averments are denied generally pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1029(d) and (e). Strict proof
thereof is demanded at the time of trial. By way of further answer, it is specifically denied
that Ruth Barrick acted in a negligent, careless, and/or reckless manner. To the contrary,
Ms. Barrick acted in a reasonable and prudent manner at all times.
26. Paragraph 26 states a legal conclusion to which no response is required. To
the extent, however, that a response is deemed necessary, said averments are denied
generally pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1029(d) and (e). Strict proof thereof is demanded at the
time of trial.
27. Paragraph 27 states a legal conclusion to which no response is required. To
the extent, however, that a response is deemed necessary, said averments are denied
generally pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1029(d) and (e). Strict proof thereof is demanded at the
time of trial.
28. Paragraph 28 states a legal conclusion to which no response is required. To
the extent, however, that a response is deemed necessary, said averments are denied
generally pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1029(d) and (e). Strict proof thereof is demanded at the
time of trial.
29. Paragraph 29 states a legal conclusion to which no response is required. To
the extent, however, that a response is deemed necessary, said averments are denied
generally pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1029(d) and (e). Strict proof thereof is demanded at the
time of trial.
30. Paragraph 30 states a legal conclusion to which no response is required. To
the extent, however, that a response is deemed necessary, said averments are denied
generally pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1029(d) and (e). Strict proof thereof is demanded at the
time of trial.
31. Paragraph 31 states a legal conclusion to which no response is required. To
the extent, however, that a response is deemed necessary, said averments are denied
generally pursuant to Pa.R.C.P. 1029(d) and (e). Strict proof thereof is demanded at the
time of trial.
32. After reasonable investigation, the Defendants have insufficient information
as to the truth or falsity of said averments, therefore said averments are denied and strict
proof thereof is demanded at the time of trial.
WHEREFORE, Defendants, Ronald Barrick and Ruth Barrick, respectfully request
this Honorable Court enter judgment in their favor and against the Plaintiff with costs and
prejudice imposed.
NEW MATTER
33. The motor vehicle accident in controversy is subject to the Pennsylvania
Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility law and these Defendants assert, as affirmative
defenses, all rights, privileges and/or immunities accruing pursuant to said statute.
34. Some and/or all of Plaintiffs claims for damages are items of economic
detriment which are or could be compensable pursuant to either the Pennsylvania Motor
Vehicle Financial Responsibility law and/or other collateral sources and same may not be
duplicated in the present lawsuit.
35. To the extent that the Plaintiff has selected the limited tort option or is
deemed to have selected the limited tort option then these Defendants set forth the
relevant provisions of the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law as a
bar to the Plaintiffs ability to recover non-economic damages.
36. These Defendants plead any and all applicable statutes of limitation under
Pennsylvania law as a complete or partial bar to any recovery by Plaintiff in this action.
WHEREFORE, Defendants, Ronald Barrick and Ruth Barrick, respectfully request
this Honorable Court enter judgment in their favor and against the Plaintiff with costs and
prejudice imposed.
