Robert Elicker, II, Divorce Master Cumberland County Courthouse, 9 North Hanover street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania proceedings held on September 5, 1996, and December 23, 1996 commencing at 9:00 a.m. APPEARANCES: Samuel L. Andes Attorney for Plaintiff LeRoy smigel Attorney for Defendant ~ ~ PROCEDURAL HISTORY A divorce complaint was filed on May 12, 1994, raising grounds for divorce of irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. No economic claims were raised in the complaint. On May 18, 1995, the Defendant wife filed an answer and counterclaim raising the economic claims of equitable distribution, alimony, alimony pendente lite, and counsel fees and expenses. An affidavit under Section 3301(d) was filed by the Plaintiff on February 16, 1996, averring that the parties separated on or about January 29, 1994, a period in excess of two years, although husband later claimed that the parties separated in December 1993. Nevertheless, his affidavit under section 3301(d) states the date of separation about January 29, 1994. Apparently the January date was when the parties actually physically separated and husband left the marital residence. Wife filed a counter-affidavit in response to the affidavit under section 3301(d) indicating that she did not oppose the entry of a divorce decree but that she wished to claim economic relief. Economic relief has been claimed by the filing of the counterclaim on behalf of wife raising the economic issues of equitable distribution, alimony, alimony pendente lite, and counsel fees and expenses. The Master was appointed on January 5, 1996, and after a directive to file pre-trial statements a pre-hearing ~ ~ conference was held on May 6, 1996. At the pre-hearing conference a hearing was scheduled for August 15, 1996, which was rescheduled to September 5, 1996. At that hearing testimony was presented from two accountants regarding the valuation of a partnership. Over objection of counsel for husband, the Master allowed wife additional time to obtain the services of a real estate expert to appraise the real estate in the partnership and a hearing was scheduled for October 1, 1996. That hearing was rescheduled at the request of the attorney for husband and another hearing was set for December 23, 1996. The parties and counsel appeared on December 23, 1996, for the second hearing after which the Master indicated that he would like counsel to file a summary and valuation of marital assets and interests within two weeks. The issue of whether or not testimony would be offered on marital misconduct was left open for future discussion. The Master also requested some updated medical information about wife's health situation and also some updated financial information about wife's earnings. After the close of testimony on December 23, 1996, the Master placed on the record certain remarks which have been transcribed and are attached hereto. The Master indicated that upon receipt of the summaries he would schedule a conference with counsel. Finally, on February 26, 1997, the Master and counsel met. Plaintiff's 2 ~ ~ counsel's summary was received in the mail by the Master the day of the conference, Defendant's counsel's summary was submitted under letter of January 3, 1997, with a slightly revised addition submitted to the Master immediately before the conference. The conference with counsel turned out to be as openly hostile and acrimonious as were the proceedings before the Master on September 5, 1996, and December 23, 1996. Aside from the stipulated facts and numbers, counsel found issues in every aspect of the case (not unusual in the legal playing field) but counsel for husband wanted to have another hearing to present testimony on a $50,000.00 loan/gift from husband's aunt and tangible personal property issues. Counsel for wife stated the record had been closed and he would not appear at another hearing. Neither counsel requested the opportunity to offer testimony on the factor of marital misconduct. A letter had previously been submitted about wife's health situation and some updated income information was provided. Counsel for husband attached an exhibit to his summary of assets setting forth some items of tangible personal property husband wanted possession of. This, as noted, was received the day of the conference. As counsel were leaving, amidst the usual barbs being cast about the room, the Master simply said he would let them know later what he would do. What the Master has decided to do is prepare a 3 ~ ~ report and recommendations from his notes, the exhibits, and the information developed with counsel at the conference on February 26, 1997. The record will not be opened for any additional testimony unless the Master is directed by the Court to do so. Based on the history of this case as the Master has experienced it, one counselor the other will disagree with every finding of the Master giving counsel the impetus to request a transcript and make their arguments again with the transcript in hand before a panel of honorable judges. The Master's report and recommendations follow. STIPULATIONS ENTERED ON THE RECORD ON DECEMBER 23, 1996 MR. ANDES: We have stipulated to five or perhaps six things. 1. We have stipulated that the cash in an escrow account which represents the proceeds from the sale of the marital residence, after the parties made certain withdrawals to which they had both mutually agreed is $75,347.00. 2. We have agreed that Mr. Stewart's individual retirement account with Fidelity Magellan is worth $10,133.00. 3. We have agreed that Mrs. Stewart's individual retirement account with Fidelity Magellan is worth $8,033.00. 4. We have agreed that Mr. Stewart owns a policy of life insurance with Ohio State Life Insurance which has a cash value of $981.00. 5. We have agreed that Mr. Stewart's individual retirement account with Advest Investments has a value of $32,014.00. 4 ~ ~ 6. We have agreed that the parties have divided their automobiles and we are not going to have testimony or contention about values. 7. We stipulate that the date of marriage was August 29, 1964. e. We have stipulated that we will admit into the record the report of Harry Leister on Mrs. stewart's Pennsylvania Employees' Retirement System pension. That gives different values and we will have to have some testimony about that. (Whereupon, Joint Exhibit No. 1 was marked for identification.) 9. We have also stipulated that the appraisals of real estate owned by B.R. William Heirs done by Rod Green of Good News Reality in Indiana, Pennsylvania will be admitted into the record. (Whereupon, Joint Exhibit No. 2 was marked for identification.) 10. Husband purchased during the marriage 2.77% of the total ownership interest in B.R. williams Heirs. Counsel both agree that that 2.77% share is marital property and has been since he purchased it. 11. We also stipulate that husband's 8.33% interest he inherited from Margaret Williams in 1987 is not marital property but the increase in value is. 12. We have agreed that in addition to the properties appraised by Mr. Green as shown on Joint Exhibit No. 2 as being owned by the partnership in 1987 that there were two other properties which the partnership owned. There was a service station at 518 Philadelphia street in Indiana, Pennsylvania, which had a value of $64,000.00 in 1987, and a tract of land containing 104.36 acres in Pine Township, Indiana, Pennsylvania, which had a value in 1987 of $40,000.00. We would like those to be added to the appraised value established by Mr. Green for the real estate owned by B.R. Williams Heirs to arrive at the total value of B.R. Williams Heirs when my client inherited his e.33% interest. 5 ~ ~ FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The parties were married on August 29, 1964. The date of separation was addressed on the record by the parties with wife stating the parties separated on January 29, 1994, when husband left the marital residence. Although this is the date that husband used in his affidavit under section 3301(d) he stated that actually the parties separated about a month before even though they continued to reside in the same residence. The specific date of separation, namely, the end of December 1993 or the end of January 1994 is not particularly important in the final resolution of this case and the valuation of assets. 2. Two children were born of the marriage, both of whom are emancipated. 3. Neither party was previously married. 4. Husband currently resides at 2853 Oakwood Drive, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, where he has resided since June 1996. He is living at that residence with a female friend and has an interest in the property based on his initial investment of $6,500.00. Previously, after the parties physically separated, husband lived with his mother at 2826 Merion Road, Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. 