therein that Plaintiff sustained certain damages as a result of a slip and fall incident at
Defendant's place of business on August 1, 2000.
2. Defendant filed its Answer in this action on August 13,2002 denying liability
for Plaintiffs alleged accident.
3. Thereafter, Plaintiff was served Interrogatorit::s and a Request for Production
of Documents on August 14,2002.
4, Plaintiffs deposition had been noticed to take place in this action on
November 19, 2002, but was postponed because Plaintiff has not answered Defendant's
Interrogatories or Request for Production of Documents.
5. To date Defendant has not received Plaintiffs Answers to Interrogatories nor
Responses to Defendant's Request for Production of Documents nor is there any agreement of
counsel concerning any further enlargement of time for Plaintiff to answer this outstanding

CERVICAL SPINE
This study is slightly limited by the patient's condition. No
subluxation or fracture seen, Soft tlssue prominence in the nasal
pharynx is probably due to adenoid tlssue.
IMPRESSION:
Negative cervical splne. The study is mildly limited.
CHEST
There is prominence of the pulmonary arterial segment of the
mediastinal silhouette. This is more prominent than is usually seen.
It raises the possibility of enlargement of the main pulmonary artery,
as could occur with valvular disease. This does not have the
configuration of an enlarged aorta and there is no upper mediastinal
widening to suggest hemorrhage. The lungs and costophrenic angles are
clear with acute disease. There is a small nodule projecting in the
left mid lung field with the diameter of approximately 6 mm in a young
patient. This would presumably represent a scar. The visualized
bones are grossly intact.
IMPRESSIONS: Abnormally prominent pulmonary arterial segment of the

General Information on LACERATIONS (CUTS)
The word "laceration" is the medical term for an accidental cut in the skin. Lacerations often result from auto
accidents, falls or contact with broken glass or other sharp objects. Although some lacerations are very large, most
are only one to two inches long and can be easily repaired in the emergency department. Treatment usually
consists of:
1. a shot of numbing medication to deaden the area around the wound,
2. opening up the wound and cleaning it with lots of water and
3. stitching the wound back together with special thread. Stitching the wound usually results in less scarring and
quicker healing.
What are the risks?
Most lacerations heal in about two weeks and do not produce any serious medical problems. There are,
however, some risks:
1. When the skin is disrupted by a laceration, germs sometimes get into the wound and start to grow and multiply,
producing an infection. These wound infections occur in roughly 1 % to 3% of all lacerations and can result in
serious problems.
2. Most lacerations do leave some form of a permanent scar, although it may not be very noticeable. Many scars
gradually improve for the first 6 to 12 months after the initial injury.
3. Deep lacerations sometimes go into the blood vessels, tendons, nerves or bone. This can be serious.
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Keep the wound CLEAN and dry. Cover it with a plastic bag when bathing.
2) If the bandage gets dirty or wet, change it right away. Otherwise, you should change the bandage once a day,
starting the second day after the injury. To change the bandage you should:
A) remove the old bandage,
B) gently wash the area with soap and water,
C) if you are not allergic to it, using a Q-tip, gently apply a thin layer of antibiotic ointment and
D) put on a fresh bandage.
3) Most lacerations are not painful once they have been cleaned, stitched and bandaged. Pain medications are not
usually necessary.
4) Tetanus shots are good for 5 to 10 years, provided you have had all your childhood immunizations ("baby
shots").
5) SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION if:
A) you develop a fever, persistent bleeding, vomiting or
B) the wound gets warm, red, swollen or tender or
C) you develop red streaks on the skin near the wound or
D) you notice a creamy liquid (pus) draining from the wound.
6) Be extra careful if you have a very large laceration, an animal bite, a small puncture wound or a human bite
wound. These types of injuries tend to get infected more often.
7) Have the stitches removed in days by a nurse or doctor.

