Don’t know much about the law but was just re-reading stuff and came across this again “Delaware Chancery Court judge denied Wheeler’s application for a temporary restraining order on Dec. 13.”
By restraining order, would that mean to stay away from him or stop building on the house?
Wheeler had asked that the court restrain or stop the neighbors from doing any further work on the house. It was denied. IOW the court said they could continue to build.
BUt note the house was suppose to be finished last fall. They are WAY behind.
There are different kinds of restraining orders for different purposes. You're thinking of a certain kind..."Order of Protection"

RE: Method: Jack was not a small person. It would take a large strong, person or people to “beat” him to death. Injuries on the perps? He would fight back.
OTOH surprise attack from the back, or he was attacked with an weapon.
