On June 9, 2005 Respondent - Mother filed a Petition for custody at this docket number. A copy of this Petition for Custody is attached hereto as Exhibit 1. 6. The custody conciliation with Jacqueline Verney, Esq. as conciliator is scheduled for July 5, 2005. Respondent is represented by Carol J. Lindsay, Esq. 7. Respondent - Mother's unilateral action of making an unannounced move from the only home that Sierra E. Killian has known since age 3 has substantially altered the status quo of the parties with regard to custody of Sierra E. Killian. Since removing Sierra E. Killian from the marital home, Respondent- Mother has refused to allow Petitioner - Father, or his parents to have contact with Siena E. Killian, and Respondent - Mother has threatened that Petitioner - Father will never see Sierra again if he doesn't agree to her terms of custody. 9. Petitioner - Father, Keith L Killian, has been the primary care provider for Sierra E.

Killian from the only home that she has known since for the past 3 years and from her primary caretaker has unnecessarily inserted Sierra E. Killian into the center of the marital discord between Petitioner and Respondent. 11. At this time of Respondent's domestic unhappiness, Sierra Killian would benefit from the stability that is provided by Petitioner - Father in the home that she has known. 12. It is in the best interest of Sierra E.

WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests the Court to grant shared legal custody of Sierra E. Killian to Petitioner and Respondent and pending the custody conciliation in this case, to award primary physical custody of Sierra E. Killian to Petitioner - Father subject to scheduled partial custody by Respondent - Mother. Respectfully submitted, ANDREWS & JOHNSON By: Tay r P: Andrews, Esq.

KILLIAN, :IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF :CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA Plaintiff vs. :CIVIL ACTION - DIVORCE :NO. 05-2090 CIVIL TERM KEITH L. KILLIAN Defendant :IN CUSTODY ANSWER TO DEFENDANT'S PETITION FOR SPECIAL RELIEF NOW COMES Linda E. Killian, Plaintiff above, by and through her counsel SAIDIS SHUFF, FLOWER & LINDSAY ATTORNEYS-AT-LAW 26 W. High Street Carlisle. PA Saidis, Shuff, Flower & Lindsay and answers the Defendant's Petition for Special Relief as follows: 1. Admitted. 2. Admitted. 3. No answer required. 4. Admitted. 5. Admitted. 6. Admitted 7. Admitted in part and denied in part. Admitted that Respondent moved from the marital home taking the child with her. By way of further answer Respondent had advised Petitioner that she was moving from the marital home, had prepared with Petitioner a list of items of personal property which each were to retain and had sought, unsuccessfully, Respondent's participation in a custody evaluation. By the way of still further answer, Respondent's removal from the marital home at a time not previously announced to the Petitioner is justified by the actions of the Petitioner as more fully set out in the Protection from Abuse petition to be filed with this court on or about the same day as this answer, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A". SAIDIS SHUFF, FLOWER & LINDSAY 26 W. High Street Carlisle, PA 8. Denied. By way of further answer, Respondent provided attorney for Petitioner with a copy of a custody complaint filed on the same day as Respondent moved from the marital home, accompanied by a letter attached hereto as Exhibit "B", offering to permit Petitioner to have contact with Sierra. By way of further answer, in late March 2005, when Respondent first advised Petitioner that she wanted to divorce, he took the child Sierra to his mother's house and withheld her from the Respondent for 3 days. As a result, Respondent was justified in her belief that a failure to provide the child to Petitioner without a court order would result in his retaining the child. Denied that Respondent ever threatened Petitioner that if he didn't agree to her terms of custody he would never see the child again. 9. Denied. Petitioner has never been the primary care provider for Sierra Killian. By way of further answer, from the date of Sierra's birth up until the present Respondent has been primary caregiver of the child in the following particulars: provided her to nearly all of her doctors appointments, provided all care for the child including baths, night-time rituals, and social contacts such as library time, dance class, girl scouts, school, and, most notably, provided the child a therapist, against Petitioner's wishes, but with his participation when Petitioner's behavior caused the child to fear him. 10. Denied. On the contrary, Respondent's removal of Sierra from the marital home has moved Sierra from the threatening behavior of the Petitioner and provided a safe haven for the child. 11. Denied. On the contrary, at the present time, Sierra's best interest is served by remaining with the primary caregiver of the child and enjoying the stability and quiet which results from Respondent's care. 12. Denied. By way of further answer it is in Sierra's best interest to remain with Respondent until such time as a conciliation conference and the return of the child's therapist, Georgie Anderson, who is on vacation until June 27, 2005. It is further in Sierra's interest to have the disputes between her parents submitted to Arnold Shienvold of Reigler, Shienvold and Associates for a thorough custody evaluation and, after such an evaluation, the presentation to the court a report to guide the court in this matter. NEW MATTER SAIDIS SHUFF, FLOWER & LINDSAY ATPOENEYS-AT•LAW 26 W. High Street Carlisle. PA 13. On January 3, 1994 this Honorable Court entered a Protective Order under the Protection from Abuse Act. A copy of the December 23, 1993 Temporary Protective Order, the Petition for Protection from Abuse, and the final order are attached hereto as Exhibit "C". 14. Although the prior protective order is eleven years old, the behavior of Petitioner in the instant case is consistent with his previous behavior of blocking Respondent's exit and the child's exit as set out on Exhibit "A". 15. From Sierra's birth on January 4, 1999 until March 2005, Respondent has been the primary caregiver as set, out briefly, in paragraph 9 above. 16. In late March of 2005, Respondent advised Petitioner that she wished a divorce. 17. Since late March 2005 until the parties physical separation on June 9, 2005, Petitioner has behaved in an aggressive and harassing manner, removing the child from the marital home for a period of three days as he admitted set out on Exhibit 2 to the Petition for Special Relief. Petitioner has made it a point, contrary to all his previous behavior, to keep the child with him at every available time. Plaintiff's Exhibit 2 avers times Petitioner spent with the child but fails to note that the Respondent- was there at the same time, in almost all instances. Additionally, Petitioner's Exhibit 2, in the statements which are too tedious to detail here, reflect involvement with the child in the last 3 months which were entirely absent from the first 5 years of the child's life. Further, for the last 3 months, the Petitioner has acted contrary to the child's interest by screaming, yelling and threatening Respondent in front of the child for hours daily, despite the Respondent's repeated requests to refrain from such behavior because it alarmed and frightened the child, Additionally, it was Respondent who insisted that the child, in this stressful time, would benefit from a therapist, Georgie Anderson, in front of whom Petitioner has heard the child express fear of her father. It has been Ms. Anderson's advice to Sierra that she speak up when she is afraid, and the child has begun to do that in front of Petitioner causing Petitioner to retaliate by telling the child what to say and by forcefully holding the child in her room. WHEREFORE, Respondent prays this Honorable Court to dismiss the Petition for Emergency Relief and to send the matter to conciliation.

