Because it has become "silted in" and has vegetation that needs to be removed. The DEP has given permission to dredge it to 5 feet of depth at LMT. It is a residential saltwater canal that provides access to the bay and then to the Gulf. County doesn't give a ratsass. PS: That is a...

Yeah, sure, but it seems strange that that would be in the Plat for one canal, and not 14 others. If they didn't want to maintain the canal(s), it seems logical to not include that in all of the Plats. I agree with you, but I still think a Court might lean in favor of the County intending to...

The first part "don't maintain the canal" has been easy. No one is going to get "fined" for not maintaining the canal. Maybe I didn't say what I wanted to say the right way in the OP. If there are 15 canals, and only one of them has recorded easements "expressly reserved for the County to do...

That's not funny. :cool:

Our present attorney is an associate of our first attorney, who had to retire because of a heart condition (probably lack of one). Seven years ago, in the first meeting with the first attorney, I told him what this was really about, an ongoing harassment the hateful neighbor had been engaging...

Can you hear me laughing? Crying? Over four years I have pursued this with every County official (and others), from the bottom up to our Commissioner. Funny, when I got to the Commissioner, he passed me back to the people who had been stonewalling me for four years. My efforts, and their...

I thought you knew that we have offered to negotiate a settlement several times, including giving him the part of our lot that he encroaches on (free), and he has refused to entertain a settlement. He wants nothing short of way-too-much of our lot, almost up to the foundation of our house. You...

Sorry, misspelled judgment. I know better. :)

JFTR, this is still going on. There is a 2-day Court date in September, 2017, for the two Counts that were not decided by Summary Judgement. Then, unless we add more to those two Counts to provide incentive to negotiate a settlement, our neighbor will appeal. The two counts both consider...

There are 15 residential canals in our immediate area, each shown on several different recorded subdivision Plat Maps. Under "Easement Description", one of them reads "There is hereby expressly reserved for the County an easement of 20 feet along the rear lot lines of all lots for canal...

Any immigration attorneys here? No offense to present company. :)

Can a foreigner who stopped paying for a timeshare in Florida be denied entry to the US? (or do they get congratulations? :cool:) TIA

Thanks, but even though that is accurate, we are way, way past all of that.

I wish we could speak privately, prying eyes being what they are.

I'm not sure that's not a bad thing.

No attorney problem. He has been on top of it. Sounds like you are saying the judgment will stand, but will not be enforceable because it is not a final judgment. I have read up on the requirements for a judgment to be a final judgment and it appears that the Court did everything properly...

What happens to a judgment if other Counts are not disposed, so that it never becomes a final judgment?

His problem and ours. Although the Circuit Court quieted our title and ordered him to remove his house from our property, that has not been done, and will not be done until all Counts of our Counterclaim have been disposed. If we dismiss the two remaining Counts, he will then appeal, so it...

failure to communicate . . . We are not in any way involved with our neighbor. When I say "we" offered, I mean our attorney . . . several times. The question I am now asking is how much of our property does our neighbor need to own in order to gain marketable title? Does he need the area his...

The appellate court denied the appeal for lack of jurisdiction, because two Counts of our Counterclaim are not disposed. The appellate attorney is a real attorney, and realistic, and believes it is in our neighbor's best interest to negotiate a settlement. Here's the question du jour: Can you...
