On JanulU')' 14, 1999, this Court ordered Defendant to pay $21,350.00 to Plaintiff. 2, Defendant is a participant in a 401(k) plan through his employer at Capital Blue Cross that currently has assets which exceed the sum ordered to be paid. 3. Defendant has filed an appeal to the Superior Court of the Court Order. 4. Pennsylvania Rules of Appellate Procedure 1731(b) penults the trial court to grant supersedeas of orders provided security is posted in an amount and under the tenus set within the discretion of the court. 5, Defendant consents to a court order whereby he is enjoined from wlthdmwing funds from the 401(k) account pending final resolution of his appeal. 6.

DEILYI Good afternoon, Your Honor. 8 THE COURT 1 Good afternoon. This is the time 9 and place for a hearing on the Petition To Enforce property 10 settlement and Separation Agreement filed on behalf of the 11 Plaintiff, Rose M. Fulton. We will let the record indicate 12 that she is present in court with her counsel, Johnna Deily, 13 Esquire. The Defendant, Robert K. Fulton, is also present 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 with the personal property, but obviously the petition also 21 indicates that there's a problem with -- alleged problem 22 with the IRA. I'm not sure what relief, as far as the 23 record is concerned, that the plaintiff is seeking in regard 24 to the Blue Cross IRA or -- yeah, 401K. I'm sorry. 25 MS. DEILYl Your Honor, that is correct. My in court with his counsel, James K. Jones/ Esquire. Are counsel ready to proceed? MS. DEILYl Yes/ Your Honor. MR. JONESl Yes, Your Honor. I would have one clarification though just as part of the record. The relief sought, as far as the petition is concerned, deals 3 ~ --- 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 client, the reason why it was left blank as to the exact nature of what she would be seeking was due to the fact that there was a tax problem here. Our remedy would be either for the Defendant to pay the tax liability or to restructure the QDRO so to increase the value of the money that was taken from the 401K to make-up the difference in the tax. Your Honor, I believe that's a call that you can make as part of your judgment, in the event that the relief as requested is granted. THE COURT: Are you asking to amend your petition to claim that relief? MS. DEILY: Yes, Your Honor. THE COURT: Mr. Jones, do you have any objection to that amendment? MR. JONES: I have no objection to making the amendment. THE COURT: MS. DEILY: THE COURT: MS. DEILY: Whereupon, Okay. Thank you. Ms. Deily. I will call Rose Fulton. ROSE FULTON haVing been duly sworn, testified as followSI DIRECT EXAMINATION BY MS. DEILY: 4 ~ ~ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 Q Rose, would you please state your full name for the record? A Rose M. Fulton. Q And where do you live? A I'd like my address listed as 411 North Bedford street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, 17013. Q Where are you employed? A National Health systems. Q Now you were the Plaintiff in a divorce action filed by Robert K. FUlton, is that correct? A Yes. Q When were you separated from Mr. Fulton? A on November 1st, 1995. Q And your divorce has been finalized, is that correct? A Yes, July 1st, 199B. Q Now part of that divorce also included a property settlement and separation agreement, is that correct? A Yes. Q And you and Mr. Fulton both executed the agreement as part of your equitable distribution of your marital property, is that correct? A Yes. Q I'm going to show you what I have had marked 5 3 --- ~ 1 ae Plaintiff's Exhibit A. 2 THE COURTl No, we mark them as numbers. MS. DEILYl Oh, I'm sorry. Number one. It 3 4 has been marked, Your 1I0nor. I apologize. It's number one. 5 Now referring to the property settlement agreement -- 6 THE COURTl What is Plaintiff's Exhibit 1? I 7 need the witness to say what it is. 8 BY MS. DEILYl 9 10 No.1? Can you please identify Plaintiff's Exhibit Q 11 12 13 14 15 16 A Property settlement and separation agreement. Q What is the date on that agreement? A April 27th, 1998. Q As far as you know, this was also made part ot the record in your divorce proceeding, is that correct? A Yes. 17 Now in order to finalize this property Q 18 settlement agreement, how did we come about the terms ot 19 this agreement? 20 MR. JONESl Your lIonor, I'm going to object 21 ae to relevancy. I think it really is where it all comee 22 down to the crux as far as this whole matter is concerned. 23 our position is that paragraph eight, dealing with the 401K 24 plan, is not ambiguous. It is clear as to how much is to be 25 distributed and how it is to be distributed. The property 6 7~ ~ ~ 1 Bettlement agreements are just like contracts, and if there 3 is no ambiguity, the Court can't look outside the four 3 corners of the agreement in order to determine its meaning. 4 Our position is that the meaning of paragraph 5 eight is clear. It's even supplemented by the QDRO, which 6 indicates that this is to be received as a retirement 7 benefit under paragraph c, and that the Plaintiff to that 8 extent should not be permitted to supplement the meaning of 9 or the interpretation of what's contained within the 10 agreement itself. 11 THE COURT: All right. Ms. Deily, do you 12 have a response to that objection? 13 MS. DEILY: Yes, Your Honor. I believe that 14 you will need to listen to the oral testimony as to the 15 terms of the agreement because paragraph three of the 16 agreement as well as paragraph eight of the agreement are 17 the crux of the entire equitable distribution of the 18 parties' marital property. I believe that since it is 19 ambiguous as to the treatment, especially with the wording 20 of the QDRO that was prepared by Defendant's attorney, that 21 you will need to hear testimony as to what the terms were 22 and what the understanding of those terms were at the time 23 of the negotiating with the property settlement agreement as 24 well as at the time of the signing of the agreement. 25 THE COURT: Do you first want to place on the 7 S ~ A 1 record some sort of foundation for this in terms of reading 2 into the record what the contested portions of the agreement 3 are and then what has happened that has led to a difficulty? 4 MS. DEILYl Yes, Your Honor. I will have the 5 witness. I had provided her with Plaintiff's Exhibit No.1. 6 I would like for her to read paragraph number three, first 7 of all, of the property settlement agreement and its terms. 8 Do you have that in front of you? 9 MR. JONES: Your Honor, I believe that 10 Exhibit 1 is already part of the record as the property 11 settlement agreement. That was incorporated into the 12 decree. 13 MS. DEILYl That's correct, Your Honor, but 14 for ease of the hearing this afternoon, I believe that it's 15 important that we reiterate certain and highlight certain 16 paragraphs of the agreement so that you may make a 17 determination as to what the outcome will be. 18 TilE COURT: I think that would be helpful for 19 purposes of a rUling upon your objection, Mr. Jones. 20 MR. JONESl That's fine. 21 BY MS. DEILY: 22 Q Go ahead, Rose, please. 23 A The parties are the owners of cprtain real 24 estate with improvements thereon erected known as 1037 Wayne 25 Avenue, carlisle, Cumberland county, Pennsylvania. 8 ~ A 1 Wife agrees within 30 days of the signing of 2 this agreement to convey said real estate to husband by 3 special warranty deed. Husband shall assume full 4 responsibility for all household expenses including, but not 5 limited to, the mortgage to Financial Trust, now Keystone 6 Financial, and the Dauphin Deposit home equity loan, liens 7 of record, utility bills, insurance and real estate taxes in 8 connection with said property. With regard to all such 9 expenses, husband hereby agrees to hold wife harmless and 10 indemnify her against any loss thereon. 11 Further, husband agrees to refinance said 12 loaning obligations by June 15th, 199B. At the time of 13 refinancing, husband will pay to wife the sum of $5000.00, 14 which represents a portion of her equity in the marital 15 home. 16 Q Thank you, Rose. Could you also please read 17 paragraph number eight of the property settlement and 18 separation agreement? 19 A In exchange of her equitable share of the 20 marital portion of the remaining interest in the real estate 21 and husband's retirement and pension accounts, husband shall 22 pay to wife the sum of $20,000.00. This shall be paid in a 23 Qualified Domestic Relations order from husband's 401K plan 24 at Capital Blue Cross. Both parties shall cooperate to 25 effectuate a transfer of these funds as quickly as possible. 9 77 ~ '" 1 Q Thank you. 2 THE COURT: Did you say, in exchange of? And 3 I guess that is the way it reads, does it not? 4 MS. DEILY: In exchange of her equitable 5 share of the marital portion 6 THE WITNESS: In exchange of her equitable 7 share of the marital portion of the remaining interest in 8 the real estate and husband's retirement and pension 9 accounts 10 THE COURT: All right. Thank you. 11 BY MS. DEILY: 12 Q Now, Rose, how did we get to the point of 13 negotiating this property settlement separation agreement? 14 THE COURT: I need to know what problem has 15 arisen that causes some difficulty with those provisions. 16 MS. DEILY: Well, Your Honor, what I'd like 17 to present for that is what I have had marked as Plaintiff's 18 Exhibit No.4. 19 BY MS. DEILY: 20 Q Rose, could you please identify what this 21 exhibit is? 22 A This is a letter from Blue Cross Blue Shield 23 Association from an Ellen Ellwanger, manager, benefits 24 compliance and 401K programs. 25 THE COURT: How do you spell her name? ~1 10 ~ - 1 THE WITNESS: Ellen, E-l-l-e-n. Middle 2 initial, M. Last name, E-l-l-w-a-n-g-e-r. 3 THE COURT: Thank you. 4 BY MS. DEILY: Q To whom is this letter addressed? A To Johnna Deily, my attorney. Q To whom was the letter copied to? A It was copied to Robert Fulton, Rose Fulton, John Weigel, and a Chris Miceli. M-i-c-e-l-i. 5 6 7 8 9 Q And John Weigel was the attorney that had 11 originally represented Mr. Fulton when we were negotiating 12 the property settlement, is that correct? 