CUSTODY COOCILIATIOO StJoIMJ\RY REPrnT
IN Ac:x:au>ANCE hrm ctJ1BERLAND CXXNl'Y RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE
19l5.3-B, the undersigned custody Conciliator submits the following report:
1. The pertinent information pertaining to the Child who is the
subject of this litigation is as follows:
NAME
BIRTHDATE
CURRENTLY IN CUSTODY OF
Danielle D. Ritter
october 18, 1993
Mother/plaintiff
2. A Conciliation Conference was held on April 27, 1995, with the
following individuals present:
The Mother, Buffie L. Gearhart, with her counsel, Keith B.
DeArmond, Esquire. The Mother's counsel presented a Return-Receipt Card
indicating that the Father, Michael R. Ritter, had been notified of the
Conciliation date and time.
3. The Child was born out of wedlock and the parties are not
currently married to each other. The Child has continuously resided with
the Mother since the Child's birth on october 18, 1993. The Father also
lived with the Mother and Child from the date of the Child's birth until
Septerrber 1994.
4. The Mother requested sole legal custody and primary physical
custody of the Child. According to the Mother, the Father, who is on
5.5.1. due to his adult attention deficit disorder, is unable to maintain
employment and has minimal caregiving and parental skills. The Mother
stated that the Father has not demonstrated a sustained interest in the
Child and only sees the Child when the Mother takes the Child to the
Father's residence for visitation. The Mother has facilitated contact
between the Father and the Child by taking the Child to see her Father
every other day when possible and at least weekly. The Mother stated that
she would be willing to continue with very liberal visitation with the
Father as 10ng as the visitation is supervised by either the Mother or the
Father's parents. Finally, the Mother stated that she would be responsible
for transporting the child because the Father does not have a drivers
license or a car. The Mother based her request for sole legal custody on
her claim that the Father has not shown an interest in participating in
decisions affecting the Child and the Father has refrained from becoming
I
I
r
aufficiently involved in the Child's life to be prepared to participate in
thoae decisiona.
5. Based on the foregoing information provided by the Mother and the
fact that the Father, despite notice, failed to attend the Conciliation
Conference, the Conciliator recommends an Order in the form aa attached.
