OF AUGUST 19. 2002
NOW COMES, Petitioner, Charles W. Shaffer, Jr., by and
through his counsel, Mark A. Mateya, Esquire and avers the
following:
1. Petitioner is Charles W. Shaffer, J"r., who resides at 71
North Middleton Road, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania
17013.
2. Respondent is Wendy M. Shaffer, who resides at 30
Be11aire Park Road, Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania
17013 .
3. On August 19, 2002, the Honorable J. Wesley Oler, Jr.,
entered a custody Order. See attached Exhibit 'A'.
4. Since the entry of said Order, there has been a
significant change in circumstances in that:
a) Petitioner, who is the natural father of the child, has
become the child's primary care giver;
b) Respondent/Mother refuses to shar,e with Petitioner/
Father her phone number or the address in Dillsburg,
Pennsylvania, where she frequently takes the child
during her custodial time.
c) The child spends the vast majorit:y of her time with the
Petitioner;
d) Petitioner has relocated to 71 North Middleton Road,
Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, to be in the
Carlisle School District thus invalidating the reason
to keep the Respondent listed as the primary custodial
parent;
e) The child's best interests will be served by keeping
her with her father, Petitioner herein, as the child
continues to have a very strong relationship with the
father as seen through the child's reactions and
interactions with both father and. mother, and father
will continue to foster a positiv'e relationship with
both himself and the child's moth.er.
5. The best interest of the child will be served by the
Court modifying said Order as follows:
1) Father and Mother shall share legal custody of the
child;

order, which constitutes a qualified domestic relations order for the purposes of amending,
superseding or supplementing this order.
