JOHN HENCH, CIVIL ACTION -LAW
Defendant IN DIVORCE
PETITION FOR EMERGENCY RELIEF TO REINSTATE WIFE ON HUSBAND'S
HEALTH INSURANCE PURSUANT TO PENNSYLVANIA DIVORCE CODE SECTION
3502 (d)
AND NOW, this 10TH day of July, 2007, comes the Petitioner Tina Hench by and through
her attorney, Joanne Harrison Clough, Esquire, and respectfully files this Petition for Emergency
Relief to Reinstate her on husband's health insurance and in support thereof avers as follows:
1. Petitioner/Plaintiff Tina Hench is an adult individual who currently resides at 11
Park Street, Mount Holly Springs, Cumberland County, PA 17065. She filed the instant Divorce
Action on May 25, 2006
2. Respondent John Hench is an adult individual who currently resides at 1482
Center Road, Newville, Cumberland County, PA 17241.
3. At the time of the filing of the Divorce Action John Hench provided health
insurance for his wife Tina through his employment with WSI Harrisburg Hauling where he is
employed as a manager.
4. Petitioner wife has been covered by said insurance for at least the past five (5)
calendar years.
5. On or about July 4, 2007, Respondent John Hench contacted Petitioner Tina
Hench by telephone and advised her that as of Monday, July 2, 2007, he had removed her from
his health insurance coverage through his employer without any prior notice to Petitioner.
6. Petitioner Tina Hench is currently undergoing medical treatment and counseling
services which were covered by said health insurance and she has no health insurance of her own
and health insurance is not available to her at a reasonable cost.
7. Petitioner Tina Hench is of the belief and therefore avers that John Hench dropped
her from his health insurance through his employment for spite without any prior notice to her
causing her to suffer immediate harm in that she does not have sufficient assets or income to pay
for all of her medical and counseling needs without the benefit of said insurance.
8. Section 3502, subparagraph d, specifically provides that during the course of a
Divorce Action: "the Court may direct the continued maintenance and beneficiary designation of
existing policies insuring the life or health of either party which were originally purchased during
the marriage and owned by or within the effective control of either party".
9. The health insurance coverage Petitioner had through Respondent husband's
employment, Capital Blue Cross through Northeast Waste Services and also provided in addition
to major medical, Delta Dental, NVA Vision, and ESIRX prescription coverage.
10. Since July 2, 2007, Petitioner is of the belief as directly informed by Respondent,
that she no longer has any health insurance coverage through Capital Blue Cross, Delta Dental,
NVA Vision or ESIRX prescription, and she needs to have said health insurance benefits
immediately reinstated.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner Tina Hench respectfully requests this Honorable Court
pursuant to Section 3502 (d) of the Pennsylvania Divorce Code, issue an Order immediately
directing Respondent husband John Hench to reinstate Tina Hench's health insurance coverage
with Capital Blue Cross, Delta Dental, NVA Vision, and ESIRX prescription program and grant
any further relief this Court deems appropriate.

26 West High Street
Carlisle, PA
Now comes the Petitioner, Marylou Matas, Esquire and the law firm of Saidis,
Flower and Lindsay and files this Petition to Withdraw and in support thereof avers as
follows:
1. Your Petitioner is Marylou Matas, Esquire, counsel of record for John Hench,
Defendant in the above referenced Divorce action.
2. The action was filed on May 26, 2006, and Petitioner or Petitioner's law firm, after
consultation with Defendant, has been representing Defendant on his behalf since that
time.
3. In August, 2009 after consultation with Defendant, the Petitioner responded to a
request for settlement by Plaintiff's counsel.
4. Since that date, Petitioner forwarded numerous letters and requests from Plaintiff's
counsel to Defendant, with requests for contact, but had no meaningful response.
5. Plaintiff's counsel has threatened to list the case for trial with the Master and
Petitioner will be unable to prepare a defense to the action without the availability of the
Defendant.
6. Petitioner's continued representation of Defendant has been rendered unreasonably
difficult by virtue of the client's unavailability and good cause exists therefore under Rule
1.16(c)(5) of the Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct for Petitioner's withdrawal of
appearance in the case.
7. Despite a Fee Agreement requiring payment by Defendant for Petitioner's services
on an hourly basis and the submission of bills to the Defendant, Petitioner has received
no fee on a regular basis from the Defendant for representing him in this action.
8. The continued representation of Defendant without payment of Petitioner's fees or
prospect of such payment has resulted in and will further result in unreasonable financial
burden on Petitioner and good cause exists therefore under Rule 1.16(c)(5) of the
Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct for Petitioner's withdrawal.
-V Ppr J,l' 10f 4, Gc 1
9. There is no pending hearing in this matter.
10. Counsel for the Plaintiff HAS been consulted and HAS no objection to Petitioner's
withdrawal from this case at this time.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests that this Court grant Petitioner leave to
withdraw her appearance for Defendant in this action.

Law Offices of
Saidis
Sullivan
& Rogers
26 West High Street
Carlisle, PA 17013
1. Your Petitioner is Marylou Matas, Esquire, counsel of record for John Hench,
Defendant in the above referenced Divorce action.
2. The action was filed on May 26, 2006, and Petitioner or Petitioner's law firm, after
consultation with Defendant, has been representing Defendant on his behalf since that
time.
3. In August, 2009 after consultation with Defendant, the Petitioner responded to a
request for settlement by Plaintiff's counsel.
4. Since that date, Petitioner forwarded numerous letters and requests from Plaintiff's
counsel to Defendant, with requests for contact, but had no meaningful response.
5. Plaintiff's counsel has threatened to list the case for trial with the Master and
Petitioner will be unable to prepare a defense to the action without the availability of the
Defendant.
6. Petitioner's continued representation of Defendant has been rendered unreasonably
difficult by virtue of the client's unavailability and good cause exists therefore under Rule
1.16(c)(5) of the Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct for Petitioner's withdrawal of
appearance in the case.
7. Despite a Fee Agreement requiring payment by Defendant for Petitioner's services
on an hourly basis and the submission of bills to the Defendant, Petitioner has received
no fee on a regular basis from the Defendant for representing him in this action.
Plaintiff
Defendant
¦
8. The continued representation of Defendant without payment of Petitioner's fees or
prospect of such payment has resulted in and will further result in unreasonable financial
burden on Petitioner and good cause exists therefore under Rule 1.16(c)(5) of the
Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct for Petitioner's withdrawal.
9. There is no pending hearing in this matter.
10. Counsel for the Plaintiff has been consulted and has no objection to Petitioner's
withdrawal from this case at this time.
WHEREFORE, Petitioner requests that this Court grant Petitioner leave to
withdraw her appearance for Defendant in this action.
Respectfully submitted,