5. Husband is 55 years of age and is employed as a sales manager at the used car lot at Freysinger Pontiac. His income from his employment based on the 1996 end of year pay statement is around $30,500.00 gross. Husband stated he did not have any bonuses in 1996. Husband has a Bachelor's degree from Lycoming College in Business Administration. 6. Husband stated that he has had depression and has been under the care of a physician and taking medication for depression since 1986. He does not have any other health problems. 7. Wife resides at 2007 Daybreak Circle, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in a home which she purchased subsequent to the separation. 8. Wife is 52 years of age and is employed by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Transportation as a secretary. Wife reports a biweekly gross income of $1,086.00 with an annual gross of 6 '1 ",... around $28,000.00. Wife hae two years of college at shippensburg University in elementary education but does not have a college degree. 9. Wife currently receives spousal support in the amount of $86.30 biweekly through an order entered in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. 10. Wife indicated that she has had to undergo a breast examination because of a lump on her breast. The Master had requested a status report and on January 7, 1997, Frank W. Jackson, M.D. submitted a report indicating that her recent exam shows "distortion" and that a fOllow-up examination is recommended in 6 months. 11. Husband's retirement consists of an IRA, a 401(k), and a retirement contribution as noted on the paystub on Plaintiff's Exhibit 16. The 401(k) payments are deducted from his paycheck also. Wife is a participant in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania pension plan. 12. with respect to wife's retirement value, the Master finds that it is likely that wife will continue to work until age 65 (she testified that she has a large mortgage and because of her expenses could not afford to retire before that time) and based on prior experience, she will probably take the refund of contributions. Based on those findings, the Master has valued, based on Mr. Leister's report, the marital value of wife's pension plan at $24,851.00. After taking the refund of contributions plus interest the monthly benefit would be $219.00. 13. In addition to the marital assets previously stipulated to by the parties and counsel and the findings as above stated with respect to the marital value of wife's pension plan, the Master makes the following findings with regard to the remaining marital assets and marital interests: a) Husband's PNC Checking account value is $3,143.00 ($718.00 plus three checks totalling $2,425.00, two of which were dated December 21, 1993, and one dated December 27, 1993, equalling the sum of $3,143.00.) 7 b) c) d) ~ ~ Marital interest in B.R. Williams Heirs (2.77' times $469,148.00) is $12,995.40.1 The nonmarital interest of husband in B.R. Williams Heirs which was an 8.33' interest decreased in value from the date of acquisition in July 1987 to the date of separation so no value is used for that interest in the partnership representing a marital interest in assets. The Vanguard Mutual Fund account and the Advest Investment account were nonmarital accounts. At the date of separation the Vanguard Mutual Fund account showed a decrease in value of $53,065.84 and the Advest Investment account showed an increase in value of $7,330.44. Because both accounts represented nonmarital assets, the Master has offset the decrease in the one account against the increase in the other account and finds that there is no value representing a marital interest in these accounts as of the date of separation. 14. The Master finds that the total value of marital assets and marital interests subject to distribution have a value of $167,497.40. 15. At the time wife's mother's home sold, wife received $3,779.00 which she invested in a Vanguard account. Wife also received an inheritance on June 5, 1993, from her mother's estate in the amount of $9,614.02 which she used toward the purchase of her townhouse and legal fees. The Master finds that these funds are nonmarital. 1. Referring to Joint Exhibit No.2, Mr. Smigel used the number of $365,000.00 as a total appraised value of the real estate in his computation, whereas, Mr. Andes used the sum of $320,000.00 for the value of the real estate. The Master does not know the basis for Mr. Andes' figure but does recall that the Pine Township property (29 acres) was sold in September 1996 and reduced the total appraised value of the real estate for 1996 by $9,000.00 to arrive at a total for the real estate of $356,000.00. The balance of the monies used to make up the total value of the partnership consisted of cash accounts. 8 ~ ~ 16. The sum of $50,000.00 was received from husband's aunt in 1987 for the purpose of allowing husband to purchase an interest in a car dealership. Wife claims the money was a gift to both parties, husband claims that he signed a note on April 13, 1987, promising to pay back the sum to his aunt; however, husband further went on to say that the money would not have to be repaid unless the aunt needed the money. Husband used the money to buy into the car dealership and no money has been repaid to the aunt. The Master finds that that sum of money is not a marital debt which he is going to consider in the equitable distribution computations. 17. Wife had attorney fees with her prior counsel Bogar & Sheely in the amount of $6,000.00 which she testified have been paid. Her current fees with her present counsel are around $30,000.00. The real estate appraisal cost was $3,000.00 which $1,500.00 was raid out of the escrow account and at the time of the hearing $1,500.00 was still owing. 18. No objection has been made by either party in these proceedings to the method and adequacy of service of any of the pleadings in the divorce action nor has either party or counsel objected to the jurisdiction of this Court to act in these proceedings. CONCLUSION OF LAW Grounds for divorce are irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. On February 16, 1996, the Plaintiff filed an affidavit under section 3301(d) averring that the parties have been separated for a period in excess of two years. Wife does not dispute that the separation has been in excess of the statutory requirement of two years; therefore, the divorce can be concluded under Section 3301(d) of the Domestic Relations Code. 9 ~ ~ ANALYSIS OF THE FACTORS AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 3502(a) OF THE DOMESTIC RELATIONS CODE 1. The parties were living together in a marital relationship for approximately 29 1/2 years and have been separated for approximately 3 1/4 years. 2. Neither party was previously married. 3. Husband is 55 years of age and is a sales manager of a used car lot at Freysinger Pontiac. For most of his working life husband has been involved in the automobile business. He has a Bachelor's degree from Lycoming College. His main source of income is from his employment in the amount of approximately $30,500.00 gross per year. Husband is participating in a 401(k) plan, a retirement plan, and has some nonmarital assets with an approximate total value of $100,000.00.2 Husband has been taking medication on and off for depression since 1986. Wife is 52 years of age and is employed as a secretary with the Department of Transportation, Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Her annual gross income is around $28,000.00 per year. She worked for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania during a portion of the time that the parties were married and living together. Wife is vested in the retirement system with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The needs of the parties are met through their income supplemented by assets received in the distribution of the marital interests and assets and from nonmarital interests. 4. Neither party has contributed to the education, training, or increased earning power of the other party. 5. The opportunity of each party for future acquisition of captial assets and income is through earnings and with respect to husband through his interest in the B.R. Williams Heirs partnership. 2. This figure was stated by Plaintiff's attorney at the conference on February 26, 1997, as the estimated value of his client's nonmarital interests. 10 ~ ~ 6. The sources of income of both parties is through earnings from employment. Any medical, retirement, insurance, or other benefits would likewise be derived from employment. 