PETITIONER'S MOTION TO DISMISS
OBJECTIONS TO SUBPOENAS
AND NOW comes the Petitioner, J. Edward Clouse (herein "Edward" or"Petitioner"),
by and through his attorney, Neil Warner Yahn, Esquire, of JSDC LAW OFFICES, who upon
valid information and belief hereby submits the below Motion to Dismiss the Objections to
Subpoenas as follows:
Parties and Background
1. On or about January 27, 2015, Petitioner submitted a Fetition to Adjudicate
Incapacitated and Appoint Plenary Guardian of the Person and Estate for the alleged
incapacitated person, namely Calene M. Clouse (herein"Calene").1
2. Following submission of the Petition, the initial Plenary Guardianship Hearing
was scheduled for March 3, 2015.
3. Calene is being represented by Robert C. Saidis, Esquire(herein"Attorney
Saidis") of Saidis, Sullivan &Rogers located at 26�West High Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania
17013.
1 Petitioner hereby incorporates all facts,averments,references and exhibits from ltis Petition to Adjudicate
Incapacitated and Appoint Plenary Guardian of the Person and Estate(herein the"Petition")submitted before this
Honorable Court on or about January 27,2015 as if set forth in full herein.
, �
�
4. Attorney Saidis entered his appearance on behalf of Calene on or about February
24, 2015.
5. Following said entry, undersigned counsel and Attorney Saidis agreed to stay the
Plenary Guardianship Hearing in attempt to resolve the matter and pr�vide the necessary
protections for Calene without having to proceed with a formal adjudication of incapacity.
6. However, since the Hearing has been stayed, Calene's Uehavior has grown erratic
and hostile including allegations of transferring assets to others in di:i•ect contravention to certain
Family Partnership interest of which she is an interest owner thereof.
7. Despite Calene's outbursts, Attorney Saidis continues to maintain his position that
Calene is not an incapacitated person (see attached correspondence and related notation from
Jagadeesh K. Moola, MD dated April 9, 2015 marked collectively as Lxhibit"A")
8. Petitioner desires to resolve this matter amicably liowever based on the foregoing,
Petitioner believes and therefore avers that this matter may not be resolved absent adjudication
from this Honorable Court regarding Calene's capacity.
9. As a result, on or about April 28, 2015, Petitioner submitted a Motion for Status
Conference before this Honorable Court to advance discussions on the need for rescheduling the
Plenary Guardianship Hearing as well as ancillary discovery and capacity evaluation matters.2
10. This Honorable Court has scheduled the afarementioned Status Conference for
May 27, 2015.
2 Petitioner hereby incorporates all facts,averments,references and exhibits from liis Motion for Status Conference
submitted before this Honorable Court on or about Apri128,2015 as if set fc�rth in full herein.
,,i��r,cai ri,ur n i
Subpoena Requests
11. On or about April 27, 2015, Petitioner issued two (2) Notices of Intent seeking to
serve subpoenas upon the following hospitals: (1) Holy Spirit Hospital—Behavioral Health
Services; and (2) Haven Behavioral Hospital (true and correct co��ies of the Notices of Intent are
attached hereto and marked collectively as Exhibit`B").
12. As outlined in each subpoena, Petitioner seeks copies of any and all documents
related to Calene M. Clouse, including but not limited to, medical re�ords,medical charts,
prescriptions, prognoses, diagnoses,physician referrals, specialist reports, nurses notes and
capacity evaluations, for the time period from January of 2013 though the present date (herein the
"Subpoenas" collectively or otherwise identified individually).
13. On or about May 11, 2015, Calene objected to the foregoing subpoenas premised
upon 42 Pa.C.S.A. § 5944 (regarding the Holy Spirit Subpoena) and 50 P.S. § 7111 (regarding
the Haven Behavioral Hospital Subpoena) (herein the "Objections" to which true and correct
copies thereof are attached hereto and marked collectively as Ehhibit "C").
