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 DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN CUSTODY OF
Eric B. Cantor September 25, 1990 Mother
Drew M. Cantor July 10, 1993 Mother
Cole J. Cantor October 6, 1998 Mother
2. A custody conciliation conference was held on March 31, 2006, which was concluded
before a comprehensive agreement was reached as the parties had a support conference
scheduled immediately following the conciliation. The conciliation was continued until
July 28, 2006 when the remaining issues were addressed at an additional conference. The
following individuals attended both conferences: The Father, Richard J. Cantor, with his
counsel, Barbara Sumple-Sullivan, and the Mother, Patricia E. Cantor, with her counsel,
Samuel L. Andes.
3. At t he July 2 8, 2 006 c onference, t he p arties a greed t o e ntry o f an 0 rder i n t he f orm a s
attached, except for the question of retention of the existing provision regarding non-
modification of child support based upon resultant changes to the custody schedule. The
Father and his counsel requested an opportunity to review that issue further before
committing to the provision. The conciliator agreed to hold the matter until notification by
the Father's counsel the following week. Subsequently other issues arose between the
parties leading to extension of time for forwarding the proposed Order until September 15,
and an additional request from the Mother's counsel for a further extension until September
30, 2006. whereupon if the conciliator did not hear anything to the contrary from the
parties, the terms of the parties' agreement at both conciliation conferences would be
forwarded to the Court. As no further communication was received from counsel by the
date of this Report and in light of the fact that this matter has been pending since March
2006, the conciliator recommends entry of an Order in the form as attached reflecting the
parties' agreement at the conferences.

V. CIVIL ACTION -CUSTODY
RICHARD J. CANTOR,
Defendant NO. 02-1303
PETITION FOR CONTEMPT
1. Petitioner is Defendant, Richard J. Cantor, an individual residing at 33
Ashton Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17015.
2. Respondent is Plaintiff, Patricia M. Cantor, an individual residing at 527
Mooreland Avenue, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013.
3. The parties are divorced.
4. Petitioner and Respondent are the natural parents of three (3) minor
children being Eric B. Cantor (D.O.B. 9/25/1990), Drew M. Cantor (D.O.B. 7/10/1993);
and Cole J. Cantor (D.O.B. 10/06/1998).
5. The present Custody Order is dated October 4, 2006. A true and correct
copy of this order is attached hereto as Exhibit A and is incorporated herein by
1
reference.
6. Respondent has willfully failed to comply with the Paragraph 3 of the
current Court Order dated October 4, 2006 which provides, inter alia:
3. The Father shall have custody of the Children in accordance with the
following schedule:
A. Every week from Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. until Wednesday
morning at 8:00 a.m. when the Children shall return to the
Mother or be transported to school.
B. Every week from Thursday at 6:00 p.m. through Friday
morning at 8:00 a.m. when the Children shall return to the

