Ebert, Jr. CONCILIATION CONFERENCE SUMMARY REPORT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CUMBERLAND COUNTY CIVIL RULE OF PROCEDURE 1915.3-8(b), the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report: 1. The pertinent information pertaining to the child who is the subject of this litigation is as follows: Gabriel Arena, born August 29, 2004 2. A Conciliation Conference was held on April 11, 2006 with the following individuals in attendance: The Mother, Trish Stanifer, with her student attorney, Valerie Jackson of the Dickinson School of Law Family Law Clinic The Father, Steven A. Arena, with his counsel, Jessica Holst, Esquire 3. This case has a rather unique history. Apparently, the Father had not been seeing the child at all from November, 2004 through February of 2006. For some reason, the Mother then delivered custody of the child to the Father on what the Mother thought was a temporary basis. The Father thought it was a bit more than temporary. The Mother filed a Petition for Custody and a Petition for Special Relief. A short hearing was held before Judge Ebert who entered an Order dated March 10, 2006 giving custody to each party on a week onlweek off basis. 4. Father now suggests that the Mother is being investigated by Children's Services and that the Mother's home is not an appropriate environment for the child. Although Father went approximately 15 months without seeing the child at all, now Father is asserting that he should be the primary custodian and he desires a hearing on the issue. Mother is suggesting that she could live with the week on/week off arrangement on a temporary basis, but that in the long run primary custody should be returned to her because she has always been the primary custodian for the minor child. . . 5. The parties were unable to reach an agreement and the Conciliator recommends an Order in the form as attached. 6. The hearing in this case should take Y, day.
