The mother of the children is the Plaintiff, Cynthia L. Good, with a current mailing
address of 512 Sample Bridge Road, Enola, Cumberland County, Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, 17025.
The father of the children is the Defendant, Micah E. Good, with a current mailing
address of 1433 Peace Drive, Belleville, Illinois, 62220.
The parties remain married to each other; however, it is anticipated that a Complaint
in Divorce may be forthcoming from the Defendant.
4. The relationship of the Plaintiff to the children is that of biological mother, who
resides with her parents, the subject children's grandparents, Leslie and Diane Weller.
5. The relationship of the Defendant to the children is that of biological father. It
is unknown if the Defendant resides with anyone as of this filing.
6. Plaintiff has not participated as a party or witness, or in another capacity, in
other litigation concerning the custody of the child in this or another court.
Plaintiff has no information of a custody proceeding concerning the child
pending in a court of this Commonwealth.
Plaintiff does not know of a person not a party to the proceeding who has
physical custody of the child or claims to have custody or visitation rights with respect to the
child.
. .
7. The best interest and permanent welfare of the child will be served by granting
Plaintiff the relief requested because:
a. Plaintiff is the natural, biological mother of the children and has played a
major role in the children's lives as their primary caregiver since the children's
birth.
b. Plaintiff has established a close bond with the children which should be
maintained and nurtured in a loving and emotionally secure environment,
fostered within recognized and comfortable surroundings.
c. Plaintiff desires to exercise proper and reasonable parental duties and to
enjoy the love and affection of the children in an emotionally secure
environment. The children, while entitled to establish and nurture a
. relationship with their natural mother, require more stability than the
Defendant can be reasonably expected to offer.
d. The children should be permitted to enjoy the continued care, love,
affection and emotional support which can be provided by the natural mother in
a loving and secure environment.
e. The children, both females, would benefit greatly from custody with their
natural mother who has been the primary caretaker of the children since their
birth.
f. The Defendant, presently in the United States military, is subject to duty
transfer at any time by the government and is called upon to complete
temporary duty assignments at the convenience of the government.
8. Each parent whose parental rights to the child has not been terminated and the
person who has physical custody of the children has been named as parties to this action.
WHEREFORE, Plaintiff respectfully requests this Honorable Court to grant primary
physical custody of the children.