BARNER, IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF Plaintiff CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA CIVIL ACTION - LAW VS. NO. CIVIL 1993 KEITH LEE KILLIAN, PROTECTION FROM ABUSE Defendant PETITION FOR PROTECTIVE ORDER RELIEF UNDER THE PROTECTION FROM ABUSE ACT 23 P.S. SECTION 6101 A. ABUSE 1. The plaintiff is an adult individual whose permanent address is 130 East Garfield Street, Apt. 4, Shippensburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, 17257. 2. The defendant is an adult individual residing at 115 East Garfield Street, Shippensburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, 17257. 3. The defendant is the plaintiff's former intimate partner. 4. Since approximately November 1989, the defendant has attempted to cause and has intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly caused bodily injury to the plaintiff, and by physical menace has placed the plaintiff in fear of imminent serious bodily injury. This has included but is not limited to the following specific instances of abuse: a. On or about December 5, 1993, when the plaintiff opened the door of her apartment, the defendant, who had been waiting for the plaintiff at the door, forced his way into her apartment. When the defendant refused to leave and the plaintiff went to call the police, the defendant grabbed the phone from the plaintiff's hands, ripped the cord, pushed her onto the bed, threw the phone against the headboard of the bed so forcefully that the phone broke. The plaintiff yelled for her neighbor to call the police. The defendant picked up the plaintiff's dog and threw him against the closet door. The defendant would not let the plaintiff leave the room blocking her exit with his body. The plaintiff ran to the living room to get her keys and the defendant ran in between her and the door, screamed at her and again blocked her exit. The defendant picked the plaintiff up by her jacket, carried her across the room, and threw her onto the couch. The Mid-Cumberland Valley Regional Police arrived and arrested the defendant for simple assault and criminal mischief. The plaintiff was seen at the Chambersburg Hospital and treated for swelling and bruising to her shoulder. b. In or around May 1992, the plaintiff begged the defendant to stop the car and let her out because she feared for her safety since he was driving while intoxicated. When the defendant stopped at a stop sign, the plaintiff opened the door to get out and the defendant stepped on the accelerator causing the plaintiff who was in the process of exiting the car to fear for her safety, forcing her to get back in the car to avoid being thrown to the road, and causing her pain and scratching about her leg. When the plaintiff and defendant arrived home, the defendant threw things around the room, causing the plaintiff to fear for her safety and call the police. C. In or around April 1991, the defendant became angry and pushed the plaintiff backward with enough force to lift her off of her feet and cause her to fly through the air and hit her back against a door. The defendant then grabbed the plaintiff by the throat and held her against the wall raising her off of the floor. The plaintiff was able to escape and contact the police. The plaintiff suffered bruising to her back and redness to her neck. d. In or around February 1991, while the plaintiff and defendant were arguing and the plaintiff was driving, the defendant became angry and hit the plaintiff in the throat with the side of his hand two times. The second time the plaintiff tried to block the defendant's hand from hitting her throat and the defendant bent her finger backward. When the plaintiff attempted to get out of the car, the defendant grabbed her by the hair and pulled a clump of hair from her head. The plaintiff suffered soreness to her finger and throat. e. On several occassions, the defendant blocked the plaintiff's exit with his body. The plaintiff has told the defendant that the relationship is over but the defendant watches her from his apartment and waits for her to come home. 5. The plaintiff believes and therefore avers that she will be in immediate and present danger of abuse from the defendant, and that she is in need of protection from such abuse. 6. The plaintiff desires that the defendant be restrained from entering her place of employment, having any contact with her, harassing or stalking the plaintiff, and from harassing the plaintiff's relatives. B. EXCLUSIVE POSSESSION 7. The home from which the plaintiff is asking the Court to exclude the defendant is rented in the name of LINDA E. BARKER, and the defendant has never resided there. C. LOSSES 8. The plaintiff asks for attorney fees to be paid to Legal Services, Inc., pursuant to the Protection from Abuse Act. D. STATUS TO PROCEED IN FORMA PAUPERIS 9. The defendant is employed at Hoffman Mills and has an annual salary of approximately $19,000. 10. The plaintiff currently is employed at Blue Shield and receives approximately $16,000.00 per year but has numerous expenses. 11. The plaintiff does not have funds available to pay the fees for filing and service. WHEREFORE, pursuant to the provisions of the "Protection from Abuse Act" of October 7, 1976, 23 P. S. Section 6101 et sec., as amended, the plaintiff prays this Honorable Court to grant the following relief: A. Grant a Temporary Order pursuant to the "Protection from Abuse Act:" 1. Requiring the defendant to refrain from abusing the plaintiff or placing her in fear of abuse. 2. Requiring the defendant to refrain from having any contact with the plaintiff, including, but not limited to, restraining the defendant from entering the plaintiff's place of employment, from harassing or stalking the s plaintiff, and from harassing the plaintiff's relatives. 3. Ordering the defendant to stay away from the residence located at 130 East Garfield Street, Shippensburg, which the parties have never shared. 4. Ordering the defendant to stay away from any residence the plaintiff may in the future establish for herself. B. Schedule a hearing in accordance with the provisions of the "Protection from Abuse Act," and, after such hearing, enter an order to be in effect for a period of one year: 1. Requiring the defendant to refrain from abusing the plaintiff or placing her in fear of abuse. 2. Requiring the defendant to refrain from having any contact with the plaintiff, including, but not limited to, restraining the defendant from entering the plaintiff's place of employment, from harassing or stalking the plaintiff, and from harassing the plaintiff's relatives. 3.