C. On alternating weekends from, Friday at 6:00 p.m. through
Sunday at 6:00 p.m. during the school year or through
Monday morning at 8:00 a.m. during the Summer, when
Father shall transport the Children to the Mother's residence
before work.
7. Respondent consistently does not have the children available for
Petitioner's custodial periods. Typically, Petitioner waits ten, fifteen minutes or more
which has made him late for appointments with the children. Petitioner knows
Respondent to be very prompt in all that she does and he sees this as a way to simply
antagonize him. Times at issue for Respondent's contempt include, but are not limited
to the following:
A. On March L 2007, Respondent was in contempt of paragraph 3B of the
October 4, 2006 Order. Respondent failed to have the parties' son,
Cole, available for Petitioner to pick up. Respondent did not call
Petitioner to advise him Cole would not be available or provide any
other information on the situation.
B. On March 8, 2007, Respondent was in contempt of paragraph 3B of the
October 4, 2006 Order. Respondent failed to have any of the children
2
available for Petitioner to pick up. Petitioner was at Respondent's
residence at 6:04 p.m. on that Thursday and waited until 6:20 p.m. and
the children never came out. Respondent did not call Petitioner to
advise him the children would not be available or provide any other
information on the situation.
C. On March 165 2007, Respondent was in contempt of paragraph 3C of
the October 4, 2006 Order. Respondent failed to have the parties' son,
Eric, available for Petitioner to pick up. Petitioner was at Respondent's
residence at 6:00 p.m. on that Friday to pick up the children for his
weekend. Respondent did not call Petitioner to advise him Eric would
not be available or provide any other information on the situation.
D. On May 10, 2007, Respondent was in contempt of paragraph 3B of the
October 4, 2006 Order. Respondent failed to have the parties' son,
Drew, available for Petitioner to pick up. Petitioner was delayed
because he was waiting for the parties' son, Eric, to finish his lacrosse
practice. (Lacrosse practice typically ends at 6:00 p.m. and Petitioner
picks up the other children.) However, on that day, practice had run
until 6:30 p.m. Petitioner called to let Respondent know the situation,
but Respondent had already taken Drew out for dinner and had Drew
explain to Petitioner that he could not go with him because Petitioner
was 30 minutes late.
E. On May 18, 2007, Respondent was in contempt of Paragraph 3C of the
October 4, 2006 Order. Respondent did not have the parties' son, Cole,
available for Petitioner to pick up. Petitioner has no knowledge why
Cole was not available to pick up. Also, on this date, Petitioner arrived
at 6:08 p.m. and the parties' son, Drew, came out to Petitioner's vehicle.
He was crying and telling Petitioner that he needed to switch the
custody weekends so he could see his friend, Daulton. (Daulton is
Respondent's boyfriend's son.) Drew went back into the house and
came back out to Petitioner's vehicle with a calendar to show him that
Daulton's weekends with his father do not match the parties' son's
weekends with their mother. Respondent then called Petitioner on his
cell phone while he was in front of her residence and began blaming
him for the mismatched weekends, although the weekend schedule had
been established at mutual agreement of the parties. Petitioner said he
was not discussing it and hung up the phone. Petitioner's boyfriend,
Brian Taylor, then proceeded to come out of the house, menacingly
approached Petitioner's vehicle and gave Petitioner the "middle finger."
Taylor's actions made Drew even more emotionally upset.
F. On June 5, 2007, Respondent e-mailed a request to have the children on
Petitioner's Thursday custodial time because of the children's after
3
school parties. Petitioner e-mailed Respondent back on June 5, 2007
advising Respondent that she could have the children on Thursday
provided he could have them on August 3. Respondent did not respond
to this e-mail. On June 6, 2007, Petitioner e-mailed her again requesting
a response. Respondent did not respond to this e-mail either. On June
7, Petitioner sent a third e-mail advising that since he had received no
response and there was no confirmation on switching days, he would be
picking the children up on his ordered time on Thursday pursuant to
Paragraph 3B. When he arrived at 5:58 p.m. to pick up the children, the
parties' son, Drew, came out to Petitioner's vehicle and said that they
were having a party at Respondent's. Petitioner called Respondent and
Respondent said she had sent an e-mail, but he just must have not
received it. In order not to upset the children, Petitioner left without any
of them and without confrontation with Petitioner.
G. On June 15, 2007, a regular visitation period, Petitioner called
Respondent to let her know he was on his way to pick up the children.
There was no answer on Respondent's cell or home phone. Petitioner
arrived at 6:02 p.m. and Cole and Drew were skateboarding in the road
with their grandmother watching. They were not available to leave until
6:30 p.m. Eric had friends over at Respondent's house and was not
ready to leave. The children all knew that when Petitioner picked them
up, they were going to be leaving town and staying in Hershey, PA.
Respondent brought Eric to the hotel the next day.
8. Petitioner has also acted in violation of Paragraph 2 of the Order of Court
dated October 4, 2006, which requires cooperation with all school, physicians, health
care providers, and other third parties. Times at issue are as follows:
A. March 5, 2007 and March 19, 2007-Respondent cancelled the parties'
son, Eric's, appointments with his counselor, Marcia Gelman.
B. April 6, 2007- Respondent again cancelled the parties' son, Eric's,
appointment with his counselor, Marcia Gelman, because her family
was visiting. Petitioner took him to this appointment and paid for the
session.
9. Respondent is making this current custodial situation very stressful for the
4
children. This is resulting in at least one child, Eric, doing poorly in school.
10. This situation could be made better by imposition of a parent coordinator to
take the children out of the middle of these occurrences.
11. Respondent continues to modify the custody order without the mutual
agreement of Petitioner or notice to Petitioner and withholds the children from
Petitioner.
12. Judge Wesley Oler, Jr. entered the present Custody Order dated October 4,
2006 in this matter.
13. Opposing counsel has been provided with a copy of this Petition and no
concurrence has been received.
14. Petitioner requests a hearing be scheduled:
a. To schedule make up time for custodial days lost by Petitioner with the
children;
b. To include in the present order that the parties are to meet at the
restaurant, Friendly's on Walnut Bottom Road, Carlisle, a neutral
location, for the custody exchanges;
5
c. To require the parties share the cost of a "Parent Coordinator" as
appointed to work with the parties to avoid future disputes. The parties
shall mutually agree on the designated person with in five (5) days or
Marcia Gelman, the parties' counselor, shall be deemed designated as
the Parent Coordinator;
d. To enter judgment against Respondent for Petitioner's counsel fees
incurred in the preparation , filing, and hearing of this Petition which
fees shall be at least seven hundred fifty dollars ($750.00).
e. To hold Respondent in contempt and to fine and/or otherwise