14. Petitioner hereby submits the within Motion to Dismiss respectfully requesting
that this Honorable Court enter an Order denying and dismissing Calene's Objections to the
Subpoenas with prejudice and allowing the afarementioned Subpoenas to be issued consistent
with the Notices of Intent as presented herein.
� ,,�,�,��, ,�.,.� ,
42 Pa.C.S.A. � 5944
15. 42 Pa.C.S.A. § 5944 provides "[n]o psychiatrist or•person who has been licensed
under the act of March 23, 1972 (P.L.136,No.52), to practice psychology shall be, without the
written consent of his client, examined in any civil or criminal matter as to any information
acquired in the course of his professional services in behalf of such client. The confidential
relations and communications between a psychologist or psychiatrist �nd his client shall be on
the same basis as those provided or prescribed by law between an attc�rney and client."
16. Calene's Objection to the Holy Spirit Subpoena premised upon 42 Pa.C.S.A. §
5944 is misguided as said statute concerns confidential commu�zications to psychiatrists or
licensed psychologists (emphasis added).
17. The Holy Spirit Subpoena herein simply requests Calene's medical records and
related data, including records from Dr. Jagadeesh K. Moola, M.D., which is wholly appropriate
for discovery.
18. The psychiatrist-patient privilege is designed to p�-otect.disclosures made by the
client and does not protect the opinions, observations, diagnosis, and treatment alternatives of the
professionals. See Commonwealth v. Carter, 2003 PA Super 131, 821 A.2d 601, 2003 Pa. Super.
LEXIS 530 (Pa. Super. Ct. 2003).
19. Moreover, assuming this matter proceeds to a fonnal Guardianship hearing,
Calene's previous medical history will naturally be relevant (and necessary) for adjudication by
this Honorable Court and for proper assessment.3
3 In addition,Petitioner believes that the opinion expressed by Dr.Moola in liis correspondence dated Apri19,2015
attached Exhibit"A"herein is not consistent with Calene's prior medical history. Moreover,Dr. Moola is not a
geriatric psychiatrist and therefore not qualified to issue opinions on issues of'incapacity.Petitioner avers a review of
the medical records by an independent geriatric physician is appropriate.
�„„ri iiirrr,ur�r �
20. As a result, Petitioner respectfully requests that tYiis Honorable Court enter an
Order denying and dismissing Calene's Objections to the Subpoenas with prejudice and
authorizing the Holy Spirit Subpoena to be issued.
50 P.S. & 7111
21. 50 P.S. § 7111(a) provides "[a]11 documents concerning persons in treatment shall
be kept confidential and, without the person's written consent, may not be released or their
contents disclosed to anyone except: (1) those engaged in providing treatment for the person; (2)
the county administrator, pursuant to section 110; (3) a court in the course of legal proceedings
authorized by this act; and (4)pursuant to Federal rules, statutes and regulations governing
disclosure of patient information where treatment is undertaken in a Federal agency."
22. Petitioner hereby requests authorization for release of Calene's records from
Haven Behavioral Hospital pursuant to 50 P.S. § 7111(a)(3).
23. By way of background, Calene was involuntarily committed at Haven Behavioral
Hospital in or about August of 2014 as a result of an incident at a theatre in which Calene made
dangerous threats towards other individuals.
24. Petitioner avers the records from Calene's stay at Ha��en Behavioral Hospital are
relevant and necessary to an ultimate determination of Calene's capacity(or lack thereo�.
25. As a result, Petitioner respectfully requests that this Honorable Court enter an
Order denying and dismissing Calene's Objections to the Subpoenas with prejudice and
authorizing the Haven Behavioral Hospital Subpoena to be issucd.
26. Petitioner has provided a true and correct copy of the Mation contained herein, as
well as a copy of the Proposed Order,to Attorney Saidis who has indicated his non-concurrence in
Petitioner's Motion to Dismiss the Objections to Subpoenas.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that this Honc�rable Court enter an Order
denying and dismissing Calene's Objections to Subpoenas with prejudice and allowing the ,
aforementioned subpoenas to be issued consistent with the Notices of Intent as presented herein.
Respectfully submitted,