Ordering the defendant to stay away from any residence the plaintiff may in the future establish for herself. 5.

The plaintiff further asks that this Petition be filed and served without payment of costs, pending a further order at the hearing, and that a copy of this Petition and Order be delivered to the Mid-Cumberland Valley Regional and Camp Hill Police Departments as the Police Departments with jurisdiction to enforce this Order. The plaintiff prays for such other relief as may be just and proper.

KILLIAN, : PACSES NO. 329107686 Defendant/Petitioner: DOCKET NO. 05-2090 CIVIL SUPPORT MASTER'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION Following a hearing held before the undersigned Support Master on December 12, 2005 the following report and recommendation are made: FINDINGS OF FACT The Petitioner is Keith L. Killian, who resides at 203 Whitmer Road, Shippensburg, Pennsylvania. He is the Defendant in the divorce action and will hereafter be referred to as "the Husband." 2. The Respondent is Linda E. Killian, who resides at 320 East Burd Street, Apartment 2, Shippensburg, Pennsylvania. She is the Plaintiff in the divorce action and will hereafter be referred to as "the Wife." 3. The parties were married on April 27, 1996. 4. On April 22, 2005 the Wife filed a complaint in divorce. 5. The Husband filed an answer to said complaint wherein he made a claim for alimony pendente lite. 6. The parties separated on or about June 9, 2005 when the wife moved from the marital residence. 7. On September 26, 2005 the Husband requested his claim for alimony pendente lite be referred to the Domestic Relations Section for action. 8. The parties have one child, Sierra E. Killian, born January 4, 1999. 9. The Husband is employed by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and has a net monthly income of $1,729.00. 10.The Wife is employed by Highmark Inc. and has a net monthly income of $4,122.00.1 ' The parties stipulated to the net monthly incomes of both for the purposes of this hearing. EXHIBIT "A" 0&, I 11. The Husband continues to reside in the marital residence. 12. The marital residence is subject to a mortgage with a monthly payment of $1,749.98. 13.The Husband has been making the monthly payments on said mortgage. 14.The Husband has control of a joint checking account which had a balance at the end of March, 2005 in excess of $42,000.00. 15.The Husband has been utilizing said account to keep the mortgage current. 16. Said account had a balance at the time of the hearing of approximately $25,000.00. 17. The Husband has control over a joint checking account valued at $3,558.00. 18.The Husband has control over the parties' 2004 federal income tax return of $7,000.00. 19. The Wife has control of a savings account with a balance of $631.00. DISCUSSION "Alimony pendente lite means alimony or maintenance during the pendency of a divorce proceeding so as to enable a dependent spouse to proceed with or defend against the action." Jayne v. Jayne, 663 A.2d 169, 176 (Pa. Super. 1995). "APL is based on the need of one party to have equal financial resources to pursue a divorce proceeding when, in theory, the other party has major assets which are the financial sinews of domestic warfare." DeMasi v. DeMasi, 597 A.2d 101, 104 (Pa. Super. 1993). Factors to consider in determining entitlement to an award of alimony pendente lite include the separate estate and income of the claimant, the ability of the other party to pay, and the character, situation and surroundings of the parties. Litmans v. Litmans, 673 A.2d 382 (Pa. Super. 1996). The claimant must demonstrate the need for maintenance and professional services during the pendency of the proceedings. DeWalt v. DeWalt, 529 A.2d 508 (Pa. Super. 1987). If entitlement to an award is found, the amount of the award is calculated pursuant to the support guidelines. Little v. Little, 47 Cumberland L.J. 131 (1998). There is no dispute that the Husband's income is significantly less than the Wife's. The parties stipulated that the Husband earns $1,729.00 net while the wife earns $4,122.00 per month. The Husband claims monthly expenses of approximately $3,200.00 of which $1,755.00 is the monthly mortgage payment on the marital residence where he continues to reside. The Wife claims monthly expenses totaling $2,550.00. The Wife raises two defenses with respect to the iissue of entitlement. She argues first that the Husband has sufficient assets available to him to maintain himself and to defend the divorce action. Specifically she points to the joint account which the Husband has depleted from $42,000.00 to $26,000.00. While it is true that APL is not appropriate where the claimant has acquired sufficient assets or income which will sufficiently equalize the financial ability of the parties to litigate the divorce action, Jayne v. Jayne, Supra., in this case it has not been established that the assets in the Husband's control are his assets. All bank accounts which the Husband now controls were jointly owned at the time of :separation. Consequently the Wife may in all likelihood claim these accounts to be marital. The holding in Jayne does not preclude the award of APL in this case. The Wife argues also that because the Husband has not consented to the divorce, he is not entitled to an award of APL. While it is true that a Plaintiff in a divorce action "[s]hould not be allowed to withhold [his or her] her consent to the divorce while simultaneously seeking alimony pendente lite," Hoffman v. Hoffman, 504 A.2d 356, 358 (Pa. Super. 1986), this Master is aware of no appellate authority which precludes a Defendant in a divorce action from seeking APL without consenting to the divorce. The Wife relies upon Bowser v. Bowser, 18 Pa. D.&C. 4th (233 1993), a Crawford County case, in support of her argument. In Bowser, the Wife was the Defendant in the support action and would not consent to the divorce. She had been awarded $970.00 per month in spousal support and had also been awarded $200.00 per month in alimony pendente lite. The APL award was limited in duration to three months.2 She subsequently petitioned for additional APL. In denying the Wife's request for additional APL the court stated: The Defendant should not suffer because :she is dependent and she should be permitted to properly defend this action. She is not obligated to agree to a divorce under any circumstances. On the other hand the purpose of alimony pendente lite is to permit her to defend the action. Where the action remains stagnant she does not have any economic outlay that is connected to the divorce action. Furthermore she cannot delay the proceedings to receive alimony pendente lite indefinitely. 