13 14 A Yes. 15 please begin reading where it says, page four of the special 16 tax notice. Do you see that? It's about the fifth 17 paragraph down. 18 Q Now specifically in this letter, could you 19 that the rules that apply to payments to employees also 20 apply to former spouses who are alternate payees. Under the 21 IRS rollover rules that apply to employees and alternate 22 payees, certain distributions from qualified retirement 23 plane are considered eligible rollover distributions. In an 24 A Page four of the special tax notice provides 25 directly to an alternative -- to an alternate payee, and not eligible if an eligible rollover distribution is paid 11 79 ~ A 1 rolled over to another qualified retirement program or 2 individual retirement account, IRA, then 20 percent of the 3 amount is to be withheld for taxes. Ms. Fulton should 4 consult with a tax advisor before she elects to receive this 5 distribution. 6 Q Now, Rose, before I have you read further, do 7 you have a qualified retirement program or an IRA at this 8 time that you would be eligible to rollover any monies 9 received under this pension plan? 10 A No, not at this time. 11 Q okay. Could you please continue reading the 12 next paragraph? 13 A In response to your october 5 letter, if Hs. 14 Fulton elects to have the QDRO distribution paid directly to 15 her and does not elect a direct rollover to a qualified plan 16 or IRA, then 20 percent will be withheld and sent to the IRS 17 to be credited toward her tax liability. Her payment will 18 be 80 percent of $20,000.00 or a net payment of $16,000.00. 19 Alternatively, if she electes a direct rollover of the QDRO 20 to a qualified plan or IRA, a payment of $20,000.00 will be 21 made from the program and Ms. Fulton will be able to defer 22 the taxes until a later date when she withdraws the funds. 23 Q Again, do you have any type of a pension or a 24 qualified plan that would allow you to rollover the money 25 that's received from the 40lK plan to avoid that tax 12 6 ~ . 1 liability? 2 A No. 3 Q Okay. And will you please continue reading 4 the last paragraph? 5 A If the alternate payee does not intend to 6 rollover the QDRO distribution and it was agreed that she 7 would receive the net amount of $20,000.00, then the QDRO B would need to be amended. In order to receive a net check 9 amount of $20,000.00, the amount of the retirement benefit 10 specified in the QDRO should be $25,000.00. 11 Q Thank you. 12 THE COURTl I think that's enough of a 13 foundation for the issue of the objection. Ms. Deily, what 14 is your interpretation of that, those clauses in the 15 agreement? 16 MS. DEILYl In the property settlement 17 agreement? Well, Your Honor, I believe that you will need 18 to hear testimony from my client. The underetanding for 19 the-- 20 THE COURTl No, I don't want the 21 understanding. Right now, I'm trying to decide whether to 22 allow parole evidence in, and I need to know what your 23 position is as to what that clause means. 24 MS. DEILYl It's my client's position that 25 the two paragraphs, paragraph number three and paragraph 13 I ~ ; L 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ~ . number eight, coupled together provide for a distribution of $25,000.00 in exchange for my client's share of the marital portion of the house as well as a waiver of his retirement and his pension plan. I also have to present into evidence a copy of the deed showing that she did transfer her interest. She signed the property settlement agreement waiving his retirement and pension, and altogether taken together, the net amount that my client should receive i8 $25,000.00. THE COURT: All right. Mr. Jones, what i. your interpretation of that clause in the agreement? MR. JONES: The interpretation is squarely within the four corners in that there was an agreement under paragraph three that she would receive $5000.00 subsequent to Mr. fulton refinancing, which has already been done. That has already been taken care of. Paragraph eight though indicates that she will receive $20,000.00 payable through a QORO from his 401K. And paragraph c of the QORO then indicates -- and this is the second line of the second page -- I'm sorry, it's paragraph e -- pursuant to the divorce decree entered on July 1, 1998, the alternate payee shall receive a retirement benefit from the program in an amount of the lesser, paragraphs one or two. One or two are the amounts as follows: either the amount that's actually in the program or $20,000.00. Clearly she's to receive it 14 gJ ~ ~ 1 as a Qualified Domestic Relations order to an alternate 2 payee. 3 If she subsequently decided to take it as 4 cash, certainly it shouldn't be my client's burden, under 5 the agreement, to pay for any tax consequences. It's clear 6 within the wording of paragraph eight and the QDRO that she 7 is to receive $20,000.00 in a QDRO from the 401K. clearly, 8 there are tax consequences and rules that apply to that type 9 of transfer. There is nothing within the agreement that 10 changes those requirements under the transfer. Under the 11 agreement and the QDRO, she receives a retirement benefit of 12 $20,000.00 from the 401K. I don't see any ambiguity at all 13 as far as the terms of the contract, and that is what my 14 client understood it to be when he signed it. 15 THE COURT: All right. The Court will permit 16 parole ~vidence to be received on the meaning of the clause 17 in the agreement that is at issue. 18 19 BY MS. DEILY: MS. DEILY: Thank you, Your Honor. 20 Q Now, Rose, how did we come about negotiating 21 the terms of the property settlement agreement? 22 A We met in your office. We, meaning who? Robert Fulton, myself, John Weigel, and you. Again, John Weigel had previously represented 23 Q A 24 25 Q 15 rJ ~ ~ A Q A Q pension? A Q 16 ~ -- 1 BY MS. DEILY: 2 Q That was your marital home? 3 A Yes. 4 Q Now when we were at the four-party 5 conference, you had negotiations with Mr. Fulton as to how 6 the $25,000.00 was to be paid, is that correct? 7 A Yes. 8 Q And what was your understanding of how that 9 was to be paid out? 10 A How I wanted it to be or -- 11 Q How you wanted it to be first? 12 A Well, I had hoped that he would refinance the 13 property for the full $25,000.00 and I would be paid that 14 way, but he said that he could only manage to refinance it 15 for an additional $5000.00, and so I cooperated and signed 16 it over and was to get the $20,000.00 from the retirement 17 plan. 18 Q Did we discuss at the time of the four-party 19 conference that he had sufficient funds in his retirement 20 plan or in his 401K plan that would enable him to pay you 21 the $20,000.00? 22 A Yes. 23 0 And your concern at that time was what? 24 A My only concern was, I was told at that time 25 that I might have to wait up to a year to get the money, but 18 '-& ......~...... .. "" ,-. 1 there was never anything stated to me that I would get 2 16,000 because 4000 would be deducted for taxes. I 3 understood that I was getting $20,000.00. 4 Q okay. And Mr. Weigel at that time had agreed 5 to prepare the QDRO, as he had previously been in contact 6 with Blue Cross and Blue Shield, is that correct? 7 A Yes. 8 Q So other than having to possibly wait longer 9 than you would have for a cash payout or the refinancing, 10 you had agreed to execute a QDRO and cooperate into 11 executing a QDRO on the understanding that you would receive 12 $20,000.00 eventually? 13 A Yes. 14 Q Now in the letter that I had previously 15 marked as Plaintiff's Exhibit No.4, one of the options was 16 to amend the QDRO, is that correct? 17 A Yes. 18 Q And if that was amended for you to receive 19 $25,000.00, what is your understanding of what you would be 20 receiving under that QDRO? 21 A It's my understanding that I would receive 22 $25,000.00, that I would have to use the extra $5000.00 to 23 pay the taxes on it. It would, of course, be included in my 24 income for the year that the money was distributed, and I 25 would have to pay him money back. 19 ~ """ ~ 1 TilE COURT I This isn't clear. The question 2 was, one of the options was that you could get $25,000.00. 3 It sounds as if that was one of the options discussed at 4 this conference. 5 THE WITNESSI No. TilE COURT I All right. When was that option 6 7 raised? 8 THE WITNESS I The first time I saw it was 9 when I received this letter. 10 THE COURT I I see. 11 MS. DEILYI Your Honor, the $25,000.00 are 12 two different figures. 13 TilE COURT I I understand, but the record just 14 wasn't clear the way the question was asked. 15 MS. DEILYI Okay. 16 BY MS. DEILYI 17 Q One of the options is to amend the QDRO to 18 take out an additional $5000.00, is that correct? 19 A Yes. 20 Q okay. And then you would be assuming the taK 21 liability, but net in-pocket would be $20,OOO.00? 22 A Twenty thousand. Okay. Now you had started to state that you 23 Q 24 would pay him back, meaning Mr. fulton, if you received any 25 refund back from the IRS? 20 'it 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ~ ~ A Right, if I didn't need the entire 5000 to pay the taxes on the 20,000. Q You would be willing to give him it back? A I would have to give him back any surplus funds. That's my understanding of it. Q Okay. THE COURT: You said at one point, you said, $16,000.00, and then at another point, we're talking about an extra $sOOO.OO? THE WITNESS: Okay. The way that the plan is written, in order for them to pay me $20,000.00, they would deduct $4000.00. They would take the 20 percent taxes off of it. THE COURT: Deily. I've got it. I understand. Thank you. Ms. BY MS. DEILY: Q Now, Rose, is there another alternative that you see other than amending the QDRO? A If there were some way that I would get the 16,000 and he would pay me the additional 4. I feel, from the settlement, that I'm entitled to the $20,000.00, and that's what I would like to have happen. Q So if Mr. Fulton could receive the 401K plan himeelf A That would be another option, if he were to 21 [ IllI\ ~ 1 withdraw the QDRO or the QDRO were rewritten so he withdrew 2 the money. And in that way, that extra $5000.00 wouldn't be 3 involved in my finances or any income for the year. 4 Q And you would be receiving the $20,000.00 5 that you had intended to receive when you were negotiating, 6 is that correct? 