PRE-TRIAL STATEMENT PURSUANT TO RULE 1920.33
I. HISTORY
Shirley and Donald Morningstar were married on June 29, 1958. They had two
children, both of which are now grown. Shirley Morningstar was a school teacher and
Donald Morningstar was a professor at Shippensburg. Both are now retired. Shirley
Morningstar has ongoing health concerns, due to high cholesterol and cancer.
A complaint in divorce was filed on June 13, 2001 raising grounds for divorce of
irretrievable breakdown of the marriage and the alternative grounds for divorce of
indignities. On July 11, 2001, Shirley Morningstar was physcially forced to leave the
marital home. She moved to an apartment, and she does not wish to have her
addressed disclosed to the Defendant. Defendant, Donald Morningstar remained in the
marital home. There is currently no mortgage on the marital home. On September 20,

alimony, alimony pendente lite, and counsel fees and expenses. Counsel have

VI. EMPLOYMENT AND INCOME.
Both husband and wife are retired. In November 2001, a stipulation was
entered regarding Alimony Pendente Lite. Wife received $761.00 a month in social
security benefits and $1372.03 a month from her retirement. Her total income was
$2133.03. Husband received $1072.00 per month social security and $2695.67 from
his retirement. A stipulation for Alimony Pendente Lite was entered under which
Husband pays Wife $653.00 a month. Therefore, Shirley and Donald Morningstar's
incomes are $2786.03 and $3114.67 respectively.
The parties also have income from their investments. It was represented to
Plaintiff that these funds are being reinvested in their accounts.
VII. WITNESSES.
1. Frank Potteiger, Auctioneer, Appraiser.
2. Audrey Havice, Sister of Shirley Morningstar.
3. Shirley Morningstar.
Plaintiff reserves the right to supplement this list before hearing.
VIII. EVIDENCE AND EXHIBITS.

1. The parties' tax returns.
2. Statements of all accounts.
3. Order regarding Alimony Pendente Lite (Please see Exhibit A).
4. List of personal items from Auctioneer and appraisal.
5. Plaintiffs income and expense statement. (Please see Exhibit 8).
6. Plaintiffs inventory. (Please see Exhibit C).
Plaintiff reserves the right to supplement this list before hearing.
IX. PROPOSED RESOLUTION.
Plaintiff, Shirley Morningstar, has a lower income capacity than Donald
Morningstar due to the type of job that she worked and the fact that she stayed home
with her children. She is currently living in an apartment and left behind the bulk of the
couple's personal possessions after she was physically forced to move from the marital
home. She also has ongoing health concerns which include high cholesterol and
cancer. Therefore, she is requesting that the alimony granted continue indefinitely.
She is requesting 60% of the marital assets. As part of the settlement, she requests
reimbursement for the rental value of the marital home, since Defendant has been living
in the marital home rent free and she has been forced to make monthly rental
payments to maintain her apartment.

RE: Shirley A. Morningstar vs. Donald E. Morningstar
No. 01 - 3642 Civil
In Divorce
Dear Ms. Adams and Mr. Hildabrand:
Attorney Adams indicated that discovery is complete. Mr.
Hildabrand indicated that he would expect discovery to be complete
within sixty days of March 20,2002. Therefore, I am going to proceed
with a directive for pre-trial statements with the understanding that we
will not be involved with any discovery matters at the time of the
conference.
A complaint in divorce was filed on June 13,2001, raising grounds
for divorce of irretrievable breakdown of the marriage and the alternative
grounds for divorce of indignities. I am going to assume that the parties
will sign affidavits of consent and waivers of notice of intention to request
entry of divorce decree, or in the alternative have been separated for a
period in excess of two years, so that the divorce can proceed under the
no-fault provisions of the divorce code. If that assumption is not correct,
please advise and I will immediately schedule a hearing on the
alternative grounds of indignities.
<P
Ms. Adams and Mr. Hildabrand, Attorneys at Law
25 March 2002
Page 2
On September 20, 2001, the Plaintiff filed a petition raising the
economic claims of equitable distribution, alimony, alimony pendente
lite, and counsel fees and expenses.
In accordance with P.R.C.P. 1920.33(b) I am directing each counsel
to file a pretrial statement on or before Friday, June 7,2002. I have
picked the date in June in order to give counsel sufficient opportunity to
complete the discovery which Mr. Hildabrand says needs to be
accomplished and to prepare pretrial statements with the current
information regarding the issues involved. Upon receipt of the pretrial
statements, I will immediately schedule a pre-hearing conference with
counsel to discuss the issues, and if necessary, schedule a hearing.
Very truly yours,
E. Robert Elicker, II
Divorce Master
NOTE:
Sanctions for failure to file the pretrial statements are set
forth in subdivision (c) and (d) of Rule 1920.33.
THE ORIGINAL PRETRIAL STATEMENT SHOULD BE FILED
IN THE MASTER'S OFFICE AND A COPY SENT DIRECTLY
TO OPPOSING COUNSEL.
FAILURE TO FILE PRETRIAL STATEMENTS AS DIRECTED
BY THE MASTER MAY RESULT IN THE MASTER'S
APPOINTMENT BEING VACATED.

