re: Does Anyone Have Any Unique Stories About Land Disputes?

I can't remember the specifics, but I know a family that bought land that was locked by water and some Stream family owned land. The Streams were trying to buy the parcel themselves, but were waiting out the owner to come down in price. From what I understand, Louisiana law dictates that you must provide a right of way in this situation. Well, the Streams were pissed that the land was bought out from underneath them (in their minds) so they have tied up allowing the right of way in court going on 15 years now. There has even been some vandalism on the property such as a tractor set on fire that has been tied to the Stream family.

So basically this family wanted to buy some land, but instead of buying it at the original price they waited for the price to drop,however; in the meantime someone else bought it so they caused a huge ordeal because someone ponied up before they did? They sound like some self-righteous pricks.