7. Both parties contributed to the acquisition of marital assets and both parties have made contributions toward the preservation of the marital assets as their resources and skills allowed. Husband contributed some nonmarital assets derived from his family for the benefit of the marriage and which were contributed throughout the course of the marriage and used to supplement marital funds. 8. Aside from the property which will be set apart to each of the parties by way of the equitable distribution, wife will have her interest in her retirement plan with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and husband will have his nonmarital assets including his 401(k), retirement, and interest in the partnership, all of which will most likely increase in value, with a total value now of around $100,000.00. 9. The standard of living of the parties established during the marriage was middle-class. 10. The economic circumstances of the parties presently are not significantly different inasmuch as both parties are living on their incomes and do not have at the present time sufficient income to substantially increase their capital assets. Wife's income is around $2,500.00 per year less than husband's income and she has had her income supplemented by the receipt of spousal support in the amount of $86.30 every two weeks. The Master has not considered any tax ramifications with respect to the division of property herein. 11. Neither party is serving as the custodian of any dependent minor children. DISCUSSION EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION Based on the stipulations of the parties, the facts found by the Master, and the analysis of the factors under 11 ~ ~ section 3502(a) of the Domestic Relations Code, the Master believes that the marital assets should be distribution 55' to wife and 45' to husband. The Master has considered the difference in income especially taking into account the fact that wife's spousal support will terminate. Further, wife's pension benefits at the time of retirement at age 65, after the refund of contributions plus interest have been withdrawn, will be around $219.00 monthly. Even if wife did not take a refund of contributions plus interest, her monthly pension benefit at age 65 would be $390.00. This is not a substantial amount of money for wife to live on even with the addition of social security and, therefore, the Master is of the opinion that the assets received by wife in this distribution can be utilized by her toward planning for and supplementing her retirement. Husband, on the other hand, does have nonmarital asset interests which will continue to accrue to his benefit. He also has the benefit of having the opportunity to share living expenses with a friend who has put a substantial amount of money into a home which the parties are sharing and from which husband derives a significant benefit. Wife is totally dependent on her own resources for her support and maintenance. The total value of the marital assets and marital interests is $167,497.40. Applying a 55/45 distribution, husband is entitled to receive assets having a value of 12 " ~ $75,373.83 and wife is entitled to receive assets having a value of $92,123.57. MARITAL ASSETS AND VALUES ASSIGNED TO HUSBAND Fidelity Magellan IRA Ohio State Life Insurance cash value $ 10,133.00 Advest Investment IRA $ 981. 00 $ 32,014.00 $ 3,143.00 PNC checking account Marital interest in B.R. Williams Heirs TOTAL $ 12,995.40 $ 16.107.43 $ 75,373.83 Cash in escrow account MARITAL ASSETS AND VALUES ASSIGNED TO WIFE Fidelity Magellan IRA $ 8,033.00 Wife's Commonwealth of Pennsylvania pension $ 24,851. 00 Cash in escrow account $ 59.239.57 TOTAL $ 92,123.57 Any interest earned on the escrow account from the date of the value used in these proceedings shall be distributed 55\ to wife and 45\ to husband. Although the Master has made no findings with respect to tangible personal property, the Master did note that attached to husband's valuation and distribution of assets 13 ~ ~ summary was a schedule of personal property which husband requested he be entitled to receive from the marital home (Exhibit A). The Master directs that husband be entitled to receive one set of the children's photographs and any items on that exhibit which were either given to husband or the parties by husband's family. The parties will sign all titles and documents necessary to transfer ownership of assets assigned to each of the parties herein as provided in the distribution of assets set forth above. All transfers and distribution of assets as provided herein shall occur within thirty (30) days of a final order in these proceedings. ANALYSIS OF THE FACTORS AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 3701(b) OF THE DOMESTIC RELATIONS CODE When the factors of the section 3502(a) analysis overlap with the factors in a section 3701(b) analysis, the analysis under Section 3502(a) is incorporated herein. Additional factors to be considered in the section 3701(b) analysis in determining the nature, amount, duration, and manner of payment of alimony are as follows: 4. Wife has received an inheritance from her mother's estate. Husband received inheritances during the course of the marriage which were discussed and accounted for in these proceedings in determining marital and 14 ~ ~ nonmarial interests. Any expectancies or inheritances of either of the parties is not otherwise considered as being too speculative. 11. Neither party brought any substantial assets to the marriage. 12. Although wife was a housewife and worked during part of the marriage, no specific contribution has been considered with respect to wife as a homemaker. 13. The needs of both parties are met through their respective employment and incomes. 14. Marital misconduct by either of the parties has not been considered by the Master. 15. No tax ramifications of an alimony award have been considered by the Master. 16. Wife has sufficient property based on the assets which she has obtained since separation, her distribution of assets herein, and her earnings to provide for her reasonable needs. 17. Wife is capable of self-support through employment. DISCUSSION ALIMONY Based on the findings of fact and the analysis of the factors under section 3701(b) of the Domestic Relations Code, the Master does not believe that alimony is necessary for wife's continued maintenance and support. The threshold which must be passed in order to recommend alimony is that the Court must determine that alimony is necessary. Under the circumstances of this case, as discussed in the findings of fact and analysis of the factors, and considering the distribution of assets that wife is 15 ~ ~ receiving herein, the Master does not believe that alimony is necessary and further believes that she is capable of supporting herself through the sources of income and utilization of assets available to her. RECOMMENDATION ALIMONY Wife's claim for alimony is denied. DISCUSSION COUNSEL FEES AND EXPENSES Wife has raised a claim for counsel fees and expenses and has previously paid to counsel $6,000.00 and owes present counsel in excess of $30,000.00. Some of the costs in these proceedings for the appraisal have been taken from the escrow account and, therefore, borne by both partiee. Using a guideline of need of wife and the ability to pay by husband, the Master does not believe that an award of counsel fees and expenses is warranted. Wife has sufficient assets from her distribution to make arrangements for payment of her counsel fees; husband, on the other hand, has had to incur his own fees and does not have the ability to pay on account of wife's fees considering his income and asset situation. Arguably even if 16 -~ ,.... STEWART VS. STEWART REMARKS AT THE END OF HEARING ON MONDAY, DECEMBER 23, 1996 THE MASTER: I'll ask counsel then to get baok to me within two weeks and we will try to have a conference with your sheets and your valuations. If you can before t.hat, provide a copy of the statement of her income, and if you know the results of the test, I would also like that to be shared with us. MR. SMIGEL: Sure. MR. ANDES: Do you t'est? MR. SMIGEL: Yes. MR. ANDES: When we consider the matter of marital conduct or misconduct, I want to consider, with my client, the possibility of rebuttal. THE MASTER: Oh, certainly. MR. ANDES: okay. THE MASTER: I understand that. I mean, I haven't decided yet what I am going to do on that and I want to disouss that with the two of you when you come in with your summaries and we will talk about that. MR. ANDES: Fine. THE MASTER: I don't think we need to got into that and get all worked up here right now. MR. ANDES: okay.

