PETITION FOR DISTRIBUTION OF PRINCIPAL
FOR CARE OF A MINOR IN ACCORDANCE WITH
20 Pa. C. S. & 5164
TO THE HONORABLE, THE JUDGES OF THE SAID COURT:
AND NOW COMES the Petitioner, Geneva B. Politzer, by and through her attorneys, Saidis,
Flower & Lindsay, and respectfully states as follows:
1. Petitioner is the mother of Michael D. Politzer-Hardy, a minor twelve years of age.
2. Michael D. Politzer-Hardy, the minor, was born on June 6, 1993, and resides with the
petitioner, at 42 Kenwood Avenue, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
3. By Order of May 6,2005, this Court appointed F&M Trust Company and the petitioner as co-
guardians of the estate of the minor, with respect to sixteen thousand ($16,000) dollars of life
insurance proceeds of which the minor was beneficiary.
4. Subsequently, the minor was found to be beneficiary of his deceased father's tax-deferred
retirement plan, which designated the minor's paternal grandmother, Ann Ripley, of Rutland,
VT, as guardian.
5. The tax-deferred retirement account of approximately $12,000 was paid out in a lump sum
during 2005, and, after making certain expenditures therefrom on the minor's behalf, Mrs.
Ripley added the balance to the minor's guardianship account at F&M Trust.
6. By Order of this Court dated April 28, 2005, principal was disbursed from the guardianship
account, as follows: $60 for new mattress; $636.71 for travel expenses; $1,500 for home
remodeling; $500 for attorney fees.
7. No other principal disbursements have been made from the account, which has a current
balance of$18,827.68.
8. As a result of the lump-sum distribution to Mrs. Ripley of the minor's father's tax-deferred
retirement account, the minor has a federal income tax ,liflbility for 2005 of $902.