7 A Right. Okay. Now moving off of the QDRO and the 8 Q 9 401K, you also had in your part of your property settlement 10 and separation agreement a provision to split up your 11 personal property, is that correct? 12 A Yes. 13 Q Do you still have the property settlement 14 agreement in front of you? 15 A Yes. 16 Q I'd ask you to refer to paragraph six in the 17 agreement. Could you please read the introductory 18 paragraph? I won't have you read all of the property yet 19 but the introductory paragraph. 20 A The parties hereto mutually agree that they 21 have effected a satisfactory division of the furniture, 22 household furnishings, appliances, tools and other household 23 personal property between them, except for the following 24 items, which shall go to the wife. 25 Q And then listed there, there's about 15 items 22 .. ~ ~ 1 not belonging to husband. I did not receive my 2 grandmother's dishes. I did receive the cake dish but not 3 the dishes. I didn't receive the Fostoria vase. 4 THE COURT I Wait. This is going too fast. 5 You did not receive the hutch or the c~ntents 8 THE WITNESS: Not belonging to husband. THE COURT I okay. THE WITNESS: I did not receive my 6 7 9 grandmother's dishes. I did receive the cake dish but not 10 the other dishes. 11 THE COURT: okay. with the exception of the 12 cake dish, you did not receive the dishes. 13 THE WITNESS: I did not receive the Fostoria 14 vase. 15 THE COURT: The what? 16 THE WITNESS: Fostoria vase. 17 THE COURT: Fostoria? 18 THE WITNESS: Yeah. 20 THE COURT: How do you spell that? THE WITNESS I F-o-s-t-o-r-i-a. 19 22 THE COURT: All right. THE WITNESS: I did not receive the trunk and 21 23 its contents not belonging to husband in the spare bedroom. 24 I received the desk and chair, but I did not receive the 25 contents in the desk that belonged to me, with the exception 24 4A ~ ~ 1 of a few pencils. And I didn't receive the old table in the 2 basement. 3 BY MS. DEILY: 4 Q You received everything else? 5 A I received the rest, yes. 6 Q Now when we were in the four-party 7 conference, again referring you to the time frame that we 8 had all met, what was your understanding of how you would 9 receive the balance of your personal property? 10 A Bob did not want me to come to the house and 11 pick up the property, so he agreed that he would deliver it 12 to my parents' house. 13 Q Where do your parents live? 14 A 411 North Bedford street, Carlisle. 15 Q How far away is that in relation to your 16 home? 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 front porch of the house. We did get a number of boxes and 24 items. 25 THE COURT: Did they all come at once? A A mile and a half I two miles. Q okay. Continue. A I asked him in that meeting if he would please deliver it to their side porch and make sure that it was delivered in good weather, and he agreed to do that. But the boxes and things that he did deliver, he put on the 25 ~ ~ 1 TilE WITNESS I No. It was spread out over 2 many weeks. 3 TilE COURT I okay. 4 5 6 7 BY MS. DEILYI Q Now you did receive some of those itsms? A Yes, some of those items were in the boxes. Q As far as you were aware, Mr. Fulton returned those items in boxes to your parents' home? 8 9 10 A Yes. Q Okay. Now I think I will have this marked. 11 I'm going to have this marked as Plaintiff's Exhibit No.7. 12 (Whereupon, 13 Plaintiff's Exhibit No. 7 14 was marked for identification.) 15 BY MS. DEILYI 16 Q Can you please identify what's been marked as 17 Plaintiff's Exhibit No.7? 18 A This is the hutch listed in the property 19 settlement that I was to receive. 20 TilE COURT I Is that a photograph? TilE WITNESS I Yes, it is. TilE COURT I All right. 21 22 23 BY MS. DEILYI 24 Q A Did you take that photograph, Rose? Yes, I did. 25 26 ( ~ "'" 1 on occasions when I would know they'd be gone for hours, if 2 I wasn't at work, I would drive by to make sure that nothing 3 had been left. 4 5 other items that were not delivered to you from Hr. Fulton? Q Did you at any time see the hutch or the that the hutch or any other items were on their property? A No. Q At any time did any neighbors contact you to say that there was a hutch there on your parents' property? A No. Q Now have you asked Hr. Fulton to have those items returned back to you? 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 A No. Q At any time did your parents make you aware A Yes. Not recently, but I have. Since the summer. Now one of the items that Q 17 you were to receive was a picture, is that correct? 18 19 picture. 20 21 Yes, I was to receive my grandmother's A Q What was on that picture? It was a picture of a child that had hung in A 22 my grandmother's living room for as long as I can remember. 23 okay. And that was one of the items that was 24 to be returned to you as part of the property settlement? Q 25 A Right. 2B 9~ '"" ~ 1 believe, wae sustained, is that correct? 2 THE COURT I Yes. 3 MS. DEILYI Your Honor, I'm not asking her to 4 identify this any longer as I don't have the woman from the 5 gallery. I'm just aSking if she has received any kind of 6 knowledge as to what the cost would be to repair this 7 particular damage to the picture. 8 THE COURT I Wouldn't that be something she 9 learned from somebody else that would simply be hearsay? 10 MS. DEILYI Yes, Your Honor. 11 THE COURT I The objection is sustained. MS. DEILYI Okay. 12 13 BY MS. DEILYI 14 Q Is your picture in the condition it was when 15 you left the property? 16 A No, it isn't. 0 Left your home. It's not? A No, it's not. It's in three pieces. 0 It's in three pieces? A Yes. 0 specifically, what was done to the picture? A It was removed from the frame that it had 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 always been in, and because of the age of the -- it wasn't a 24 painting, it was a picture. And because of the material 25 that it was printed on, when it was taken out of the frame, 30 ( "" ~ 1 it was pretty much destroyed. 2 Q Has the picture ever been removed from the 3 frame when it was in your marital home? 4 A No. 5 Q So it was your understanding that the picture 6 was to be delivered in an in-tact -- 7 A Yes. 8 Q -- condition? 9 A Yes. 10 Q Now do you have a value or any way to place a 11 value on the items that have not been returned to you? 12 A Well, with regard to the hutch, which is 13 probably the most valuable item, Bob, Mr. Fulton, prepared a 14 list of the property in the home, and on that list, he 15 included the hutch. He valued all of the items. And he 16 valued the hutch at $1200.00. 17 Q That came from Mr. Fulton? 18 A That came from Mr. Fulton. 19 Q That was part of a negotiation as far as the 20 value of all the personal property? 21 A Yes. 22 Q How about any of the other items? Are they 23 more of value, like your grandmother's dishes, do they have 24 a value to themselves or more of a sentimental value? 25 A All of the items that I asked for either 31 "'" ~ 1 belong to my daughter, and she hoped to get them, or they 2 had sentimental value to me. 3 Q You have no way of placing a value? 4 A So it's really difficult, you know, to eay 5 how much thsy're worth. 6 Q Okay. 7 THE COURT: Leaving off the sentimental part 8 of it, how much are they worth, in your opinion? 9 THE WITNESS: Including the hutch, I'd say 10 $1200.00 to $1500.00. 11 BY MS. DEILY: 12 Q Was the set of dishes from your grandmother a 13 full set? 14 A No, it was just some pieces that she had 15 given to me, so it's -- 16 Q Now I'll ask you one last time to refer to 17 the property settlement and separation agreement that had 18 been marked as Plaintiff's Exhibit No.1. And I'll direct 19 you to paragraph number 19. Could you please read that? 20 A In the event that either party breaches any 21 provision of this agreement, and the other party retains 22 counsel to assist in enforcing the terms thereof, the 23 parties hereby agree that the breaching party will pay all 24 attorney's fees, court costs and expenses incurred by the 25 other party in enforcing the agreement. 32 ~ ~ 1 A $540.00. 2 MS. DEILY: Your Honor, I would ask at this 3 time to amend the complaint for an amount specific for 4 reimbursement of attorneY'e fees, if you should find that 5 Mr. Fulton has breached the terms of the property settlement 6 agreement, to include the $540.00 that my client has had to 7 pay in order to enforce the agreement. This does not 8 include time for the last hearing, the time when we 9 appeared, assuming that we would have the last hearing for 10 today's time. It is up to include January 4th of 1999. 11 THE COURT: Mr. Jones. 12 MR. JONES: This is the first time I've heard 13 of this. I mean, there's nothing in the complaint 14 requesting attorney's fees to enforce it. There's been no 15 mention at all prior to this point. The question of relief 16 certainly doesn't because certainly, as I indicated before, 17 that was only for return of personals. There is no request 18 in the petition at all as far as attorney's fees. 19 MS. DEILY: Your Honor, that's why I asked to 20 amend the complaint. Mr. Jones And I had -- well, Mr. 21 Weigel and I initially had been negotiating this, and asked 22 for the return of attorney's fees, and Mr. Jones and I also 23 discussed this prior to the time that we came to the last 24 hearing. 