General Information on HEAD INJURIES
The term "head injury" refers to any injury that results from being hit on the head. Typically, there are cuts,
scrapes or bruises on the face or scalp and often there is a mild headache that gets better over one to two days.
More serious head injuries can also shake the brain, resulting in a momentary loss of consciousness, confusion or
amnesia. This is called a concussion.
Often head injuries result from motor vehicle accidents, falls or fights.
What are the risks?
Most minor head injuries (including mild concussions) get better over several days and do not produce any
serious medical problems. There are, however, some risks:
1. If there are any cuts or scrapes, they may become infected.
2. Sometimes there is serious damage to the face, eyes, ears, jaw or teeth.
3. A serious head injury can injure the brain, resulting in permanent brain damage or even death.
A serious head injury usually produces warning signs right away. On rare occasions, however, the WARNING
SIGNS MAY NOT APPEAR FOR SEVERAL HOURS OR EVEN DAYS. For this reason it is important to seek
immediate medical attention if any of these warning signs appear:
1. UNCONSCIOUSNESS (passing out, blacking out).
2. Unusual drowsiness.
3. Confusion.
4. A severe headache.
5. Vomiting.
6. Blurred vision.
7. Convulsions (seizures, fits).
8. A stiff neck.
9. Areas of numbness, tingling or weakness.
10. Stumbling or loss of balance.
11. Unequal size of the left and right pupils.
12. In children ALSO look for a decreased activity, trouble walking, poor feeding or fussiness.
INSTRUCTIONS
1) If you are not allergic to them, you may take acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) to help ease the pain.
Stronger medicines are not usually required.
2) SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION if you develop any of the warning signs listed above.
3) Unless instructed otherwise, FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS, you should:
A) stay with a friend or family member who has read this sheet and
B) have someone check you every 3 to 4 hours to make sure you have not developed any of the warning signs
listed above. At night they should wake you up about every 4 hours.

General Information on a SPRAINED NECK (Mild)
The neck is formed by seven bones that are stacked on top of each other and held together by strong bands
called ligaments. Any forceful bending or twisting of the neck may damage these ligaments, resulting in a
"sprained neck". This is the most common cause of everyday neck pain. Neck sprains often result from auto
accidents, sleeping in the wrong position, a poor posture, constant sneezing or a blow to the head or neck.
Sometimes the exact cause of the neck sprain can not be determined.
What are the symptoms?
A sprained neck usually produces an aching or cramping pain in the back of the neck. Movement of the head
usually makes this pain worse.
What are the risks?
Most people with a sprained neck gradually get better over several days and do not develop any serious medical
problems. There are, however, some risks:
1. Some people get episodes of neck pain over and over again. This is less likely to occur if proper care is taken.
2. Exams, tests and X-rays are not 100% reliable. Although unlikely, it is always possible that the neck pain may
actually be the result of another more serious medical problem such as a broken bone or an infection. This is
very uncommon, but it does occur.
Pg 3
INSTRUCTIONS
1) The best thing to help reduce the pain is to avoid any activity that puts stress on your neck. Avoid leaning over,
lifting, coughing or any rapid movements of the head. Laying in bed will relax the neck even more.
2) Ice packs are sometimes helpful during the first two days. Put the ice in a plastic bag. Roll up the bag in a
towel and put it on your neck for 5 to 15 minutes at a time.
3) After the first two days, warm packs may help ease the pain and speed healing. Roll up a small towel. Soak it
in warm water and put it on your neck for 5 to 15 minutes at a time.
4) Maintain a good posture; this puts less stress on your neck.
5) No medicine will relieve the pain completely, but aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil) or acetaminophen (Tylenol) may help.
WARNING: Do not take these drugs if you are allergic to them. Do not take these drugs if you are already taking
a prescription pain medication. DON'T GIVE ASPIRIN TO ANYONE LESS THAN 18 YEARS OLD.
6) Call your doctor if the pain does not get better within a week.
7) SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION if you develop severe neck pain, numbness, tingling or pass out.

