:
No. 43 In Adoption 2020
TO: ANTHONY JAMES WITHERS
At the instance of ADOPTION BY CHOICE, the petitioner in the above case, you,
ANTHONY JAMES WITHERS, laying aside all business and excuses whatsoever,
are hereby cited to be and appear before the Orphans’ Court of Erie County,
Pennsylvania, at the Erie County Court House, Court Room No. 214-D, the Honorable
Erin Connelly Marucci, City of Erie, Pennsylvania, on February 9, 2021 at 1:30
p.m., and then and there show cause, if any you have, why your parental rights
to Baby Girl W., born June 11, 2020 at Saint Vincent Hospital, Erie, Pennsylvania,
should not be terminated in accordance with the Petition For Involuntary
Termination Of Parental Rights filed November 17, 2020 and Amended Petition
For Involuntary Termination Of Parental Rights filed January 14, 2021 at the above
term and number. The Amended Petition alleges you, by conduct continuing for a
period of at least six (6) months immediately preceding the filing of the petition,
either have evidenced a settled purpose of relinquishing parental claim to the child
or have failed or refused to perform parental duties. You hereby are notified that
the Confirmation of Consent of the Natural Mother of Baby Girl W. will take place on
February 9, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. before the Honorable Erin Connelly Marucci.
Your presence is required at the hearing. You are warned that if you fail to
appear at the hearing to object to the termination of your rights or fail to file a
written objection to such termination with the court prior to the hearing, the
hearing will go on without you and your rights may be terminated without you
being present.
If it is your intention to contest these proceedings you, or your attorney, are
further directed to immediately notify the Family/Orphans’ Court Administrator,
Room 205, Erie County Court House, Erie, PA 16501 or at (814) 451-6251.
You have the right to be represented at the hearing by a lawyer. You should
take this paper to your lawyer at once. If you do not have a lawyer or cannot afford
one, go to or telephone the office set forth below to find out where you can get

NOTICE REQUIRED BY ACT 101 OF 2010: 23 Pa.C.S. Sections 2731-2742. This is to

law. Act 101 of 2010 allows for an enforceable voluntary agreement for continuing

voluntary agreement is approved by the court. The agreement must be signed
and approved by the court to be legally binding. You have the right to consult an
attorney concerning your post adoption contact agreement rights. If you do not
have an attorney, you can ask for assistance through the Lawyers’ Referral Service or
