My neighbor launched a lawsuit naming me and my association as defendants, the suit is based on noise from my garage. This is a condo/Townhome and we are attached. The short story is she hired the biggest law firm who enlisted a sound specialist to study the noise. This was a huge dog and pony show in there there sound specialist had recorded 3 weeks of sounds, in short my garage is now off limits to anything but parking. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I suspect she put out between 5 and 7 thousand dollars to whip this together.
P.S. Its not over till the fat lady sings, however I wont spend a cent on lawyers.. The noises that made the cut were all from making parts, cutting, grinding and hammering. I'll just have to make the parts somewhere else, however I wont stop tinkering and didn't spend a cent. This brat is gearing up to do a sound study based on household noise, she says we wake her up every night, so I suspect there will be a round two.. I would guess its going to be a much harder sell for her to get traction with this issue.. I hate condos x infinity but its made me 500K in the last 10 years but will be replaced by a farmhouse home in Washington state some time soon.. |

QUOTE They're now thinking of selling their house just to get away from this dog. So in their case, it sure would be nice to have someone take action (IMG:http://www.marlinfirearms.com/Images/photo_917VS.jpg) Permanent solution to the problem... Effective to 700 yards. |

QUOTE(Jake Raby @ Dec 11 2007, 03:12 PM)  (IMG:http://www.marlinfirearms.com/Images/photo_917VS.jpg) Permanent solution to the problem... Effective to 700 yards. .17HMR? 700 yards? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Against prairie dogs I haven't found the .17 to be very effective out past 300 yards. Maybe you should up that to .22-250 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) Anyway, HOAs and Condo Associations attract petty Nazi wannabes. Best to avoid them all together ... I hope you can get that farm land soon, drive-ability. |
