She already owes me $400.00 + 12% interest from the adverse possession lawsuit. We have made up our minds that if we don't get paid for a new fence, we will hire an attorney and foreclose on her property. The lawyer we had through the last lawsuit wanted to do this, but our last state governor made him a judge in superior court.

Sounds like a plan... though I dont know how you could foreclose, maybe a lien..

Shield Arc kudos to you, patience is a virtue. most people couldn't handle what you've been through. thanks for keeping us posted. best of luck

We already have a lien on her place now. Far as foreclosing on her property, if the one lawyer wanted to do it a couple years ago, why can't a lawyer do it over this now?:confused3:

You should consider a settlement. Don't put too much faith in the vagaries of the jury system. Bird in the hand and all that…..

One that will repay you for what you have been out and then some written guarantee from her that she will not harass you in the future. Recommend you consult an attorney on drawing that document up so that if she breaches it she will be exposed, contractually, for substantial damages. That way you will have a strong, negotiated civil remedy as well as the threat of criminal charges if she should breach it.

I believe I read somewhere in all of this, that you have spent 30 K or over 30 K . You say she owes only $400.00 + interest ?? I must have missed something somewhere:confused3:

He said he lives in a "no fault state" later. Good luck shield arc. Hope you get your judgment but will probably take the sheriff to evict her after the foreclosure.

Ok, I guess that's the part I missed. If I had already spent that much $$..If possible, I would foreclose on her too. Don't fool with the small stuff.....Go for the Jugular :thumbsup:

Thanks for the update, I think about this one on occasion. just today while things were slow at work, I was looking at some very old TBN threads from back in the early days, and there was one property line dispute, that never did say if it got settled. In that one the bad neighbor had lots of guns, and was a wife beater, and the local law didn't want to get involved.
