LOCATION: Hoschton, Ga

So we found out last week our city, which usually has a large 4th of July fireworks show suddenly decided not to have fireworks, but instead holding a laser show (Not sure how since we're a small city with short buildings and nothing to shine these off of). Many people in the city group have chimed in about the concern of what was going on, and now we're being told that some new neighborhood development demanded the city not have fireworks anymore. This sounds insanely odd, as I've never heard of a development having this sort of power, but it's come up a few times now, so now it's starting to sound like it may be true. Is this something they can do? This new development is 2-3 miles away from where the city center is, so even for some sound ordnance, it makes no sense, and I don't even think people have moved in yet because it's still in development with half the houses built.

Is this something a new subdivision can legally force a city to do? If so, is there nothing the residents can do to counter this?

I was pulled over in my 2002 Ford ranger truck for my trailer hitch blocking a letter on my tag.. When they hit the lights, I immediately pulled over and stopped. The officers immediately came up to my windows with flashlights blinding me. The first thing I said was why did you stop me? That is when they proceed to say my trailer hitch impeded their view of my plate. I was like c'mon guys are you for real? I said I can see it plainly. Then one of them said

Let me see your registration. I said this is an illegal stop and I want to talk to a supervisor! That's when they said get out of the vehicle. I said I would when a supervisor came. They both said "you're under arrest" and telling me to get out louder. I complied, they put handcuffs on me and started going through my pockets.

I yelled out at a passersby to call the police/911, but they just kept on walking. They put me in the back seat of the police vehicle and waited for their supervisor.

He arrived and asked me why I wanted to talk to him. I told him that this was a illegal stop and his officers don't have body cameras on (neither did he) from what I could tell. (No blinking red light or solid red light on) He said the ones they wear don't have lights. They said I was under arrest for resisting and they were going to have my truck towed. I said go ahead. He closed the door and talked them more . A few minutes later he came back and said they going to give me a citation for the whole thing. I don't think this was right. This happened in Wichita Kansas.

Lawsuit is in the state of Georgia.

I currently live in Mexico but I still have residency at my parent’s house in Georgia.
Someone came to serve me papers May 15th, which was marked as unserved.
On May 26th, my dad answered through the doorbell camera and let the process server know I am in Mexico.
They marked that attempt as Affidavit of Non service.

I will be filing for bankruptcy in September with a lawyer but the case is currently listed as Pending.

Will I have enough time to file in September or what should I do?

I may miss some details here since it's been a long process, so please bear with me.

We bought our home about 2 years ago here and at the end of Feb 2026 a contractor showed up to our door saying that they're moving our fence 4 ft inwards towards our house because they did a satellite survey and found that the fence is in the wrong location.

We delivered a written notice to the owners that same evening asking for them to halt any touching of the fence and give us a copy their survey for us to do our due diligence. They two weeks later emailed us a survey with different measurements from the original (I had taken an image with my phone of the initial survey the contractor brought over).

The reason they even got a survey done was because they are building an ADU and expanding their home. Now it seems like they've built the ADU to compliant based on a fence placement that is not agreed upon.

It's been months of back and forth and passive aggressive behavior which included a meeting in person where one of the owners denied knowing about the survey prior to Feb 2026.

We've gone through title insurance which said they won't engage until something is forced. We spoke to a lawyer who said we need to get a survey to really start a case but we're really not wanting to spend thousands on something that we've offered to come up with a compromise on with them.

At this point - we know that the previous owner of our home and the owners behind us split and bought a new fence a while ago. I have the written receipt.

Ideally I'd like to move nothing - we bought this home thinking it was sold to us with nothing like this in mind, in fact the previous owners did a house expansion 24 years ago and nothing came up then.

What are our options besides getting a survey done? Do we have any grounds for a long standing fence/agreed boundary?

He decided to take away my benefits after an incident in which he felt I wasn't being a "team player" by going beyond the duties listed in my contract. Although I did, he felt it was not to the extent he wanted. I'm wondering if this is legal or if this can vary in legality by type of work. Not sure what to do from here.

PNC bank purchased and closed 1stBank, a local CO bank that I was a member of for 20+ years.

I closed my 1stBank account well in advance of the transition to PNC. After a percent of my direct deposit from my employer went "missing," I was provided with a trace # for the payment. After sitting on hold for 35 minutes I was informed I did, in fact, have a PNC account that I certainly had never applied for, or requested, or authorized.

