CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL
PROCEDURE 1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following
report:
1. The pertinent information conceming the Child who is the subject of this
litigation is as follows:
NAME
Brooklyn Albright
DATE OF BIRTH
CURRENTLY IN CUSTODY OF
April 5, 2000 Mother
2. A Conciliation Conference was held April 11, 2002 with the following
individuals in attendance: The Mother, Jillyan N. Albright, with her counsel, David
Perkins, Esquire, and the Father, Dennis O'Donnell, with his counsel, Brian P. Raney,
Esquire.
3. The Honorable George E. Hoffer, President Judge, previously entered an
Order of Court, pursuant to a Petition for Emergency Relief, dated March 6, 2002
granting primary physical custody of the child to Mother, ordering Father to return the
child to Mother at once and granting Father periods of partial custody.
4. Father's position on custody is as follows: Father seeks shared legal and
physical custody on a week on/week off basis. Father maintains that he previously cared
for the child who has special needs. Father claims Mother abandoned the child for a
four-month period in 2001. The child was cared for during that time period by maternal
grandparents and Father. Father alleges Mother has a drug problem, has committed
adultery, has lived with various men at various addresses. Mother is presently living with
her parents and Father alleges that the maternal grandparents are actually caring for the
child instead of Mother. Lastly, Father claims Mother withheld custody of the child from
Father, making it necessary for Father to take the baby from her day care provider and
withholding the child from Mother. The parties live in close proximity to one another
and a week on/week off custody arrangement would not be a hardship for either. Father
is presently unemployed and can transport the child to her physical therapy in
Philadelphia.
5. Mother's position on custody is as follows: Mother seeks legal custody
and primary physical custody with Father having an alternating weekend schedule.
Mother contends that Father has not cared for the child alone as he indicates· Mother
denies drug use. Mother advises that Father has a prior conviction for burglary for which
he is still on probation or parole and has a theft charge pending. Mother indicated that
she intends to enter the Navy on July 16, 2002 and proposes that the maternal
grandparents become custodians for the child once she departs for the service. Mother is
employed as a hostess/waitress in Chambersburg. She can arrange her schedule to
transport the child to her physical therapy appointments also.
