AND NOW, comes Petitioner, Duane Lebo, by and through his attorneys, Mc:mcke, W.agner,
Hemhey & Tully, and makes the following averments in support of this License Recall:
1. Petitioner, Duane Lebo, is an adult individual and a Pennsylvania lic,arsed drivElr
with a residence address of 661 West Old York Road, Carlisle, CUmbel\ancl County,
Pennsylvania 17013.

2,. Petitioner received a notice of license suspension by way of letter dc:lte,d May :26,
2001 from the Department of Transportation indicating that his Pennsylvania dri'Jing
privileges are to be recalled on June 30, 2001. See Exhibit "A" attached 11Brl3to ancl
incorporated herein by reference.
4. The specific issue complained of by the Department of Transportation WClS tl1,lt
Petitioner "has seizure disorder and cardiovascular disease conditions tll.E1t co uld
affect your ability to drive."
5.. The Department's recall action is illegal, improper, and invalid for som(:, or ail of the
following reasons:
a. Petitioner's seizure condition does not prevent him from safely operatin!~ a
motor vehicle due to a consistent prolonged aura which precedes his
seizures.
b. Petitioner's episode of May 22, 2001 which triggered the Department's
notice was preceded by sufficient warning or aura, there!fore, no motor
vehicle was involved;
c. According to Petitioner's neurologist, who is aware of the May 2, 200'1
incident, he is safe to operate a motor vehicle notwithstanding any prEl-
existing medical condition;
d. Petitioner's neurologist has testified in his deposition that Petitioner has a
sufficient prolonged aura accompanied by sufficient warning whictlllC1S bE:!en
established over the past five (5) years. (See 67 Pa.Code ~B3.4(c:)(2)).
e. Penn DOT's six month seizure-free policy is neither codifiE!d by statutE! or
regulation;
f. Medical testimony will establish that Petitioner has established a sufficilsnt
history of warning prior to his seizure episodes to fulfil thiS waivElr
requirements of the Department's regulations pertaining to epih:lpsy';
g. Dr. Dell, Petitioner's other primary care physician, has examin':ld PetitionElr
and notified PennDOT in writing that Petitioner's cardiac condition does 110t
render him unsafe to operate a motor vehicle; and
h. The Department's action is in violation of Petitioner's righ':s under the
Americans with Disabilities Act, the Federal Rehabilitation Act of 19?3, and
the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act because Petitioner is an individual
affected with a disability and the Department of Transportation, as a 1 entity
receiving government funding, is therefore subject to the provisions of the
above three mentioned Acts.
\NH EREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests that this Court issue a stay on the
Department of Transportation's proposed action recalling his license effective Junl3 ~IO, 2001 and
schl~dule a hearing to determine the validity of the suspension proposed by the Department in
Exh bit "A".