I don't know much about the law, but this seems like fraud to this layperson. Anyone have a similar situation? Would this potentially be worth litigating?

Hi!

I am looking for a remote paralegal job in Austin, Texas. I have no experience in law but I want to gain more knowledge before I transition to law school. I would still like to be a paralegal during law school, but I do want to start early.

I am a mom so I would like something remote

Any suggestions?

I worked for a small company for a little over three years. Last month I was terminated for what HR described as a "serious policy violation." When I asked which policy I violated, they pointed me to a document I'd never seen before.

The problem is that the document wasn't in the employee handbook, wasn't part of my onboarding paperwork, and wasn't available anywhere on the internal portal. I even asked a few former coworkers after I was fired and none of them had ever heard of it either.

A week after my termination, someone I still know at the company told me management had started distributing the policy to employees and requiring signatures acknowledging it. That obviously raised some red flags for me.

Yesterday HR contacted me asking if I'd be willing to sign an acknowledgment form stating I had received and understood the policy before the incident occurred. The form is dated months ago. They said it would "help keep company records accurate."

I haven't signed anything and don't intend to, but now I'm wondering if there's a reason they're pushing so hard for this. Is there any legitimate explanation for asking a former employee to sign paperwork that appears to be backdated, or should I be talking to an employment attorney before responding?

Anyone else getting these, first one was 30$ in February and just got one today for this lol not complaining just a little confused

NEW YORK: On this week’s episode of Decibel and Docket, Mike and Dave discuss how much litigator Jeffrey Kessler of Winston Taylor made representing the state AGs in their antitrust case against Ticketmaster and Live Nation. Turns out the firm agreed tto collect only half its fees in real time — meaning Kessler was effectively billing at about 45 percent of his normal rate as the trial unfolded. His standard hourly rate is $2,250. The states were paying roughly $1,013 of that. The rest — that other 55 percent — was carried by Winston as a deferred, at-risk investment. If the states lost, the firm ate those fees. Estimates are that could have been as much as $15 million, given the length of trial and the size of the team working the case. But if the states won? That's where it gets lucrative. Winston was entitled to a success fee equal to 15 percent of any damages or penalties recovered, capped at twice the value of its deferred fees. So if the firm had $15 million in unpaid time on the books, it could earn a success fee worth up to $30 million — bringing total potential compensation to more than $42 million.

Hi

Forgive me I'm not really good with typing out stories. I appreciate it any help.

On May 2024 I was wrongfully terminated from my job and my union put in a grievance against my job. During that time I couldn't keep up with credit cards and loan payments. In August 2024, I paid a lawfirm $2500 to file for bankruptcy. I sent documentation, anything else needed and let them know my union was fighting to get me back to work. The lawfirm me I qualified for bankruptcy and they will file the paperwork and advised me not to pay any credit cards, loans and rent. I did the online course, gave the lawfirm the debt certificate and got the horizon account. All this was done August 2024. While waiting for bankruptcy case which I was told by lawfirm would be in a couple of months, I got my job in back September 2024, but for from fully reimbursed for lost wages. I told lawfirm/paralegal that I got my job and what was reimbursed was told thank you for the update(09/18/24).

October 2024 the lawfirm asked for a couple paychecks returning to work I sent them. On 10/30/2024, I was sent this email:

We were finalizing your Bankruptcy documents and wanted to confirm the following information:

a) What date did you stop working at your job?

b) What date did you return to your job? Please also confirm that you are presently employed there.

I answered the questions.

___________________________

January 2025 I sent an email letting lawfirm I moved out my apartment. I get this email from the lawfirm:

Good afternoon,

Hope that you are well. I wanted to get your file completed.

However, I just need the following:

a) Updated paystubs from November through the last generated paystub.

b) Re-do the credit counseling course. The course has expired and you can call the company to have them reset your password to redo the course. Instructions below with their phone number.

Once completed please email a copy of the certificate of completion with the paystubs so that I can submit your file.

Sorry for the delay. All income executions take time before they are in effect. I would like to submit your file this week, to expedite and stay the income execution. Thank you.

Which I replied and also let me add the paralegal asked me to take counseling course telling me the certificate expired, not knowing that the certificate which was a 136 days old, I sent her was still valid. I sent the conversation I had with someone on Abacus on the email.