before a comprehensive agreement was reached as the parties had a support conference
scheduled immediately following the conciliation. The conciliation was continued until
July 28, 2006 when the remaining issues were addressed at an additional conference. The
following individuals attended both conferences: The Father, Richard J. Cantor, with his
counsel, Barbara Sumple-Sullivan, and the Mother, Patricia E. Cantor, with her counsel,

the Father's counsel the following week. Subsequently other issues arose between the
parties leading to extension of time for forwarding the proposed Order until September 15,
and an additional request from the Mother's counsel for a further extension until September
30, 2006. whereupon if the conciliator did not hear anything to the contrary from the
parties, the terms of the parties' agreement at both conciliation conferences would be

DEFENDANT'S PETITION TO MODIFY
AND NOW comes the above-named Defendant, by her attorney, Samuel L. Andes,
and files the following Petition to Modify this court's order of 4 October 2006, based upon
the following:
1. The Petitioner herein is the Defendant. The Respondent herein is the
Defendant.
2. The parties are the parents of three minor children, Eric B. Cantor, now age
16, born 25 September 1990, Drew M. Cantor, now age 14, born 10 July 1993, and Cole J.
Cantor, now age 8, born 16 October 1998. The custody of those children is the subject of
an order previously entered by this court on 4 October 2006, a copy of which is attached
hereto and marked as EXHIBIT A.
3. Defendant requests this court modify its prior order to award her primary
physical custody of the children. Such an award will be in the best interest of the children
for many reasons, which include the following:
A. The current custody arrangement is not successful or satisfactory,
in large part because the Plaintiff refuses to cooperate, or even communicate,
with Defendant regarding the children; and
B. The children are subjected to emotional strain, abuse, and turmoil
by the Plaintiff, particularly when they are in his custody; and
C. The children do not get along well with Plaintiff's new wife and
family and are frequently unhappy during their periods of custody with
Plaintiff; and
D. The children have expressed, on numerous occasions, that they
do not want to spend time in the custody of the Plaintiff; and
{
E. Defendant is able to provide a calm, stable, and loving home for
the children and, when they are in her physical custody, she is able to
insulate them from the stress and anxiety caused to them by the Plaintiff.
For ail of the above reasons, Defendant believes it is in the best interest of the children
that their primary physical custody be awarded to her.
4. The Honorable J. Wesley Oler, Judge of this Court, has entered the prior orders
in this custody action.
WHEREFORE, Defendant prays this court to modify its order of 4 October 2006 to
award her primary physical custody of all three of the parties' children.