Sheely dated January 5, 1996, the full-time Master has been appointed in the above referenced divorce proceedings. A divorce complaint was filed on May 12, 1994, raising grounds for divorce of irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. No economic claims were raised in the complaint. On May 18, 1995, the Defendant filed an answer and counterclaim in response to the complaint. The counterclaim raised the economic issues of equitable distribution, alimony, alimony pendente lite, and counsel fees and eKpenses. I assume that grounds for divorce are not at issue. Based on that assumption, I am directing each counsel in accordance with P.R.C.P. 1920.33(b) to file a pre-trial statement on or before Monday, February 12, 1996. upon receipt of the pre-trial statements I will immediately schedule a vs. IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF I CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA I I NO. 94 - 2553 ALEXANDER H. STEWART, plaintiff NANCY S. STEWART, Defendant III DIVORCE REI Pre-Hearing Conference Memorandum DATE: Monday, May 6, 1996 Present for the Plaintiff, Alexander H. Stewart, was attorney Samuel L. Andes, and present for the Defendant, Nancy S. Stewart, was attorney Ann V. Levin and attorney LeRoy smigel. Attorney Levin is an associate with Mr. smigel's office. A divorce complaint was filed on May 12, 1994, raising grounds for divorce of irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. No economic were raised in the complaint. On May 18, 1995, the Defendant filed an answer and counterclaim. In the counterclaim the Defendant raised the economic claims of equitable distribution, alimony, alimony pendente lite, and counsel fees and expenses. An affidavit under Section 3301(d) was filed by the Plaintiff on February 16, 1996, averring that the parties separated on or about January 29, 1994, a period of at least two years. On March 14, 1996, the Defendant filed a counter-affidavit indicating that she did not oppose the entry of a decree but wished to claim economic relief. The economic claims had been previOUSly raised on the Defendant's behalf in the action. Counsel are going to determine whether they are going to file affidavits of consent under Section 3301(c) or let the divorce proceed under Section 3301(d) based on the filed affidavit averring separation in excess of two years. with respect to the alimony claim, wife's counsel is not certain as to whether or not she will raise any issues with respect to marital misconduct as that factor relates to the alimony claim. Counsel are directed to advise the Master and opposing counsel within two (2) weeks of today's date whether marital misconduct is going to be an issue and if it is, the hearing scheduled in this case will be devoted to taking testimony on the marital misconduct issue. Counsel are directed to provide a list of witnesses who will be testifying on that issue within a month of the date of the hearing. The list of witnesses will be provided by each counsel to opposing counsel. Mr. Andes has requested that Mr. smigel provide a statement generally of what misconduct is going to be alleged so Mr. Andes will have an opportunity to direct hip response to the allegations to be made by Defendant. ouch statement should be provided within the two (2) week time frame if Mr. smigel and Ms. Levin decide to proceed on the issue of marital misconduct. Husband is 54 years of age and resides at 2826 Merion Road, Camp Hill, pennsylvania, with his mother. He is a college graduate and presently is employed as a new car salesperson with Freysinger pontiac. His gross annual income was reported at $28,411.00. He has additional income from dividends of around $2,600.00 annually. He reported net income for 1995 of $23,672.00. Husband is currently covered under wife's hospital/medical insurance plan through her employment. Upon the entry of a divorce decree he will be entitled to COBRA benefits and Mr. Smigel is requested to provide to Mr. Andes the cost of those benefits. Also Mr. Andes is going to inquire of his client as to whether or not benefits are available through husband's employment at Freysinger Pontiac and the cost of those benefits. Husband has not raised any health issues. Wife is 51 years of age and resides at 2007 Daybreak circle, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, where she lives alone. She attended Shippensburg University and was working toward a degree in elementary education but did not attain a degree, having married and devoted her time to the raising of the children. However, she is employed at the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania currently as a secretary for the Bureau of Environmental Quality. Mr. Andes believes that she has worked continuously [or the commonwealth for ten years although Mr. smigel believes there may have been a break in employment. Mr. smigel is going to obtain the employment history of wife with respect to her employment with the commonwealth. Wife is currently receiving $89.00 per month as spousal support from husband through the cumberland county Domestic Relations Office. She has not raised any health issues. Wife is a participant in a pension with the commonwealth of Pennsylvania and counsel are going to have that pension valued. Mr. Smigel will share the information regarding her employment history and any information needed for the valuation of the pension to Mr. Andes within two (2) weeks. The parties sold their marital home in Indiana, Pennsylvania, and currently the proceeds from the sale of that home are escrowed with Commerce Bank and they total around $80,000.00. From the original proceeds, which at one point were around $88,000.00, counsel and the parties agreed to withdraw $5,000.00 for each party from the fund. The monies were withdrawn without any prejudice to either party in terms of the final percentage of equitable distribution. Husband is a partner in a partnership known as B.R. williams Heirs. 11.1\ of the partnership is designated as husband's interest and we have agreed that 2.77\ of the total value of the partnership is marital, and for purposes of equitable distribution an 8.33\ interest is the portion to be designated as marital representing an increase in value of that interest from 1987 to 1994. A major difficulty that counsel are experiencing is trying to value the respective percentages in the partnership representing marital interests and Mr. Andes has provided an appraisal and Mr. smigel has deposed an accountant; however, there is a question as to whether or not the information currently available is representative of the true value of the marital interest. Therefore, Mr. smigel and Mr. Andes can attempt to arrive at some method in trying to value the partnership value and that may be through an appraisal of the property or as Mr. Smigel has suggested (he has arranged for a valuation of the income producing parts of the partnership) using an income approach. In any event, counsel are going to have to be prepared either to present evidence on the value or come to some stipulated amount representing value; otherwise, the Master will be left with guesswork, which is not appropriate for the Master to make a valuation for purposes of the equitable distribution. Counsel are to advise each other about any reports and experts thirty (30) days prior to the hearing to be scheduled. The Ohio state life insurance policy listed on the pre-trial statement has been valued at $422.00 for marital purposes. Counsel should determine whether or not they have sufficient information on that value to stipulate that $422.00 or some