CIVIL ACTION. LAW
MOTION FOR RULE
AND NOW, comes Rashaan Elam by and throu9h her counsel, NEALON &
GOVER, P.C. and respectfully requests this Honorable Court to issue a Rule returnable
within twenty (20) days as to why the above-captioned actions should not be
consolidated and in support thereof avers the following:
1. An automobile accident OCcurred on August 28, 2000 at approximately
12:00 p.m. on Spring Road in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. On that date, time and place a
vehicle operated by Rashaan M. Elam (hereinafter ''Elam'') was involved in a collision
with a vehicle being operated by Thea Son (hereinafter "Son"). Lam Phuoc Kim
(hereinafter "Kim") was a passenger in the Son vehicle.
2. As a result of the aforesaid accident, Kim filed a civil action docketed at
02-3973, naming Elam and Son as defendants.
3. Son also brought a civil action against Elam docketed at 02-3958. This
action was for injuries allegedly sustained by Son due to Elam's alleged negligence
arising out of the August 28, 2000 motor vehicle accident.
4. Elam filed Answers to both Complaints and in Kim v. Elam and Son (02-
3973 CIVil) Elam filed a cross-claim against Son.
5. The undersigned counsel for Elam has contacted all counsel involved.
A. Counsel for Kim, Richard W. Johnson, Esquire, opposes this
motion for consolidation.
B. Counsel for Son, Karl J. Januzzi, J. Esquire, does not concur with
the within motion for consolidation.
C. Counsel for Son, as a cross-claim defendant, George H. Eager,
Esquire, does not oppose this motion for consolidation.
6. According to Pa. R.CP. 213 consolidation of actions is appropriate in
"actions pending in the county which involve a common question of law or fact or which
arise from the same transaction or Occurrence".
6. Consolidation may be sought by any party, Pa. R.C.P. 213(a).
7. This Honorable Court has adequate jurisdictional power to dispose of the
entire controversy by and among all parties.
8. Consolidation of the above matters is in the interest of judicial economy
since both actions arise out of the same operative facts (i.e. the motor vehicle accident
of August 28, 2000).
WHEREFORE, Rashaan E. Elam respectfully mquests this Honorable Court
issue a Rule upon all parties as to why the above matters should not be consolidated.
Respectfully submitted,
NEALON & GOVER, P.C.

1. Admitted.
2. Admitted.
3. Admitted.
4. Admitted.
5. Admitted.
6. Admitted.
7. Admitted.
8. Denied. To the contrary, consolidation is not in the interest of judicial economy.
Plaintiff, Lam Phuoc Kim is incarcerated. Therefore, undersigned counsel will be making application
to the Court to mark his case deferred until such time that he is released and can attend an arbitration.
In light of this circumstance, consolidation would only result in the delay of the other claim; it would
not promote economy.
WHEREFORE, Lam Phuoc Kim respectfully requests this Honorable Court deny Defendant's
Motion to Consolidate.
Respectfully Submitted,
WILSON & JOHNSON

representation.
3. A letter dated, September 11, 2001 indicates to Mr. Son, that the office of
Shollenberger & Januzzi had been trying to reach him by telephone and
had not been able to do so. A copy of said letter is attached hereto as
Exhibit "A."
4. A follow up letter was sent to Mr. Son on October 1, 2001, indicating that
he still needed to contact the office of Shollenberger & Januzzi, to set up
a recorded statement with the insurance adjuster in his case. A copy of
said letter is attached hereto as Exhibit "B."
5. On March 5, 2003, a set of Interrogatories were sent to Mr. Son by the

CIVIL ACTION - LAW
IN RE:
PRETRIAL CONFERENCE
A pretrial conference was held wednesday, August
30, 2006, before the Honorable Edward E. Guido, Judge. Present
for the Defendant was Michael S. Ferguson, Esquire. The
Plaintiff did not appear.
This is a noncomplicated auto accident case.
Defendant has been unable to get in touch with the pro se
Plaintiff, and it appears that she will not be at the trial.
The Defendant would like to have the case dismissed under the
Rules of Civil Procedure for her failure to appear at trial. He
has been advised that he needs to effectuate service of this
Order and the praecipe listing the case for trial. He will then
have to convince the Court that dismissal is the appropriate
remedy.
If Plaintiff does show up for trial, the case
should last no more than
one dgy,'"