PATRICIA E. CANTOR,
Defendant NO. 02-1303
PETITION FOR EMERGENCY RELIEF
1. Petitioner is Plaintiff, Richard J. Cantor, an adult individual residing at 33 Ashton
Street, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. 17015.
2. Respondent is Defendant, Patricia E. Cantor, an adult individual residing at 3
Tyler Court, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17015. Respondent is
currently remarried to Brian Taylor.
3. The parties are the natural parents of three (3) children. Two (2) of the parties'
children are presently minors: being Drew M. Cantor (Born July 10, 1993) and
Cole J. Cantor (Born October 16, 1998). The parties' child, Eric B. Cantor, is
presently emancipated and living away.
4. Numerous and continuing issues have been encountered by the Petitioner
regarding custody, especially related to exchanges.
5. The parties are subject to the Order of Court entered in this matter on October 4,
2006 providing for shared legal and physical custody of the children between the
parties. A true and correct copy of same is attached hereto as Exhibit "A."
6. The Order further provides at Paragraph 7 that the parent receiving custody of the
children shall be responsible to provide transportation for the exchanges. The
exchanges were to be taking place at the home of the parent relinquishing custody.
7. On or about August 6, 2009, Petitioner was at the home of their son's friend to
pick the child up. Respondent and her husband became aware that Petitioner was
at the home of this child's friend, came to the home in anger over a perceived
issue with their eldest son, pursued and confronted Petitioner, and then lunged at
him, grabbing his arm and lacerating into his wrist causing a wound.
8. After said altercation Petitioner filed a police report, forwarded a warning letter to
Respondent to refrain from future abusive behaviors, and filed a harassment claim
against Respondent, which action is pending adjudication at the District
Magistrate Court but not yet adjudicated.
9. Upon the filing of the police report and harassment action, Respondent advised
Petitioner that, upon advice of counsel, she was refusing to come to his home or
2
street to pick up their children. She indicated she refused to pick up the children
unless Petitioner dropped the charges.
10. On or about September 18, 2009, in an effort to effectuate the custodial change,
Petitioner then proceeded to return the child, Cole Cantor, to the Respondent's
house at 8:00 a.m. as was customary after dropping his son, Drew Cantor, off at
school.
11. After the child exited the car, Respondent's husband became irate and charged the
vehicle in which Petitioner was sitting at the curb in front of Respondent's
property. Petitioner drove away to avoid a confrontation.
12. Respondent's husband, Brian Taylor, then contacted the Carlisle Police and filed a
harassment action against Petitioner for allegedly flicking a toothpick on to a
sidewalk in front of Respondent's home.
13. Allegations made by Respondent's husband, Brian Taylor, to the police were
untrue. However, based on those allegations, a citation was issued by the Carlisle
Police against Petitioner for flicking a toothpick.
14. Petitioner is fearful due to the aggressive and irrational actions of Respondent and
her husband.
3
21. Petitioner requests that this Honorable Court modify the Order of Court dated
October 4, 2006, at Paragraph 7 to require the custodial exchange cite be modified
to the State Police Station parking lot in Carlisle.
22. Petitioner further requests that the Order include restrictions requiring the parties
to remain in their vehicles at the time of the exchange.
23. Additionally, given the recent police involvement between Petitioner and
Respondent's husband, Brian Taylor, Petitioner requests that this Honorable Court
restrict Mr. Taylor from being present at any custodial exchange between the
parties. This will further ease the tension when the children are present.
24. The Honorable Judge Oler had previously been assigned to this custody docket.
25. Counsel for Respondent has not provided concurrence with this Petition.
However, Attorney for Defendant has indicated that he believes this matter can be
resolved by a telephone conference between the Court and counsel. Attorney for
Plaintiff has no objection to this procedure in lieu of the more protracted route of
conciliation and/or rule.
5
WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests this Honorable Court issue an
Order modifying the October 4, 2006 Order to include:
1) Paragraph 7 shall be modified to provide that all custodial exchanges
between the parties shall take place at the State Police Station parking lot in
Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Also, the parties shall remain in their vehicles at
the time of exchange;
2) Respondent's husband, Brian Taylor, shall be restricted from being present
at any custodial exchange between the parties; and
3) Any other remedy the Court deems equitable.

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 DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN CUSTODY OF
Eric B. Cantor September 25, 1990 Mother
Drew M. Cantor July 10, 1993 Mother
Cole J. Cantor October 6, 1998 Mother
2. A custody conciliation conference was held on March 31, 2006, which was concluded
before a comprehensive agreement was reached as the parties had a support conference
scheduled immediately following the conciliation. The conciliation was continued until
July 28, 2006 when the remaining issues were addressed at an additional conference. The
following individuals attended both conferences: The Father, Richard J. Cantor, with his
counsel, Barbara Sumple-Sullivan, and the Mother, Patricia E. Cantor, with her counsel,
Samuel L. Andes.
3. At t he July 2 8, 2 006 c onference, t he p arties a greed t o e ntry o f a n 0 rder i n t he f orm a s
attached, except for the question of retention of the existing provision regarding non-
modification of child support based upon resultant changes to the custody schedule. The
Father and his counsel requested an opportunity to review that issue further before
committing to the provision. The conciliator agreed to hold the matter until notification by
the Father's counsel the following week. Subsequently other issues arose between the
parties leading to extension of time for forwarding the proposed Order until September 15,
and an additional request from the Mother's counsel for a further extension until September
30, 2006. whereupon if the conciliator did not hear anything to the contrary from the
parties, the terms of the parties' agreement at both conciliation conferences would be
forwarded to the Court. As no further communication was received from counsel by the
date of this Report and in light of the fact that this matter has been pending since March
2006, the conciliator recommends entry of an Order in the form as attached reflecting the
parties' agreement at the conferences.

