CIVIL ACTION - LAW
ANGELA M. KING,
IN CUSTODY
Defendant
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 concerning the child who is the subject of this
litigation is as follows:
NAME
Anthony Philip Sabine
DATE OF BIRTH
February 19, 1989
CURRENTLY IN THE CUSTODY Or::
Father
2. Father filed a Complaint for Custody on or about February 1, 2006. He alleges
that he has had primary custody of the child since January 2006 and seeks an Order
confirming primary custody in him. Attending the conference were: the Father, Phillip A.
Sabine, Jr., and his counsel, Keith O. Brenneman, Esquire; the Mother, Angela M. King, did
not attend, No counsel appeared on Mother's behalf,
3. Service: Father's counsel reports that he served Mother with a copy of tile
Complaint for Custody and subsequently filed a Certificate of Service regarding the
Complaint. Father also produced a letter dated January 30, 2006 to Ms. King from Thomas
J. Hughes, a Cumberland County Juvenile Probation Officer, The letter indicates that the
boy's school district's guidance office had been contacted by the maternal grandmother.
Subsequently, the Juvenile Probation Officer made a change in Anthony's disposition
regarding his living arrangement. The letter indicates that it appears to be in Anthony's best
interest to reside with his father. The letter goes on to inform Mother that the child's
approved residence, as ordered through the Cumberland County Juvenile Probation
Department, is with his Father in Newark, Delaware.
4, Father's position on custody is as follows: Father reports that the child has
been living with him since January 2006 and that he has been off probation as of two weeks
prior to the March 17, 2006 Custody Conciliation Conference. Father resides in Newark,
Delaware with his wife and children, He believes that he can provide the child with a stable,
caring and nurturing environment, and apparently had the support of the Probation Office to
begin to do that earlier this year.
I. ...
NO. 06-619 CIVIL TERM
5. Mother's position on custodv is as follows: Mother's position is unknown as
she did not attend the Custody Conciliation Conference, Father did not serve the Order
scheduling the conference. However, he notes that the address where he served the
Complaint is the same as the address that appeared on the envelope provided for sending
notice of the Custody Conciliation Conference to Mother from the Prothonotary's Office.
The Conciliator also notes that it is the same address at which the Juvenile Probation
Department sent notice of the change in the child's approved residence.
6, Because Father is seeking an Order confirming the status quo which was
arranged by Juvenile Probation, the Conciliator attaches a recommended Order providing
for shared legal custody, primary physical custody for Father, and partial custody arranged
by mutual agreement of the parties. Counsel for Father shall be required to serve a copy of
this Order upon Mother and file a Return of Service after this has been accomplished. In
the event that Mother is grieved by the terms of the Order, she retains the right to petition
the Court for modification thereof, In such circumstances, a Custody Conciliation
Conference will be scheduled in due course.