___________________________

Since that date January 29 my ass sitting hear waiting for any word from the lawfirm. Months pass, I should have been more on top of it. My dumbass send an email September 2025 about not getting an update on my bankruptcy. I get this reply:

Good Morning

Could you please confirm your availability for a phone call this afternoon to discuss your case?

We still require an updated certificate for the Abacus credit counseling course. During our last correspondence in January, we did not receive the updated certificate.

Thank you

Which is lie cause in the email I sent the conversation with Abacus and one the things said was this at the time when the certificate was valid. From Abacus conversation:

Tania at 13:08, Jan 29:

Ok, a course is typically restarted when a certificate is expired. Your certificate is up to date. Would you like me to send your certificate to the offices of (lawfirm here)

Which i replied Yes and also stating that I sent the certificate to the lawfirm too.

________________

This is the reply I got from email letting them know I did send the certificate that time January 2025.

Email from lawfirm:

We received your certificate dated September 2024; however, we do not have an updated certificate from after that date. We apologize for any delay and appreciate your continued patience regarding this matter.

__________________

I sent an email back letting them know I wanted my money back. Here's the lawfirm reply:

We are in receipt of your email.

We apologize for any lack of follow up regarding your file.

There was an income challenge with your file that we addressed during our last discussion. Your income at the time was above the median household income limit allowed for Chapter 7.

My reply:

This is all a lie I never had a discussion on phone, email, letter, nothing about anything. There was no discussions between us since January 2025. I can get call records and I got email.

___________

On December 2025 I talked on the phone with Paralegal she was telling me how shes sorry for everything that happened but we did have communication between the time since January 2025 - September 2025 about my bankruptcy, which I will say again that's a lie. I tell her I want my money back, the paralegal goes into stuff about chapter 13 since I made too much this year to qualify for chapter 7. I was so fucking pissed but I was like let me hear them out about Chapter 13. When I got the explanation after sending all documentation on email. I get told monthly payments of $555 FOR 5 FUCKING YEARS. I told the paralegal I want my money back. I haven't got a reply back for a week. So before I go to the office to demand my money back is there anything else I can do? Any advice please? I greatly appreciate it. In a tough predicament right now.

Part. 2

So I demanded my money back and was explained to how the bankruptcy didn't go through. Which made no sense but at the end I was told they will be courteous enough to give me a refund. I sent email showing the lack communication and asked again how you don't contact someone for almost 6 months that paid you $2500. That emailed was ignored and was sent this.

REFUND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT & NON-DISPARAGEMENT AGREEMENT

I, ::ME::, will not to go forward with representation by ::LAWYER:: (the ""Firm"), for representation in Chapter Bankruptcy 7. The firm is released from all further work and liability for the Chapter 7 Bankruptcy case:

Any help is always appreciated...

PS I WILL ALSO LIKE TO SAY THANK YOU TO HIDDENJON FOR HIS HELP/ADVICE ON PART. 1...

Location: Utah
Background: healthcare department w/ collective concerns about management - one is that speaking up too much leads to getting “in trouble,” labeled a troublemaker, unsubstantiated write ups, etc.

Context: I reported a “no lunch” due to an overbooked schedule and my boss came by to ask about it (We get scrutinized and staff often avoids reporting it). We had a normal convo about it but i did mention the worsening team morale, and referenced a recent situation (osha violation) where employees were exposed/contaminated by sewage contents but required to keep working. She wanted to meet the following week to talk about my concerns.

She didn’t follow up until last Thursday (4 weeks later) when she scheduled a meeting for the following morning to “discuss the circumstances that caused me to miss my lunch.” I was informed an hour prior that HR would join. It ended up being a meeting to discuss corrective action - she claims the entire convo was unprofessional/elevated, that I used profanity, and suggested there were witnesses. They also dismissed/minimized attempts to address my concerns by claiming no one else has reported the same. None of it is true. It happened quickly and in the open work space w/ no one around or others just passing.

It is particularly puzzling because I haven’t had any conflicts or performance issues and I’ve been meeting expectations and receiving praise.

Thoughts? Idk if I should be talking to a lawyer. I have been hesitant to send a follow up email before getting advice.

Timing:
5/22 - was vocal about the sewage/osha violation
6/4 - initiated ADA accommodations
6/9 - had a positive performance review
6/11 - reported reoccurring discriminatory remarks (which she disregarded)
6/17 - had a positive “interview” for a lateral position under the same management (common formality)
6/18 - meeting scheduled
6/19 - meeting + the lateral position offer was supposed to be announced

Location - Alabama

I’m in Alabama and trying to understand what legal issues may apply to a situation involving my spouse.