IN CUSTODY
DEFENDANT'S ANSWER TO PLAINTIFF'S PETITION FOR EMERGENCY RELIEF
AND NOW comes the above-named Defendant, by her attorney Samuel L. Andes, and
makes the following Answer to Plaintiff's Petition for Emergency Relief:
1. Admitted.
2. Denied. Defendant resides at 527 Mooreland Avenue in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
3. Admitted.
4. Denied as stated. Although it is acknowledged that the parties have experienced
difficulties with regard to custody, including problems relating to their exchanges of physical
custody, Defendant states that the problems are caused by Plaintiff and his attitude and his
refusal to communicate with Defendant.
5. Admitted.
6. Admitted.
7. Admitted in part and denied in part. it is admitted that Defendant encountered
Plaintiff at the home of a friend of one of the children. Defendant denies that she confronted
Plaintiff, lunged at him, or wounded him. To the contrary, Defendant states that she attempted
to discuss with Plaintiff problems with one of their children and Plaintiff refused to discuss the
matter and turned to leave the room. When Plaintiff turned, Defendant touched his arm in an
effort to engage him in discussion and Plaintiff pulled away and left the room.
8. Defendant admits that Plaintiff filed a complaint with the District Magistrate which is
awaiting some disposition.
9. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that Defendant has declined to go
to Plaintiff's home, but denied that she has refused to pick up the children unless he drops the
citation he has filed against her. She declined to go to Plaintiff's home to pick up the children
because she received a letter from an attorney or law office representing Plaintiff warning her
not to go there or she could be the subject of a protection from abuse action or other legal action
and because she wants to avoid any further accusations by Plaintiff.
10. Admitted.
11. Denied. Defendant's did not "charge" Plaintiff's vehicle, in fact, did not approach
the vehicle or take any other action to cause a confrontation.
12. Denied as stated. Defendant and her husband contacted the police about Plaintiff's
conduct when Plaintiff comes to Defendant's home. As a result of the investigation by the
police, a citation was issued against Plaintiff and that matter is currently awaiting disposition.
13. Denied. The statements made by Brian Taylor to the police were accurate. The
police made an independent judgment to issue the citation to the Plaintiff for more reason than
"flicking a toothpick."
14. Denied as stated. Defendant denies that her actions have been "aggressive and
irrational" or have given Plaintiff any reason to be fearful.
15. Defendant denies the statements made in Paragraph 15 as to the cause of any need
for a neutral location for the exchanges, but admits that it is in the best interest of the parties that
such a neutral location be established. By way of further answer, she states that the parties
have, on some occasions since these problems arose, been able to work out an exchange of
custody at a playground near Defendant's home. She feels strongly that the children should not
be subjected to custody exchanges at a police station.
16. Denied. There is no reason for Plaintiff to fear for his safety or that the custody
exchanges took place in a "monitored and secured" public setting. Defendant believes that any
neutral location, particularly any public one, will avoid future disputes or confrontations between
the parties at the custody exchanges.
17. Defendant admits that Plaintiff has made such request but denies that the request and
the location for exchanges proposed by Plaintiff is a reasonable one. The children have
expressed strong and adamant opposition to having to go to a police station or similar location
for their custodial exchanges. The children fear public embarrassment by such an exchange
location.
18. Defendant admits Plaintiff proposed such alternative location but states that such a
location for exchanges is satisfactory for the reasons set forth in her Answer to Paragraph 17
above.
19. Admitted. By way of further answer, Defendant has acknowledged a willingness to
exchange custody at a public restaurant or other public locations other than a police station.
20. Denied. There is no reason why Plaintiff and Defendant cannot exchange custody
of the children at a public location without either of them exiting their vehicles or having any
communication with each other at the time of exchange.
21. Defendant admits that Plaintiff has made such requests but denies that it is
appropriate given the ages and wishes of the children. Defendant proposes a public location,
such as a restaurant for future custodial exchanges.
22. Admitted. Defendant concurs in that request and suggestion.
23. Denied. Defendant denies that her husband Brian Taylor has done anything that
would ease tension or has otherwise done anything improper. She is willing to include in the
order a prohibition upon anyone other than Plaintiff and Defendant being present at the custodial
exchanges as long as the order requires both parties to be punctual for such custody exchanges.
24. Admitted.
25. Admitted.
WHEREFORE, Defendant prays that Petitioner's Petition for Emergency Relief be
denied or, in the alternative, that the parties be directed to conduct future custody exchanges of
their children at the McDonald's restaurant in Carlisle or another neutral, but public, location
and that only Plaintiff and Defendant be present with the children for such custodial exchanges,
and that both parties be punctual and appear at the appointed time for all such custody
exchanges.