18 Pa. D.&C. 4th at 236-237. The court also noted that the wife continued to receive the spousal support of $970.00 monthly. In the present case the Husband has not filed and has no present intention to file an affidavit consenting to the entry of a divorce decree. He cannot be compelled to do so. However, an award of alimony pendente lite is intended to cover only "the period that the proceeding may with due diligence be prosecuted to conclusion." Wargo v. Wargo, 154 A.2d 339, 341 (Pa. Super. 1959), quoting Koehler v. Koehler, 73 Pa. Super. 41 (1919). Z The case predated the rule precluding simultaneous awards of spousal support and APL. See Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-1(c). This is not a complex divorce case. The equitable: distribution involves a home, some vehicles, some bank accounts, 401(k)'s and IRA's, and some household goods. The economic issues could reasonably be prosecuted to conclusion in six months. A recommendation will be made that an award of alimony pendente lite be made to the Husband for a period of six months commencing September 26, 2005. The amount of the APL award is calculated pursuant to Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16- 4(e) because the Wife who is the primary custodial parent of the parties' child, is the obligor in the claim for alimony pendente lite. The calculation is a four step process. In step one the APL obligation of the Wife to the Husband is calculated based upon their net monthly incomes without dependent children. The result is $957.00.3 In step two the $957.00 is deducted from the Wife's income; and added to the Husband's income. This results in the Wife having $3,165.00 and the Husband having $2,686.00. In step three a child support obligation is made utilizing the respective incomes from step two. This results in a monthly obligation of the Husband of $372.00.4 In step four the child support obligation from step three is deducted from the APL obligation in step one with the difference awarded in this case to the Husband as alimony pendente lite. That amount is $605.00 per month.5 RECOMMENDATION A. The Wife shall pay to the Pennsylvania State Collection and Disbursement Unit as alimony pendente lite the sum of $605.00 per month. B. The Wife shall pay to the Pennsylvania State Collection and Disbursement Unit the additional sum of $95.00 per month on arrearages. C. The effective date of this order is September 26, 2005. s $4,122.00 - $1,729.00 = $2,393.00. $2,393.00 x .40 = $957.00. 4 See Exhibit "A" for the calculation. s No mortgage adjustment under Pa. R.C.P. 1910.16-6(e) was utilized to calculate the APL obligation in step one. The trier of fact has discretion whether to utilize this adjustment. Because martial funds are being used by the Husband to pay the mortgage on the marital property, this Master has elected not to employ this rule. D. This order shall be suspended March 26, 2006.

ANDREWS RONALD E. JOHNSON May 11, 2005 Carol Lindsay, Esquire 26 West High Street Carlisle, PA 17013 RE: Killian Dear Carol: MAY 1 2 2009 Telephone (717) 243-01 Telefax (717) 243-00 want to reemphasize my email. Mr. Killian is willing to now work to define and value the marital estate. He is not prepared to negotiate a settlement. This domestic uproar has happened so fast and with so little advance notice that we feel it is necessary to just slow down. Mr. Killian indicates that he had no inkling of Mrs. Kiillian's unhappiness until this past winter. He estimates it to first have been expressed in February. The suddenness of Mrs. Killian's actions without adequate explanation prompts concern that there is an unidentified cause for this turmoil. Rather than rushing into custody evaluations by Dr. Sheinvold, Mr. Killian is anxious to know that Mrs. Killian has had a complete physical. He still loves Mrs. Killian and he will not rush into actions with permanent consequences without there being adequate time to undcrstand the cause of events. From the history that t have received from Mr. Kil liar this strikes me as prudent. Mr. and Mrs. Killian had one joint counseling session. Mr. Killian indicates that the motivation for Mrs. Killian is still unclear after that session. Mrs. Killian apparently explained that she was "co-dependent" but there was no explanation as the meaning of this term in this context. She complained that he was too negative and that he brought her down. This does not explain this sudden desire to end the marriage. As experienced practitioners you and I both know the high cost of marital breakups, particularly when there is a young child involved. I am not referring to financial costs, but rather emotional damage may leave life-long scars even if healed. Mr. Killian wants to avoid this damage if at all possible. 11-01t v_? Letter to Carol Lindsey, Esq. May 11, 2005 Page 2 I enclose first quarter statements from two separate IRA accounts registered to Mr. Killian. I will seek further explanation as to the source of these funds and also the existence and source of the Keeler and Danner fund referenced on the spreadsheet that I previously provided. I also enclose a copy of Mr. Killian's recent pay statement. He has only been employed by the State since August 25, 2003 so he is not vested in any retirement benefit. I will seek a statement of his contributions. I don't believe Mr. Killian has any other retirement benefits, but I shall seek confirmation as well. I look forward to receiving comparable information from Mrs. Killian. For the time being, Mrs. Killian should stop pressuring Mr. Killian to list the family home for sale or to agree to a custody arrangement, particularly one where he surrenders custody. Mr. Killian does not see this as appropriate at this time since it is his desire to preserve this marriage. Sincerely yours, P. Andrews, Esq. TPA: ss Enclosure cc: Keith Killian Killian v.