CERVICAL SPINE
This study is slightly lim~ted by the patient's condition. No
subluxation or fracture seen, Soft tissue prominence in the nasal
pharynx is probably due to adenoid tissue.
IMPRESSION:
Negative cervical sp1ne. The study is mildly limited.
CHEST
There is prominence of the pulmonary arterial segment of the
mediastinal silhouette. This is more prominent than is usually seen.
It raises the possibility of enlargement of the main pulmonary artery,
as could occur with valvular disease. This does not have the
configuration of an enlarged aorta and there is no upper mediastinal
widening to suggest hemorrhage. The lungs and costophrenic angles are
clear with acute disease. There is a small nodule projecting in the
left mid lung field with the diameter of approximately 6 mm in a young
patient. This would presumably represent a scar. The visualized
bones are grossly intact.
IMPRESSIONS: Abnormally prominent pulmonary arterial segment of the
cardiac silhouette to suggest further evaluation.

General Information on LACERATIONS (CUTS)
The word "laceration" is the medical term for an accidental cut in the skin. Lacerations often result from auto
accidents. falls or contact with broken glass or other sharp objects. Although some lacerations are very large, most
are only one to two inches long and can be easily repaired in the emergency department. Treatment usually
consists of:
1. a shot of numbing medication to deaden the area around the wound,
2. opening up the wound and cleaning it with lots of water and
3. stitching the wound back together with special thread. Stitching the wound usually results in less scarring and
quicker healing.
What are the risks?
Most lacerations heal in about two weeks and do not produce any serious medical problems. There are,
however, some risks:
1. When the skin is disrupted by a laceration, germs sometimes get into the wound and start to grow and multiply.
producing an infection. These wound infections occur in roughly 1 % to 3% of all lacerations and can result in
serious problems.
2. Most lacerations do leave some form of a permanent scar, although it may not be very noticeable. Many scars
gradually improve for the first 6 to 12 months after the initial injury.
3. Deep lacerations sometimes go into the blood vessels, tendons, nerves or bone. This can be serious.
INSTRUCT/qNS
1) Keepthe wound CLEAN and dry. Cover itwitha plastic bag when bathing.
2) If the bandage gets dirty or wet, change it right away. Otherwise, you should change the bandage once a day,
starting the second day after the injury. To change the bandage you should:
A) remove the old bandage,
B) gently wash the area with soap and water,
C) if you are not allergic to it, using a Q-tip, gently apply a thin layer of antibiotic ointment and
D) put on a fresh bandage.
3) Most lacerations are not painful once they have been cleaned. stitched and bandaged. Pain medications are not
usually necessary.
4) Tetanus shots are good for 5 to 10 years, provided you have had all your childhood immunizations ("baby
shots").
5) SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION if:
A) you develop a fever, persistent bleeding, vomiting or
B) the wound gets warm, red, swollen or tender or
C) you develop red streaks on the skin near the wound or
D) you notice a creamy liquid (pus) draining from the wound.
6) Be extra careful if you have a very large laceration, an animal bite, a small puncture wound or a human bite
wound. These types of injuries tend to get infected more often.
7) Have the stitches removed in days by a nurse or doctor.
Pg 2
General Information on HEAD INJURIES
The term "head injury" refers to any injury that results from being hit on the head. Typically, there are cuts,
scrapes or bruises on the face or scalp and often there is a mild headache that gets better over one to two days.
More serious head injuries can also shake the brain, resulting in a momentary loss of consciousness, confusion or
amnesia. This is called a concussion.
Often head injuries result from motor vehicle accidents, falls or fights.
What are the risks?
Most minor head injuries (including mild concussions) get better over several days and do not produce any
serious medical problems. There are, however, some risks:
1. If there are any cuts or scrapes, they may become infected.
2. Sometimes there is serious damage to the face, eyes, ears, jaw or teeth.
3. A serious head injury can injure the brain, resulting in permanent brain damage or even death.
