It's going to be based upon your state's contract law. You can look up your state's statutes online, then look under contract law. Also, read the fine print on your contract; it may stipulate arbitration.\n\nThe problem that you will have is proving that a defect didn't occur after the inspection. I've used several inspection services and most of them were worthless. The best inspection will be done by an engineer; you will pay more (I paid $400 for an engineer as opposed to $250 for the regular inspector) but you will get a real report with photos and a detailed analysis.

i am in AZ and local law and custom will prevail.  what you have is adverse possession.  these things are controlled by time frames such as to close the Ingres/egress off it needs to be open and notorious and done like for 24 hours every 7 years.  there should be a time frame in the 7 to 10 year range that they would have had to close off physical access.  physical access is different then legal access.  most areas require physical access to all lots.  your best bet is to contact first a local real estate broker who specializes in land not in houses, it will be under commercial real estate in the phone book. he can answer most questions. but you will be in court to get it done, and the real estate guy will know the right lawyer.  this is a highly technical area of law make sure you get someone who does this for a living, a divorce lawyer will not be much good

yes.  In fact contractors lien's have to be litigated within a year.  If the litigation concerns real estate, the "lis pendens" (notice of litigation)  also acts as a lien.

There is probably a statute of limitations, where you can only sue/be prosecuted within a certain time frame around when the original problem happened.  You'd need to check if it is less than 6.5 years.  Even then it can be hard to prosecute against.

I don't think so. This type of easement is one that is created by use of the land over time.  There is no formal record of the easement.  I believe it is created by the court when you litigate.\n\nFor example, if you crossed your neighbor's land to reach your house every day for 5 years, and then one day he tried to stop you, a judge could find that your continued and open use of the land for a long time created a prescriptive easement in your favor.  \n\nThe duration requirement varies by state.  \n\nSee an attorney who specializes in property law.

There are several ways to define "statute of limitations"\nHere are some website and info.\n\nthe time within which a lawsuit must be filed.

You can sue, but that doesn't mean you can be successful at a lawsuit.\n\nIf the "something that supposedly happened" was that long ago, a lawsuit will probably be dismissed because of the statute of limitations.\n\nYou need to consult with a California attorney to protect your own interests, as well as those of your husband.

Go to the courthouse and see if there has been a 'lis pendens' filed against the property in question. One of the friendly records room people should be able to help you look for this.

yes it is under Article 43 of the UCMJ (uniform code of military justice) unless it is desertion during war time then there is no statue of limitation. You cannot be punished with an Article 15 more than 2 yrs post the event and you cannot be Court-Martialed more than 5 yrs unless you are charged with death.

You are referring to adverse possession. In West Virginia, to sue for a title to land, you must commence the action in 10 years. So, if you use the property as your own for 10 years, there's nothing the owner can do.

Go to the housing court in your area and then head to the records room all L&T case records are accessible to the public.  If this is an issue for you, try you local legal aide office, normally located in the housing court as well..Good luck with that...Also I would call the local authorities...like here in New York we have the 311 line to report the atrocities you are currently living under.  Jackie and Marwan sound like slum lords. Oh yeah you can also take them to court for repairs..But make sure you keep paying your rent....lack of repairs doesn't mean you don't pay rent...that is grounds for an eviction...which by your discription would be a step up....and outta there!