KILLIAN CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA DOMESTIC RELATIONS SECTION PACSES NO. 329107686 05-2090 CIVIL TERM IN RE: HUSBAND'S EXCEPTIONS TO MASTER'S REPORT BEFORE EBERT, J. OPINION and ORDER OF COURT EBERT, J., April 5, 2006. This divorce case was commenced on April 22, 2005. For disposition at this time are Keith L. Killian's (hereinafter "Husband") exceptions to a report of the Cumberland County Support Master awarding him alimony pendente lite (APL) of $605.00 per month for a period of six months, effective September 26, 2005. The exceptions are as follows: 1. The Master erred by failing to award an additional amount to assist in the payment of the parties' mortgage. 2. The Master erred in limiting the award of APL to a period of six months.' For the reasons stated in this opinion, Husband's exceptions will be dismissed, and the interim order of court issued on December 21, 2005, in accordance with the support master's recommendations, will be entered as a final order. i Husband's Exceptions to Master's Report and Recommendations, filed December 28, 2005. STATEMENT OF FACTS Linda E. Killian (hereinafter "Wife") and Keith L. Killian were married on April 27, 1996. The parties have one child, Sierra E. Killian, born January 4, 1999. Wife filed a complaint for divorce on April 22, 2005, and the parties separated on or about June 9, 2005, when the wife moved from the marital residence. On June 10, 2005, Husband filed a Petition for Spousal Support. Wife denied liability and a hearing was held before the Support Master who issued a recommended order denying spousal support. Exceptions were timely filed by Husband and briefed by the parties. This court upheld the Master's denial of support. Husband then filed a Petition for APL on September 26, 2005. An office conference was held and Wife timely filed a request for a hearing de novo. That hearing was held on December 19, 2005, at which time the parties stipulated that the transcript from the support hearing could be incorporated into the record and that Wife had net monthly income of $4,122.00, and Husband had net monthly income of $1,729.00.2 After the hearing, on December 21, 2005, upon the recommendations of the Master, an Interim Order of Court was entered awarding APL for a period of six months, effective September 26, 2005, and suspended March 26, 2006.3 There is no dispute that the husband's income is significantly less than the Wife's. Furthermore, the Husband claims monthly expenses of approximately $3,200.00, of which $1,755.00 is the monthly mortgage payment on the marital residence where he continues to reside.4 The Husband has control of a joint checking 2 N.T. 3, Master's Hearing, December 12, 2005 (hereinafter N.T. 3 Interim Order of Court, December 21, 2005, Guido, J. 4 Support Master's Report, Petitioner's Exhibits 1, 2, filed January 3, 2006 (hereinafter Master's Report) account which had a balance at the end of March 2005 in excess of $42,000.00 which he has been depleting to keep the mortgage current.5 The Husband also has control of a joint checking account valued at over $3,500.00 and the parties' 2004 federal income tax refund of $7,000.000. The Wife claims monthly expenses totaling $2,550.006 and has control of a savings account with a balance in March 2005 of $631.00 and also has a 401(k) plan.' At the time of the hearing on December 12, 2005, Husband was current on both the mortgage and his attorneys' fees, while the Wife owed in excess of $6,000.00 in legal costs.8 Wife also has primary custody of the parties' seven-year-old daughter. At the hearing the Husband expressed his continued desire to avoid both the divorce and placing the marital home for sale even though it would eliminate the mortgage payment that is obviously a serious financial burden upon him.9 In fact, based on the net incomes of the parties and the monthly mortgage payment, the stark reality is that it is unlikely that either party following a divorce would be able to maintain the mortgage payments. In awarding the Husband APL for a period of six months, the Master reasoned that "[t]his is not a complex divorce case."10 The equitable distribution involves the marital home, four vehicles (one, used by the Wife, encumbered by a lien), some bank accounts, a 401(k) and some IRAs, and some household goods." The Master determined that these economic issues could "reasonably be prosecuted to completion s N.T. 8-9. 6 Master's Report, Respondent's Exhibit 5. 7 N.T. 18, 19. s N.T. 11, 22. s N.T. 11. 10 Master's Report, p. 4. if Id. in six months." 12 Furthermore, in calculating the monthly APL amount, the Master elected not to employ the mortgage adjustment allowed by Pa.R.C.P. 1910.16-6(e), because the Husband was using marital funds to pay for the mortgage on the marital property. 13 DISCUSSION 1. Standard of Review On a review of a support master's report, the report should be accorded the "fullest consideration," particularly with respect to the credibility of the witnesses. Goodman v. Goodman, 375 Pa. Super. 504, 507, 544 A.2d 1033, 1035 (1988). However, the report is advisory only, and when exceptions are filed the court must conduct its own review of the evidence taken to determine whether the master's recommendations to which exceptions are taken are proper. Id., Rorabaugh v. Rorabaugh, 302 Pa. Super. 1, 3, 448 A.2d 64, 66 (1979). II. Statement of Law APL is defined as "an order of temporary support granted to a spouse during the pendency of a divorce or annulment proceeding." 23 Pa.C.S. §3103. It is intended to ensure that the dependent spouse has equal financial resources to maintain or defend the divorce action where the other party has major assets which are the financial sinews of domestic warfare. Spink v. Spink, 422 Pa. Super. 126, 130, 619 A.2d 277, 279 (1992), DeMasi v. DeMasi, 408 Pa. Super. 414, 420, 597 A.2d 101 (1991), Krakovsky v. Krakovsky, 400 Pa. Super. 260, 267, 583 A.2d 485, 488 (1990). ,2 Id. 13 Id. at FN 5. In adjudicating a claim for APL, a court should consider the following factors: the ability of the other party to pay; the separate estate and income of the petitioning party; and the character, situation, and surroundings of the parties. Litmans v. Litmans, 449 Pa. Super. 209, 221, 673 A.2d 382, 387 (1996). Historically, the mere fact that one party earns less than the other has not automatically entitled him or her to APL. Sutliff v. Sutliff, 326 Pa. Super. 496, 500, 474 A.2d 599, 600 (1984) (overruled on other grounds). Additionally, a petitioner "[s]hould not be allowed to withhold [his or] her consent to the divorce while simultaneously seeking APL." Hoffman v. Hoffman, 350 Pa. Super. 