COMPLAINT
Plaintiff, Anthony M. Bonafede, by and through his attorneys, Byler, Goodley, Winkle &
Hetrick, P.C, files the within Complaint and in support thereof avers as follows:
1. Plaintiff, Anthony M. Bonafede is an adult individual with a principal place of
residence located at 5 Spring Hill Lane, Mountville, PA 17554.
2. Defendant, Brandon Kedrick is an adult individual with a last known residence
located at 33 Newville Road, Shippensburg, PA 17257.
3. On or about September 7,2004 Plaintiff was operating a motor vehicle on East
King Street in Shippensburg Borough, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania.
4. Plaintiff was stopped in traffic at a red light on East King Street.
5. While Plaintiff was stopped in traffic, Defendant drove his vehicle into the rear
end of Plaintiff's vehicle, pushing Plaintiff's vehicle into the car that was stopped in front of
Plaintiff.
2
6. The accident occurred at approximately 4:00 in the afternoon.
7. At the time of the accident, neither Plaintiff nor the automobile in front of him
were moving; they were completely stopped and had been for some time prior to Defendant
striking Plaintiff's vehicle in the rear.
8. At the time of the accident Plaintiff was wearing his seatbelt.
9. The impact of Defendant's vehicle striking Plaintiff's vehicle shoved Plaintiff
violently forward. The combination of his seatbelt and striking the vehicle in front of him
slammed Plaintiff violently backward. As a result of the accident, Plaintiff's head violently
struck his headrest.
10. Defendant failed to allow sufficient distance between his automobile and
Plaintiff's automobile in order to avoid a collision.
11, Defendant failed to take action to avoid colliding with Plaintiff's automobile
which was stopped in front of Defendant; Plaintiff's brake lights were operating at the time.
12. It is believed and therefore averred that the Defendant was traveling at a speed
which was not safe given the traffic conditions existing at the time of the accident.
13. Defendant owed a duty to Plaintiff to operate Defendant's vehicle in a manner so
as not to collide with Plaintiff's lawfully stopped vehicle.
14, Defendant's actions were clearly negligent as he failed to stop his vehicle at the
red light prior to running into the car that was already stopped in front of him.
15. Defendant's negligence was the proximate cause of Plaintiff's injuries described
in this Complaint.
3
16. Within a few days after the accident Plaintiff began to suffer from the following
symptoms:
a. Loss of short-term memory;
b. Intense headaches causing severe pain and nausea;
c. Lower back pain and soreness;
d. Occasional numbness of the back of Plaintiff s right leg; and
e. Occasional shooting pain in the front of Plaintiff s right leg.
17. With the exception ofthe short-term memory loss which resolved itself within the
first few weeks ofthe accident, all of the above symptoms continue with varying degrees of
severity to this day.
18, Beginning during the week of the accident and continuing through the filing of
this Complaint, Plaintiff has treated with various healthcare providers in an attempt to alleviate
the pain caused by the automobile accident.
19. To date, neither Plaintiff nor his healthcare providers have found any course of
treatment that permanently alleviates the pain suffered as a result of the accident.
20. Prior to the accident, Plaintiff was a healthy 22-year old man.
21. If Plaintiff incurs any medical expenses that are subject to recovery under the
Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Act or a federal statue which preempts
such Act, recovery is hereby sought.
22, As a result of the accident, Plaintiff has sustained pain, suffering and loss oflife's
pleasures.
23. The amount in controversy exceeds the amount above which arbitration is
mandatory in Cumberland County.
4
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff, Anthony M. Bonafede hereby demands judgment in his favor
and against Defendant, Brandon Kendrick as follows:
a. Reimbursement for legally recoverable medical expenses;
b. An amount to be determined at time of trail for Mr. Bonafede's pain,