other number which they developed is the marital value. Husband had a checking account at PNC and counsel for wife has listed the value of that account at $2,685.00 at time of separation. Mr. Andes has inquired as to whether or not wife also had a Checking account at time of separation and counsel for wife is going to determine if she did have an account and if so what the balance of that account was. Husband has an IRA with Advest and Fidelity Mutual. Wife cashed in her IRA with Fidelity Mutual and Vanguard Mutual. Counsel should provide current statements or Closing statements for those IRA accounts to be used for the hearing for the purposes of distribution. with respect to the National Bank of the commonwealth account Mr. Andes indicated that he believes that fund was combined into the Advest IRA. Husband has listed on his nonmarital schedule in his pre-trial statement an Advest account, subtitled as cash account, money market account, and priced securities account. Mr. smigel has indicated that he is not prepared to agree that the accounts are nonmarital. Likewise, husband has listed 202 shares of stock in Westinghouse Electric corporation as nonmarital. Mr. smigel needs to further review whether or not he can agree with the characterization of that stock as nonmarital. Listed on Mr. Andes pre-trial statement under the nonmarital schedule is a Vanguard mutual fund - Prime portfolio fund and Equity Income fund. Those funds were in wife's name and may be nonmarital; however, Mr. Andes has requested information from wife's counsel showing how the funds were acquired and the current status of the funds. with respect to wife's Advest stock account, there is no dispute that that fund was nonmarital, was wife's fund, and that she used the proceeds from that fund for personal expenses. counsel for wife is requested to provide what was in the account at the time it was liquidated. Mr. smigel lists on his pre-trial statement, marital property, a certificate of deposit with no specific information about the certificate of deposit as to the bank involved but does show a value of $6,346.00 as of April 12, 1994. Mr. Andes has requested information and verification of the existence of the certificate of deposit as he is not aware apparently of the certificate of deposit since he has not included that in his statement of assets. The parties distributed the household tangible personal property and no values are going to be used for purposes of distribution. Wife has a 1988 Nissan Stanza automobile and husband has a 1987 Nissan Stanza automobile. If counsel want to include values for purposes of distribution, they can have the vehicles appraised. The parties are the natural parents of two emancipated sons. . . THE MASTER: Today is Monday, December 23, 1996. This is a second day for a Master's hearing in the above referenced case. Present in the hearing room are the Plaintiff, Alexander H. Stewsrt, and his counsel Samuel L. Andes, and the Defendant, Nancy S. Stewart, and her counsel LeRoy smigel and Ann Levin. At the hearing on September 5, 1996, the Master put on the record comments prior to the hearing and comments after the hearing and those comments were transcribed and provided to counsel and the parties. The Master understands that the grounds for divorce are going to be irretrievable breakdown of the marriage and counsel are going use the 3301(d) section to conclude the divorce. No affidavits of consent have been filed. The economic issues remaining are equitable distribution, alimony, and counsel fees and expenses. The parties, along with counsel, have attempted this morning to arrive at certain stipulations regarding identification of assets and values of assets and Mr. Andes has indicated that he is going to place those stipulations on the record after which we will begin with the testimony of the Plaintiff. Mr. Andes. MR. ANDES: We have stipulated to five or perhaps six things. . 1. We have stipulated that the cash in an escrow account which represents the proceeds from tho sale of the marital residence, after the parties made certain withdrawals to which they had both mutually agreed is $75,347.00. 2. We have agreed that Mr. stewart's individual retirement account with Fidelity Magellan is worth $10,133.00. 3. We have agreed that Mrs. stewart's individual retirement account with Fidelity Magellan is worth $8,033.00. 4. We have agreed that Mr. stewart owns a policy of life insurance with Ohio state Life Insurance which has a cash value of $981.00. 5. We have agreed that Mr. stewart's individual retirement account with Advest Investments has a value of $32,014.00. 6. We have agreed that the parties have divided their automobiles and we are not going to have testimony or contention about values. 7. We stipulate that the date of marriage was August 29, 1964. 8. We have stipulated that we will admit into the record the report of Harry Leister on Mrs. stewart's Pennsylvania Employees' Retirement system pension. That gives different values and we will have to have some testimony about that. (Whereupon, Joint Exhibit No. 1 was marked for identification.) 9. We have also stipulated that the appraisals of real estate owned by B.R. William Heirs done by Rod Green of Good News Reality in Indiana, Pennsylvania will be admitted into the record. (Whereupon, Joint Exhibit No. 2 was marked for identification.) 10. Husband purchased during the marriage 2.77' of the total ownership interest in B.R. Williams Heirs. Counsel both agree that that 2.77' share is marital . property and has been since he purchased it. 11. We also stipulate that husband's 8.33' interest he inherited trom Margaret Williams in 1987 is not marital property but the increase in value is. 12. We have agreed that in addition to the properties appraised by Mr. Green as shown on Joint Exhibit No. 2 as being owned by the partnership in 1987 that there were two other properties which the partnership owned. There was a service station at 518 Philadelphia street in Indiana, Pennsylvania, which had a value of $64,000.00 in 1987, and a tract ot land containing 104.36 acres in Pine Township, Indiana, Pennsylvania, which had a value in 1987 of $40,000.00. We would like those to be added to the appraised value established by Mr. Green for the real estate owned by B.R. Williams Heirs to arrive at the total value of B.R. Williams Heirs when my client inherited his 8.33\ interest. '. ALEXANDER H. STEWART, Plaintiff IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA v. NO. 94 - 2553 NANCY S. STEWART, Defendant IN DIVORCE REMARKS OF MASTER PRIOR TO HEARING Today is Thursday, September 5, 1996. This is the date set for a Master's hearing. Present is the Plaintiff, Alexander H. stewart and his counsel Samuel L. Andes, and the Defendant, Nancy S. Stewart and her counsel Leroy smigel and Ann Levin. This action was initiated with the divorce complaint being filed on May 12, 1994, raising grounds for divorce of irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. An affidavit under section 3301(d) was filed by the Plaintiff on February 16, 1996, averring that the parties separated on or about January 29, 1994, a period of at least two years. The Master understands that the parties are going to proceed to conclude the divorce under section 3301(d) inasmuch as no affidavits of consent have been filed under section 3301(c) of the Domestic Relations Code. The economic issues raised by the Defendant in a counterclaim are equitable distribution, alimony, alimony pendente lite, and counsel fees and expenses. Prior to beginning the hearing this morning, counsel and the Master have