280, 283-84, 504 A.2d 356, 358 (1986). A. Limiting APL to a Six Month Period The Husband asks the court to extend the award of APL for so long as is needed to defend the underlying divorce action. By definition, a dependent spouse is entitled to receive APL for as long as is needed to defend the divorce action - and here the Support Master determined that no more than six months should have been necessary to resolve the relatively straightforward economic issues involved in this case. However, with the six month period about to expire, the Husband has not filed and has not expressed a present intention to file an affidavit consenting to the entry of a divorce decree. He argues that the six month timeframe determined by the Master assumes that the Husband will "surrender his defense and consent to the divorce that he has never wanted." Such refusal is within the Husband's right, and he cannot be compelled to consent. However, an award of APL is intended only to cover the period which the divorce proceedings may, with due diligence, be prosecuted to a conclusion. Bowser v. Bowser, 18 Pa. D. & C. 4m 233 (C.P. 1993), Wargo v. Wargo, 190 Pa. Super. 356,154 A.2d 339 (1959). As the Bowser court in Crawford County, Pennsylvania, reasoned in a similar case, while the dependent spouse should not be forced to do something he does not want to do, solely because of economics, it is equally true that the Husband should not use the receipt of temporary alimony to cause him to delay the divorce proceedings. Bowser v. Bowser, 18 Pa. D. & C. 4th at 236-37. The Husband here would have APL extended until either the granting of the divorce or until the culmination of a two-year separation - meaning that his continued inaction or decision to delay proceedings to which he is opposed would allow him to receive more money. This cannot be the rational result intended by the award of APL. The Bowser court went on to state that "[e]ntitlement to APL needs more than an action pending; it, by definition, requires that the action be proceeding with some degree of speed. Id. at 237. While the Husband cannot be forced into doing something he doesn't want to do, neither should his inaction be rewarded. The Master awarded APL for a period of time sufficient to resolve the economic issues. Had the Husband chosen to participate in the pending litigation, he was awarded APL sufficient to do so. Additionally, the Husband has access to the joint bank account, which he uses to keep the mortgage current and ostensibly to pay his legal fees as well, since at the time of the hearing he had no legal expenses outstanding. The Wife, on the other hand, owes over $6,000.00 in legal costs and used her credit cards for any retainers or amounts paid thus far. While the income of the parties is an important factor, so are the ability of the other pay and the character, situation, and surroundings of the parties. Litmans v. Litmans, 449 Pa. Super. 209, 221, 673 A.2d 382, 387 (1996). The Husband was awarded enough APL to cover the time necessary for this action to be resolved, with due diligence. His inaction may not be punished, but neither does it warrant an extension of APL, particularly where he has access to the majority of remaining joint bank accounts. B. Exclusion of the Mortgage Adjustment from the APL Award The Husband next argues for the application of the mortgage adjustment to the amount of the APL award, pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1910.16-6(e). The Master declined to do so on the basis of the Husband's access to the joint bank account and use of those marital funds to keep the mortgage on the marital home current. The trier of fact has discretion whether to utilize adjustments to the basic support obligation calculation determined by the guidelines based on a number of factors. Pa.R.C.P. 1910-16-5. Among those factors are unusual needs and assets of the parties. Id. The Husband relies on two cases in this request, in both of which the Superior Court merely affirms the discretion of the lower court in applying the mortgage adjustment, and in both of which, the final determination of support is at issue, not the temporary assistance APL is meant to offer. Although spousal support and APL are calculated using the same guidelines, they are distinct concepts serving distinct purposes. Horn v. Horn, 388 Pa. Super. 46, 48, 564 A.2d 995, 996 (1989). In 1989, Pennsylvania adopted Rule of Civil Procedure 1910-16-1, providing that the support guidelines were to be used in determining the amount of APL to be awarded. In addition, Rule 1910.1 provides that "the rules of this chapter govern all civil actions or proceedings brought in the court of common pleas to enforce a duty of support, or an obligation to pay [APL]." Based on this principle, the Husband argues that, where an application of the guidelines to the parties' net incomes would yield a sum owing to a claimant for APL, an award should be made without regard to an initial determination of entitlement in accordance with the traditional prerequisites for APL. The 1994 comment to Rule 1910.1 conflicts with this reasoning. It states that "[n]othing in this rule should be interpreted to eliminate the distinctions between spousal support and alimony pendente lite which are established by case law." Instead, as the Honorable Edgar B. Bayley of this court observed, "[w]hat has been erased regarding the distinction between spousal support and alimony pendente lite is the way that the amount of an alimony pendente lite is calculated, not the distinct concepts that underlie those causes of action." Little v. Little, 47 Cumberland L.J. 131, 134 (1998). Merely because the trier of fact has the discretion to apply the mortgage adjustment in calculating APL does not necessarily make it appropriate in every situation in which one party is solely responsible for the mortgage payment. Not only does the Husband have sole access to the marital funds from which to pay the mortgage, he has also chosen to refuse to cooperate in the sale of the residence despite the inability of either party alone to pay the mortgage based on their individual incomes. The mortgage payment on the marital home exceeds the Husband's monthly income. In this case, the Master's determination to elect not to apply the mortgage adjustment was proper and Husband's exceptions are dismissed. ORDER OF COURT AND NOW, this 5th day of April, 2006, upon consideration of Husband's exceptions to the Support Master's Report and Recommendations, and for the reasons contained in the accompanying opinion, the exceptions are dismissed. IT IS ORDERED AND DIRECTED that the wife shall pay to the Pennsylvania State Collection and Disbursement Unit as alimony pendent elite the sum of $605.00 per month. The effective date of this order is September 26, 2005 and the order shall be suspended March 26, 2006. BY THE COURT, "\ M.L. Ebert, Jr., J. Taylor P.