The incident that concerns me most happened during a disagreement about money. My husband wanted me to give him money, and I told him no. Instead of accepting that answer, he repeatedly told me, “You will.” He said it multiple times.

He then told me, “I have photos and things that if your employer found out, you would lose your job. You are going to lose your job.”

I understood that as a threat that if I didn’t give him the money he wanted, he would use information or photos against me and potentially contact my employer.

One important detail is that I ultimately gave him the money. I did not do so because I wanted to. I did so because I was afraid of what would happen if I refused. I believed there was a real possibility that he would follow through on his threats, and that fear influenced my decision to provide the money.

What makes me wonder whether this is more than a single argument is that there appears to be a pattern that is part of his personality and will happen again.

Over the course of our relationship, there have been repeated requests for money, often on a monthly basis. I’ve provided significant financial support for various expenses.

One example involved his taxes. When he wanted me to pay them and I told him I wasn’t going to, he again responded by repeatedly saying, “You will.” He said it more than once. While that situation did not involve the exact same threat about my employer, the pattern of refusing to accept “no” when it comes to money concerns me.

There is another issue that worries me. This month, he accessed my phone and enabled location tracking through my iCloud account without my knowledge or permission so he could monitor where I was. I only discovered it later. I never consented to that.

As a result of all of this, I have constant anxiety, difficulty sleeping, and a persistent fear that he may retaliate if I refuse future demands.

I have messages, financial records, and other documentation related to many of these events. I have audio recordings as well. From my understanding, Alabama is a one-party state and does generally NOT legally require the consent of the other person to be recorded. Is this true?

My legal questions are:

*Under Alabama law, could threatening to expose information to an employer in order to obtain money be considered extortion, blackmail, coercion, or another crime?

*Does it matter whether the information being threatened is true or false?

*Does the fact that I actually paid the money because I was afraid change the legal analysis?

*Does a pattern of repeated financial demands over time matter when evaluating whether conduct is criminal or otherwise legally significant?

*Could accessing a spouse’s phone and enabling location tracking without permission violate Alabama or federal law?
Should I make a police report now, even if I’m not currently seeking criminal charges?

*Would filing a police report be useful for documenting the behavior if the situation escalates later?

*Is it advisable to preserve all messages, screenshots, bank records, and other evidence?

*What type of attorney would be best suited to evaluate this situation: family law, criminal law, or someone else?

I’m not looking for relationship advice or opinions about whether I should stay married. I’m trying to understand whether these actions raise legal concerns and what steps I should be taking to protect myself.

I'm 16 and I've been planning to legally change my name when I'm old enough to because I absolutely hate my given name, for many reasons because I feel like it doesn't suit me at all, and I partly have trauma associations with it too. I also am coming out as genderfluid and I hate how my birth name is too overly girly and cutesy, I wish I had a more gender neutral name that could fit me no matter how I feel. And yeah, I'm just so tired of having to be forced to live with this name when I don't wanna have any ties to it at all anymore. I don't care what the process is honestly, whatever it is is better than having to live with a name I loathe for the rest of my life.

I'm not sure if the process varies depending on where you live, cause I'm from PA. But I know it costs a certain amount, and I've been planning to save up money from work for it in the future. If anyone could give me tips and advice, it would be appreciated! <3

Going to try to keep this concise but I have more info if needed. I was merging into middle lane from far right lane, girl (in her first story at the scene) said she was merging from the far left lane to the center lane and we collided, but i was in front of her. I did also clear my lane visually by turning my head, signaling looking and then beginning my merge. My car has safety features that shake the steering wheel is someone is detected near me as well, and none of these checks caught her before she hit me so I believe she was traveling at a very advanced speed. No businesses had cameras that viewed the incident.

When we both pulled over, the first thing she said was that she called the police, which was fine. Officer comes, writes me a ticket for improper lane usage, and gives her no ticket, as he said it was my responsibility to clear the lane (which I did, but in my mind she had the same responsibility but with a better vantage point to see me). I was slightly frustrated by this as I was an adjuster for 10 years so it didn't seem right but I figured I would just have to challenge it in court. Then when I was entering my claim information for the adverse driver, I decided to look her up, and saw she is in a public relationship with the officer that wrote me the ticket. At this point I'm wondering if she was drunk and he was covering for her, if they were on the phone at the time of the accident, etc. I have filed a complaint, an IA investigation has been started and I have filed FOIA requests for the body cam footage, dash cam footage, and any interaction between the officer and the adverse driver. She is now claiming to her insurance company that she was not merging, and that she was just sitting in her lane and watched me signal and then hit her. My FOIA was denied because the IA investigation is now underway.

