Guy that ran the sewer company passed away and the company died with him. The Parish inspector was no help because he's the one that passed it on the follow up to the install and he covered up as best as he could and then he also passed away in the middle of it all. My attorney told me it would be cheaper (and quicker obviously) to resolve it somehow instead of taking it to court. It was a nightmare. I finally had to buy a part of the lot next door, and being in the bind I was in, I had no room to negotiate.
Holy shite. What a crazy set of circumstances.

Stout that sucks but man I'd have to say that situation is the very definition of the exception as opposed to the rule.

Yea the sewer guy died of a heart attack in the middle of WalMart and the inspector just died of old age.
That sewer guy had put in two sewers for me one time and he crossed the discharge pipe over a pipeline even though I told him we couldn't and the systems had to be sprinkler systems. Thankfully I knew the boss of the pipeline because I used to date his step-daughter or else it could have costs us a lot of money. He told me had the sewer guy scratched the pipeline or even gotten within 12" of it, we would have to pay for them to shut the pipeline down for a few hours to be inspected. This was a supply line to a Boise papermill so you can imagine what that lost production would have costs.
We had to have the pipeline guys stay out there while we dug it up to test the depth and then compacted the dirt back to make sure it was all done properly.
I never used that sewer guy again and it shows what a moron he was but he and his brother were police jurors for years and he had Parish connections.