Exchanges of custody shall take place at the State Police Station parking
lot across from the Carlisle Hospital in Carlisle, Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania;
2. The parties' spouses or significant others shall not be present for the
exchanges of custody; and
3. Neither party shall leave his or her vehicle at the time of the exchanges.
A true and correct copy of the Order dated October 28, 2009 is attached hereto as
Exhibit B.
2
8. Although the October 28, 2009 Order has only been effective for less than
two weeks, Respondent has already willfully failed to comply with Paragraph 1 of same.
9. Specifically, on Thursday, November 5, 2009, the custodial exchange for
both of the parties' sons was to take place at the State Police Station parking lot where
Respondent was to relinquish custody of the children to Petitioner.
10. Petitioner waited for twenty minutes (20) at the State Police Station parking
lot for Respondent to bring the children. Petitioner then contacted Respondent via text
message to determine when she would be arriving. Respondent replied via text message
that they would not be coming because the children refused to be dropped off at the State
Police Station parking lot.
11. Petitioner left and indicated through text message to Respondent that he
expected Cole to be at the exchange place on Friday, November 6, 2009, in accordance
with the Orders.
12. Petitioner had previously coordinated his custodial periods with Drew for
Friday through Sunday by picking him up and dropping him off at Drew's friend's
house.
13. On Friday, November 6, 2009, Petitioner waited for twenty-five (25)
minutes at the State Police Station parking lot for Respondent to bring Cole. Petitioner
then contacted Respondent via text message to determine when she would be arriving.
Respondent replied via text message that Cole was not at her house and she had an
injection for a migraine and could not drive anyway.
14. Petitioner received no prior communication that she would not be meeting
Respondent at the required exchange place until Petitioner contacted her after the
exchange time had already passed.
15. The public exchanges at the State Police Station parking lot are necessary,
were sought in an effort to avoid confrontation between the parties and are presently
Court Ordered.
16. Respondent's failure to comply with the Orders is willful and continues to
further alienate the children from their Father.
17. Petitioner did not have any custodial period with his sons, Drew and Cole,
as required by the custodial schedule for Thursday, November 5, 2009 overnight.
4
Additionally, Petitioner did not have any custodial periods with his son, Cole, Friday,
November 6, 2009 through Sunday, November 8, 2009 as required by the custodial
schedule. The only contact Petitioner had with Cole during this time period was
proceeding to watch his soccer game on Saturday, November 7, 2009 at a public field.
18. Respondent continues to make exercise of Petitioner's custodial periods
very stressful for the children and Petitioner. She continues to fully disregard the
Custody Orders.
19. Petitioner is fearful that Respondent will not make the children available to
him at his scheduled custodial period today, Tuesday, November 10, 2009 at 6:00 p.m. at
the required exchange place.
20. The Honorable Judge J. Wesley Oler, Jr. has been assigned to this custody
matter.
21. Counsel for Respondent has not provided concurrence with this Petition.
22. Petitioner requests a hearing be scheduled:
a. To schedule make up time for custodial days lost by Petitioner with the
children;
b. To enter judgment against Respondent for Petitioner's counsel fees
incurred in the preparation, filing, and hearing of this Petition which
fees shall be at least seven hundred fifty dollars ($750.00).
c. To hold Respondent in contempt and to fine and/or otherwise
incarcerate Respondent for said contempt.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests that Respondent be held in contempt of Court
and requests an Order be entered granting the relief requested as set forth in the proposed
Order.

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 DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN CUSTODY OF
Eric B. Cantor September 25, 1990 Mother
Drew M. Cantor July 10, 1993 Mother
Cole J. Cantor October 6, 1998 Mother
2. A custody conciliation conference was held on March 31, 2006, which was concluded
before a comprehensive agreement was reached as the parties had a support conference
scheduled immediately following the conciliation. The conciliation was continued until
July 28, 2006 when the remaining issues were addressed at an additional conference. The
following individuals attended both conferences: The Father, Richard J. Cantor, with his
counsel, Barbara Sumple-Sullivan, and the Mother, Patricia E. Cantor, with her counsel,
Samuel L. Andes.
3. At the July 2 8, 2 005 conference, t 11e p artieS agreed t to e IIn-y o f an v^ rder in t he form a s
attached, except for the question of retention of the existing provision regarding non-
modification of child support based upon resultant changes to the custody schedule. The
Father and his counsel requested an opportunity to review that issue further before
committing to the provision. The conciliator agreed to hold the matter until notification by
the Father's counsel the following week. Subsequently other issues arose between the
parties leading to extension of time for forwarding the proposed Order until September 15,
and an additional request from the Mother's counsel for a further extension until September
30, 2006. whereupon if the conciliator did not hear anything to the contrary from the
parties, the terms of the parties' agreement at both conciliation conferences would be
forwarded to the Court. As no further communication was received from counsel by the
daze of this Report and in light of the fact that this matter has been pending since March
2006, the conciliator recommends entry of an Order in the form as attached reflecting the
parties' agreement at the conferences.

July 28, 2006 when the remaining issues were addressed at an additional conference. The
following individuals attended both conferences: The Father, Richard J. Cantor, with his

the Father's counsel the following week. Subsequently other issues arose between the
parties leading to extension of time for forwarding the proposed Order until September 15,
and an additional request from the Mother's counsel for a further extension until September
30, 2006. whereupon if the conciliator did not hear anything to the contrary from the
parties, the terms of the parties' agreement at both conciliation conferences would be

2006, the conciliator recommends entry of an Order in the form as attached reflecting the
parties' agreement at-the conferences.

