COMPLAINT IN EQUITY AND REQUEST
FOR PRELIMINARY/FINAL INJUNCTION
AND NOW, comes the Plaintiffs, William R. Raber and Denice M. Raber, husband and wife, by and
through their attorneys, Johnson, Duffie, Stewart & Weidner, and file this Complaint and in support thereof
avers as follows:
1, Plaintiffs, William R. Raber and Denice M, Raber, husband and wife, are adult individuals
residing at 101 Silver Springs Road, Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17050. Plaintiffs
are hereinafter referred to individually and collectively as "Raber".
2, Defendant, Edward M. Jones, is an adult individual residing at 7048 Wertzville Road,
Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17050. Defendant is hereinafter referred to as "Jones".
3, At all times mentioned herein, Jones was and still is the record and legal owner of the
premises municipally known and numbered as 101 Silver Springs Road, Mechanicsburg, Cumberland
County, Pennsylvania 17050 (hereinafter the "Premises"),
:1
4, The Premises includes a one (1) story detached dwelling and the real estate upon which the
same is located.
5, Raber and Jones entered into a Lease Agreement With Option to Purchase Real Estate
dated Ocober 1, 2002, wherein Jones agreed to lease the premises to Raber for the sum of Eight Hundred
Filly ($850,00) Dollars per month as well as afford Raber the option to purchase the real estate at anytime
during the term of the lease or extensions thereof. The initial lease term was October 1, 2002, through
September 31, 2004, with indefinite additional automatic extensions of twelve (12) months. A true and
correct copy of said Lease Agreement With Option to Purchase Real Estate is attached hereto and
incorporated herein as Exhibit "A".
6. Raber has notified Jones at various times during the initial term of the lease and during the
twelve (12) month extension that they intend to exercise the option to purchase the Premises,
7. Raber made application to two lenders to secure financing on the purchase of the Premises.
8, Ultimately, Raber has decided to utilize Home Team Mortgage as a broker and New Century
Mortgage Corp. as a lender, and settlement was scheduled on March 23, 2005. A true and correct copy of
the HUD-1 Settlement Statement is attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit "B",
9. Pursuant to the terms of the Lease Agreement With Option to Purchase Real Estate, Raber is
responsible for rent payment through the date of closing. At closing, the parties agreed to forgo the
$5.000,00 down payment as provided in the Lease Agreement With Option to Purchase Real Estate in
exchange for back rent (December 04 through March 05). To date, Raber owes rent from December 04
which has not been paid due to Jones' default. Raber acknowledges this obligation and will resume rent
payments beginning immediately until this action is resolved.
10. Jones appeared at the settlement but refused to execute the HUD-1 or the closing documents
in breach of the terms of the Lease Agreement With Option to Purchase Real Estate attached hereto as
Exhibit "A".

Plaintiffs
IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF
CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA
v.
DOCKET NO. 05-2521
EDWARD M. JONES
7048 Wertzville Road
Mechanicsburg, P A 17050,
Defendant
CIVIL ACTION - EQUITY
ANSWER WITH NEW MATTER AND COUNTERCLAIM
1. Admitted.
2. Admitted.
3. Admitted.
4, Admitted.
5. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted only that Raber and Jones had
an agreement whereby Jones agreed to lease the subject property to Raber for the sum of Eight
Hundred Fifty Dollars ($850.00) per month, commencing September 1,2002. This agreement
was memorialized by the writing attached hereto as Exhibit" I". It is specifically denied that
Exhibit "A" to the Plaintiffs Complaint represents the agreement of the parties. While it is
admitted that Jones agreed to sell the subject property to Raber, Exhibit "A" does not reflect the
true terms of the agreement. Rather, Exhibit "A" is a document that Raber fraudulently induced
Jones into signing in order to satisfY requirements of Raber's mortgage lender. By way of
further answer, to the extent that said Exhibit "A" is a binding and enforceable agreement, Raber
breached the same by failing to make the required payments thereunder.
6. Denied as stated. It is admitted that Raber and Jones discussed at various times
the sale of the subject property. It is denied that Raber held an "option" to purchase said real
estate as per the terms of Exhibit "A" of the Plaintiff's Complaint. On the contrary, Exhibit "A"
of the Plaintiff's Complaint is not a writing which represents and embodies the agreement and
understanding of the parties.
7. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that Raber made at least one
application to a lender to secure financing to purchase the property based upon the oral
agreement of the parties to convey the subject property. After reasonable investigation, Jones is
unaware of the number of applications to lenders in which Raber purportedly made to secure
financing; therefore, the same is denied,
8. Admitted in part. By way of further answer, settlement was scheduled based
upon the agreement of the parties whereby Raber would pay One Hundred Ten Thousand Dollars
($110,000.00) for the subject property, with a credit of Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000.00) for
previous paid rent and other considerations.
9. Denied as stated. Exhibit "A" to the Plaintiff's Complaint does not embody the
agreement of the parties. Accordingly, any reference to the same is hereby denied. It is admitted
that Raber owes rent from December 2004 to March 2005. By way of further answer, Raber
now owes rent for April 2005 to the date of filing of this Complaint with the exception of one
month credit for a payment made in June 2005.
10. Denied as stated. It is admitted that Jones appeared at the settlement but refused
to execute the HUD-1 or the closing documents. It is denied that Jones was in breach of
contract. On the contrary, the terms of the Lease Agreement with Option to Purchase Real Estate
attached to the Plaintiff's Complaint as Exhibit "A" do not embody the true and correct
2
agreement of the parties, Jones rightfully refused to execute the HUD-l or other closing
documents as the HUD-l did not represent the net of One Hundred Five Thousand Dollars
($105,000.00) that Jones was to receive for the subject property as per the agreement of the
parties. By way of further answer, to the extent Exhibit "A" to the Plaintiffs Complaint is a
binding agreement, Raber is in breach of the same.
11. Denied. The Lease Agreement With Option to Purchase Real Estate attached as
Exhibit "A" of the Plaintiffs Complaint does not represent the true and correct agreement of the
parties. Accordingly, any reference to the same is hereby denied. By way of further answer,
Raber has failed to make the installment payments under Exhibit "A" ofthe Plaintiff s
Complaint.
12. Denied. The averment in paragraph 12 is a conclusion oflaw to which no answer
is required. To the extent an answer is required, Jones is ready and willing to comply with the
terms and parties of the agreement which terms are not reflected in the Lease Agreement With
Option to Purchase Real Estate.
I 3. Denied. At the time of closing, the HUD-1 did not reflect the agreed purchase
price of the property in the amount ofa net of One Hundred Five Thousand Dollars
($105,000.00). Accordingly, Jones properly refused to execute any conveyance documents that
did not correctly reflect the agreement of the parties. Raber admitted the same to Jones, but did
not want the lender to know about the true agreement.
NEW MATTER
I4, Answering Defendant's responses to paragraphs 1-13 are incorporated herein as
set forth at length.
3
15. The Lease Agreement With Option to Purchase Real Estate attached to Plaintiff's
Complaint as Exhibit "A" does not reflect the parties' true agreement as to the terms to convey
the subject property.
I6. The Lease Agreement With Option to Purchase Real Estate Wa$ not executed in
October 2002, but rather, executed in early 2005 at the request of Raber in order to satisfy a
requirement of Raber's lender.
17. In early 2005, Jones and Raber reached an agreement in which Raber would pay
Jones a net of One Hundred Five Thousand Dollars ($105,000.00) to purchase the subject
property.
18. Raber has acknowIedged that the true agreement was for a net of One Hundred
Five Thousand Dollars ($105,000.00) in front of witnesses and on audio tape.
19. Raber asked Jones to sign Exhibit "A" to the Plaintiff's Complaint for purposes of
showing a purchase price on the property of Eighty Thousand Dollars ($80,000.00) in order to
secure financing.
20. Raber acknowledged that the Lease Agreement With Option to Purchase Real
Estate did not embody the true agreement of the parties, but Raber said that he would not be able
to obtain financing unless he "showed a purchase of price of $80,000.00."
2 I. The actions of Raber constitutes mortgage fraud.
22. Raber assured Jones at the time of executing the Lease Agreement With Option to
Purchase Real Estate and on other occasions that, at the time of settlement, Jones would receive
the full One Hundred Five Thousand Dollars ($I05,000.00) net purchase price.
23. With the exception of June 2005, Raber has not paid rent to Jones since
November 2004.
4
24. To the extent Exhibit "A" to the Plaintiffs Complaint is a binding and
enforceable agreement, Raber breached the same by failing to make required monthly
installment payments since November 2004.
