VICTORY AT LAST!

So after 5 months of worrying and stressing about Michael's outrageous lies and accusations of Steve trespassing onto the property...actually jumping the fence late at night in 8 degree weather to throw rocks at the house - what???? like we would REALLY want to do that! We have victory today and I have to say - it feels SOOOO good! I am so glad that is over and resolved!!! So, for those who don't know, due to our pesky neighbors we had to get a video camera to protect ourselves. Well, it finally did its magic by proving to the court who the instigator/problem in this whole situation is, Michael Smith!!! After four long years of living next door to these crazy people, the court finally ruled in our favor as the prosecutor was able to see through there crazy lies and finally see the truth. So, the outcome...we all agreed to have no contact for one year (which we don't do anyway, but Michael may have a problem with it as he likes to randomly scream obscenities to Steve every now and again). If we have a problem with them we are to call our lawyer as they are to do the same. Of course, they could make up another story, but I think when Denny saw the pictures of Michael trespassing on our property and his mouth dropped, he is less likely to believe Michael and probably does not want to be put through something like this again. The prosecutor actually has recommended to Denny that Michael should move out!!! It would be the best day ever to see that moving truck in their driveway again.

Next steps...I do have to go to court when Michael has his trespassing court date and ensure that he receives the same stipulations as what Steve received.

Conclusion: we paid a LOT of money to get a court to tell them to have NO contact with us and finally they are seeing thru the lies and who is the problem. It took a while and a lot of stress and money, but now it is over. Hopefully, the bad dreams and stressful nights will quickly subside so we can go on to living a normal life in our neighborhood!