25 MR. JONES: There were discussions as far as 34 I . ~ --- 1 relief. There were no discussions though as far as 2 attorney's fees are concerned. There certainly isn't any 3 notice in the petition she's going to be asking for 4 attorney's fees. 5 MS. DEILY: Your Honor, the property 6 settlement agreement provides for a remedy in the event that 7 there's a breach, and I would ask at this time if you should 8 find that Mr. Fulton has breached the terms of the property 9 settlement agreement by not returning the personal property 10 or by not complying with the requirement to pay my client 11 the $20,000.00, that she be reimbursed the attorney's fees 12 that were out-of-pocket, as provided for in the property 13 settlement agreement. 14 MR. JONES: My point is, we should at least 15 have received notice of this prior to the time that she 16 testified or at least the time of the hearing so we could 17 prepare for trial. 18 THE COURT: The request to amend the petition 19 to include any demands for attorney's fees is denied. Ms. 20 Deily. 21 BY MS. DEILY: 22 Q Rose, to sum this up, you're requesting what 23 remedy from the Court today? 24 A Well, if there was any way that I could get 25 the personal property, I would rather have it than the 35 ~ --- 1 money, but I don't foresee that happening, so I would ask 2 that there be some way that I get the $20,000.00. That's 3 what I expected to get, and I feel that I'm entitled to 4 that, and some monetary value for the hutch and the other 5 items. 6 THE COURT: Thank you. 7 MS. DEILY: Thank you, Rose. 8 THE COURT: Mr. Jones. 9 CROSS EXAMINATION 10 BY MR. JONES: 11 Q Mrs. Fulton, you've read so well so far, 12 could you read paragraph 20, please? 13 A This agreement constitutes the entire 14 understanding between the parties and there are no 15 covenants, conditions, representations, or agreements, oral 16 or written, of any nature whatsoever, other than those 17 herein contained. 18 Q You were permitted to explain the background 19 as far as what led to the arriving at the $20,000.00 figure, 20 and I believe you indicated that you took all of your assets 21 and split them 50/50? 22 A Yes. 23 Q And if you received $20,000.00, then he gave 24 up $20,000.00, that that would make a 50/50 split, is that 25 correct? 36 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ~ ~ A $25,000.00. Q $25,000.00 altogether, that's correct. So if you received 25,000, and he gave up 25,000, you would be even? A Yes. Q What you're asking for now is for him to give up $30,000.00 so you can wind up with $25,000.00, is that correct? A No. Q You're asking him to give up $25,000.00 in his 401K? A No, I'm not asking him to do that. I'm asking for the $20,000.00 that I understood in the terms of the agreement. I got 5000 of the 25 when he refinanced the house, but I expected to get another $20,000.00 not 16 after $4000.00 was deducted for taxes. Q I understand what you expected, but what you're asking this Court to do is, for him to take $25,000.00 out of his account and give that to you so that you would wind up with the 20,000 in cash? A I'm aSking the Court for the $20,000.00. Q How do you propose that be done? A I can receive the 16,000, and he can make-up the other 4. Q Which means that he would have to take 37 " 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 "" ~ $4000.00 out of his pocket in order to give that to you? A Right. Q Which, in essence, would have him give you $24,000.00, between the $20,000.00 from his account and the $4000.00 in taxes, for a total of 29,000? A No, I expected to get $20,000.00. Q I understand what you expected to get. I'm trying to get to the point where you negotiated a 50/50 split, and I'm trying to see how exactly you want that to come about? A I wanted him to refinance the house and pay me the $25,000.00 out of that refinancing of the house. He would only take the money out of his retirement. That was his decision. I cooperated. I even found out that I would have to wait up to a year in order to get the $20,000.00. But at no time did I think it would be any less than the $20,000.00. If I only get 16, and I only got 5 before, that's only $21,000.00, it's not 25. Q But you understand, you can get $20,000.00 retirement benefit as you referred to in the Qualified Domestic Relations Order? A I understand that. However-- Q But that's not what you wanted, is that what you're saying? A But this money is not just retirement money. 38 "'" ~ 1 This represents my share of the assets in the marriage. It 2 was his choice to take it out of the retirement account and 3 I-- 4 Q But you agreed to that? 5 A Yes, I agreed to it. 6 Q Okay. Now what I'm trying to understand from 7 you is how you're going to reserve a 50/50 split through a 8 proposal to this Court, if you can indeed modify the 9 agreement, as to how that is exactly going to take place 10 without disturbing the 50/50 split? Is it possible? 11 A Well, it will disturb the 50/50 split for one 12 or the other of us, that's true. 13 Q But the agreement was that it would be a 14 50/50 split? 15 A Yes. 16 Q You also indicated, you discussed with your 17 attorney at the time that you were looking for $25,000.00 in 18 cash. Was that actually mentioned at the time of the 19 four-party conference, that you wanted $25,000.00 in cash? 20 A Yes. 21 Q Or that you wanted $25,000.00 as your 22 interest in the house and pension fund? 23 A Yes, I was to receive $25,000.00 as my 24 interest in the joint assets. That was my share of the 25 assets. 39 ~ --- 1 Q And you understand, under the terms of the 2 401K, that Mr. Fulton has to wait for his benefits until the 3 time he's at least 59 and a half? 4 A Yes. 5 Q And you're not willing to do that? 6 A I would be willing to do that if this money 7 was solely my share of his retirement, but it is not. We 8 owned property together. I gave up virtually all the 9 property in the house. 10 Q And you agreed to that? 11 A And I agreed to that. But I expected to get 12 $25,000.00 not 21. 13 Q I believe one of your proposals as to how 14 this could be done is if he removed the cash himeelf and 15 pays you the 20,000? 16 A Yes. 17 Q That would require him to remove $25,000.00 18 from his account, is that correct? 19 A I understand that, yes. 20 Q with regard to personal property, under the 21 terms of our agreement, he was to make those deliveries to 22 your parents' house, is that correct? 23 A Yes. 24 Q You acknowledge, you did receive some of 25 those items? 40 1 2 ~ ~ A Some of them, yes. And it was not all -- the deliveries were not Q 3 made all at once, it was over that 60-day period, is that 4 correct? 5 6 A Yes. Q And the deliveries you did receive were to 8 7 your parents' house? 9 A Yes. Q With regard to the hutch which, I believe, is 10 Exhibit No.7, did you ever move that hutch to clean or 11 anything else around that area? 12 13 A Pushed it. It had rollers on it. Q Okay. So you were able to push it in order 14 to clean around that area and push it back to where it was 15 originally? 16 17 18 19 20 have. 21 22 A Yes. Q Okay. And you did that alone? A Yes. MR. JONES: Those are all the questions I THE COURT: Mr. Deily. MS. DEILY: One more. 23 REDIRECT EXAMINATION 24 BY MS. DEILY: 25 Q Rose, at the time you were negotiating the 41 lOt 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ~ ~ property settlement agreement, didn't you actually agree to receive less than a 50/50 share of the tallied items ae long as you received a cash settlement of $25,000.00? A Yes. Q Isn't it true that when all the property was added up, all the marital assets added up, you were actually entitled to a little more than the 25,000 on paper, but you had agreed to $25,000.00 as a net figure? A Yes. Q So the 50/50 split that you had talked about during my examination of you and then Mr. Jones' cross examination is what you basically agreed to settle for in an effort to resolve everything without going to a Master's hearing? A Yes. Q And also without having to go out for years and years on a payout A Yes. Q -- of that 25,000. Did you not consider or discuse at the time of the four-party conference that some of the funds, you could have received a higher amount of funds if Mr. Fulton would have paid you, say, over a three-year period or a five-year period? A Yes. Q And you had agreed to take the lesser than a 42 ""' ~ 1 50/50 split of 25,000 in order to be paid in a more 2 expeditious manner, is that correct? 3 A Yee. 4 Q Did it matter to you at that time how you 5 received the 25,000? 6 A No. 7 Q It didn't matter to you that you had to 8 cooperate in signing some bank documents in order to get the 9 5000 to refinance? 10 A No. 11 Q Did it matter to you that you had to execute 12 a QDRO if that was the means that it took for you to get 13 your $25,000.00? 14 A No. 15 Q Does it matter to you today how you received 16 that $25,000.00? 17 A No. 18 Q So the suggestions that you were making as to 19 whether we amend the QDRO or Mr. Fulton pays the funds out 20 of his pocket, you would just do again what was necessary to 21 cooperate to have you receive the $25,000.00? 22 A Yes. 23 Q Okay. Now briefly, will you just describe 24 your parents' porch? 25 A My parents' porch sits at least a foot and a 43 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ~ ~ half off the sidewalk, and I feel that in order for the hutch to have been delivered, and if it had been put on the front porch where all of the rest of the items were left, that it would take more than one person to lift the hutch, even if it was in two pieces. Q What kind of vehicle does Mr. Fulton drive? A He has a Ford truck. Q A pick-up truck? A Yes. Q Would it require somebody lifting up the hutch into the back bed of the truck? A Yes. Q Again, two people? A I would say so, yes. Q Again, to remove the hutch from the truck to put it on your parents' porch? A Yes. Q So having rollers on the bottom wouldn't help them? A Wouldn't help in lifting it, no. MS. DEILY: Okay. I have no further questions. THE COURT: MR. JONES: THE COURT: Mr. Jones. I have nothing further. Was there any reason that the 44 ~ ~ 1 property was not deliv~red to your home, wherever you 2 reside? 