PETITION FOR MODIFICATION OF CUSTODY
AND NOW comes the Defendant, Timothy L. Palmer, by and through his attorney,
Nathan C. Wolf, Esquire, and files this petition for modification of custody, respectfully
representing as follows:
1. The plaintiff is Shanda Leer, formerly known as Shanda Palmer, an adult individual
residing at 6 North Chestnut Street, Dillsburg,York County,Pennsylvania 17019.
2. The defendant is Timothy L. Palmer, an adult individual residing at 130 Meals Drive,
Carlisle, Cumberland County,Pennsylvania 17013.
3. The plaintiff and defendant are the natural parents of two minor children,namely.
Jedaiah Palmer,born February 1,2000 and Caleb Palmer born September 28, 2011.
4. The children are presently the subject of an Order for Custody issued July 27`h, 2011 by
the Honorable Edward E. Guido which was the result of Mother's request to relocate with the
children to Florida which request was consented to by Father. A true and correct copy of the order
of which modification is sought is attached hereto as Exhibit"A."
5. On or about January 11,2013,Mother returned from Florida and moved with the
children to Dillsburg,Pennsylvania.
6. Father wishes to modify custody to expand the periods of partial physical custody that
he has with the children now that they are back in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and to
ensure that there is a clearly-defined schedule maximizing Father's time with the children.
7. The children have expressed a desire to have additional time with Father which Father
desires cannot accommodate of due to Mother's unwillingness to modify the Order.
8. The best interest and permanent welfare of the children will be served by granting the
relief requested because it will avoid any unmet expectations by either party and because it will
ensure the children are able to have the maximum amount of time to spend with Father.
9. The best interests and permanent welfare of the children would be served by this Court
issuing an Order modifying the Order of Court of July 27, 2011.
WHEREFORE, Defendant Timothy L. Palmer., prays this Honorable Court modifying the
Order of Court as requested herein along with any additional relief as the Court deems appropriate.