?c)
v rn
Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17015.
2. Respondent is Defendant, Patricia M. Cantor, an individual residing at 527
Mooreland Avenue, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania 17013.
3. Petitioner and Respondent are the natural parents of three (3) children. Two
(2) of the parties' children are presently minors: Drew M. Cantor (D.O.B. 7/10/1993)
and Cole J. Cantor (D.O.B. 10/06/1998). The parties' child, Eric B. Cantor, is presently
emancipated and living away.
4. The parties are subject to the Order of Court entered in this matter on
October 4, 2006 providing for shared legal and physical custody of the children between
the parties. A true and correct copy of same is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
i
5. Numerous and continuing issues have been encountered by the Petitioner
regarding custody, especially related to exchanges.
6. As a result of these issues, Petitioner filed a Petition for Emergency Relief
on October 12, 2009 seeking the Court's intervention to require the custodial exchanges
take place in a public setting (the State Police Station parking lot in Carlisle, PA) and
that Respondent's husband, Brian Taylor, be restricted from being present at any
custodial exchange.
7. After a telephone conference between counsel for both parties and the
Honorable Judge Oler, an Order was entered on October 28, 2009, which provided:
1. Exchanges of custody shall take place at the State Police Station parking
lot across from the Carlisle Hospital in Carlisle, Cumberland County,
Pennsylvania;
2. The parties' spouses or significant others shall not be present for the
exchanges of custody; and
3. Neither party shall leave his or her vehicle at the time of the exchanges.
A true and correct copy of the Order dated October 28, 2009 is attached hereto as
Exhibit B.
2
8. Although the October 28, 2009 Order has only been effective for less than
two weeks, Respondent has already willfully failed to comply with Paragraph 1 of same.
9. Specifically, on Thursday, November 5, 2009, the custodial exchange for
both of the parties' sons was to take place at the State Police Station parking lot where
Respondent was to relinquish custody of the children to Petitioner.
10. Petitioner waited for twenty minutes (20) at the State Police Station parking
lot for Respondent to bring the children. Petitioner then contacted Respondent via text
message to determine when she would be arriving. Respondent replied via text message
that they would not be coming because the children refused to be dropped off at the State
Police Station parking lot.
11. Petitioner left and indicated through text message to Respondent that he
expected Cole to be at the exchange place on Friday, November 6, 2009, in accordance
with the Orders.
12. Petitioner had previously coordinated his custodial periods with Drew for
Friday through Sunday by picking him up and dropping him off at Drew's friend's
house.
13. On Friday, November 6, 2009, Petitioner waited for twenty-five (25)
minutes at the State Police Station parking lot for Respondent to bring Cole. Petitioner
then contacted Respondent via text message to determine when she would be arriving.
Respondent replied via text message that Cole was not at her house and she had an
injection for a migraine and could not drive anyway.
14. Petitioner received no prior communication that she would not be meeting
Respondent at the required exchange place until Petitioner contacted her after the
exchange time had already passed.
15. The public exchanges at the State Police Station parking lot are necessary,
were sought in an effort to avoid confrontation between the parties and are presently
Court Ordered.
16. Respondent's failure to comply with the Orders is willful and continues to
further alienate the children from their Father.
17. Petitioner did not have any custodial period with his sons, Drew and Cole,
as required by the custodial schedule for Thursday, November 5, 2009 overnight.
4
Additionally, Petitioner did not have any custodial periods with his son, Cole, Friday,
November 6, 2009 through Sunday, November 8, 2009 as required by the custodial
schedule. The only contact Petitioner had with Cole during this time period was
proceeding to watch his soccer game on Saturday, November 7, 2009 at a public field.
18. Respondent continues to make exercise of Petitioner's custodial periods
very stressful for the children and Petitioner. She continues to fully disregard the
Custody Orders.
19. Petitioner is fearful that Respondent will not make the children available to
him at his scheduled custodial period today, Tuesday, November 10, 2009 at 6:00 p.m. at
the required exchange place.
20. The Honorable Judge J. Wesley Oler, Jr. has been assigned to this custody
matter.
21. Counsel for Respondent has not provided concurrence with this Petition.
22. Petitioner requests a hearing be scheduled:
a. To schedule make up time for custodial days lost by Petitioner with the
I
children;
b. To enter judgment against Respondent for Petitioner's counsel fees
incurred in the preparation, filing, and hearing of this Petition which
fees shall be at least seven hundred fifty dollars ($750.00).
c. To hold Respondent in contempt and to fine and/or otherwise
incarcerate Respondent for said contempt.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests that Respondent be held in contempt of Court
and requests an Order be entered granting the relief requested as set forth in the proposed
Order.