3 THE WITNESS: We've had some difficulties, he 4 and I. 5 THE COURT: So you didn't want him to come to 6 your home, and he didn't want you to come to his home? 7 THE WITNESS: Right. 8 THE COURT: okay. If there's nothing 9 further, you may step down. Thank you. 10 MS. DEILYI Your Honor, I have no further 11 witnesaee at this tims. 12 THE COURT: Do you want to move the admission 13 of some exhibits? 14 MS. DEILY: Yes, Your Honor, I will move for 15 admission of Exhibits 1 through 6. I did not present what I 16 had originally marked as Plaintiff's Exhibit No.3. That 17 was the Qualified Domestic Relations Order that I believe is 18 already in the record. So you will have a skip in numbers. 19 one and two, and then four, five, six, and seven. At this 20 time I would move for their admission. 21 THE COURT: All right. Mr. Jones. 22 MR. JONES: Exhibit 4, I have no objection 23 solely for the purpose of explaining why the Plaintiff 24 believes that there may be a problem. Obviously, it ie 25 hearsay, so as far as the truth of the matter. I believe 45 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ~ ~ that Exhibit 4 was introduced solely to explain your question as to what specifically the problem was that's arisen under the agreement. THE COURT: Is there some dispute as to the law? MR. JONES: No. I believe that it does adequately state what the situation would be should she decide to make a cash withdrawal from the account. THE COURT: MR. JONES: All right. And I believe also that the statement, as already previouely been excluded, the statement from the photograph in regard to the estimate for the repairs to the frame. I'm not sure which exhibit that is. That was Plaintiff's Exhibit 5. Five. And Plaintiff's Exhibit 6 was the THE COURT: MR. JONES: THE COURT: attorney's bill. MR. JONES: Right, which I also objected to. MS. DEILY: And Exhibit No. 7 was the picture of the hutch. That was the only copy that I had. THE COURT: Plaintiff's Exhibits 1, 2, 4, and 7 are admitted. (Whereupon, Plaintiff's Exhibits Nos. 1, 2, 4, and 7 46 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ~ ~ were admitted into evidence.) THE COURT: Plaintiff's Exhibits 5 and 6 are not admitted. MS. DEILY: THE COURT: rest? MS. DEILY: THE COURT: MR. JONES: Whereupon, Thank you, Your Honor. Okay. And does the Plaintiff Yes, Your Honor. Okay. Mr. Jones. I call Robert Fulton. ROBERT K. FULTON having been duly sworn, testified as follows: OIRECT EXAMINATION BY MR. JONES: Q For the record, could you please state your name? A Robert K. Fulton. Q And you are the Defendant in this matter, Mr. Fulton? A Yes, sir. THE COURT I Could we get your address for the record? BY MR. JONESI Q A And your address for the record? 1037 Wayne Avenue, Carlisle. 47 / rj ~ ~ 1 THE COURT: Thank you. 2 BY MR. JONES: 3 Q The Court permitted your wife to testify as 4 to the background leading up to the signing of the property 5 settlement separation agreement. Do you remember that 6 four-party conference? 7 A Yes, sir. 8 Q What was the discussion regarding the payout 9 to Rose from the property that had accumulated during the 10 marriage? 11 A The house was to be refinanced, and she was 12 to receive $5000.00 from the refinancing. 13 Q Was there a discussion at the four-party 14 conference regarding the $25,000.00 refinance? 15 A No, sir. 16 Q I'm sorry? 17 A No, sir. And the $20,000.00 was to come out 18 of my 401K plan at work, which was suggested by her counsel. 19 Q Did she agree to that? 20 A Yes. 21 Q Now under the terms of your 401K, do you know 22 when you're eligible to receive benefits? 23 A I'm not really sure. 24 Q Okay. Was there a discussion at the 25 four-party conference as to whether that $20,000.00 from the 48 I ~ ~ ~ 1 401K would be in cash or retirement benefit or what type of 2 discussions, if any, were there? 3 A There was no discussions as to how -- what 4 kind of money we was talking. There was to be $20,000.00 to 5 be from my 401K payable to her. 6 Q How do you recall, if you recall, the 7 $20,000.00 figure and the $5000.00 figure was arrived at? 8 A That was agreed upon as a result of the 9 divorce and as a result of the property settlement with her 10 counsel and John Weigel at the time. 11 Q Were the two of you looking for any 12 particular figure? I believe she mentioned the 50/50 13 figure. Is that what you were looking for? 14 A That seems to be what we was looking for, 15 yes. 16 Q In your calculations, with the $20,000.00 17 coming out of your 401K and the 5000 from the refinance, how 18 close to the 50/50 19 A That was it. That was it. 20 Q That was 50{50? 21 A (Witness nodded head affirmatively.) Along 22 with the personal items that we already talked about. 23 Q Implicated within the agreement that she 24 would take 20,000, and she would waive any interest that you 25 had in the remainder, is that correct? 49 ~ ~ 1 A (Witness nodded head affirmatively.) 2 Q And as far as coming to a 50/50 split, that 3 was considered to be your property? That was considered to 4 be -- the remaining portion of the pension was to be 5 considered your property? 6 A (Witness nodded head affirmatively.) 7 Q Do you have any idea what the tax 8 consequences would be if you were required to pay the taxes 9 on that property for Mrs. Fulton? 10 A No, sir, I have no idea. That is not my line 11 of work. I'm not an accounting type individual. 12 Q Are you in agreement that you should be held 13 responsible for that, for those tax consequences? 14 A No, sir. The deal was $20,000.00 out of my 15 401K. And, in my opinion, if she elects to have the money 16 as cash, and if the IRS says, that is taxble income, then 17 she should pay tax on it. It is her money, no longer mine. 18 Q But you're willing to transfer the 20,000? 19 ^ That was part of the ODRO, yes. 20 0 In regard to the personal property, there's 21 been much discussion regarding the hutch? 22 A Yes, sir. 23 Q Do you recall where that hutch was in the 24 house? 25 A It was in the, I guess we call it, the living 50 ~ ~ 1 room. 2 Q Okay. Was the hutch ever delivered to her 3 parents' house? 4 A Yes, sir. 5 Q Who delivered it? 6 A Me. 7 Q How did you deliver that? 8 A Pick-up truck. 9 Q I believe there was some indication that that 10 comes in two pieces, is that correct? 11 A Actually, three. 12 Q Three piecee. Did you deliver -- how many of 13 those pieces did you deliver? 14 A Well, there was two -- for that particular 15 item, it took two loads for three pieces. 16 Q Did you have any assistance as far as that 17 was concerned? 18 A No. 19 Q You were able to do it yourself? 20 A Yes, sir. 21 Q And where did you deliver those three pieces? 22 A The same location I delivered everything else 23 that was requested, and things that were not requested, that 24 was to her parents' residence. I was to offload and simply 25 drive away. 51 ~ ~ 1 Q There are other iteme such as a Fostoria 2 vase, a table that was in the basement, some toys, and eome 3 dishes that are also supposed to be missing. Do you recall 4 what happened to those? 5 A Everything on her list was delivered, with 6 one exception. There was a reference of a toy rifle. I 7 have yet to find it. I don't know where it's at. I never 8 delivered it. I can't find it. Everything on the list was 9 delivered plus several items that she apparently overlooked 10 on her list she also got. 11 Q How were those other items delivered? 12 A In the same manner, by me in my truck. 13 Q Was it approximately the same time? 14 A Well, initially when we came upon this 15 agreement, I had asked Roee to drop off some cardboard boxes 16 at my place for the purpoee of packing up some of her stuff, 17 which she did. She dropped a few off, not near enough. The 18 rest of them, I got from my employer. And over the time 19 period that I was allotted, I was a pretty buey boy on the 20 evenings and weekends, plus work, trying to comply with the 21 agreement. But, yes, they were all delivered within a -- 22 within the specified time of the agreement, with one 23 exception. 24 Q Okay. But of the items that she's indicated 25 are missing, the hutch, the vase, the table, and the dishes, 52 u') ~ ~ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 were those delivered in the same period of time or were they spread out? A Yes, eir. Q Are you aware of any event that was going on in the Bedford street area at that time that the hutch and those items were delivered? A After the fact, yes, sir. Q And what event was that? A By way of a neighbor reminding me that it was spring clean-up. There was a period in May whereby all the residents in the Borough put out their unwanted trash or whatever, and the Borough picks it up or the scavengers come up. Q And the hutch, you're saying, was put on the front porch? A Yeah. Well, it was offloaded in front of the house. Some items, depending upon the size of the load that I had on the truck, were on the porch. Some of them were on the curb. Q Okay. THE COURT: Some were on the curb? THE WITNESS: Yeah, a small porch will not hold everything that I had in one load. THE COURT: When you eay, the curb, you mean, they were just put on the sidewalk? 53 , '"" jl'\ 1 THE COURT: Okay. Ms. Deily. 2 CROSS EXAMINATION 3 BY MS. DEILY: 4 Q Mr. Fulton, do you recall at the time we had 5 the four-party conference Mrs. Fulton originally wanted 6 about $10,000.00 more than the 25,000 she agreed to, is that 7 correct? 8 A I don't recall that. 9 Q You don't recall that Mrs. Fulton came in 10 with a proposal to you and Mr. Weigel higher than what she 11 eventually agreed to, and then we did some negotiating from 12 there? 13 A We did some negotiating, but I'm not sure of 14 your figure of $10,000.00. 15 Q Okay. But you will agree though that Mrs. 16 Fulton wanted more than the $25,000.00 initially when the 17 four of us sat down? 18 A Apparently, yes. 19 Q Okay. And then she agreed after, you know, 20 an hour or eo of discussion to accept $25,000.00? 