KILLIAN, Defendant IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA CIVIL ACTION - LAW NO. 2005-2090 IN CUSTODY THE HONORABLE J. WESLEY OLER, JR. PETITION FOR MODIFICATION OF CUSTODY 1. Petitioner is Linda E. Killian, an adult individual currently residing at 8 Briarcliff Drive, Shippensburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17257. 2. Respondent is Keith L. Killian, an adult individual currently residing at 16 Creek Lane, Newville, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17241. 3. The parties are the natural parents of one child, namely, Sierra E. Killian, born January 4, 1999. The child was born during wedlock. For the past five years or since the child's birth, the child has resided with the FIA3WER & IZA3s" MIENNOW 26 West High Street Carlisle, PA following persons at the following address for the following periods of time. NAME ADDRESS DATE Linda E. Killian 8 Briarcliff Drive 2005 to present on shared Shippensburg, PA 17257 custody basis Keith L. Killian 16 Creek Lane 2005 to November 2008 Newville, PA 17241 on shared custody basis Keith L. Killian and 16 Creek Lane November 2008 to present Shelly Killian Newville, PA 17241 on shared custody basis The natural mother of the child is Petitioner, who resides as aforesaid. She is single. The natural father of the child is Respondent, who resides as aforesaid. He is married. 4. The relationship of the Petitioner to the child is that of natural mother. The Petitioner currently resides with the child at issue on a shared custody basis. 5. The relationship of the Respondent to the child is that of natural father. The Respondent currently resides with the child on a shared custody basis, and with his new wife, Shelly Killian. 6. The parties currently are subject to an Order of Court dated August 2, 2005, which was entered by agreement of the parties. A copy of this Order is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "A." 7. The parties have been following the terms of this Order consistently, as they relate to periods of physical custody on a week to week basis. 8. The best interest and permanent welfare of the children would be served by granting the relief request because: a) Since the entry of the Order, circumstances of the parties have changed such that Petitioner believes it is appropriate for the terms of their custody Order to be modified so that she exercises primary physical custody of their daughter. b) Since the entry of the prior Order, the parties have participated in a custody evaluation with Dr. Arnold Shienvold, dated May 3, 2006. C) At the time of the evaluation, it was recommended that Petitioner remain the primary custodian, with the current schedule remaining in place, so long FLOWER & L1IVDSAY AIKENNOW 26 West High Street Carlisle, PA as some specific parental behaviors were modified. d) At the time of separation and during the evaluation process, Respondent projected his feelings and attitudes regarding Petitioner toward the child; he consistently made negative comments about Petitioner in front of child. e) Respondent continues to make negative comments about Petitioner in front of the child, therefore continuing to project his negative feelings and attitudes regarding Petitioner toward the child. f) Due to Respondent's negative behavior and attempts to alienate Petitioner, the child expresses negative feelings about her mother. g) At the time of the evaluation, it was recommended that if it should FLOWER & UNDSAY 26 West High Street Carlisle, PA ever occur that the child would express negative feelings about her mother secondary to Respondent's behavior, it would be necessary to limit Respondent's time with the child. h) Presently, Respondent has refused to communicate directly with Petitioner for approximately the last three months, sending only minimal responses through the child and only when necessary. i) Respondent discusses parenting issues with the child frequently. j) During the week of March 16, Petitioner called Respondent to request custody of the child on Easter day and to request that the parties attend co- parenting counseling; Respondent did not return the phone call. Upon the child's return to Petitioner's home for her regularly scheduled period of custody, the child told her mother she "hated her, [mother] was mean, and that Daddy wanted to have more time with her on Easter." These were not things that Petitioner discussed with the child and things only Respondent could have discussed with her. k) On the Easter holiday, Petitioner called Respondent to verify the schedule, whereupon Respondent became angry and requested additional time with the child for himself, yelling at Petitioner. When the parties exchanged custody at the designated time, the child requested to stay at her paternal grandmother's for an overnight visit, to which Petitioner did not allow. The child became very upset, cried and yelled at Petitioner, "I hate you, you're mean, you're selfish and you always get your way, you want to keep me from my Dad and my Nanny, Daddy lets you have me any time you want and you never let him have me when he asks, Daddy needs more time with me because there are two sets of families to visit now." 1) Respondent continues to make derogatory remarks and express his own negative feelings about Petitioner of this nature in front of the child, thereby encouraging the child to have negative feelings about her mother. m) Counseling for the child was initiated by agreement of the parties with Mary Jo Hardick on December 3, 2008. n) On or about April 14, 2009, the child's counselor contacted Petitioner to advise that she had been contacted by Respondent and that he had rescinded his permission for counseling for the child. o) Respondent did not discuss with Petitioner first the decision to discontinue counseling for the child; he did this without Petitioner's consent. P) Petitioner desires for the child to continue with counseling since she believes that the child's negative statements are an expression of her father's continuing negative statements about Petitioner in her presence and are having an extremely negative consequence on their mother/daughter relationship, and because with the continued counseling Petitioner believed the child was making progress with her behavior issues, though they are far from being resolved. q) At the time that the counselor indicated to Petitioner that Respondent FLOWER IS,& UNDS" 26 West High Street Carlisle, PA rescinded his permission for child's counseling to continue, the counselor suggested that the parties attempt co-parenting counseling if continued issues between them were not resolved. r) Petitioner has requested that she and Respondent participate in co- parent counseling but Respondent does not cooperate with this request. S) Petitioner desires a custody schedule whereby she exercises primary physical custody and Respondent's time is limited, as recommended by the custody evaluation, until Respondent modifies his behavior substantially. 9. Petitioner has no information of a custody proceeding concerning the child pending in any Court of this Commonwealth. 10. Each parent whose parental rights to the child have not been terminated and the person who has physical custody of the child has been named as a party to this action. All other persons named below, who are meant to have or claim to have a right to custody or visitation of the child, will be given notice of the proceedings of this action and the right to intervene: None. 11. Petitioner does not know of any person not a party to the proceedings who claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to the child. WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests your Honorable Court to enter an Order granting her shared legal and primary physical custody of the child.