had a discussion regarding the issue of whether or not we are able to proceed because certain evidence is not available today and certain material allegedly has been provided to counsel for Defendant immediately prior to the hearing, and he claims he has not had sufficient opportunity to review the material. The issue regarding evidence that is not available involves the request by the Defendant to have a real estate appraisal of the property involved in a partnership known as B & R Williams Heirs. The appraiser apparently has not been able to have his work co~pleted by today's date, although counsel may have come to tenative agreement regarding the payment of the fees of the appraiser. Mr. Andes has a valuation of the partnership provided by an accountant with certain data which has resulted in an opinion as to value. Mr. Smigel has an accountant who has disputed the methodology used by the accountant for the Plaintiff. The MasteL' is going to hear the testimony of both accountants regarding the method used to obtain a value for the partnership and then will make a decision as to whether or not we need to proceed with the real estate appraisal. Also, the Master is going to allow both counsel an opportunity on the record to make any objections they want to make regarding evidence that is not available and has been provided through documents. Each counsel can present his point of view regarding the need to have additional time or not have additional time to proceed with this caoe. The Master has been advised that aside from the valuation of the partnership and some dispute about some assets as marital or non-marital, most of the other assets are identified, and perhaps the value of those assets can be stipulated to, but the Master, however, has not been apprised as to whether or not counsel have come to any agreement with respect to the assets not in dispute which have been identified, and the value of those assets. In any event, the Master would suggest that counsel attempt to arrive at some stipulation as to non-disputed assets. Mr. Smigel has requested that he be given additional time to have the appraisal completed and review the material which he claims Mr. Andes provided to him this morning, which involves certain accounts of the parties. Mr. Andes' opinion, on the contrary, is that Mr. Smigel has had an opportunity to review the documents previously, and has had them previously. The Master is going to allow each counsel, without interruption, to present the current status of the case and make appropriate requests to the Master as to whether or not we are in a position to proceed or not to proceed today. The Master will make a final decision after hearing the testimony of the two accountants, which will be at 1:00 p.m. today. REMARKS OF MASTER FOLLO\~ING TESTIMONY OF ACCOUNTANTS I have concern as I have concern in other cases that counsel and the parties come in and have last minute kinds of discovery and documents that haven't been reviewed or reports that haven't been prepared. I am not going to comment nor do I really have an opinion as to why this case has developed to this point today where we have reports that aren't complete or whether or not Mr. Smigel has had certain documents prior to today. I don't know all of the facts as to the discovery that's been going on, requested and provided here. I do note that Mr. Sheridan was recently employed to review a report from Mr. Wire done in May of 1995. I can only assume that the reason it took so long to make any contact with another professional was, perhaps, and this is simply an assumption on my part, that there weren't any financial means to go forward on behalf of the Defendant. I don't know why it took so long to get Mr. Wire's report reviewed. However, my primary concern at this point is to go beyond the dispute that the attorneys have regarding those discovery issues and be more concerned about protecting the interest of the parties. I think that I have to give the parties an oppourtunity to properly value this asset. I have to say that I don't think that Mr. Wire's approach was convincing to me, and if the Plaintiff went ahead today and simply provided that approach, I am not sure that I would have been convinced that I should utilize those numbers in establishing a value for this asset. I am also concerned, however, that a real estate appraisal may be later on objected to because we didn't have an oil or mineral expert or coal expert or timber expert. At some point, however, the parties are going to have to get control of the situation and say, "We can only go so far. We are only going to spend so much money." I~e can spend more money than the partnership value is worth, and I am concerned about that also. It is not productive financially to spend money to value an asset when you spend all of your money valuing the asset. But I do think that because this partnership is a real estate partnership, essentially, although there have been some notations about some cash assets, nevertheless, the primary funding of this partnership is real estate, and the real estate needs to be appraised. I think that we need to go to the real estate approach, and I am, as I said, of the opinion that although Mr. Wire is a very fine professional person and C.P.A., but by his own admission, this is not an opinion based on the value of the real estate utilizing an appraisal, it is simply his best available opinion based on estimates that he has obtained from other people and using his factor which he has arrived at in disussion with other experts. I realize that there is a problem with the cost. I do not have the authority to direct that moneys be withdrawn from an escrow account. I am recommending that the moneys be taken from the escrow account to fund the costs of a real estate appraisal. And if the parties can't agree to do that, then counsel can file a petition with the court, let the Court decide whether or not any of the funds from the escrow account are to be utilized. My recommendation, however, does not include a recommendation to go out and hire timber experts and oil experts and coal experts. That's something beyond what I am suggesting counsel need to do. After the real estate has been appraised, I would expect that counsel utilize some discretion here in trying to use those vaulues without getting into more expert opinions in order to cut the costs and to try to come to some reasonable adjustment with what the partnership is worth.

Williams Heirs, general partnership'. Our review was made for the purpose of fixing estimated value of Mr. Stewart's Interest In the partnership at two specific dates. December 31, 1987 and December 31, 1993. B.R.

Accordingly, assets of the partnership consist, exclusively, of real property and cash.

Although certain royalty earnings are reflected upon Bnnunl pnrtnershill income tax/information returns <Forms 1066 and P A66), I am advised by Mr. Stewnrt such earnings are included for convenience purposes only. Total partnership royalties reported over the past five (6) to seven (7) years have averaged approximately $2,000 per annum and are thus a minor, if not neglibrible, portion of partnership earnings. Accordingly, we have not considered royalty carnings or related value uf underlying mineral righte in determining value of Mr. Stewmt's interest in the partnership. Mr. Stewart acquired his interest in the partnership at upprOldmately December 31, 1987. Allocation of equity in purtnership ussets at acquisitiun and through the Ill'ceent time may be summarized na follows: Alexunder H. Stewurt, III Richurd W. Stewurt June M.