21 A She agreed to accept 5000 as refinancing ths 22 house and 20,000 from my 401K. 23 Q But initially, before we got into the 24 discussions of how we were going to come up with the 25 $25,000.00, 25 was the bottom-line, agreed-to figure, is 55 ~3 ~ ~ 1 that correct? 2 A Yes. 3 Q At any time did anybody say, well, this is 4 exactly 50 percent, and you get 50, or was it based on a 5 negotiation that Mrs. Fulton agreed to accept a little less, 6 you agreed to pay a little more than you had wanted to, and 7 you just arrived at that figure of what you considered to be 8 equitable? 9 A We arrived at that figure to be considered 10 equitable, yes. How we got there, I'm not really sure. 11 Q You will agree that Mrs. Fulton lowered her 12 expectations a little bit, and you must have increased yours 13 a little bit, to reach a negotiation? 14 A Well, during that period, we had -- I had 15 changed home owners insurance, and I believe it came to your 16 attention that I now had the place insured for a hundred 17 thousand dollars, which was a step up from what we had 18 initially had while we lived together, and I think that came 19 from you. 20 Q Okay. But then juet what I'm getting at is 21 then, at no point in the discussions did we ever say, well, 22 this is 50/50. We said, this was an equitable amount based 23 on what you two could agree upon that day so we didn't have 24 to go through a Master's hearing so we didn't have to pay 25 anymore attorney's fees, etc.? 56 ;<~ ~ ~ 1 A It was an agreement, yes. 2 Q okay. Now when we started to negotiate how 3 that $25,000.00 was going to be paid out, who brought up the 4 suggestion that only $5000.00 to be refinanced? 5 A Refinanced as part 6 Q From the house? 7 A The house? I'm not sure. I don't recall who 8 came up with that figure. 9 Q Do you recall Mrs. Fulton wanting as much as 10 possible of that money to come out of refinancing since she 11 did have some equity in the home? 12 A It seems to me that the -- I don't know how 13 we evolved at it, but we came up with the $5000.00 as part 14 of the remortgage of the house, but the 20,000 came from the 15 401K. How we all got there, I'm not sure. 16 Q You don't recall. Okay. Did Mr. Weigel give 17 you some advice as to say what your mortgage payment would 18 be if you had? 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 A He had no idea. Q He did not? A He had no idea. Q He didn't discuss anything? A Because I hadn't been to the bank yet at that point because I didn't know what it was. Q But what I'm arriving at is the -- you could 57 .~ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 have refinanced more than 5000, you had just agreed to 5000 at that point? A Well, actually it was more than that at the time the bank Q with your fees and costs? A Yes. THE COURT: Wait. You have to let each other finish your answers and questions or the record will be confused. BY MS. DEILY: Q Now at that time, how much money did you have in your 401K? Do you reoall? A I have no idea what's in there. I have a 6 percent deduction, payroll deduction. I've been with the company close to seven years. What that equates to, I don't know. Q I would tell you that from what your attorney provided me, it was worth about 42,000. You wouldn't dispute that? A I doubt very seriously if I've contributed 42,000. If you say so. I don't know. Q You at least had the 20 in your 401K? A I believe that to be, true, yes. Q So your attorney had agreed to prepare the QDRO based on some kind of an understanding with Blue Crosl 58 ~ ,.. 1 and Blue Shield that you had the funds in your 401K 2 sufficient to pay Mrs. Fulton? 3 A I think eo, yes. 4 Q okay. Now are you able to withdraw money 5 from your 401K? 6 A I don't think so. I don't know. 7 Q You never explored that possibility? 8 A No. 9 Q But there would be no reason to think that 10 you couldn't, the same way Mrs. Fulton could? 11 A I have no idea. 12 Q Now you had stated that you had delivered 13 items, personal property to Mrs. Fulton's parents' on 14 several different occasions? 15 A Numerous, numerous, numerous occasions. 16 Q Do you recall the date that you would have 17 eupposedly delivered the hutch? 18 A It would have been in the specified time 19 limits of the agreement. The exact date, no. 20 Q Well, can you pick a month? 21 A Well, the agreement wae from the 27th of 22 April, I believe. We had 60 days from that period forward. 23 Q That's correct. 24 A So April, May, to June. 2& Q But you don't recall what week in Mayor June 59 I~? ~ ~ 1 or April when it would be? 2 A No. 3 Q Do you know when spring clean-up was in the 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Q It's your testimony that you delivered the 12 hutch and other items on one particular day? 13 A No. 14 Q When did you deliver? 15 A Within the specified time limits of the 16 agreement. 17 Q I need a little more specificity? 18 A You have to understand, ma'am, there was more 19 than one pick-Up load of items that I delivered to her 20 parents' place. This occupied quite a bit of time. 21 Q Did you deliver the hutch as one of the first 22 items you delivered, one of the last -- 23 A Probably. 24 THE COURT: You have to let Ms. Deily finish 25 her question. What's the question? Borough of carlisle? A Not recalling, no, I don't. Q Do you live in the Borough? A No. Q You don't have spring clean-up where you are? A This past fall is the first time the TownShip had it that I'm aware of. 60 :z<{ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ~ ~ BY MS. DEILY: Q If he delivered the hutch as one of the first items of the deliVery or one of the last items of the delivery? A I don't recall. Q You're testifying that you did not seek any assistance getting anybody to help you out when you had that hutch delivered? A It wasn't necessary, no. Q You could pick up all the pieces on your own? A If you broke it down into three pieces, yeah, you can transport it. Q Were Mrs. Fulton's parents at home when you delivered the hutch? A I have no idea. Q Did you ever eee them at the home? A That was part -- TilE COURT: Wait. Let Ms. Deily finish her question. What was the question? BY MS. DEILY: Q Did you ever see Ms. Fulton's parents at home when you made any of your deliveries? A No. Q Did you Bee -- A The reason -- 61 I l 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 ~ ~ Q Go ahead. I'm sorry. A 'I'he reason being, it was agreed upon that I was to deliver her items, offload them in front of her parents' place, and drive away, because there was not to be any confrontation between me and her parents. Q You don't recall any dates when you would have delivered any of these other items? A within the specified agreement. Q other than that? You're sticking to that? okay. THE COURT: Was there an answer to that question? Are you sticking to that? Was that a question? MS. DEILY: Yes. THE COURT: And your answer is? THE WITNESS: Yes, I am. THE COURT: Mr. Jones. MR. JONES: I have nothing further. THE COURT: Okay. You may step down. Thank you. MR. JONES: THE COURT: And we would rest. Ms. Deily, any rebuttal testimony? MS. DEILY: THE COURT: Nothing further, Your Honor. Do counsel wish to make closing arguments? 62 /30 ~ ~ 1 MR. JONES I First item raised in the petition 2 deals with the items of personal property. It's clear that 3 Mrs. Fulton received several of ths items that are listed. 4 There was about 15 items listed there. Mr. Fulton testified 5 that he delivered those and that he also delivered other 6 items that he also found around the house that were hers but 7 weren't specifically set out in the agreement. 8 He indicated that he was able to move it by 9 himself despite what Mrs. Fulton's testimony was, and Mrs. 10 Fulton even indicated that it was on rollers and could be 11 moved for cleaning and certain items such as that. There is 12 no teetimony on the Plaintiff's behalf indicating that Mr. 13 Fulton still has possession of those items. The agreement 14 at the time was that he was to deliver them to a somewhat 15 neutral third party, that being her parents, so that there 16 would be no confrontation. 17 He testified that he did. There was no 18 testimony indicating that he didn't. He also gave a 19 reasonable explanation as to why those items were not 20 received by her after they became within the parents' 21 control due to a Borough clean-up or due to scavengers or 22 whomever. 23 But Mr. Fulton's obligation under the 24 agreement was to deliver those iteme to her parents' houee, 25 and the only testimony we heard so far is that he did 63 ~I ~ ~ 1 deliver those. So to that extent, he's fulfilled his 2 obligations under the agreement by providing those items as 3 well an the numerous items that actually were received by 4 Mrs. Fulton. 5 In regard to the value, if there is a 6 decision there that he may not have, again, the $1200.00 7 figure, as he testified to, was out of the air. He just 8 pulled a number out of the air, and he doesn't have any 9 experience at all in regard to the value. And so to that 10 extent, I hardly believe that is a valid valuation as far as 11 the value of the hutch. The eame with the other items. 12 There really is no value attached to them. 13 Obviously though, the most important item is 14 the 401K. And as Rose Fulton testified, when they sat down, 15 they were looking for a 50/50 split. If you now require Mr. 16 Fulton to take full responsibility for the tax coneequences, 17 clearly, that no longer is a 50/50 split. He is saddled 18 with tax consequences. That obviously is a consideration 19 under the equitable distribution scheme and, therefore, he 20 no longer gets the benefit of his bargain when he signed the 21 agreement. 