IN CUSTODY
PETITION TO MODIFY
AND NOW comes the above-named Defendant, by her attorney Samuel L. Andes, and
petitions the court to modify its order of 4 October 2006, based upon the following:
1. The Petitioner herein is the Defendant. The Respondent herein is the Plaintiff.
2. The parties are the parents of three children, Eric B. Cantor, now an adult, Drew M.
Cantor, age 16, born 10 July 1993, and Cole J. Cantor, age 11, born 16 October 1998. The
children are the subject of an order entered by this court on 4 October 2006, a copy of which is
attached hereto and marked as EXHIBIT A.
3. Since the time that order was entered, circumstances have changed which require, in
Defendant's view, a significant modification of the order. The changes and circumstances
include:
A. The oldest child has become emancipated and the younger children are
now three years older than at the time the order was entered;
B. Defendant now has employment which restricts the hours she can
provide transportation for custody exchanges;
C. The children have come involved in activities, with the participation
of both parties, which make the schedule set out in the current order unworkable or
inconvenient;
D. Both children have expressed a desire to significantly modify the
custody order so that they are in a stable environment and consistent routine due to
academic requirements and their extra curricular activities.
E. The holiday schedule prevents each party from having all three of their
children together on certain holidays now that the oldest child, Eric is away from
college and only home for limited periods of times over the holidays.
F. The current schedule interferes with the child's activities and school
work and is disruptive as a result.
4. Defendant seeks to modify the current custody order so that the Plaintiff's time with
the child falls on weekends, from after school on Friday at 6:00 p.m. until Sunday evening, plus
holidays, periods of vacation, and the like. She believes that such a modification will simplify
the childrens' lives, and some of the disruption caused by the current custody schedule, and
improve the relationship between the parties as well as the relationship between Plaintiff and the
children.
5. Prior orders in this matter have been entered by the Honorable J. Wesley Oler.
6. The Plaintiff does not concur in Defendant's request for relief.
WHEREFORE, Defendant prays this court to modify its order in accordance with this
Petition.

Dear Judge Oler:
You have scheduled a hearing on the Plaintiff s Petition for Contempt and the
Plaintiff's Petition for Emergency Relief. The hearing is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. on 7
January 2010. Unfortunately, I am scheduled to be in another hearing that morning in a

Accordingly, I write to request that the hearing int his matter be postponed and
rescheduled for a time that I can attend.
I have sent a copy of this letter to Barbara Sumple Sullivan, Esquire, who
represents the Plaintiff. Hopefully she will concur in my request that the hearing be
rescheduled.
Sincerely,

a. Transportation for custody exchanges may
be provided by the parties' sons, Eric or Drew, if they are
available to provide such transportation.
b. If any of the children are involved in a
regularly scheduled activity at the time of exchange provided in
the order, the parent surrendering custody at that time shall
drop the children off at the site of their activity with the

receiving custody will be responsible to pick up the children or
child after the conclusion of that activity. In all other
regards, the prior provisions of our orders regarding
transportation and exchange of the children shall remain in
I

2. The Plaintiff is hereby awarded the following
additional times of custody of the children Drew and Cole to make
up for the periods of custody lost previously:

RICHARD J. CANTOR
vs.
IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF
Plaintiff CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA
2002-1303 CIVIL ACTION LAW
PATRICIA E. CANTOR
Defendant
Prior Judge: J. Wesley Oler, Jr.
IN CUSTODY
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 Children who are the subjects of this litigation is as
follows:
NAME
Drew M. Cantor
Cole J. Cantor
DATE OF BIRTH
July 10, 1993
October 16, 1998
2. A custody conciliation conference was held on January 29, 2010, with the following
individuals in attendance: the Father, Richard J. Cantor, with his counsel, Barbara Sumple-Sullivan,
Esquire, and the Mother, Patricia E. Cantor, with her counsel, Samuel L. Andes, Esquire.
3. The custody conciliation conference was scheduled and held on the Mother's Petition to
Modify. At the end of the conference, the conciliator was asked to hold this matter open pending
further advice from counsel for the parties after further discussions with their clients on certain points.
4. The Mother's counsel advised the conciliator on April 15, 2010 that he had not heard from
his client and believed that she may not want to pursue the matter at this time but that counsel would
contact me if that was not the case.
5. As no further request has been received from either party or counsel, and it does not appear
that a further Order is necessary at this time, the conciliator recommends an Order in the form as
attached dismissing the pending Petition.
Date Dawn S. Sunday, Esquire
Custody Conciliator
