The original checks were sent back end of October, beginning of November time frame. The deposit happened last Friday.

I have not received re-issued checks at this point in time.

My question involves business law in the state of: New York

Hello - I run a business, and while I feel that my risk for a lawsuit is low - there is still risk of one.

I was told that if I owe...

Ok, I FINALLY got a response from the code official at the county level:

"Your neighbor can not create a condition of which your existing conforming property is made non-conforming, it is the...

No answer yet - the guy I talked with last week forwarded the issue onto the guy who is in charge of the entire county. We will see what the verdict is soon I hope - if there even is one.

Not a contract with regard to the fence - because you are right - I seem to be ok on that threat even though I didn't hear back from the guy I called.

I don't know... I guess after 18 months of...

Yes - that would be nice once this is all over. A question - the neighbor was saying he wanted 'peace' by using the fence as a threat against me (even though he has been the aggressor).

Since I...

Ok, I called the state code office - and spoke with someone about it. They are on the same page as all of us - It isn't my fence, so it has no bearing on my fence's compliance. The guy actually KNEW...

There is no negotiating with the neighbor. This 'get off my lawn' old man had been harassing me ever since I got my driveway redone/extended 18 months ago.

There are now pages of back story - but...

T53147 - while this may be a valid point - I want to stop this before it starts. To deal with it on a town level, not fence company level.

Hah - you know, I definitely will. This thread took off in a way that I never anticipated when I first posted - and I certainly owe you all a follow up. It may be a few weeks obviously until I have a...

The way you say it there seems so obvious and logical. If only logic was the way everyone sees the world.

I will not pursue this issue on my own - now armed with some of these logical thoughts, I...

T53147 - Heh - you know - I thought about that - and being aggressive with whatever fence company he chose.

But even if I could stop them from coming over - they could intelligently build the...

Mr. Knowitall - I thought I posted it on this thread already - but budwad actually posted it right above your post.

"Prohibited locations. Barriers shall be located to prohibit permanent...

Thanks for the clear cut advice. This will certainly be my next step!

Would talking to the code guy before any of this happens be wise? Maybe try to show him the way that this can be interpreted and get him to agree that issuing a permit in the first place would be...

Mr. Knowitall - exactly.

This boils down to whether or not I am responsible for something my neighbor builds.

I guess my two options are to call the NY State code office directly and ask them -...

"I would want to start by figuring out the inspector's reasoning for why the construction of a second fence, some distance away from the existing fence"

The neighbors fence would be 12 inches or...

I actually appreciate your back and forth - because you are diving into good arguments!

Another point to make here which flows from what both of you have said is this: I learned about my...

jk - exactly - you nailed it.

I am trying to put together something to present to my code guy where I can stop the issue BEFORE it starts. e.g. I don't want to have to fight this in court.

"But how does that change the fact that your pool is fenced in by a legal fence?" On this we 100% agree!

I mean this is a slippery slope right? What if my neighbor has a tree, and builds a tree...

I found the NY State Code which is the one that deals with the stockade fence good side/bad side. Here is the link - the section is at the bottom of page 3 and continues onto page 4.

"Where the...

Thank you very much for your quick responses!

I mentioned 'good side' specifically for the code part - but I guess I should have been a little more in depth.

When a wooden stockade fence is...