22 Also, more importantly, I think the court has 23 real problems as far as trying to modify this agreement in 24 any way due to section 3105(c) under the Divorce Code or 25 under the Domestic Relations Code which indicates that, 64 J3X ~ --- 1 unless a contract says otherwise, or marital property 2 agreement says otherwise, the Court cannot modify it. And 3 that's exactly what I believe the Plaintiff is asking you to 4 do at this point, to go in, modify the agreement that both 5 parties signed, both parties eupplemented by a ODRO, 6 indicating that this was to be a pension benefit, both 7 documents of which were submitted to the Court and made a 8 part of the record. 9 The agreement is even made a part of the 10 decree. But to that extent, Mr. Fulton is ready, willing, 11 and able to give up the $20,000.00, but to ask him to give 12 up anything more than that totally upsets the apple cart as 13 far as this agreement is concerned. He is to give up 14 $5000.00, which he already did as far as equity in the 15 property. And the $20,000.00 from the balance of the equity 16 in the real estate and the pension, the retirement benefits, 17 he is waiting to do that. 18 Anything more than that, first of all, 19 violates the Domestic Relatione Code, but secondly, puts him 20 at a distinct disadvantage due to the fact that he was -- he 21 agreed to give up $20,000.00 from his pension, and that's 22 exactly what he's willing to do. To lock one in tax 23 consequences on top of that completely reforms the entire 24 agreement. As we said from the agreement, the agreement is 25 the agreement. 65 3 ~ A 1 The Domestic Relations Code does not allow 2 this Court to modify the agreement. And further, even if it 3 did, just looking at it fairly, he would be giving up mUch 4 more than he had agreed to in the agreement itself. To that 5 extent, I would ask that the relief requested by the 6 Plaintiff be denied. 7 THE COURT: Thank you, Mr. Jones. Ms. Deily. 8 MS. DEILY: Your Honor, as far as what my 9 client is seeking today, she is not asking you to modify the 10 property settlement and separation agreement, she's merely 11 asking you to enforce it. Paragraphs three and eight taken 12 together add up to the $25,000.00 that you heard testimony 13 from both parties that was the agreed-upon split for my 14 client's equitable share of the marital property. 15 My client initially said that they were 16 trying to arrive at a 50/50 split, but later both partieD 17 testified that there was some give and take to arrive at 18 that figure. At no time during the negotiations, during the 19 four-party conference was it ever assumed that it would be 20 an exact 50/50 split. As a matter of fact, the number that 21 was proposed by my client was higher than 25,000, not 22 surprisingly, and Mr. Fulton's offer was lower than that. 23 And then the partiee agreed to $25,000.00. 24 My client has done everything she needed to 25 do to cooperate to effectuate the $25,000.00 payout to her, 66 ~ ~ 1 which included signing the deed over to the property. It 2 also included executing some documents pursuant to his 3 mortgage requirement to refinance and to enter into a 4 Qualified Domestic Relations order, if that was the only way 5 that she could receive that property. 6 Again, she's not aSking that you modify the 7 property settlement agreement, but only enforce it, to give 8 her the $20,000.00 that she had agreed to waive the interest 9 in the marital house, the pension, and the 401K plan. Your 10 Honor may come up with a reasonable and most rational way in 11 order to effectuate that transfer, but the bottom line is, 12 still my client negotiated her $20,000.00, period. And I 13 think it's clear in the contract, or in the property 14 settlement agreement, that it says, husband shall pay to 15 wife the eum of $20,000.00, period. 16 And then it says that she would cooperate by 17 entering into a Qualified Domestic Relations order, Which 18 was prepared by Mr. Fulton's counsel and submitted to the 19 Blue Cross and Blue Shield people for their approval. At 20 the time of their approval, there were no tax consequences 21 discussed, and the first time my client heard about the 22 poseible tax consequences was in early October, six months 23 after the signing of the property settlement and separation 24 agreement. 25 She relied on the terms of the parties' 67 3j ~ ~ 1 settlement agreement to give her $25,000.00, and she ended 2 up fulfilling her end of the bargain by signing over the 3 deed to the house and waiving these other items. As far as 4 the personalty is ooncerned, Mr. Fulton can't give a date, 5 any date, can't give a month, can't give a week as to when 6 the personalty was returned. 7 It's my client's position that that property 8 is either being l'etained by Mr. Fulton or he destroyed it 9 himself. In any event, she was to receive those items. If 10 Mr. Fulton wants to argue that you can't allow any oral 11 testimony or any modifioation to the agreement because of 12 paragraph number 20, it says that he, that Mr. Fulton should 13 return the personal property to my client. 14 It was outside of the terms of the agreement 15 that the parties agreed that it should be returned to her 16 parents' home for the eake of having any confrontation. My 17 client knows she did receive some items. Again, some of 18 them are for sentimental value only and don't have that much 19 of a monetary value, and she clearly would like to have the 20 property returned to her. In the event that it is not able 21 to be returned to her, if it has been destroyed, if it has 22 been dissipated, if it has been given to somebody else, or 23 if Mr. Fulton retained it, then she would like the monetary 24 equivalent. 25 THE COURT: Thank you. We'll take a brief 68 f"\ ~ 1 recess, and then I'll enter an order. 2 (Whereupon, a recess was taken at 3135 p.m. 3 and proceedings reconvened at 3:47 p.m.) 4 THE COURT: This is a very difficult case, 5 but I've done the best I can with it.

DISCUSSION With respect to the interpretation of contrllcts, it has been said that "[t]he primary object in the interpretation of any writing is to asccrtain IInd ellectuate the intent of the parties. Wherc thc words of a contract are clear and unambiguous, its meaning is to be ascertained in accordance with its plainly expressed intent." Warrell v. Greellfleld. 407 Pa, Super, 600, 607, 595 A.2d 1308, 1312 (1991 }(citation omitted). "[A] written contract must be construed liS II whole and the Pllrties' intentions must be ascertained Irom the elltire Instrument ......Harrity v. Medical College of Pellllsylvallia Hospital. 439 PII. Super. 10, 21, 653 A.2d 5, 10 (1994). When the tenns of II written contract arc c1eur, [II court] will not rewrite it to give it II construction in conl1iet with the II N,T. 49. l6 N.T. 52. 17 [d. lHN,T,54, 12 Ij~ ~ --- accepted and plainmcaning ofthc languagc uscd. Converscly, when the language is umbiguous and the intention ofthe purties cannot be reasonubly uscertuined Irom the lunguuge of the writing alone, ... the udmission of orul tcstimony I is uuthorized I to show both the intent of the purties und the circumstunces uttending thc execution of the contruct. Id, ut 20-21, 653 A.2d at III (citutions omitted). "A contract Is ambiguous when it is reasonably cupuble of dillcrent interpretutlons." Morgall v. First Pemlsyll'allia Bank, 373 I'a. Super. 408. 416, 541 A.2d 380, 384 (1988). In accordance with thesc principles, the parol evidcnce rule generully "prohibits thc admission 01'01'01 evidencc to vary or contradict a writtcn conlract ...... HOl/se a/Pasta. IlIc. 1'. Mayo. 303 I'a. Supcr.298, 312. 449 A.2d 697, 704 (\982). Slated with more particularity, thc parol cvidcnce rule is as follows: The parol cvidcncc rule statcs Ihal. abscnt Iruud, accident. or mistakc, parol evidcnce of a prior or contemporaneous orul agreemcnt is not admissible to alter, vary. modify, or contradict temlS of a contruet which hus been rcduccd to an intcgrated written instrument. Kehr Packages, IIIC, v. Fidelity Balik, N.A., 710 A.2d 1169, 1172 (I'a. Super. Ct. 1998). "[Tlhe purpose of thc parol evidcnce rule Is to prescrve the integrity of written agrecments by refusing to pcnuit thc contructlng partlcs to uttempt to alter the import oftheir contract through thc usc of con tempo run co us oral declarations." lei. ul 1173. With rcspcct to thc credibility ofwltncsses, thc rule uppllcablc to cases where a court Is acting as the tricr oflnct is that "the triul court ... is thc sole determiner ofthc credibility ofwltncsscs. '111e Inct-Iinder is Iree to bclleve ull, purt, or nonc ofthe evldcnce ...... McClain 1'. McClain, 693 A.2d 1355, 1360 (I'u. Supcr. Ct. 1997), In thc prcscnt casc, in connection with thc $20,000,00 commltmcnt of Defcndunt, the partlcs' ugrecmcnt did not exprcssly address the Issue or Defcndunt's Inubility to produce from his 401 K plun a net sum 01'$20,000.00 without u withholding by the plan adl1linlstrutor \J J .1.5 ~ A of WI additional sum for taxes. It was, In the court's view, a contingency which had not been anticipated by the parties. Considering the agreement as a whole, the court was of the view that the basic Intent of the parties was that PlalntllT reccive the total Mun of $25.000.00 In settlement of her interest in the marital estate, and that the source ofthls money was Incidental to that purpose rather than detennlnative of It. 'Ille Jlllrol evidence which WllS received regarding the Pllrties' Intent did not serve to vary the tenns of the contract, but to con linn and effectuate the desired result. Nothing In the court's order purported to nile upon the tllX consequences of the transaction, and the order lIlTorded Defendant the option of providing the funds promised from any source. In connection with the personal property, the issue was basically one of credibility, which the court resolved In lbvor of PlalntilT. The valuation placed upon the hutch was consistent with the testimony of PllIintllT and an earlier statement by Defendant, and was based upon the best evidence which the parties presented on the subJec\. For the foregoing reasons, the court entered the order dated January 14, 1999, from which Defendant has appealed. Johnna J.

