CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE
1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report:
1. The pertinent information concerning the children who are the subject of this
litigation is as follows:
NAME
DATE OF BIRTH
CURRENTLY IN THE CUSTODY OF
Austin Jacob Chubb
Corey Nicholas Chubb
April 20, 1995
July 17,1998
Mother
Mother
2. A Custody Conciliation Conference was held on August 26, 2002 pursuant to
Father's Complaint for Custody filed on July 23, 2002, seeking primary custody of the
parties Children. Present for the conference were the Father, David Chubb, and his
counsel, Lee E. Osterling, Esquire; the Mother, Leanne Chubb, and her counsel, Joan
Carey, Esquire.
3. The parties did not reach an agreement as to the custodial arrangement.
Therefore, a recommended Interim Order is attached to this report pending the outcome of
the hearing which will be set before the Court. However, prior to the hearing, the parties are
going to participate in an independent custody evaluation.
4. Father's position on custody: Father believes he is better suited to have
primary custody. Father is presently employed from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.rn. at the Team
Pennsylvania Foundation. He does not work weekends. He has some flexibility in his work
hours. He believes he is the parent better situated to care for the Children because Mother
is unemployed and does not have a driver's license. He is also concerned that when she
elected to move, she also enrolled the parties' son, Austin, in a different school in spite of
the fact that the school district would have continued to provide transportation so that he
could attend the school he attended last year where he received special education services
for his learning disabilities. Father produced a letter from the school principal
NO. 02-3490 CIVIL TERM
indicating that the Child has difficulty with change and through the placement at the
Shepardstown Elementary School and that through the school year at Shepardstown he
had made great progress academically and socially. Father has voiced his concern that if
Mother is the primary custodial parent that she will not be able to actively pursue
employment outside the home. Father reports that Mother removed the Children from his
custody following his vacation and for some period of weeks refused to allow him any
contact with the Children. It was only after counsel became involved that Father was able to
see the Children again.
5. Mother's position on custody. Mother claims the reason she denied Father
contacted until counsel made arrangements for some periods of partial custody for Father
was because she did not want the Children to be snatched back and forth between the
parents until there was an agreement about a schedule. Mother states that she is within
walking distance of the Northside Elementary School. She reports that Austin knows some
of the children at Northside Elementary and believes this familiarity will ease his transition
there. He was placed in a multiage classroom. She resides in a two (2) bedroom home
with the Children. She is presently not employed outside the home, but does plan to seek
employment.

ORDER OF COURT
AND NOW, this Z. ""- day of August, 2005, upon consideration of the attached
Custody Conciliation Summary Report, it is hereby ordered and directed as follows:
1. This Court's Order of September 10, 2002 is VACATED.
2. Leaal Custodv. The parties, David Chubb and Leanne Chubb, shall have
shared legal custody of the minor Children, Austin Jacob Chubb, born April 20, 1995 and
Corey Nicholas Chubb, born July 17, 1998. Each parent shall have an equal right, to be
exercised jointly with the other parent, to make all major non-emergency decisions affecting
the child's general well-being including, but not limited to, all decisions regarding their
health, education and religion. Pursuant to the terms of Pa. C. S. ~5309, each parent shall
be entitled to all records and information pertaining to the child including, but not limited to,
medical, dental, religious or school records, the residence address of the Child and of the
other parent. To the extent one parent has possession of any such records or information,
that parent shall be required to share the same, or copies thereof, with the other parent
within such reasonable time as to make the records and information of reasonable use to
the other parent. The requirements imposed upon Father with regard to involving Mother in
the decision-making regarding issues of health, education, and religious upbringing of the
Children shall be contingent upon Mother providing him with current contact information
including telephone numbers where she can regularly be reached and a residential address.
To the extent that Mother does not initiate contact with Father and provide this information
to him, Father is relieved of responsibility to include her in decision-making.
3. Phvsical Custodv. Father shall have primary physical custody of the children.
Mother shall be permitted periods of partial custody with the children as mutually agreed and
NO. 02-3490 CIVIL TERM

CUSTODY CONCILIATION SUMMARY REPORT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH CUMBERLAND COUNTY RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE
1915.3-8, the undersigned Custody Conciliator submits the following report:
1. The pertinent information concerning the Children who are the subject of this
litigation is as follows:
NAME
DATE OF BIRTH
CURRENTLY IN THE CUSTODY OF
Austin Jacob Chubb
Corey Nicholas Chubb
April 20, 1995
July 17, 1998
Father
Father
2. Father filed a Complaint for Modification and Finalization of Interim Order on
June 13,2005. The Custody Conciliation Conference was held on August 12, 2005. The
last Order in this matter was September 10, 2002. Attending the Custody Conciliation
Conference were: the Father, David Chubb, and his counsel, Herbert Corky Goldstein,
Esquire. The Mother, Leanne Chubb, did not attend. Counsel did not attend on her behalf.
3. Service of Process. Father's counsel served a copy of the Custody Complaint
for Modification and Finalization of Custody Order upon Mother at her last known address
via United States Mail on June 10, 2005. The Order scheduling the Conciliation Conference
was sent to Mother via restricted delivery mail on or about June 23, 2005. Mother signed
the green card indicating completion of the service of process on June 29, 2005. Mr.
Goldstein produced the card for the Conciliator and has agreed to file a Return of Service
regarding the Order scheduling the Conciliation Conference.
4. Father's position on custody is as follows: Father reports that he has had sole
custody of the Children since June 22, 2005. He reports that the Children have seen their
mother three times since that date. He has called her on numerous occasions to offer
additional visits with the Children however she has declined his offers. During these last
few months Father has arranged for the Children to spend time with Mother's extended
family and allowed them to participate in an out-of-town family wedding. He is also keeping
NO. 02-3490 CIVIL TERM
in contact with the maternal grandparents who reside in Mechanicsburg. Father reports that
Mother has been residing with a 22-year-old male who has twice been in drug rehab and
was recently incarcerated for a parole revocation on his drug charges. This gentleman's
name is Emil Lauffer. As a result of alleged bite marks on one of the Children's legs,
Children and Youth Services has been involved with the family. That Mother continues to
remain in a relationship with this man causes great concern to Father for the Children's
safety during periods of custody. He also reports that Mother has been evicted from two
different residences in a period of four months and that she recently informed him that they
had been evicted from their most recent address in the Oxford Manor apartments in
Mechanicsburg. Father produced a report indicating that Children and Youth had
investigated alleged abuse of the Children by Mr. Lauffer. The report was marked as
indicated. However, the agency has allegedly taken no action because the boys have been
placed with the Father. Austin continues to receive special educational services through his
local school district. Mother participated in the IEP meeting which occurred at the end of the
2004-2005 school year. Mother apparently recently contacted Father to inform him of her
recent eviction. Unfortunately, he does not have a current address for her, nor a place of
employment. It is his understanding that Mr. Lauffer has been released from prison.
5. Mother's position on custody is not known as she elected not to attend the
Conciliation Conference. The Conciliator provides the attached recommended Order of
Court based on the understanding that Father will continue to facilitate periods of partial
custody with Mother provided that the Children are not exposed to Mr. Lauffer.
