The Department of Public Welfare refers cases in which the plaintiff receives public assistance to Family court through PACSES, the statewide child support computer system. The automation of these referrals, which were previously accomplished by the use of paper "643" forms, relieves the congestion at the courthouse and in the Intake Unit which used to occur when plaintiffs were required to appear in person with these forms.  The 643 Filing Unit is charged with the review and processing of these forms, including the filing of Complaints for Support.

Conference Officers under Pa. R.C.P. 1910.12, et seq., conduct pre-trial conferences in support and paternity cases if no agreement for support is reached at the conference, or if the defendant fails to appear, the Conference Officer enters an interim support Order based on the Support Guidelines as allowed by Pa. R.C.P. 1910-12 (b)(1), (2).

Child and Spousal support cases have three components: 1) establishment of paternity; 2) determination of the support obligation; and 3) enforcement

Paternity: For children born out of wedlock, establishment of paternity is the first step toward determining the child support obligation. Paternity can be established in one of four ways: 1) voluntary acknowledgement of paternity; 2) genetic testing; 3) default paternity establishment; and 4) in-hospital voluntary paternity establishment.

Obligation: In determining support obligations the amount of support - child support, spousal support, or alimony pendente lite (suspended by the lawsuit or in effect until the outcome of the case is determined) - is awarded pursuant to procedures under the Rules of Civil Procedure and determined in accordance with support guidelines.

Enforcement: Support orders are monitored through the Pennsylvania Automated Child Support Enforcement System (PACSES) for payments. Efforts are taken to encourage compliance as soon as the order is entered. If necessary, progressive enforcement remedies are taken. When accounts become delinquent, payors may be scheduled for Enforcement Conferences, Contempt Conferences, or Judicial Contempt Hearings, depending on the circumstances or the severity of the delinquency. The underlying objective of the enforcement process is to compel payment, and encourage ongoing compliance.

NOTE: Pursuant to Administrative Regulation 94-2 and Federal Mandate, as contained in the Child Support Amendments of 1984, all Orders for income attachment in child or spousal support cases may be administratively increased by 35% of the current support order as payment toward arrears.

Utilizing the Buccal Swab Specimen Collection, Orchid Cellmark provides genetic testing services to the Family Court.  All samples are collected at 1501 Arch Street - 9th Floor. The cost of this genetic study test is $30.00 per person.  Usually, payment for genetic test costs is not determined until the Court hearing.  If the putative Father is excluded, payment may not be required.  If he is found to be the father, payment for the test is assessed at disposition.

BUCCAL SWAB SPECIMEN COLLECTION
This collection procedure is non-invasive, i.e., the body is not pierced by any instrument.  The instrument used to collect a buccal swab is a cotton or Dacron^TM.  The procedure involves gently stroking the lining of the inner cheek (buccal mucos) with the applicator.  The tissues collected on the swab arebuccal epithelial cells that are continually shed as a normal physiological process and are normally present in saliva.  These cells contain the DNA required to perform parentage testing.   Typically we collect four swabs from each individual in a case, two are used for initial testing which is usually adequate to finish a case, and the remaining two are stored indefinitely.

• There are no age restrictions on individuals from whom specimens are to be drawn.  Currently, buccal swabs are used on one-day-old infants as part of in-hospital acknowledgement programs.
• Because some reciprocal jurisdictions may not currently utilize Buccal Specimen Collection, it may be necessary to collect blood specimens in reciprocal cases.

If a support complaint or petition is not resolved at the pre-trial conference, either or both parties may request that it be listed for a hearing before a Support Master. Under certain circumstances a case can also be "remanded" to the Master by a judge after a court hearing on exceptions (see below).

All Support Masters are licensed attorneys who conduct record hearings (by audio-recording) at which the parties are sworn in and present to the Master evidence, testimony and documentation to support their positions regarding the support order. At the conclusion of the hearing the Master prepares a "proposed order," which is the Master's recommendation to the court as to what the final order should be.

Issuance of the proposed order starts a twenty day period during which either or both sides may file "exceptions" to the proposed order. Exceptions is a document in which a party specifies the mistakes of law, fact or procedure that the party believes were made by the Master in the report and proposed order and/or during the hearing.

DURATION OF HEARINGS: NORMAL, SEMI-PROTRACTED, AND PROTRACTED LISTINGS

Depending upon the facts of the case a Support Master hearing may be scheduled for a "normal" listing of forty-five (45) minutes or a "semi-protracted" listing of ninety (90) minutes.

Pursuant to Pa.R.C.P.1910.12 (c)(1), a "protracted" listing longer than ninety minutes may be requested by filing an appropriate motion with the Clerk of the Family Court, 1133 Chestnut Street, First Floor.
