is being entered as a result of a pre-trial conciliation conference held on
Wednesday, January 22, 2003, before conciliator Dorothy Livaditis. The matter is

physical custody of his son. The parties, to their credit, have reached an

There has been no prior Court action involving these parties.
Pursuant to the agreement of the parties, the Court hereby awards
shared legal custody to the parents. Joint legal custody means the right of
both parents to control and to share in making decisions of importance in the life
of their child, including educational, medical, and religious decisions. Both
parents shall be entitled to equal access to a child's school, medical dental and
other important records,
As soon as practical after the receipt by a party, copies of the child's
school schedules, special events notifications, report cards, and similar items
shall be provided to the other party. each shall notify the other party of any
medical, dental, optical and other appointments of a child with health care
providers, sufficiently in advance thereof so that the other party can attend.
Notwithstanding that both parents share legal custody, non-major
decisions involving a child's day to day living shall be made by the parent then
having custody, consistent with the other provisions of this ORDER.
Primary physical custody of the child, as that term is defined in the
Custody Act, shall be with his mother, Bi Ying Lin.

WELFARE OF CHILDREN TO BE CONSIDERED:
717 771 4629 P.13i14
The welfare and convenience of the child shall be the prime
consideration of the parties in any application of the provisions of this Order.
Both parents are directed to listen~carefully and consider the wishes of the child in
addressing the custodial schedule, any changes to the schedule, and any other
parenting issues.
MODIFICATION OF ORDER:
The parties are free to modify the terms of this Order but in order to
do so the Court makes it clear that both parties must be in complete agreement to
any new terms. That means both parties must consent on what the new terms of
the custody arrangement or visitation schedule shall be.
In the event that one or the other does not consent to a change, that
does not mean each follows your awn idea as to what you think the arrangements
should be. The reason this Court Order is set out in detail is so both parties have
it to refer to and to govern your relationship with the child and with each other in
the event of a disagreement.

unusual schedule. In the event that there is a significant change in this schedule
and the parties cannot reach an agreement, the father is reserved the right to file

will advise the mother accordingly and the drop-off time shall be earlier on

at Woodmont Drive, York, York County, Pennsylvania (hereinafter
referred to as `Father').
3. The parties are the natural parents of Kang He, born October 2, 1990.
4. A Stipulated Order for Custody was entered on January 30, 2003, by
the York County Court of Common Pleas at Docket No. 2003-SU-
00076-02C, that granted the parties shared legal custody, Mother
primary physical custody, and Father partial physical custody from

though set forth in full.
8. The November 6, 2003, Order of Court further provides that should a

contact the York County courts to determine whether they relinquish
jurisdiction from the stipulated order of January of 2003.
9. Petitioner has resided in Cumberland County, with the child, since 2003.

WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests This Honorable Court to contact
the York County Court of Common Pleas to assume jurisdiction over the within
custody matter.
COUNT II: PETITION FOR SPECIAL RELIEF
11. Paragraphs one (1) through ten (10) are incorporated herein by reference as
though set forth in full.
12. Petitioner wishes to relocate with her child to Greensboro, North Carolina.
Petitioner would like to relocate as soon as all legal proceedings have
concluded, but prior to the end of the year.
13. In considering Petitioner's request, the Court must consider:
a. whether the planned relocation will substantially improve Petitioner's
quality of life, as well as that of the child;
b. whether Petitioner's motive in wishing to make the move is pure and not
based on whimsical or spiteful reasons; and,
c. whether there is an available, realistic, substitute visitation arrangement
that can be made which will foster an ongoing relationship between the
child and the non-custodial parent.
14. Petitioner believes that relocation to Greensboro, North Carolina will
substantially improve the quality of life for Petitioner and the child for the
following reasons:
a. Mother and her significant other, Carroll Master, have a newborn child
together;
b. Mr. Master has been offered an employment position in North Carolina
that will significantly improve the family's standard of living;
c. Mother would be able to be a stay-at-home mom to both Kang and their
infant child;
d. Kang has been in the primary custody of his mother since the 2003
Order of Court;
e. Kang has stated that should his mother move to North Carolina, he
would certainly desire to move with the family;
f. Father is employed with a Chinese restaurant in York, PA where he
works seven ('7) days per week with extended hours;
g. Father's work schedule does not provide him the opportunity to
adequately care for Kang's day-to-day needs;
h. Father's work schedule does not allow him to appropriately supervise
Kang;
i. Mother's proposed visitation/partial custody schedule would provide
Father with more custodial time than he presently exercises.
15. Petitioner's motives in seeking to relocate are pure and in no way done to
interfere with Respondent's relationship with the child.
16. A realistic substitute visitation schedule to allow Respondent time with the

twenty minutes, and a maximum of three (3) phone calls per week.

residence and telephone number to facilitate communication concerning the

a period in excess of seventy two hours, and for each person or entity which may
provide day care for a child,
ILLNESS OF CHILD:
Emergency decisions regarding the child shall be made by the
parent then having custody. However, in the event of any emergency or serious
illness of a child at any time, any party then having custody of the child shall
immediately communicate with the other party by telephone or any other means
practical, informing the other party of the nature of the illness or emergency, so
the other parent can become involved in the decision making process as soon as
practical .
During such illness, each party shall have the right to visit the child
as often as he or she desires, consistent with the proper medical care of the child.

WELFARE OF CHILDREN TO BE CONSIDERED:
The welfare and convenience of the child shall be the prime
consideration of the parties in any application of the provisions of this Order.
Both parents are directed to listen carefully and consider the wishes of the child in
addressing the custodial schedule, any changes to the schedule, and any other
parenting issues,
MODIFICATION OF ORDER:
The parties are free to modify the terms of this Order but in order to
do so the Court makes it clear that both parties must be in complete agreement to
any new terms. That means bath parties must consent on what the new terms of
the custody arrangement or visitation schedule shall be.
In the event that one or the other does not consent to a change, that
does not mean each follows your own idea as to what you think the arrangements
should be. The reason this Court Order is set out in detail is so both parties have
it to refer to and to govern your relationship with the child and with each other in
the event of a disagreement.
MISCELLANEOUS:
It is noted that the father is currently working an unusual work

schedule from 10:00 a.m. until 10:00 or 11:00 p.m., almost on a daily basis,
except for Mondays. He has agreed to this current Order based on his existing
unusual schedule. In the event that there is a significant change in this schedule
and the parties cannot reach an agreement, the father is reserved the right to file
a petition for modification and have the Caurt reconsider his custody rights.
In the event that the father is able to get off earlier on Sundays, he
will advise the mother accordingly and the drop-off time shall be earlier on
Sundays,
We direct that a copy of this Qrder be provided to both counsel so
they may forward a copy to their respective client.
