Paul Chernoff on Nostr: One legal problem for homeowners is a Supreme Court ruling from around 100 years ago. ...
One legal problem for homeowners is a Supreme Court ruling from around 100 years ago. It involved someone selling the mining rights to their properly to a coal mining company and then the company destroying their house to access the coal. The SCOTUS ruled that the mining company had the right to destroy the house to get to the coal. I last read about this in the 80s but I think this makes legal recourse harder for the homeowners.
