Plaintiffs believe and therefore aver that Respondent Henry Henson has misappropriated the Estate's money, assets, and property. 19. Plaintiffs believe and therefore aver that Respondent Henry Henson fraudulently and/or via the exertion of undue influence transferred title to Agatha Haut's property to himself. 20. Petitioner has filed a Complaint in Equity, requesting that this Honorable Court enjoin Respondent Henry Henson from spending or utilizing any of the funds or assets that he has already appropriated from the Haut Estate, and to enjoin Respondent Henry Henson from any taking any further action relating to the Estate and/or its assets. A copy of the Complaint is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein. 21. The Petitioners are entitled to the relief requested for the following reasons; a. The Petitioners are threatened with immediate and irreparable harm given Respondent Henry Henson's past pattern of conduct, and present intent to defraud Petitioners, thereby unjustly enriching himself b. In relation to the foregoing, immediate and irreparable injury will be sustained by Petitioners before a hearing can be held on. Petitioners' motion for a preliminary injunction, in that Respondent Henry Henson is currently attempting to withdraw all or a portion of the deceased's proceeds on deposit; in that Respondent Henry Henson is attempting to acquire the deceased's life insurance proceeds; and in that Petitioners have reason to believe that Respondent Henry Henson will attempt to liquidate all assets to which he fraudulently acquired title, to include the deceased's residential property. c.

Under the attendant circumstances, the provision of advance notice to Respondent Henry Henson is a practical impossibility, insofar as Plaintiffs believe that any such notice would serve to expedite his efforts to liquidate the Estate's property. f The requested relief will serve to preserve the status quo which existed before the acts complained of in the complaint by restoring the last peaceable, noncontested status which preceded the controversy. WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests, pursuant to Pa. R.C.P. 1531(a), that a preliminary injunction forthwith be granted by this Court, prior to notice and hearing, in order to preserve the status quo until such time as this Court finally determines the rights of each party by: a.

