Oh, they’re talking about property. Whew...
Maybe they could have some younger relatives play with their yo yo’s over the line. Things could get super cereal then.
They oughta get on my spam e-mail lists! 9 inches? That’s nothing, a piece of cake!
Give them a mile and they’ll still want another inch...
Judge Denies Couple’s Request For 9 More Inches
That headline is just plain wrong.
It’s a good thing I’m not the agrieved party in this case, or these clowns would get 6 feet!
Straight down!
I’d tell ‘em;
“Your heirs may get to enjoy all of my property, but you’re not going to get to enjoy ANY of it!”
I read about this case. These people went back fro more land? Amazing. They are thieves.
These things are always weird. My brother bought my grandparents house, where they had lived since 1938. There was a small flower garden on the side of the house and then the neighbor’s driveway. My grandmother had grown rosebushes and other flowering plants there since I could remember.
One day, after some new neighbors moved in a couple of years ago, the new guy knocks on my brother’s door and says “I was looking at the property lines, and your flower garden is on our property. We are going to pave it over.” My brother said my grandparents had used it since the thirties, but the guy said “Sorry. We own it and we will take it to court if we have to.” Nice introduction to the new neighbors.
My brother got a layout of the plot, and...oopsie! It was set up in such an odd way that the flower garden was indeed on their property, but...THEIR ENTIRE DRIVEWAY WAS ON MY BROTHER’S PROPERTY!
LOL...how wonderful is THAT? Being the nice guy my brother is, he pointed that out, and said “You can keep the driveway if we can keep the rose garden...”
Nothing more was ever spoken about it!
I wonder what constitutes "using" in Colorado. Some skier might want to claim Vail.
This is an extremely notorious case about a husband wife team of crooked democrat party lawyer/politicians simply and overtly stealing some desirable land.
They used their influence with democrat jusges top make the outrageous theft “legal.”
Adverse possession never made much sense to me. Because I’m nice enough to let you cut through my yard should not make it your yard.
In Colorado, adverse-possession law allows a person to gain property after using it unchallenged for 18 years.
GAVE them 1/3 of their neighbors property?!?!?!?! Like they didn't have any other way to get into their own back yard, like a door or something? How greedy can you get?
What a title!!!! lol.
My wife has been requesting this for years...
So the thieves didn’t steal enough and went back for more. At least there’s a sane judge.
"I'll defend her honor your honor."
"First I'll have to examine her briefs."
"Well on her or off her, make up your mind."
"Definitely on her, that's the best offer I've had all week!"
Cheers!
I wonder if there’s a particular reason they want that 9 inches. I have a weird property line issue at my home, so I can appreciate what a difference a few inches can make.
My property line runs up the center of my driveway, but the other half of the driveway and a couple of feet on that side are technically part of a neighboring lot. You might think that the owner/occupant of the neighboring lot is the other party that uses the driveway, but you’d be wrong. The driveway is the only access to, and only the access to, my property and a THIRD lot which doesn’t own a single square inch of the driveway or the ground on the far side of it. There are now lateral support issues developing which will eventually require me and the other property owner who is entitled (by deed) to access via the driveway, to force the owner of the property to shore up his collapsed retaining wall that is causing “his” side of the driveway to collapse, even though he has no use whatsoever for half a driveway that doesn’t provide access to his property, so he doesn’t give a cr@p about it.
Re the couple foot wide strip of ground on that side of the driveway, for several years up until a few weeks ago, it was sporting a progressively leaning 10 foot chain link fence with 3 rows of rusty barbed wire on top. The lean had literally reached a 45 degree angle (fortunately towards HIS property). The fence serves no purpose whatsoever, since it’s at one side of his parking lot (it’s a commercial property), and another side is completely unfenced and can be driven onto from the street at any point. The fence was just hauled upright by the new tenant at his own expense, using guywires planted a couple of inches from the edge of the driveway (for liability reasons, as he reasonably feared the thing would fall on his customers parked cars), but is still hideous and serving no purpose whatsoever.
If I got control of that little strip of land, I could get rid of the d@mn fence and fix the retaining wall and re-pave the driveway without dealing with the pain-in-the-@ss owner. I’m plenty willing to pay to get all that work done, but not when somebody else owns the property and is free to do things like leave an ugly massive fence leaning at a 45% angle.
Ye GADS...
Talk about Chutzpah!!!
Big Ten Inch Record Lyrics
Artist(Band):Aerosmith
Got me the strangest woman
Believe it, this chick’s no sinch
When I wanna get her goin’
Then I whip out my Big Ten Inch
Record of the band that plays the blues
Well the band that plays the blues
She just loved my Big Ten Inch
Record of her favorite blues
Last night I tried to tease her
I gave my love a little pinch
But she said now stop that jivin
now whip out your big ten-inch
Record of the band that plays the blues
Well the band that plays the blues
She just loved my Big Ten Inch
Record of her favorite blues
I’ll cover her with kisses
and when we’re in a lover’s clinch
she gets all excited
when she puts on my big ten-inch
Record of the band that plays the blues
Well the band that plays the blues
She just loved my Big Ten Inch
Record of her favorite blues
My gal don’t go smokin’
and liquor just makes her flinch
Seems she don’t go for nothin’
‘cept for my big ten-inch
Record of the band that plays the blues
Band that plays the blues
She just loved my Big Ten Inch
Record of her favorite blues
