Plaintiff IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA v. NO. 2006-5396 CIVIL TERM ELWOOD 1. YOHE, II CIVIL ACTION-EQUITY Defendant PETITION TO STRIKE AND/OR OPEN JUDGMENT Now, comes Defendant, Elwood J. Yohe, II, by and through his attorneys, O'BRIEN, BARIC & SCHERER, and files the within Petition to Strike and/or Open Judgment and, in support thereof, sets forth the following: 1. On or about August 12, 1999, Defendant, Elwood J. Y ohe II ("Defendant"), entered into a Conditional Sale Contract Note ("Note") with Gulick Truck Parts and Service, Inc. for a 1996 International Conventional Road Tractor, SN #2HSFHASR1 TC051 029 ("Road Tractor"). 2. Thereafter, Gulick assigned the Note to Plaintiff, ORIX Financial Services, Inc. f/k/a ORIX Credit Alliance, Inc. ("Plaintiff'). 3. On or about March 2000, Defendant defaulted in making payments under the Note. 4. On or about May 2000, Plaintiff repossessed the Road Tractor and sold it at a Public Sale ("Public Sale"). 5. Pursuant to 42 Pa.C.S.A. ~ 5525, contract claims for the sale of tangible personal property must be commenced within four (4) years of an alleged breach. 6. Pennsylvania's statute of limitations for contract actions begins to run as soon as the right to institute and maintain a suit arises. Sevast v. Kakorouras, 841 A.2d 1062, 1070 (Pa.Super.2003), citing Weik v. Estate of Brown, A.2d 907, 909 (Pa.Super.2002). 7. An action in default by Plaintiff against Defendant for breach of contract arose in March 2000 when Defendant defaulted on the Note. At the latest, this cause of action arose in May 2000 when Plaintiff sold the Road Tractor at a Public Sale. 8. The statute of limitations for Plaintiff s breach of contract claim against Defendant lapsed in March 2004 or at the latest, in May 2004. 9. In Paragraph 8 of Plaintiff s complaint, Plaintiff alleges that Defendant defaulted in making payments under the Note and owes Plaintiff $51,862.54 plus charges, interest, fees and costs. 10. In its complaint, Plaintiff fails to state the date on which Defendant defaulted on the Note. 11. Plaintiff fails to state how it arrived at the figure owed by Defendant. 12. In Paragraph 10 of Plaintiff s complaint, Plaintiff states that the Road Tractor was sold at a Public Sale for $7,503.50. 13. Plaintiff fails to state the date on which the Road Tractor was sold at a Public Sale. 14. Plaintiff fails to state the fair market value of the Road Tractor at the time of sale. 15. Pursuant to Pennsylvania Civil Procedure Rule 1019(f), Plaintiff must specifically aver times and places in support of its claims. 16. The Pennsylvania Commonwealth has held that the statute of limitations is to be considered in assessing the specificity of a complaint. Therefore, plaintiffs must plead dates, times, and damages with particularity. General State Authority v. Lawrie and Green, 24 Pa.Cmwlth. 407,414,356 A.2d 851,855 (1976). 17. Here, Plaintiff failed to state the date on which Defendant defaulted, how Plaintiff arrived at the amount owed by Defendant, the date on which the Road Tractor was sold at a Public Sale and the fair market value of the Road Tractor at the time of the Public Sale. 18. The Note contained a confession of judgment clause. 19. Plaintiff is an experienced lender. 20. Defendant is a high school graduate with little or no business experience. 21. The Note is a standard, pre-printed form that amounts to an adhesion contract. 22. The terms of this adhesion contract were non-negotiable. 23. Plaintiff created the Note such that the confession of judgment clause was typed in small print located in the middle of the contract. 24. Plaintiff did not make the confession of judgment clause conspicuous and did not set off the clause within the contract. On the contrary, Plaintiff reserved the power to confess judgment upon Defendant by means of a single sentence located in the middle of a paragraph. 25. Plaintiff placed the confession of judgment clause on the reverse side of the contract, where there appeared no blank spaces and nothing for the Defendant to agree to or sign. 26. Pennsylvania courts may refuse to enforce an entire contract, any part of a contract, or limit the application of any part of a contract if they find that the contract or any clause thereof to be unconscionable at the time the contract was entered into. 13 Pa.C.S.A. g 2302. 27. The Pennsylvania Superior Court has held a confession of judgment clause in a contract to be unconscionable as between an inexperienced individual and an experienced business. Germantown Manufacturing Co. v. Rawlinson, 341 PA Super 42,56,491 A.2d 138, 145 (1985). 28. The Pennsylvania Superior Court has found that unconscionable contracts are most unfair when the one party is a professional in the trade and the other party is inexperienced and uneducated in the trade. 29. The Pennsylvania Supreme Court has held where a confession of judgment clause appears on the reverse side of a contract, the clause is not effective and does not bind the parties thereto. Cutler v. Latshaw, 374 Pa. 1,5,97 A.2d 234, 236 (1953). 30. Here, the inconspicuous confession of judgment clause, written in fine print, on the reverse side of the agreement, in a contract of adhesion, was unconscionable as between Plaintiff, an experienced, professional lender and Defendant, an uneducated, inexperienced individual. 31. The Note attempted to give Plaintiff the authority to repossess and sell the Road Tractor in the event that Defendant defaulted on the Note. 32. In its complaint, Plaintiff alleged that Defendant defaulted on the Note. 33. After Defendant's default, Plaintiff repossessed the Road Tractor and sold it at a Public Sale. 34. Plaintiff now seeks damages in the amount of $51 ,862.54. 35. At the Public Sale, Plaintiff accepted the bid of$7,503.50 for the Road Tractor, despite the fact that the Road Tractor was worth far in excess of $7,503.50. 36. The Pennsylvania courts have adopted and enforced the Restatement (Second) of Contracts 9205, which imposes upon each party to a contract a duty of good faith and fair dealing in the contract's performance and enforcement. Stamerro v. Stamerro, 889 A.2d 1251, 1259 (Pa.Super.2005) citing John B. Conomos. Inc. v. Sun Co.. Inc. (R & M), 831 A.2d 696, 705-706 (Pa.Super.2003), appeal denied, 577 Pa. 697, 845 A.2d 818 (2004). 37. Here, Plaintiff breached the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing when Plaintiff sold the Road Tractor at a Public Sale for far less than its fair market value. 38. Plaintiff commenced an identical suit against Defendant in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Index No. 101533/06. 39. In New York, the parties have already filed their pleadings and held discovery. WHEREFORE, Defendant respectfully requests this Honorable Court enter an Order striking or opening the judgment.
