Should I Purchase a Property That May Have Easement Issues With Neighbors and Gas Company?
“I have a contract to buy a piece of property. During the survey, it was determined that a portion of the driveway is on “the brothers” (referred to as 2B’s from here on) land next door. And does the gas company have any rights to my land even though there is no pipe on it, a large (90′ pines with other tall vegetation under them) vegetative buffer barring the use of it, and no recorded easement (there is one on the 2B’s land and the previous owner was compensated for it; the 2B’s purchased their land with the easement already there)?

My Business Property has Been Rezoned as Residential, What are my Options?
Our Township just recently adopted zoning. We lived in a mobile home and also operated a business at the property.

The new zoning lists our former business property as Residential Single Family Dwelling. The township lot size ordinance says that that property is too small to build on.

Issues with Receiving Child Support from Garnished Wages
My childs father is currently ordered to pay me 568.00 a month in child support. Me and the father talk pretty regular so he informs me of how much is taken out of his check and from what he tells me..they are taking out almost the full amount but i’m not receiving half of that money on my end in support. I honestly was receiving more from him before the support than what i’m receiving now and that is so backwards.

My Neighbors and I Disagree on Their Right to Pave Our Easement, What Should we do?
We recently purchased a 5 acre piece of property. Unfortunately we did not have access to the language of the document when we purchased the property. This is what was “told” to us about the easement when we purchased the property. Our neighbors have recently brought to our attention that we were mistaken about the extent of the length of the easement. They have stated that they intend to put a road the entire length of the easement– nearly 400 feet. Do they have the “right” to do all of these things?
