Donna Coder, and her counsel, P. Richard Wagner, Esquire; the Father, Daniel Coder, and his counsel, Jarad W. Handelman, Esquire. 3. Mother's position on Custodv is as follows: Mother opposes the children relocating with Father to Greene County, near Pittsburgh. She represents that the children were in her primary custody from January 2000 through Fall of 2002 and that commencing in Fall of 2002 until the filing of the Petition, the parties shared custody on an alternating basis. Both children are presently enrolled in the South Middleton School District where they have attended throughout their school years. Mother reports that the older child has been acting differently lately. She indicates that friends have contacting her asking "what is up with him." Ryan participates in the school band. However, he did not attend the Memorial Day parade with the band, apparently because he spent time with his Father over that weekend. She does not see it as typical of Ryan's behavior for him to skip a band performance. She also reports that his grades are not as good as they had been. ..,....- _# . NO. 05-2124 CIVIL TERM While she recognizes that he needs to spend time with his Father, she does not see it in his best interest to relocate at this time. Mother's counsel waives objection to Father enrolling Ryan in the school district where Father resides so that last minute arrangements will not need to be made for Ryan's education should a decision be made for Ryan to remain in Greene County, Pennsylvania during the school year. 4. Father's position on custodv is as follows: Father relocated to Greene County which he reports to be the area of Pennsylvania where both sets of the children's Grandparents reside. Father settled on a new home purchase on May 27,2005. Father is employed by Highmark in the Pittsburgh area. Father claims that Mother previously agreed to allowing Ryan to move and that Ryan wants to move to live with him. Father does not want to force Lauren to spend time with him over her objection. Accordingly, it seems that Father is content to allow the children to decide where they reside and how much contact they have with the parents. 5. Because the parties do not have an agreement as to custody of Ryan, counsel have jointly agreed to a half day hearing. Counsel have agreed to have this hearing occur in August 2005. Due to trial schedules and vacation for Mother's counsel, the hearing should not be scheduled the week of August 1, 2005 nor the week of August 22, 2005. In the interim, the parties will continue a shared physical custody schedule which alternates each two (2) weeks. The two (2) week interval was suggested by counsel to reduce the frequency of the trips between Pittsburgh and Boili p' gs. tel ~/()5 Date LA Melissa Peel Greevy, squire Custody Conciliator :252167 DONNA CODER, Plaintiff : IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS : CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA vs. : NO. 05-2124 CIVIL TERM DANIEL CODER, Defendant : CIVIL ACTION - LAW : CUSTODY CUSTODY STIPULATION THIS STIPULATION, made this L day of AW,1--Si ,2005, by and between DONNA R.
