Will Repair: So, the person shouldn’t have been at all concerned that her dog might have killed a child or two? That doesn’t enter your mind at all?
If you are going to be a devil’s advocate, make sure your ducks are in a row. You look quite stupid otherwise.
Derleth, perhaps you missed my remarks that Cartooniverse should get a police report, more fully understand the “Free Bite” law and follow-up. I certainly hope you missed them.
One doesn’t follow up unless one is bitten a second time.
And I will admit I did not get the printed report of the incident, which was a mistake. Now, it doesn’t matter.
I don’t want to introduce myself to the new owners by telling them they got fucked on their property.
I think I’ll bring over a nice home-baked banana bread with chocolate chips, sit on the stoop and get to know them as people first, establish some common ground and munch on some nanana bread.
Then I’ll tell them they got fucked on their property. 
Will Repair: Blah blah blah. You took the wrong side and now you want people to ignore it. But when someone takes a big dump in the frontroom, you don’t pretend it’s a diamond just to spare his feelings. Given your track record, you ought to quit pretending you’re capable of thought and outsource your thinking to someone not likely to make you look like a child who just got caught with his hand down his pants.
No, a title search will just list the property description, as given if the various titles. It won’t necesarily show where the property lines are on the ground. For those of us who live on subdivided property, the “property lines on the ground” are shown on the plat maps, which have to be filed with the county. But if you live in non-subdivided land (for which no plat was filed), you need a survey to show where the property lines are on the ground. Surveys can be filed so they are “of record” just like the title is, but they don’t usually have to be. And if the survey is not filed, it doesn’t give notice to the public of what the property lines are – a filed survey, as a matter of law, is public notice of the contents therein. So if Cartooniverse has or can get ahold of a properly done survey – and assuming no survey is of yet on file – it would be a good idea to get the survey filed.
Meh. I wouldn’t get too excited until the new neighbor moves in and is there for a few months. If you can’t imagine a neighbor worse than this one, you’re not being very creative.
I’ve done the snoopy dance too early one too many times. The last time was when the neighbors with 5 unsupervised kids that had a mish-mash of different mothers and fathers moved out. I was overjoyed. I thought that things were bound to get better. In their place, a family with 10 :eek: unsupervised kids that has a mish-mash of different mothers and fathers moved in. These neighbors are so bad that there was a child neglect charge brought against them, although I don’t know the details and the info. is second-hand.
To satisfy a formal requirement, yes. But simply to get an idea where property lines lie, the description found in a deed is often quite useful.