Deily Allorney at Lew 26 W. High Street Carlisle, PA 17013 Re: Fulton v. Fulton - Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QORO) Dear Ms. Deily: This is in response to your letter dated October 5. 199B regarding the tax traatment of the QORO benefilto be paid to Rose Fulton as the Alternate Payee of Robert Fulton. We are enclosing the following information for your reference: IRS Notice 97-11 IRS Publication 575. General Information - Qualified Domestic Relations Order Special Tax Notice Regarding Program Payments As indicated In the IRS Notice, a QORO cannot designate who will be liable for the taxes owed when retirement benefits are paid. Also, the Program's Special Tax Notice is enclosed which is based on the IRS safe harbor explanation of the information required by Internal Revenue Code Section 402(f). As the Program administrator, we are required to provide a written explanation to recipients of distributions eligible for rollover treatment. , Page 4 of the Special Tax notice provides that the rules that apply to payments to employees also apply to former spouses who are "alternate payees'. Under the IRS rollover rules that apply to employees and alternate payee's, certain distributions from qualified retirement plans are considered "eligible roltover distributions". If an eligible rollover distribution is paid directly to an alternate payee (and not rolled over to another qualified retirement program or individual retirement account (IRA)), then 20% of the amount Is to be withheld for taxes. Ms. Fulton should consult with a tax advisor before she elects to receive this distribution. In response to your October 5 leller, if Ms Fulton elects to have the QORO distribution paid directly to her and does not elect a direct rollover to a qualified plan or IRA, then 20% will be withheld and sent to the IRS to be credited toward her tax liability. Her payment will be BO% of $20,000 or a net payment of $16,000. Alternatively, If she elects a direct rollover of the QDRO distribution to a qualified plan or IRA, a payment of $20,000 will be made from the Program and /!J 7 I\PPENDIX A ~ ,-, ,..,., JUL 2 B .pO - ROSE M.

FULTON, : IN THE COURT OF COMMON PLEAS OF Plaintiff : CUMBERLAND COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA I vs. : NO. 95 - 6358 CIVIL : ROBERT K. FULTON, Defendant IN DIVORCE RE: Pre-Hearing Conference Memorandum DATE: Friday, November 21, 1997 Present for the Plaintiff, Rose M. Fulton, is attorney Johnna J. Deily, and present for the Defendant, Robert K. Fulton, is attorney John Wesley Weigel, III. A divorce complaint was filed on November 6, 1995, raising grounds for divorce of irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. It appears, at least at the present time, that the Defendant will not agree to a consent divorce under Section 3301(c); therefore, attorney Deily is going to file an affidavit under Section 3301(d) averring that the parties have been separated for a period in excess of two years, since November 1, 1995. The parties were married on September 10, 1976. There was one child born of the marriage, sandra, who is legally emancipated. She is living with the mother. The complaint that was filed also raised the economic claim of equitable distribution. No claime for alimony o~ ~mmsel and expenses have been raised by either party. A petition for counseling was filed on December 14, 1995, and Judge Bayley issued a rule to show cause. After that petition the parties did engage in counseling but the rule was never made absolute; there is no requirement that any report from the counselor be filed since the counseling was not orderod by the Court. Wife is 51 years of age and resides at 411 North Betord street, carlisle, Pennsylvania, in an apartment where she livee with the daughter. Wife is a high school graduate with some college credits. She currently works as a project coordinator for National Health Systems and reports an annual gross income of $36,500.00. Wife is not receiving any spousal support or alimony pendente lite. Wife has not raieed any health issues. Counsel for wife indicated that she believes her client has medical insurance coverage through her employment. Husband is 47 years of age and resides at 1037 Wayne Avenue, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, where he lives alone, He is a high school graduate and works as a HVAC technician for Capital Blue Cross. He reports his not monthly income at $1,910.00 and his gross income monthly at $2,930.00. Husband has not raised any health issuee, The parties own real estate at 1037 Wayne Avenue, Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Because the parties cannot agree on the value of the real estate, the Master directs that the property be appraised. Mr. Fulton is to allow access to an appraiser to be selected by the parties or if they cannot agree, by wife who is paying for the appraisal, The appraisal will be done within the next month. The property is subject to two mortgages, one in favor of Financial Trust corporation with a payoff as of August 17, 1997, of $35,747,00. The second mortgage is in favor of Dauphin Deposit Bank and Trust Company and the payoff as of August 13, 1997, was $9,976.00 Husband at separation had a savings and checking account at Member's 1st and counsel are going to attempt to agree on the amounts in those accounts. Wife had a savings account at Member's 1st of $2,647.62 at separation and a CD which represented her payout on her retirement from her prior employer which is currently worth around $11,000.00. Counsel should be able to establish the exact numbere in the accounts using statements that would be available around the date of separation. Attorney Deily has inquired about the eKistence of a joint checking account at Member's 1st although she has not provided any information as to any value for that account. Counsel are going to attempt to verify whether or not that account existed and what the date of separation value was in that account and who got the benefit of that account. Tho partioe reported three vehicles on the pro-trial statements. Husband is in tho possession of a Kawasaki motorcycle which both counsel agree has a value of $800,00. Husband has a 1993 Ford Ranger which has a value of $7,000.00 Which counsel will agree on but is subject to a lien. Mr. Weigel is going to determine the amount of that lien so we can get a net valUe for the Ford Ranger. Wife has a 1992 Ford Tempo and counsel agree that the value of that vehicle is $4,900,00. Wife's counsel brought a check to the conference today for $885.17 which was a refund of an unused escrow account and Mr. Fulton endorsed the chock so it could be placed in an interest bearing account pending the final resolution of this case. Husband is a participant in the capital Blue Cross Employees' Savings Plan, counsel are going to provide a etatement close to the date of separation and then counsel can apply an interest factor to add growth to the marital portion in that account from the date of separation to the date of hearing. Husband was also a participant in the Pennsylvania state Employee's Retirement system and counsel are going to attempt to arrive at a value for that pension. If they cannot agree, then the pension will be valued by an expert to establish the date of hearing value, Apparently, according to counsel, husband made no contributions to that account following the date of separation of the parties. with respect to the household tangible personal property, wife has provided a list of items which she would like to have returned to her. Both parties are going to attempt to agree on a distribution of the property and then counsel can determine if they need to have the property valued if there is some question as to whether or not a value for each of the parties should be used in the equitable distribution computation. There is a question as to the value of a gun collection which husband has. Husband's counsel has indicated that husband claims most of the collection was either premarital or was acquired as a result of gifts to him from family and friends. In any event, even if we have a finding that a number of the guns were nonmarital we still have an increase in value issue. The only marital debts reported on the pre-trial statements were the two mortgages and a comment about a credit card. After review with counsel it was determined that wife has paid around $250.00 in marital debt since the date of separation for which she would be entitled to some credit, Those charges were made on a Visa account, Mastercard account, and a Bon-Ton account. . . A hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, March 24, 1998, at 9100 a.m. Notices will be sent to counsel and the parties. E. Robert Elicker, II Divorce Master CCI Johnna J.
