The parties hereto are the parents of the following minor child, Ethan Rabanal, born December 20, 1991. Ethan Is entering the 7" grade this fall. 4. On or about January 19, 2004, Petitioner and Respondent agreed to allow the minor child to live with his father on a trial basis. 5. Since approximately April of 2004, however. the minor child has expressed a consistent preference to return to live with his mother, with whom he has lived his entire life. , . 6. On April 29, 2004, your Honorable Court entered an Order of Custody which provlded Inter alia. that the child be permitted to finish the second semester spring term In the Big Spring School District and further provided for a custody evaluation to be undertaken by Amold Shlenvold, Ph. D, (See exhibit "A" attached,) 7, As a result of the unexpected delay In having the evaluation completed before the start of the Fall 2004 school semester, and as a further result of the minor child's continuing, consistent and stated preference to retum to live with his mother, Mother decided to not pursue an evaluation and now seeks an Interim Order of Court to facilitate the child returning to her home to attend school In the Governor Mifflin School District In Reading, Berks County Pennsylvania. 8. As a result of a telephone conference between counsel and the Custody Conciliator, Hubert Gilroy, Esquire, on August 4, 2004, the matler was to have been referred to the Court for disposition regarding primary physical custody of Ethan on an expedited basis, which referral by the Custody Conciliator did not occur. 9. Counsel for the parties thereafter attempted to schedule a second Conciliation for Friday, August 27, 2004, at which time the minor child was to appear and both parties were to acquiesce to the school selection of the minor child following his discussion with the Custody Conciliator. 10, RespondenVFather however, prior to the Conclllallon, advised his attomey, Michael Scherer, Esquire, that he refused to bring the minor child to the Conciliation and the matter remains unresolved. 11. The current Order of Court does not address the minor child's schooling for the Fall of 2004 semester. ,- . , c, 12.