Haut, Jr., by and through their attorneys, ROMINGER, BAYLEY & WHARF, and petition this Honorable Court for a preliminary injunction pursuant to Pa. R.C.P. 1531, and in support thereof aver the following: 1. Agatha Haut died at the age of 75 years, on September 24, 2005, after suffering from dementia for a period of several years. 2. Agatha Haut's address at the time of her death was 537 North Bedford Street, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013. 3. Agatha Haut is survived by five children: Paul H. Haut, Jr., Linda Swaim, Henry Henson, Evelyn Gimbara, and Stephen B. Haut. 4. A Petition for Grant of Letters of Administration for the Estate of Agatha Haut was filed on October 3, 2005; the grant of said letters is pending the completion of an Oath of Subscribing Witness by Sally J. Winder, Esquire, the attorney who drafted and witnessed the signing of Mrs. Haut's Last Will and Testament. 5. Agatha Haut's Last Will and Testament appoints Paul H. Haut, Jr., her son, as the Executor of her Estate. 6. Petitioner Paul H. Haut, Jr., is an adult individual who resides at 57 Meade Drive, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013. 7. Respondent Henry Henson is an adult individual who resides at 1128 Mainsville Road, Shippensburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17257. 8. Respondent Globe Life & Accident Insurance Co (hereinafter "Globe") is a duly licensed insurance carrier with a place of business at Globe Life Center, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73184. 9. Respondent Globe has engaged in, and continues to engage in, a continuous and substantial course of business within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 10. Agatha Haut was insured under a life insurance policy with Globe at the time of her death. 11. Respondent Physicians Mutual & Life Insurance Company (hereinafter "Physicians") is a duly licensed insurance carrier with a place of business at 2600 Dodge Street, Omaha, Nebraska 68131-2671. 12. Respondent Physicians has engaged in, and continues to engage in, a continuous and substantial course of business within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 13. Agatha Haut was insured under a life insurance policy with Physicians at the time of her death. 14. Respondent Veterans Life Insurance Company (hereinafter "Veterans") is a duly licensed insurance carrier with a place of business at 20 Moores Road, Frazer, Pennsylvania 19355. 15. Respondent Veterans has engaged in, and continues to engage in, a continuous and substantial course of business within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 16. Agatha Haut was insured under a life insurance policy with Veterans at the time of her death. 17. Plaintiffs believe and therefore aver that Respondent Henry Henson fraudulently obtained a power-of-attorney for his mother, Agatha Haut, and proceeded to utilize said document to facilitate activities contrary to the interests of the Haut Estate. 18. Plaintiffs believe and therefore aver that Respondent Henry Henson has misappropriated the Estate's money, assets, and property. 19. Plaintiffs believe and therefore aver that Respondent Henry Henson fraudulently and/or via the exertion of undue influence transferred title to Agatha Haut's property to himself. 20. Petitioner has filed a Complaint in Equity, requesting that this Honorable Court enjoin Respondent Henry Henson from spending or utilizing any of the funds or assets that he has already appropriated from the Haut Estate, and to enjoin Respondent Henry Henson from any taking any further action relating to the Estate and/or its assets. A copy of the Complaint is attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein. 21. The Petitioners are entitled to the relief requested for the following reasons: a. The Petitioners are threatened with immediate and irreparable harm given Respondent Henry Henson's past pattern of conduct, and present intent to defraud Petitioners, thereby unjustly enriching himself. b. In relation to the foregoing, immediate and irreparable injury will be sustained by Petitioners before a hearing can be held on Petitioners' motion for a preliminary injunction, in that Respondent Henry Henson is currently attempting to withdraw all or a portion of the deceased's proceeds on deposit; in that Respondent Henry Henson is attempting to acquire the deceased's life insurance proceeds; and in that Petitioners have reason to believe that Respondent Henry Henson will attempt to liquidate all assets to which he fraudulently acquired title, to include the deceased's residential property. c. The pressing necessity to avoid injurious consequences that cannot be repaired under any standard of compensation. d. Counsel for Plaintiffs has attempted to give notice, and received no reply, from the Respondent insurance companies. Copies of the letters that constitute said notice are attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated as if fully set forth herein. e. Under the attendant circumstances, the provision of advance notice to Respondent Henry Henson is a practical impossibility, insofar as Plaintiffs believe that any such notice would serve to expedite his efforts to liquidate the Estate's property. f The requested relief will serve to preserve the status quo which existed before the acts complained of in the complaint by restoring the last peaceable, noncontested status which preceded the controversy. WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests, pursuant to Pa. R.C.P. 1531(a), that a preliminary injunction forthwith be granted by this Court, prior to notice and hearing, in order to preserve the status quo until such time as this Court finally determines the rights of each party by: a. Enjoining Respondent Henry Henson from spending or utilizing any of the deceased's assets, no matter in what form, when acquired, or where situate; b. Enjoining Respondent Henry Henson from the receipt of any life insurance disbursements made on account of the death of Agatha Haut, by check or otherwise; c. Enjoining Respondent Globe from making any benefit payment related to a policy concerning Agatha Haut, to Henry Henson or any other individual, absent the Court's leave; d. Enjoining Respondent Physicians from making any benefit payment related to a policy concerning Agatha Haut, to Henry Henson or any other individual, absent the Court's leave; e. Enjoining Respondent Veterans from making any benefit payment related to a policy concerning Agatha Haut, to Henry Henson or any other individual, absent the Court's leave; and, f Scheduling and holding a timely hearing, pursuant to Pa. R.C.P. 1531(d), pertaining to the continuance of such preliminary injunction. submitted, BAYLEY & WHARE Jame elson, Esquire Attorney I.D.

Specifically, the premium payment for May 15, 2003 was not received, and therefore, the cash value of the Policy was used to continue coverage under the extended term non-forfeiture option until December 8, 2004, the date the coverage expired when the cash value was exhausted. 17. After reasonable investigation, Veterans Life is without knowledge or information sufficient to form a belief as to the truth of the averments in this paragraph, and therefore, the same are denied. 18.

The averments in this paragraph constitute conclusions of law to which no response is required. To the extent a response is required, after reasonable investigation, Veterans Life is without knowledge or information sufficient to form a belief as to the truth of the averments in this paragraph, and therefore, the same are denied. d.