APPOINTMENT AND TERM: Thomas Gould, Esquire is appointed as the Parties' Parenting Coordinator for a term of 12 months, which may be extended upon the Parenting Coordinators written recommendation to the court, or until the resignation of the Parenting Coordinator or termination of the appointment by the Court, whichever first occurs. The Parenting Coordinator's Terms of Engagement are attached hereto and are incorporated into this Agreement. The Court shall have authority to sanction a party for non-compliance with the Parenting Coordinator's Terms of Engagement. Legal counsel for both parties shall provide copies of all Orders, Pleadings and Custody Evaluations in this case to the Parenting Coordinator within ten (10) days of the date hereof. 2. ROLES OF PARENTING COORDINATOR: A. Parenting Coordination involves two components: (1) The Parenting Coordinator shall attempt to resolve issues arising out of the Custody Orders through facilitation, mediation, consultation, coaching and education, all of which are non-decision-making functions; (2) If it is apparent to the Parenting Coordinator that continued similar efforts are unlikely to resolve the issue(s), the Parenting Coordinator shall have the authority to resolve the dispute by providing a Decision for the parties on the issue(s). B. The Parenting Coordinator will not function as the psychotherapist, counselor, attorney or advocate for the parties, or the parties' child, or family. However, the Parenting Coordinator is permitted and encouraged to facilitate communication and agreement between the parties whenever possible, and shall always act in a manner conducive to the best interest of the child. 3. PARENTING COORDINATOR'S AUTHORITY: The Parenting Coordinator, in order to implement the custodial arrangement set forth in the Custody Orders and resolve related parenting issues about which they do not agree, is authorized to make decisions about issues that may include, but are not limited to, the following: A. Dates, times, places and conditions for transitions between households; B. Temporary variation from the schedule for a special event or particular circumstance; C. Minor adjustments to the physical custody schedule as set forth in the current Custody Orders; D. School issues, apart from school selection; E. Child's participation in recreation, enrichment, and extracurricular activities, programs and travel; F. Child care arrangements; G. Clothing, equipment, toys and personal possession of the child; H. Behavioral management of the child; 1. Information exchange (school, health, social, etc.) and communication with or about the child; J. Coordination of existing or court-ordered services for either of the parties or child (e.g. Psychological testing, alcohol or drug monitoring/testing, psychotherapy, anger management, parenting class, etc.); K. Other related custody issues that the parties mutually agree, in writing, to submit to their Parenting Coordinator. L. The appropriate role for step-parents in the life of the child. M. The release of information or documents involving the custody evaluations and parenting issues to third parties other than the court, counselors, the child's school and the like. 4. EXCLUSIONS FROM PARENTING COORDINATOR'S AUTHORITY: A. The following specific issues are excluded from the Parenting Coordinator's function and decision-making authority, except as provided in subparagraph (B) below: (1) A change in legal custody decision-making authority set forth in the Custody Orders; (2) A change in the primary physical custody (residential parenting time) set forth in the Custody Orders. (3) A change in the Court-ordered custody schedule that substantially reduces or expands the child's time with one or both parties; (4) A change in the geographic residence of the child (relocation) that would render implementation of the current Custody Orders impossible or impracticable; (5) Determination of financial issues, other than allocation of the Parenting Coordinator's fees; B. The Parties may mutually agree in writing to submit any of the excluded issues set forth above to the Parenting Coordinator for facilitation and recommendation which recommendation shall only become binding upon written agreement of the parties. 5. NON-CONFIDENTIALITY OF COMMUNICATIONS: No communications of the parties and/or their lawyers with the Parenting Coordinator are confidential.

Any documents, tape recordings or other material which one party gives to the Parenting Coordinator must also be made available to the other party or his/her legal counsel for inspection and copying.

In the event a party is given advance written notice of a session but does not attend, the Parenting Coordinator may make a Decision despite the party's absence. B. Decisions: (1) The Parenting Coordinator's Decisions may be communicated to the parties orally, but must be confirmed in writing as soon as practicable and filed in the Prothonotary's Office at the parties' above-captioned custody docket; (2) The Parenting Coordinator's Decisions shall be binding upon the parties unless and until revised by Court Order. 9.

After consultation with my client and counsel, I am writing to let you know that I will need to ask Sierra Killian no further question:, in light of Dr. Shienvold's report of June 2, 2009, in which Dr. Shienvold evaluates allegations similar to those provided by Sierra at the custody hearing, particularly at page 16. We look forward to the receipt of a decision in this matter. Thank you for your patience. Very truly yours, SAIDIS, FLOWED &,4NDSAY Carol J. Lindso Esquire \ CJL1pm cc: Linda Killian Diane G.
