    They’ve sued everyone instead…

    The lady that owns the property, the people who used to own it, a bank, an insurance company, I think a person that lives on another lot, the person who sold them the other lots.

    In all likelihood the lawsuits are a stall until they can declare bankruptcy and start a new company.

    But they can’t just “restore” the property, it was full of mature native trees/plants and for bulldozed.

    Also the reason they didn’t “need” surveyors, was lots are clearly marked via numbers on telephone poles. They just read the numbers wrong. Which is even worse.

        Psh, the trees are the easy part, trees (for the most part) stay where you plant them.

        Good luck reintroducing the pocono swallow, or even being able to afford to fly a Bird Law specialist out from Philly to determine damages.

        Seriously tho, this lady just got a $500k house and probably a 1/10th of that in damages for a lot she paid 22k for.
