Where Did Common Sense Go?


So... after coming this far in our fight for our road easement, finally almost to the trial date, the lawyers suggest a Mediation in order to resolve the width of the road. The agreement we all came to was for the road to be surveyed to a width of 16 feet except right in front of her cabin where she does not want to move the fence, about 50-75 feet. When the lawyers met with the surveyor out there the first time, she asked to be able to place flags where she wants the road to go. So they allow her this. We go to approve this, and what she has done is mark the fences and boulders that she placed in the roadway, and measured from them, making the road zig and zag and allowing her to leave her obstructions. Meaning she has the road being routed into the ditch where Scott wrecked the Jeep! We all verbally agreed to measure from the center of the road, 8 feet on either side. Unfortunately our lawyers did not specify this in the agreement, giving her free reign to cause more confusion and not resolve anything. We are back at square one if our lawyers do not see the reason in this. It is crystal clear to ME.
Whatever, she still has to move some things and the road has been surveyed and graded and is very nice. We have the right to walk jog or bicycle up and down the road if we like, without her interference. So basically we won. We just wound up in debt to our lawyer. Bet she's more in debt to HER lawyer.