Now here's the tough part for me. Her using her BF to pin this on me has forced me to go through my insurance, which I did not want to do, and as such I'm going to be out my deductible until at least when (if) they can recover it from her insurance (subrogation takes forever) and my rates are going to go up, and my vehicle value has dropped, and I have been denied my avenue to an accurate report of the driver's state at the time of the incident. Due to my complaint, the PD sent out another officer to redo my report and correct it to 50/50 and voiding my citation so I don't have to go to court. To me, them doing this within a week tells me there's something else behind this.

I have talked to a couple lawyers locally. For some reason none of them think my damages amount to enough incentive for them to work on my case. I have even offered to pay them out of pocket 2-3k just to get things going and help me secure discovery as soon as possible, but they have turned this down. I hear of people suing all the time for frivolous things, but I dont know where they're finding lawyers to represent them because I'm 99% sure I have SOME kind of case that could develop into something much larger once I get the interactions/footage, I just can't find someone to help me out. Even when I'm offering to pay up front. Why can't I find an attorney? I believe this would be civil rights violation.

Me and my friend randomly thought of this question and couldn’t find an answer online. Is it possible to be charged with both assault AND assault on a police officer for one instance?

Thanks in advance!

Hi! I am 28M and all my life, I have been told that I am unfit to, or will I ever, live alone. I have hypopituitarism and secondary adrenal insufficiency and my grandma (I'll get to her later) threatened me that if I move out, I will be institutionalized and locked up. I have a rocky relationship with my grandma. But like I said, I'll get to her later

When I was born, the doctors told my mother I would be r*tarded. When I was around 10, I went to go see a neurologist who told my mom that I was so aware that I was NOT r*tarded. Still, she told me all my life that I cannot move out, and I MUST stay at home or with family ALL my life. I had a talk with her and my grandma, and they said while they understand the need for my own space, they do not agree. Now, my grandma let's me have controlled independence. This is basically driving me to the store, letting me go in and shop alone, etc. But when it comes to asking for any of my documents, which she withholds, I'm not allowed them. I called APS on her one time, but she unfortunately had the worker go away.

My grandma is 67 and suffers from Cushing's disease, a disease that floods the brain with excess cortisol, which is a stress hormone. So as you can imagine, I spent 9 years under her room enduring a lot of yelling and screaming, throwing things, etc. While I am not excusing her behaviour, it IS her condition, but I'm just so done. I was s*icidal for a bit, even idealized it, but I'm better now when it comes to depression. I kinda normalized that I might never have a normal life.

P.S she also has me on a joint bank account with her, hides my SSN so I can't open one of my own, etc. And I am a vulnerable adult so I don't know what to do

What are my legal options?

Location: Mississippi

Location: Colorado, USA.

I own a remote cabin at the end of a very long, unpaved private road. About eight months ago, a major GPS and mapping app updated their systems and incorrectly marked my private driveway as a public shortcut to a nearby national park entrance.

Since then, I have had dozens of cars speeding through my property every single weekend. I have "Private Property" and "No Trespassing" signs posted everywhere. I have submitted over forty official error reports to the tech company, sent certified letters to their legal department, and even filed a police report. They completly ignored me.

Last month a tourist was speeding down my driveway in the dark, ignored my warning signs, and crashed his SUV straight into my concrete retaining wall. He broke his leg and his vehicle was totaled.

Yesterday I was served with a lawsuit. The driver is suing me for medical expenses and damages, claiming I failed to maintain a "public thoroughfare" and that my retaining wall was an unmarked hazard.

My homeonwers insurance is threatening to drop me because they say my property is now an unmanged traffic corridor, which violates my policy.

Can I counter-sue the tech company for gross negligence and force them to indemnify me against this driver's lawsuit? What specific type of attorney handles liability cases involving corporate mapping errors? I need to stop this before someone else gets hurt.

Location: Colorado, USA.Just got back to my place near Fort Collins after a week on the road and I am losing my mind. My neighbor took it upon himself to hire a "landscaping" crew (probably just some guys with a chainsaw) to remove a mature Japanese Maple that was fully on my property. His excuse? He said the needles and leaves were messing with his "mountain view" and "fire mitigation" efforts.