Shirley,
July 5, 2001
Understanding that your intension is to move out of our home next
week I make the following request:
1. That you return, before you leave, the income tax forms for year
2000 that you removed from the den filing cabinet without my
knowledge. By now your lawyer has had enough time to make
copies of anything of importance and should return the originals
immediatly.
2. You ask that I not be home when you move for fear that I would
harm the movers. I have locked the gun cabinet to make it .
inaccesable to anyone and I will leave the house, however I reserve
the right to remain off the driveway to observe what is removed
from the home.
3. When you leave I expect you to leave behind (a) keys to the
front, back, and cellar doors and the garage door (b) the remote
transmitter to the overhead garage door.
4. I have allowed you to make this move with as little interferance
as possible even though some of your actions have been quite
troubling. It is possible that I will need to contact you as I prepare
to sell the house, therefor will you please let me an address where I
can get in contact with you.

RE: Shirley Morningstar
S.S.# 190-28-0481
Dear Ms~ Adams:
I am responding to a request made to the Public School Employee's Retirement System
(PSERS) regarding a divorce matter for the above member. -
Ms. Morningstar retired from the PSERS effective June 15, 1993. At the time of her
retirement she selected the Maximum Option and elected to withdraw her contributions
and interest. A breakdown follows:
Contributions
Contributions that cannot be withdrawn
Interest
Years of Service
$25,705.57
1,485.03 .
10,960.13
33.43*
*Includes a service credit of 3.04 years for Act 186 (retirement incentive).
Since she elected to withdraw the available contributions and interest, the value of her
account is $1,485.03.
Ms. Morningstar is currently receiving a monthly benefit of $2, 165.~1 (gross).
An Alternate Payee could only receive a portion of her monthly benefit. Ms. Morningstar
began contributing to PSERS in October 1966 therefore her entire service credit would
be considered marital property.
If Ms. Morningstar's benefit is considered marital property and subject to equitable
distribution, PSERS will require an Approved Domestic Relations Order (ADRO) that
has been reviewed and approved by PSERS. However, if the benefit will not be subject
to equitable distribution, PSERS will require a copy of the Property Settlement
Agreement stating the ex-spouse is waiving any and all claims to her benefit with
PSERS, or a 'Waiver of Pension Benefits" form (enclosed) signed by her ex-spouse.

Dear Judge Bayley:
On March 12, 2004 you issued a Rule to Show Cause upon the filing of
Defendant's Petition to Enforce Marriage Settlement Agreement. Thereafter, you
signed an Order permitting Attorney Adams to withdraw as counsel for Mrs.
Morningstar. I have been advised by my client that Mrs. Morningstar has now
reimbursed Mr. Morningstar for the full amount sought in the petition. Mr.
Morningstar has advised me that he wishes to withdraw the petition at this time and
not pursue his claim for counsel fees or other potential sanctions. Accordingly, please
consider Defendant's Petition withdrawn at this time. Thank you.
Very truly yours,

: CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA
v.
: NO. 01-3642 CIVIL TERM
DONALD E. MORNINGSTAR,
Defendant
ACTION IN DIVORCE
DEFENDANT'S PETITION TO ENFORCE MARRIAGE SETTLEMENT
AGREEMENT PURSUANT TO 23 Pa.C.S. ~3105
1. Petitioner is Donald E. Morningstar, the Defendant in the above
captioned divorce action.
2. Respondent is Shirley A. Morningstar, the Plaintiff in the above
captioned divorce action.
3. Following a pre-hearing conference before Divorce Master Robert
Elicker, Esquire, on August 23, 2002, the parties reached an agreement of the
economic issues in conjunction with their divorce.
4. By Marriage Settlement Agreement dated September 27, 2002, a
copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by
reference, the parties in paragraph 7 agreed to divide husband's retirement
benefit (in pay status) from the Pennsylvania State Employees Retirement System
and wife's retirement benefit (in pay status) from the Public School Employees
2
Retirement Systems each in half. This document was filed with the Court on
October 8, 2002.
5. The agreement specifically provided: "The parties shall arrange
and pay for the preparation of Qualified Domestic Relations Orders with respect
to both retirement plans with 50% of husband's retirement plan to be paid to
wife and 50% of wife's retirement plan to be paid to husband. The parties shall
share equally the expense of the preparation of and approval of the Qualified
Domestic Relations Orders."
6. On October 22, 2002 the parties were divorced. Attached hereto,
marked as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference is a copy of the Decree
in Divorce which provides: "It is further Ordered and Decreed that the terms
and conditions of the Marriage Settlement Agreement filed October 8, 2002 are
incorporated herein by reference."
7. In order to implement the provisions of paragraph 7 of the
Marriage Settlement Agreement the parties cooperated in the preparation of two
Qualified Domestic Relations Orders, the Orders were approved, and submitted
to the Pennsylvania State Employees Retirement System (SERS) and the Public
School Employees Retirement System (PSERS) for simultaneous implementation.
3
8. Simultaneous implementation of the QDRO's was specifically
discussed between counsel for both parties and a specific agreement was reached
between counsel that every effort would be made to have them approved and
implemented by the two retirement systems at the same time but that if that did
not occur due to administrative processing the party receiving more than half of
the benefit under their own plan after that party started to receive half of the
benefit under the other parties plan would reimburse the other party one half of
their own benefit to properly effectuate the terms of the agreement.
9. On June 13, 2003, after both QDRO's had been approved by the
Court, Attorney Adams on behalf of Respondent/Plaintiff Shirley A.
Morningstar submitted Domestic Relations Orders simultaneously to the State
Employee Retirement System and the Public School Employees Retirement
System. Attached hereto, marked as Exhibit C and incorporated herein by
reference are copies of Attorney Adams letters.
10. In the aforesaid letters from Attorney Adams she specifically states:
"I am forwarding a virtually identically QDRO to (PSERS or SERS) at the same
time. We would like to have both of these QDRO's go through at the same
time. "
4
11. Subsequent to initial submission SERS requested revisions to the
QDRO with respect to Mr. Morningstar.
12. The parties cooperated in amending the Domestic Relations Order,
which Order was signed by Judge Bayley on July 7, 2003 and submitted to SERS
by Attorney Adams letter of July 9, 2003.
13. The QDRO submitted to Mr. Morningstar's retirement system,
SERS, was approved on or about July 23, 2003 and implemented in August of
2003. However, PSERS did not approve the QDRO regarding Mrs. Morningstar's
retirement until on or about December 8,2003 after Attorney Adams had
submitted a copy of the requested Divorce Decree.
14. Accordingly, the QDRO on Mrs. Morningstar's pension benefit was
not implemented until January of 2004.
15. This delay in implementation resulted in an overpayment to Mrs.
Morningstar in the amount of $5,920.00 (one half of Mrs. Morningstar's monthly
pension of $2,360.08 or $1,180.04 times five months (August, September, October,
November and December)) plus interest.
16. Counsel for Petitioner/Defendant has requested in writing several
times to counsel for Respondent/Plaintiff Mrs. Morningstar that these payments

Re: Morningstar v. Morningstar
Dear Jane:
This will confirm our telephone conversation of November 25,2003 and my
subsequent letters to you regarding the fact that Mr. Morningstar's pension benefit was
cut in half in August pursuant to the QDRO but the QDRO on Mrs. Morningstar's
pension benefit was not implemented until January of 2004. Accordingly, in line with
our agreement when the QDRO's were submitted that they would be implemented
simultaneously and that any overpayment in the implementation would be reimbursed
by the appropriate party, demand is made upon Mrs. Morningsta,r that she immediately
reimburse Mr, Morningstar in the amount of $5,920.00 (1/2 of Mrs. Morningstar's
monthly pension of $2,360.08 or $1,180.04 x 5 months (August, September, October,
November and December)). I had requested that Mrs. Morningstar immediately make
these reimbursement payments when you and I discussed this matter back in
November. Payment from her to Mr. Morningstar should be made immediately. If
payment is not forthcoming within ten (10) days it is our intention to file suit and seek
appropriate interest and attorney's fees. Hopefully, this can be avoided and we can
finally put this file to rest.
I received a letter from PSERS on December 30, 2003 claiming that they did not
have a copy of the Divorce Decree back when materials were originally submitted to '
Deb Hancock. I have your letter of June 13,2003 to PSERS submitting the approved
Domestic Relations Order in which you indicate "Please process this QDRO as soon as
possible as it has been quite some time since the entry of the Divorce Decree."
Coordination of the implementation of the two orders was requested and I note that
Jane Adams, Esquire
1/23/04
Page 2
prior to that you had submitted a copy of the Divorce Decree. Apparently PSERS
dropped the ball because Hancock began a leave of absence on June 10, 2003. The letter
from Mr. Milligan explains no follow up was made to obtain the Divorce Decree due to
this leave of absence.
Obviously, I think it is to the mutual interest of both parties to finally put this
matter to rest. Please contact me immediately with respect to the reimbursement of
these funds. Thank you.