Stewart Dear Lee: In connection with the above proceedings, you asked me to evaluate the valuation letter of May 16, 1995 by Bill Wire, CPA, with respect to Mr, Stewart's interests in a partnership known as B.R. Williams Heirs. In this letter Mr, Wire attempts to ascertain fair market value of the underlying assets at December 31, 1993 by applying an appreci- ation factor (CPI) on an annual basis multiplied times what he indicates is a December 31, 1987 arms-length negotiated value. The first problem I have with this approach is that I have no way of verifying whether, in fact, the December 31, 1987 values are fair market value and whether the negotiations between retiring and continuing partners were truly at arms length. Furthermore, I do not know if there were any payments outRirlA of the p"lrt:np.rship that would have been paid to the retiring partners, Nonetheless, assuming that the December 31, 1987 values do reflect fair market value, although Bill's approach might give one an "estimate" of value, it certainly cannot be relied upon to determine fair market value at December 31, 1993. The Consumer Price Index factor chosen by Mr, Wire was 2%, He applied this factor against the 1987 value in determine the value at December 31,1993. The Consumer Price Index is made up of vari- ous components, one of those components being the cost of housing. Since some of the property is unimproved property, using a CPI index to determine current value is not supportable. The factor chosen (2%) reflects the average of all goods and services and not necessarily the increased costs associated with land values, Whether the factor chosen was 2% or even 10%, neither is support- able because the approach is flawed, ..---. ....URilii. " ~,..~.,., I '. -..-. '. .:. ;..."....: ~,..." 'S"f . " I LeRoy Smigel, Esquire August 23, 1996 Page 2 The supply versus the demand has a greater impact on the fair mal- ket value of land than does the consumer price index. For example, the fair market value of vacant land on the Carlisle Pike in Cum- berland County has increased significantly greater than the CPI, This increase in price is caused by a constant or increasing demand with a dwindling supply, Another problem I have with Mr. Wire's evaluation is that he indi- cates that royalties averaged approximately $2,000 per annum and were "thus a minor factor" and were, therefore, not considered with respect to the ~alue of the land. I disagree with Bill on his con- clusion that royalties are not a material factor in that the job project report that was forwarded to me shows royalties for the year 1995 in the amount of $7,306, which is approximately 20% of the rental income derived from other properties, Accordingly, I would believe that royalties (as well as the underlying minerals) are a material factor in the overall valuation. As you well know, fair market value is def ined as the price that an ownership interest will transfer hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, both being aware of all relevant facts and neither being under compulsion to buy or sell. Accordingly it is my opinion that although Mr. Wire's valuation is a legitimate attempt to produce an estimate of value, it cannot be relied upon to establish fair market value of the assets involved. The only way to establish fair market value is to have a competent real estate appraiser appraise the properties using a cost, com- parable sales, and an income approach. Furthermore, for those property that have minerals associated with the land, that element of value should be separately valued by an expert in that area. I know that this letter will get you no closer to establishing value in your attempt t.o reach equitable distribution, but I wanted to indicate to you that you should not proceed forward based on a valuation that simply applies a Consumer Price Index against a 1987 value, which at this point has not been supported either. If you have any questions regarding the conclusions reached in this letter, please do not hesitate to give me a call.

AI you are aware, marital misconduct is only one of 14 factors considered in determining whether an award of alimony is appropriate. If the issue is raised, the testimony will be very brief and we believe can be handled within the context of a hearing on equitable distribution. I do not intend to bring any witnesses but will address questions individually to both parties. In regard to moving forward with the divorce, we are agreeable to proceeding under Section 3301(d). Therefore, the exi8ting spousal support order will have to be converted to an alimony pendente lite order. Please be advised that a correction needs to be made as to Mrs. stewart's employment. She is still employed with the Department of Transportation but with the Operations Review Group. The additional information which we are to exchange with Mr. Andes is being compiled and will be forwarded to him shortly. We anticipate that Mr. Andes will be forwarding the information we need as well in a short period of time. Thank you for your attention to this matter. veri trul~our~, ~~~ 4::J Ann V.

Plaintiff is Alexander H. stewart who filed a Complaint for Divorce on or about May 4, 1994 seeking a divorce under S3301(c) or (d) of the Divorce Code. 2. Defendant is Nancy S. stewart who filed an Answer to the Divorce Complaint on or about May 19/ 1994, seeking alimony, alimony pendente lite, counsel fees, costs and expenses and equitable distribution. 4005, 3. In accordance with Pa. R.C.P. 1920.22(b) and Pa. R.C.P. Defendant's attorney served upon Plaintiff's attorney Interrogatories seeking the appropriate financial information deemed necessary to resolve the above claims. Service of said Interrogatories was made on Defendant's counsel on June 16/ 1995. 4. Defendant filed a Motion for LeaVe to Take Discovery on May 25, 1995. A hearing on this Motion was held on August 3, 1995 before the Honorable Judge Hess. 5. As a result of this hearing, Plaintiff was ordered to produce documents and answer the outstanding Interrogatories. At the time of the hearing, the Interrogatories were almost thirty (30) days overdue. Plaintiff never objected to the Interrogatories and the Court did not limit the number of Interrogatories to be answered. 6. Plaintiff filed Answers to Interrogatories on August 29, 1995. These Answers are incomplete to the extent that Plaintiff failed to answer Intorrogatories 10 and 11. Plaintiff should not be permitted to raise objections at this point in time. WHEREFORE, Defendant requests the Court to enter an Order under Pa. R.C.P. 4019: A. Directing Plaintiff to answer Interrogatories 10 and 11 within ten (10) days of the Order of this Court and to produce all information requested in the interrogatories so that Defendant's accountant may review the same. B. Refusing to allow Plaintiff, as a disobedient party, to support or oppose designated claims or defenses and prohibiting him from introducing into - 2 - evidence designated documents or testimony under Pa. R.C.P. 4019(0) (2). c. ordering Plaintiff to pay Defendant the reasonable expenses/ including attorney's fees incurred in obtaining the Order of compliance and Order of Sanctions, in accordance with Pa.

Defendant repeats and realleges the averments of paragraphs 1 through 6 which are incorporated by reference herein. B. Discovery is required to determine the nature and value of the marital assets in this case. 9. Defendant has made repeated requests of Plaintiff for information. Plaintiff's refusal to answer certain Interrogatories is evidence of Plaintiff's unwillingness to cooperate in the open exchange of information in this case. 10. It is alleged that if Defendant were permitted to take depositions of Plaintiff and other third parties, information could be more easily obtained and Defendant would be better equipped in preparing her case. - 3 - 10.