A serious head injury usually produces warning signs right away. On rare occasions, however, the WARNING
SIGNS MAY NOT APPEAR FOR SEVERAL HOURS OR EVEN DAYS. For this reason it is important to seek
immediate medical attention if any of these warning signs appear:
1. UNCONSCIOUSNESS (passing out, blacking out).
2. Unusual drowsiness.
3. Confusion.
4. A severe headache.
5. Vomiting.
6. Blurred vision.
7. Convulsions (seizures, fits).
8. A stiff neck.
9. Areas of numbness, tingling or weakness.
10. Stumbling or loss of balance.
11. Unequal size of the left and right pupils.
12. In children ALSO look for a decreased activity, trouble walking. poor feeding or fussiness.
INSTRUCTIONS
1) If you are not allergic to you may acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) to help ease the pain.
Stronger medicines are not usually required.
2) SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION if you develop any of the warning signs listed above.
3) Unless instructed otherwise, FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS, you should:
A) stay with a friend or family member who has read this sheet and
B) have someone check you every 3 to 4 hours to make sure you have not developed any of the warning signs
listed above. At night they should wake you up about every 4 hours.
Generallnformatlon on a 'SPRAINED NECK (Mild)
The neck is formed by seven bones that are stacked on top of each other and held together by strong bands
called ligaments. Any forceful bending or twisting of the neck may damage these ligaments, resulting in a
"sprained neck". This is the most common cause of everyday neck pain. Neck sprains often result from auto
accidents, sleeping in the wrong position, a poor posture, constant sneezing or a blow to the head or neck.
Sometimes the exact cause of the neck sprain can not be determined.
What are the symptoms?
A sprained neck usually produces an aching or cramping pain in the back of the neck. Movement of the head
usually makes this pain worse.
What are the risks?
Most people with a sprained neck gradually get better over several days and do not develop any serious medical
problems. There are, however, some risks:
1. Some people get episodes of neck pain over and over again. This is less likely to occur if proper care is taken.
2. Exams, tests and X-rays are not 100% reliable. Although unlikely, it is always possible that the neck pain may
actually be the result of another more serious medical problem such as a broken bone or an infection. This is
Pg 3
I(ery uncQmmon, but it does occur.
INSTRUCTIONS
1) The best thing to help reduce the pain is to avoid any activity that puts stress on your neck. Avoid leaning over,
lifting. coughing or any rapid movements of the head. Laying in bed will relax the. neck even more.
2) Ice packs are sometimes helpful during the first two days. Put the ice in a plastic bag. Roll up the bag in a
towel and put it on your neck for 5 to 15 minutes at a time.
3) After the first two days. warm packs may help ease the pain and speed healing. Roll up a small towel. Soak it
in warm water and put it on your neck for 5 to 15 minutes at a time.
4) Maintain a good posture; this puts less stress on your neck.
5) No medicine will relieve the pain completely, but aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil) or acetaminophen (Tylenol) may help.
WARNING: Do not take these drugs if you are allergic to them. Do not take these drugs if you are already taking
a prescription pain medication. DON'T GIVE ASPIRIN TO ANYONE LESS THAN 18 YEARS OLD.
6) Call your doctor if the pain does not get better within a week.

RE: Christopher Goins v. Flying J Inc. and Flying J Travel Plaza
CCP (Cumberland County) No.: 02-3672
Our File # 20614-00146.061
Dear Mr. Goins:
My law firm is representing Flying J Travel Plaza in a lawsuit that you filed against it some time ago. I
recently received correspondence from your former attorney, Andrew Norfleet, indicating that he is no longer
your attorney in this case. He has formally filed a withdrawal of his appearance as your attorney with the Court.
Do you intend to continue with this lawsuit? Do you intend to hire another attorney? If! do not hear
from you within the next thirty days, I am going to assume that you do not intend to proceed with this lawsuit
and I will ask the Court to dismiss it as a result of your failure to prosecute the action.
Please let me hear from you as to your intentions at your earliest convenience.
