Just recently I was served a court summons on January 14th to appear in court in February for an unnecessary noise violation (playing a loud musical instrument to be exact)
What if I WASN'T the person who was the actual cause of the noise. My son (who is 19 years old) was playing the drums and I was blamed for the noise. Funny thing about the complaint that it was 3:00pm in the afternoon and NOT between 11:00pm and 7:00am as the law clearly states no unnecessary noise between those hours.
We own the house we live in and the downstairs tenants filed a court complaint which was served to ME by a town police officer. I was NOT the source of the complaint, my son was playing the drums at the time of the complaint, he will testify to this in court if need be. The actual complaint was made on the 9th, the SAME day these tenants were served a 3 day notice to pay the back rent or quit the premises by our attorney.
Am I being wrongly accused and can I file a counter suit or complaint against the tenants for a false statement against me?
