action filed to civil action #2006-04697, and the Respondent in the instant Motion to
Order Compliance by and through his attorney, Jerry A. Weigle, Esquire, who answers
said Motion to Order Compliance as follows:
1. Admitted.
2. Admitted. A copy of the marital settlement agreement entered into is
attached hereto, made a part hereof and marked Exhibit A, as no copy was
attached to the Motion to Order Compliance.
3. Admitted.
4. Denied as stated. The relevant language of the marital settlement
agreement which refers to the loan repayment issue is found in Paragraph

5. Denied. Numerous requests to the movant from both the Respondent and
Counsel for the Respondent to indicate what efforts have been made from
January 2007 to the present to refinance, and the results of those efforts
have gone unanswered. Strict proof that the Movant has complied with
the spirit and the letter of the marital settlement agreement are demanded
at the scheduled hearing. Copies of relevant correspondence from
Counsel for the Respondent to the movant (prior to being advised that
Counsel had been obtained) and to Counsel for movant are attached
hereto, made a part, hereof and marked Respondent's exhibits "B" and
"C" respectively.
6. Denied as stated. Movant's good faith efforts to refinance and the
circumstances surrounding any denial of a refinancing effort or efforts are

student loan payments by the Respondent are required under the marital
settlement agreement.

Subject: Michael Lynn
Sheri:
The controlling language in your Marital Settlement Agreement dated January 22, 2007, is found on Page
2 of the document. (Paragraph 7 (a)(ii) ). Michael's obligation is to pay 1/2 of the principal loan obligation
upon your refinancing of said loan in your name only. That has not occurred, nor has Michael been
furnished with any information that you have made a good faith effort to refinance and have been
rejected. Michael has proof that he has paid $3,667.00) toward the loan since the Marital Settlement
Agreement was executed and will tender proof of the same upon being furnished with your current mailing
address. If we use a hypothetical refinance date of June 22, 2009 to match the June 22, 2009 bank
statement balance you provided of $15,063.69, Michael's obligation would be one-half of
$15,063.69 minus $3667.00 or $5698.35 obviously this amount will change each month until a refinance
occurs. ' .

RE: Lynn v. Lynn Separation agreement
Dear Attorney Arnold:
I do indeed represent Michael A. Lynn with respect to the above referenced matter.
Please find enclosed herewith a copy of the Marital Settlement Agreement prepared for
the couple by Attorney Mark Bayley in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The relevant language is
found under Paragraph 7 sub a ii. Michael has paid to date a total of $3547.00. The last
payment statement that was obtained from the bank shows a balance due and owing of
$15,063.69 as of June 22, 2009. We have been furnished with no.information whatsoever
as to whether or not Sherri has been able to refinance the loan in question or whether she
has even tried up to this point in time. I attempted to answer Sherri's question via e-mail
on July 24, 2009 and have enclosed a copy of the calculation that we made at this time
using a hypothetical refinance date of June 22, 2009. The only problem with that
message is -that my number was off slightly with what Michael has paid to date. The
number that I used was $3367.00, but the correct number $3547.00. At least you can see
our methodology in calculating what Michael owes Sheri. Copies of Michael's checks
and electronic transfers from M&T Bank and Sovereign Bank accounts are enclosed to
substantiate what he has paid to date. Basically, Sheri needs to refinance the loan so that
we have a firm number to deal with. We would then subtract what Michael has paid to
daze from his one-half of the obligation since he wasn't obligated to pay anything until a
refinance occurred.
Please review and advise at your first opportunity.
Very truly yours,
WEIGLE & ASSOCIATES, P.C.
