    Does a ROW convey to new owners? What are the limits of conditions specified within the ROW?

    The OP doesn't own the property so there's nothing to sell. The OP can avoid these issues by purchasing a parcel that doesn't have obstacles to building a residence and getting power/water/sewer/internet installed. Just guessing but I'd bet the parcel the OP is looking at has a lower price...

    when to seek removal of will's administrator?

    Have you pulled the probate case file to see what the executor has done to date, e.g. submitted list of assets, published public notices to creditors, compiled the list of creditors, etc? My mom's estate (in WV) took almost two years to finalize because the we kept finding more assets the...

    Union Harrasment

    LOL yes and it's a fair PITA to use while I'm standing still, never mind while I drive. Plus it's usually in the back seat or buried in my purse. I wear a headset while driving so I can be hands-free if I get a call, I just hit a button on the headset and talk.

    Union Harrasment

    The front camera, yes. I couldn't reach the one in the rear window from the driver's seat.

    Union Harrasment

    Good idea but I'd suggest getting a front/rear dash cam system instead of trying to use a cell phone and take video while driving.

    Marriage or Will?

    There may also be assets that pass outside of probate directly to the spouse. As an example, if your father has a retirement account (IRA, 401k, 403b, etc.) then unless his wife has signed off on someone else being declared the beneficiary, under ERISA she would automatically receive that...

    End of my rope

    You owe me a new monitor. Mine has coffee all over it now. To the OP - How old is your wife? Any chance she could have early onset dementia? Have her doctors considered that she may have a brain tumor or some other physical issue that would explain her mental problems? Otherwise, well...

    Which is why I said contain it in a planter, as yes some varieties can run unchecked if just put into the ground.

    Neighbors Making Property Unusable

    With a fast-growing bamboo hedge just inside of it. I'd suggest using planters so it doesn't take over.

    Suing UPS in Small Claims Court

    Sorry I mixed them up because both FedEx and UPS require an FFL compliance agreement; simply being a licensee is not good enough. UPS also had the annual minimal limit and the prohibition on firearm parts, where FedEx will let anyone ship parts such as the OP's barrel, it's only firearms that...

    Tenant damaged and stole property and management company had prior personal relationship

    Agreed except it looks like the rental unit is in FL not WA if the state listed by the OP is correct, so that's probably where the small claims suit would have to be filed. The property management company probably has verbiage in its contract about jurisdiction as well for lawsuits. The small...
