Re: OT: Bad Mojo
What irritates me about courts is when the government uses it against you. My in-laws lost their house that way. The town wanted to widen the creek for flood control (which my in-laws had never had a problem with). Of course a "reasonable price" was offered for the property but it was way below market value so my father-in-law sued. He was quickly told by his lawyer that the price offered was nearly EXACTLY the market value minus the cost of taking it to court so he can sue and win but it would end up as the same money. Apparently thats a common tactic.
By the way, he did it anyway just cause he was pissed about it.