NEW MATTER 26. At all times relevant, and at the time the beneficiaries were changed on said policies, Agatha Haut was incompetent, senile, and not capable of changing her beneficiaries. 27. Agatha R. Haut at all times relevant had dementia and could not have made the changes to the policies. 28. In fact she had been so diagnosed. 29. Petitioner changed the beneficiary to himself, at such time as Agatha R. Haut was incompetent. 30. This fraudulent change was unlawful, and inequitable. 31. The true beneficiaries should get the money, and the changes made by Henry D. Henson, Sr. should be nullified. 32. Medical evidence is available upon information and belief to show this is true. 33. Further, petitioner has a Federal Fraud conviction. 34. Henry D. Henson, Sr. secreted his Mother away, denied family contact with her, and had a close and confidential relationship with her. 35. To the extent these matters were changed to the benefit of Henry D. Henson by any power of attorney, if this is how it was accomplished, said changes were fraudulent. WHEREFORE a hearing to determine who is the beneficiary of said policies is demanded, where evidence of Agatha R. Haut's medical and mental condition, and the timing and nature of the beneficiary changes can be explored.. Respectfully Submitted, Rominger & Associates Date: March 7, 2010 -Karl E.

Henson, individually and as Executor of the Estate of Agatha R. Haut, by and through his counsel Robert P. Grubb, Esquire, and in support of his Answer to Plaintiff's new matter, avers as follows: 26. The averment of paragraph 26 is a legal conclusion to which no responsive pleading is required. To the extent that a responsive pleading is required, the averment of paragraph 26 is denied. 27. Denied. By way of further answer, even if the decedent was diagnosed with dementia, a mere diagnosis of dementia, whether mild or advanced, does not preclude the decedent from being capable of testamentary intent. 28. Denied. Strict proof demanded. 29. Denied in part and admitted in part. It is denied that Henry D. Henson changed the beneficiary to himself while the decedent was incompetent. It is admitted that Henry D. Henson changed the beneficiary back to himself but only after he had first changed the beneficiary from himself to "The Estate of Agatha R. Haut". By way of further answer, Henry D. Henson was named as sole beneficiary on the insurance policies, the subject of this action, by Agatha R. Haut. At a subsequent date, acting as Agent under a General Power of Attorney, Henry D. Henson changed the beneficiary designation from himself to "The Estate of Agatha R. Haut" for the sole purpose of enticing the petitioner and his siblings to visit and pay attention to their mother. At a latter date, after such enticement failed to garner the attention of the petitioner and his siblings, Henry D. Henson, Sr., acting as Agent under a General Power of Attorney, changed the beneficiary of the life insurance policies back to "Henry D. Henson, Sr.," their prior designation. 30. The averment of paragraph 30 is a legal conclusion to which no responsive pleading is required. To the extent that a responsive pleading is required, the averment of paragraph 30 is denied. 31. Admitted in part and denied in part. Admitted to the extent the true beneficiary should receive the proceeds of the life insurance policies which have been paid into court. Denied to the extent the changes made by Henry D. Henson should be nullified and further denied that the "true" beneficiaries are anyone other than Henry D. Henson. 32. Denied. By way of further answer, the petitioner makes no specific pleading as to time or diagnosis simply broad, unsupported and baseless allegations and averments. 33. Admitted. By way of further answer, the Petitioner has also been convicted of multiple Federal fraud convictions concerning the same incident of which Henry Henson was convicted, involving a family business and more than 10 years ago. 34. Denied. Strict proof demanded. By way of further answer, the Petitioner makes no specific pleading as to denying family contact or a confidential relationship, only broad, unsupported and baseless allegations. To the contrary, the very reason Henry Henson originally changed the beneficiary designations was to encourage the attention and contact from the decedent's children including the petitioner which he failed to provide. Those family members who wanted to visit their mother were never denied access and more than one child made multiple visits with their mother. 35. The averment of paragraph 35 is a legal conclusion to which no responsive pleading is required. To the extent that a responsive pleading is required, the averment of paragraph 35 is denied. WHEREFORE, Henry D. Henson, Sr., respectfully requests this Honorable Court to dismiss the new matter raised by Paul H. Haut, Jr., and issue an order directed to the Cumberland County Prothonotary to pay the life insurance proceeds of Globe Life and Accident Insurance Company policy No. A046490 and Veterans Life Insurance Company policy No. 400MJ81207 on the life of Agatha R. Haut and which have been paid into court, together with the accrued interest thereon as of December 31, 2009 and any additional interest accrued on account through the date of final distribution, to Henry D. Henson, Sr., the sole beneficiary of record. Respectfully submitted, METZGER, WICKERSHAM, KNAUSS & ERB, P.C. By: qAep?l. b Esqui re . N .76057 321 Nortfi-Fnofit Street P.
