v.
IN CUSTODY
JENNIFER LEHMAN,
Defendant
:
#02-3667
CIVIL TERM
ANSWER TO CUSTODY COMPLAINT
TO THE HONORABLE, THE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:
1. The Plaintiff is Anthony Black, hereafter referred to as the natural father,
residing at lO Locust Circle, Etters, York County, Pennsylvania.
2. The Defendant is Jennifer Lehman, hereafter referred to as the natural mother,
residing at 400 Seventh Street, Apartment 7, New Cumberland, Cumberland
County, Pennsylvania 17013.
3. The Defendant-Mother seeks legal custody of the following child:
a.
Name
Present Residence
Age
Brandon Black
lO Locust Circle
Etters, Pa.
9 years
b. The child was born on January 24, 1997.
c. The child is presently in the joint shared custody of the parents, but the
father has the child the majority of the time because at entry of the
previous Order of Court, the mother worked nights.
d. The child has primarily resided with both parents , and the father's
current wife since the entry ofthe September 30th, 2002, Order of Court,
although the mother has exercised partial custody.
4. Defendant has not participated as a party or witness, or in another capacity, in
other litigation concerning the custody of the child in this or another Court.
5. Defendant has no information of a custody proceeding concerning the child
pending in a Court of this Commonwealth.
6. Defendant does not know of a person not a party to the proceeding with any
rights with respect to the child.
7. Each parent whose parental rights to the child has not been terminated and the
person who has physical custody of the child has been named as parties to this
action. There are no other persons who are known to have or claim a right to
custody or visitation of the child, so none will be given notice of the pendency
of this action and the right to intervene.
8. Pursuant to the Custody and Grandparents Visitation Act, the mother requests
this Court to grant an award of joint legal custody to both parents with
primary physical custody to her.
9. The mother requests physical custody of the child in that she is in a better
position to provide consistent and stable care for the child; she is the parent
more likely to assure that the child have a relationship with both parents; and
a half-sibling of the child also resides with her.
10. (a) At the beginning of the 2004-2006 school years, the father unilaterally
withdrew the child from his school, Hillside Elementary, which is one block
from the mother's and in which both parents had agreed to enter him and
entered him into another, Red Mill Elementary without the mother's knowledge
or consent. At that time, mother could not afford to seek legal counsel to
challenge this. The mother resides approximately 25 minutes from Red Mill
Elementary; the father approximately 25 minutes from Hillside. Mother is
willing to have the child continue at Red Mill through the end of this school
year, so as not to disrupt his education.
(b) The mother denies she told the child's school that he resided with her.
Rather, she went to the school to learn how the child was doing, and to obtain
school records which she is entitled to do under the present custody order.
11. The mother no longer works nights at the Holiday Inn, but has transferred to a
day shift so that the present order deprives her of sufficient time with the child.
Her work hours are from 7 a.m. until 2-3 p.m. Elementary school lets out at
3:45 p.m. The child's sibling is enrolled in a latch-key program from 6:30
a.m. until school begins and this program runs during the summer. The
mother will utilize this program for Brandon also.
12. The father has insisted that the child call his step-mother "mom", which the
mother considers inappropriate and does not advise the mother of Brandon's
events, schooling, or any other activities.
13. The best interests and permanent welfare of the child and his physical,
spiritual, emotional and moral well-being will be served by granting the relief
