IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS
CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA
NO. 95-4511
v.
RERRY HITT,
Defendant/Counterclaim
plaintiff
CIVIL ACTION - LAW
ANSWER
AND NOW, comes the Defendant, Rerry Hitt, by and through his
attorneys, Pannebaker and Jones, P.C., and responds to Plaintiff's
complaint, as follows:
1. Admitted.
2 . Admitted.
3. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is denied that
plaintiff only agreed to install the security system. Under the
Agreement, Plaintiff agreed to sell, install ~ monitor a
residential signaling system for the Defendant. Defendant admits
that Exhibit WAW is a true and correct copy of the contract.
4. Admitted.
5. Denied. It is denied that Defendant agreed to pay
monthly monitoring fees in the amount of $16.75 per month. Under
the agreement, the Defendant agreed to pay $201.00 for central
monitoring services provided by the Plaintiff for one year;
however, central monitoring services were never provided by the
Plaintiff.
6. Admitted.
7. Denied. Defendant denies that Plaintiff fully performed
all the terms and conditions of the contract which the plaintiff
- 1 -
I. "
was under a duty to perform. Specifically, Plaintiff failed to
complete installation of the system, or properly program the
system for Defendant's use to allow the system to be armed and
therefore, central monitoring of the system by the Plaintiff was
impossible. Proof to the contrary is demanded.
B. Denied. Defendant agreed to pay for monitoring services
in the sum of $201.00; however, because the Plaintiff never
completed installation of the system the Plaintiff prevented
itself from ever monitoring the system, despite charging the
Defendant $16.75 a month for nonexistent service. Proof to the
contrary is demanded.
9. Denied. Defendant has not made any payment for central
monitoring because the Plaintiff never completed installation of
the system, therefore, the Plaintiff prevented monitoring from
taking place. Proof to the contrary is demanded.
10. Denied. Under the contract, Defendant is not required to
pay the balance of the price for sale, installation and monitoring
of the system until Plaintiff has completed installation.
Plaintiff failed to complete the installation by making the system
operational and therefore, Defendant's performance is not due, and
Defendant has not breached the agreement. Proof to the contrary
is demanded.
11. Denied. Under the contract, Defendant is not required to
pay the balance of the contract price until Plaintiff has
completed installation. As set forth in answer to Paragraph 10,
installation is not complete, therefore payment is not due. Proof
to the contrary is demanded.
- 2 -
"
.'
"
12. Denied. In addition to the fact that Defendant is not
required to pay for the system until it has been completely
installed, it is also denied that that Defendant has been unjustly
enriched as the plaintiff has ignored the Defendant's repeated
requests for the Plaintiff to remove the useless system from the
residence. Proof to the contrary is demanded.
NEW HATTER
13. Paragraphs 1-12 are incorporated herein.
14. Under the contract, the Plaintiff was under the duty to
complete installation of the system as a condition precedent to
Defendant's payment of the balance of the purchase price. See
Paragraph 1 of the Agreement, attached to Complaint as Exhibit
-A-.
15. Defendant avers that the Plaintiff failed to fulfill the
following conditions precedent to payment under the contract:
a. plaintiff failed to completely install the security
system;
b. Plaintiff failed to properly program the system with
an exit/entry delay to allow the Defendant to arm the
system when he was absent from the residence;
c. Plaintiff prevented all monitoring of the system by
its failure to properly complete installation and
programming; and
d. Plaintiff therefore delivered a completely useless
system which could not be monitored because it could not
be armed.

WHEREFORE, the Defendant respectfully requests this Court to
dismiss the Plaintiff's claim, and to enter jUdgment for the
Defendant together with interest and costs.
COUNTERCLAIM
Count I - Breaoh of Contaot
16. Paragraphs 1-15 are incorporated herein.
17. Counterclaim Defendant breached the contract when it
failed to fulfill the conditions precedent to Counterclaim
Plaintiff'e obligation to pay the balance of the contract price,
as set forth in Paragraph 15, rendering the system useless as
installed.
18. Counterclaim Defendant's failure to complete installation
of the system constitutes a material failure of performance;
therefore, the Counterclaim Plaintiff is discharged from all
liability Under the contract.
19. The Counterclaim Defendant's breach was material in that:
a. the Counterclaim Plaintiff was deprived of the
benefit of an operational home security system which he
reasonably expected under the contract;
b. the Counterclaim Plaintiff can be adequately
compensated for that deprivation by rescission of the
contract and reimbursement for the Counterclaim
Plaintiff's downpayment of $500.00 on the purchase price;
and
- 4 -
, .
"
c. despite counterclaim Plaintiff's repeated requests
that counterclaim Defendant correct the problem or remove
the system, the counterclaim Defendant has given no
indication that it will cure its failure to perform.
20. The Counterclaim plaintiff's promise to pay the balance

Defendant's failure to perform authorizes the counterclaim
plaintiff to rescind the contract.

counterclaim Defendant to return counterclaim Plaintiff's $500.00

according to the instructions of the carpet retailer; however,
attempts at cleaning were unsuccessful and also caused the carpet
fibers to wear and fray. Counterclaim Plaintiff's carpet was
practically new, as it had been installed in July, 1994, and the
effects of the soiling, staining and subsequent attempts at cleaning
caused the carpet to appear old and worn.

through the acts of its agents or employees was so extensive as to
require replacement of the carpet at a cost of $1,000.00 to the
counterclaim Plaintiff. Receipt for replacement cost of the carpet
is attached as Exhibit "A".

Plaintiff's residence, the Counterclaim Defendant's agents or
employees failed to take reasonable care to avoid damaging an
insulation barrier in the attic. Such failure to take reasonable
care directly and proximately damaged the insulation barrier.

discovered by the Counterclaim Plaintiff, the specific amount of
damage is uncalculated at the present time.