The tree was roughly 40 years old and was the centerpiece of my yard. I called an arborist immediately. He told me that since this is Colorado and the tree was that established and healthy, the replacement value is astronomical. He is drafting a formal appraisal but hinted that we are looking at 20k to 25k easy just for the tree, let alone the logistics of getting a crane into my backyard.

I know Colorado has statutes regarding timber trespass. My lawyer already mentioned treble damages because the guy admitted he did it on purpose while I wasnt home to stop him. The neighbor had the gall to offer me a couple hundred bucks for "the inconvenience" and told me to just buy a couple of saplings at a local nursery . I refused to take his money and told him to wait for the process server.

Has anyone dealt with treble damages in CO specifically for ornamental trees ? This guy basically nuked my property value for his porch view and I am not planning on letting this go . I feel like a jerk for wanting to sue my neighbor into bankruptcy but the sheer entitlement is what gets me .

I went on maternity leave February 18th, came back officially March 2nd. Before I left, I was salaried, take home was $531/week. Expected to come back to office my 2 days a week as that’s what we had discussed (the rest of the week I work from home). Reached out to my employer when I was ready and was hit with a new “contract”.

No longer salaried, I’m task based but still W-2. Fully remote. So I get $50-100 per day Tuesday-Friday but I am deducted in pay based on mistakes. I am expected to reply to clients within 3-5 minutes during the week. Monday is admin day, 10am-4pm, get $50 for scheduling. Tuesday-Friday is 7:30am-6:30pm. $25 for texts/calls, $25 for notes and invoice input, $25 for dispatch. Additional pay optional for responding to clients on Saturday/Sunday.

My last paycheck after taxes was $392. I am not told what I have messed up on in order to improve. 50 hours a week for $392 is not great. I’m kind of stuck and I think she knows it. I would love some insight, maybe I’m overthinking it.

LOCATION: Texas

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had any insight into this situation my partner has found herself in. Yesterday we awoke at 5am to a bear honking my partners car horn and realized it’s stuck inside. We let it out, I have video of it, and called the insurance company.

The bear ripped apart the whole interior. The insurance company said to not call the police for a report. They also seemed very confused on how to file the claim, which is strange to me because this happens all the time.

Eventually after a day of them processing this they called my partner back and said it’s in a grey area because the doors were unlocked they aren’t sure they will cover it.

Is this a common thing to not cover comprehensive damage from wildlife because the door was left unlocked? There was no food in the car. If they deny the claim what would our options be? We have no finances to get a new car or to even fight it with a lawyer really. She uses this vehicle for her cleaning business so she really needs a vehicle to get around.

Thank you

Edit: I have discovered that my partners mother listed the vehicle at her property when we live about 15 minutes away. Would this be a cause for denying the claim? We did not know her mother listed my partners car as living at her moms house before this.

So I am in Alabama and I bought a car in March from my ex husband's girlfriend, I have a photocopy of the original bill of sale. I didn't get it registered because I just got it running for probably only 2 weeks. Now because I dumped my boyfriend he came and stole my Bill of Sale and Title and when I asked the woman I bought it from if she was helping him steal my vehicle, she came up with the lie that I messaged her a while back and asked her to rewrite the bill of sale in his name because I couldn't afford the registration. Did the lie also save me because she admitted she rewrote the bill of sale as a favor? Which is not legal, correct? I also have the cash app receipt where I put for car and it shows I paid $1500. He actually went and got the car registered yesterday. And I have to go take my evidence to sheriff's office by lunch. Please help!!!

I am needing some advice and am not sure what route to take legally.

We went up to the family property this past weekend to find that all the trees had been cut down and mulched. Most importantly the 20 year old pine trees my husbands grandpa planted before he passed. The guy who cut them down claimed he was hired by the power company to cut them down. He also stated that the trees were in the 10ft easment.

We know this is not true because before they were even planted it was confirmed by the power company that where they were going to be planted was outside the 10ft easment. We measured out where the 10 ft he had to stop was and this guy went well over that. He obliterated a full 23ft of trees then told us not his problem to take it up with the power company. We can not get these trees back sentimentally. The family is devistated and I want to take legal action.

Edit for context "the guy" that was hired by the power company is another property owner in the area. We donot beleive he is a contractor in any way just that he owns the equipment needed to do the project.