ALEXANDER H. STEWART, ) IN THE COURT OF COMMON Plaintiff ) PLEAS OF CUMBERLAND ) COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA vs ) ) NO. 94-2553 CIVIL TERM NANCY S. STEWART, ) Defendant ) CIVIL ACTION - LAW ) IN DIVORCE PLAINTIFF'S ANSWER TO DEFBNDANT'S MOTION FOR LEAVE TO TAKE DISCOVERY AND NOW comes the above-named Plaintiff, by his attorneys, Andes, Vaughn & Bangs, and makes the following answer to Defendant's Motion to Take Discovery: 1. Admi t ted . 2. Plaintiff denies that the parties own "substantial assets" but acknowledges that there are marital assets with which the parties must deal in the divorce proceeding. 3. Plaintiff denies that discovery is required, at least at this time, to determine the nature and value of the marital property. The averments set out in Plaintiff's New Matter are incorporated herein by reference. 4. Admitted. By way of further answer, however, Plaintiff incorporates herein the averments set out in his New Matter. 5. Denied for the reasons set out in Plaintiff's New Matter. 6. Plaintiff denies that additional discovery is required at this time for the reasons set out in his New Matter which is incorporated herein by reference. 7. Denied. The averments set out in Plaintiff's New Matter are incorporated herein by reference. 8. Denied. Defendant is employed, enjoys earnings almost as great as that of Plaintiff, and has significant assets within her unilateral control. By way of further answer, Plaintiff incorporates herein the averments set out in his New Matter. 9. Denied. Plaintiff does not have unlimited means and should not be compelled to pay expenses for unnecessary or unreasonable discovery. The averments set out in Plaintiff's New Matter are incorporated herein by reference. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff moves this Court to dismiss Plaintiff's Motion for Leave to Take Discovery. NEW MATTER 10. Defendant's Motion for Leave to Take Discovery is premature at this time for the following reasons: A. Defendant has failed to exhaust, or even pursue, the remedies available to her for discovery under the Pennsylvania Rules of Civil Procedure. B. The grounds for divorce have not yet accrued and the parties will not be able to determine and 2 litigate the economic claims in the case until those grounds have accrued. ll. Requiring the Plaintiff to provide the discovery demanded by Defendant will waste Plaintiff's time, effort, and money, since all of that work will have to be duplicated again when the grounds for divorce have accrued and the parties prepare the case for negotiation or litigation. 12. Most of the discovery sought by the Defendant is unnecessary, for the following reasons: A. Most of the assets owned by the parties are bank accounts, investment accounts, and other assets that generate monthly statements. Calculating the marital value of those assets, even the ones that are non-marital in some part, does not require depositions or other complex discovery. B. One marital asset is the Plaintiff's interest in a partnership he owns with members of his extended family. That partnership owns real estate and, if the asset is to be valued, its value cannot be determined by the production of documents or the depositions of individuals, but will require formal appraisal of the real estate assets owned by the partnership. The discovery sought by Defendant will not produce information helpful to the preparation of this case for negotiation or 3 settlement and will simply serve to waste the parties' time and money. 13. Defendant's request for an award of counsel fees and expenses at this time is barred by an agreement reached by the parties in December of 1994, in which the parties agreed to withdraw a total of $lO/OOO.OO from an escrow account being held by their attorneys to pay such costs. The parties agreed there would be no further distribution from that escrow account for the payment of costs and fees. Attached hereto and marked as Exhibit "A" is a copy of the agreement signed by the parties at the time the withdrawal was made from the escrow account. 14. It is unfair to expect Plaintiff to advance his own funds to pay the discovery and other costs in this litigation. The parties' income is substantially equal. There are sufficient marital assets available for distribution to each party that they can afford to pay their own share of the costs when this case is ultimately heard and decided. As a result, Plaintiff is no better able to pay the costs of litigation and discovery than is the Defendant, who seeks such broadened and extensive discovery. l5. Plaintiff has made no effort to conceal the assets of the parties or his own assets or to deprive Defendant and her counsel of information regarding those assets. To the contrary, Plaintiff and his counsel have provided extensive information to 4 ~ . :IC 0._ ~ N >. .. :~I': , .\ \I; ~ . C, '.1'" . ~\ .~.

ALEXANDER H. STEWART, PLAINTIFF v. IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA NO. 94-2553 CIVIL TERM NANCY S. STEWART, DEFENDANT CIVIL ACTION - DIVORCE DEFENDANT'S ANSWER TO PLAINTIFF'S NEW MA'ITER AND NOW, comes the Defendant/Petitioner, Nancy S. Stewart, by and through her attorneys, smigel, Anderson & Sacks, and answers as follows: 1. Defendant hereby incorporates her Motion for Leave to Take Discovery as if more fully set forth herein. 10. Denied. A. Defendant has propounded a set of Interrogatories upon the Plaintiff on or about June 16, 1995. Informal requests for discovery have been on-going for several months to no avail. Information received from Plaintiff is incomplete and inadequate. B. Denied. Plaintiff filed a Complaint in Divorce on or about May 4/ 1994/ and the parties have been separated since January/ 1994. 11. Denied. The parties have been in the process of negotiation for an extended period of time. Negotiations have not been fruitful since Plaintiff has not been completely forthcoming in providing information. Defendant is unable to adequately assess any given . offers, or negotiate, without a complete understanding of the aSRets involved. 12. Denied. A. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that the parties own assets consisting of bank accounts and investment accounts. It is denied that depositions will not be required to complete the discovery process. Depositions will be required to allow Defendant the ability to discover the extent and nature of complex marital and non-marital assets. B. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that one of the marital assets is Plaintiff's interest in a partnership. It is denied that depositions will not be necessary to appraise the value of this partnership. The real estate owned by the partnership is extensive and determining exactly what needs to be appraised is at issue. By way of further answer, Defendant believes that the information sought will be extremely helpful in the negotiation, settlement and prosecution of this case. 13. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that the parties entered into an agreement as set forth in Plaintiff's Exhibit A. Nowhere in that agreement does it state that the parties are prohibited from seeking counsel fees and costs. The agreement merely states that the parties agree that no further funds will be distributed from the escrow account. Plaintiff should be ordered to - 2 - .. contribute counsel fees and expenses from his separate funds. 14. Denied. Plaintiff is in a better position to contribute to Defendant's counsel fees and costs. Plaintiff has access to a broadsr amount of assets than does Defendant. 15. Denied. The information provided to date by Plaintiff has been insuff icitmt and uninformative. WHEREFORE, Defendant requests that this Honorable Court grant her Motion for Leave to Take Discovery.
