Simple answer: No \n\nHowever, I suspect I know what the person you heard this from was referring to. \n\nThe government has a power called "eminent domain" which gives them the ability to take any piece of land, although they are required to pay fair market value for it. This power is not unlimited, and generally has to be for a justifiable public purpose. You usually see eminent domain being used when a new freeway has to be built through an existing neighborhood. There has been a great deal of discussion about this lately because of a recent Supreme Court ruling that allowed the government to transfer a piece of land from one private party to another in order to faciliate economic development of the area. This was a *very* controversial opinion, because it seems to dramatically increase the scope of the eminent domain power by including private party to private party transfers rather than just the traditional private party to government transfers. Those who oppose the Supreme Court decision argue that this allows the government to take any land from anyone for any purpose, but this is probably an exaggeration. In any event, Congress is debating making a change in the law to limit governments from forcing one private person to sell to another private person.

You can call the County Attorney's office in your county and speak with someone about the guidelines. Also you could plead not guilty in court and hire a private attorney to investigate into the matter of the legality of the roadblock. Could be pricey but it'll get you out of the ticket if you could prove that it was illegal.

You can if the title to the land is separate from the house.  But I suspect the title is for the combined land and house, so you can't.  Why would you want to do this anyway?

Each state is different. And by the way, your property taxes don't pay for your roads!  Revenue comes from license plates fees, gas taxes, etc.\n\nThe city will only get involved if they have the funds and if they HAVE to.  \n\nI suggest that you contact the city board.  Sometimes management is unwilling to do something unless they get orders straight from the top.  If that doesn't work, strike up a letter campaign and let the local news know about it.  The one thing that THEY don't like is bad press.  But be prepared, they'll always claim lack of funds.  You can always file a FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) request against them to see if they really do have the funds or not.

Doesn't seem entirely on point, but the only case that nearly matches your terms is:\n\n200 Ariz. 523, 29 P.3d 870, 353 Ariz. Adv. Rep. 24\nCourt of Appeals of Arizona,\nDivision 1, Department C.\nHORTON  v. MITCHELL\nNo. 1 CA-CV 00-0500.\nJuly 31, 2001.\n\nNeighbors brought declaratory judgment action against landowner and his successors, seeking permanent injunction to stop landowner from dedicating land to city and to stop city from constructing roadway on land. Following a bench trial, the Superior Court, Maricopa County, No. CV 99-90519, M. Jean Hoag, J., denied the request for an injunction. Neighbors appealed. The Court of Appeals, Garbarino, P.J., held that: (1) neighbors were owners of lot and had right to enforce subdivision's restrictions, and (2) roadway was a structure, and thus was prohibited by the restrictions.\nReversed and remanded.

whoever the next of kin is, gets the land... your description is to confusing to figure that out for me..but you being a family memeber should be able too.... a lawyer would probally help too.. if there is a lean on the land or debts owed.. it might just go to the government.. I would get a lawyer

They can/will reposes the car, then sue you for the cost of the car and the reposession. But they cannot insure that the county aty will go after you, they can only make a reccomendation of action. But more likely they will go after you. If you dont' cooperate they will kick your butt finacially-Just cooperate and give them the car. It will be cheaper in the end and they may even give you a chance to get out of the contract.

sorry, but there is no law requiring land owners to designate the boundaries of the land they own are clearly marke.d\n\nUnless its owned by the state and it publicly states that it can be used by the public (public right to access) then you must assume 100% of the time that hte land is privately owned.\n\nYou dont have a case as you were trespassing.

no,  there is no negotiation w/ the govt.,you have to fight tooth and nail. and it helps if your neighbors help you too.  there is a story of eminent domain in the reader's digest, look it up maybe it can help you

What would be important to know is if you live in a community property state. If you do, you can't do it on your own.

Through right of easment, no.  When it comes to land and real estate it falls back onto the zoning plans.  what does the township have on the books, as to where you land ends and begins.  That of course is obvious but your neighbors argument can be that, you always maintained it, doesn't infer that i chose to give it up as my property.  Unless he wants to restructure the lot size and hand over that strip to you.

Well even though there seems to be a contract orally for the sale of land s.53 of the law of property act 1925 applies as well as s2. law of property act 1989, which means that all sale of land must be in writing and are usual by deed. So practically there is not legally enforceable agreement until contracts are exchanged. So even if tom has spent money on a survey he may not recover.\nThere is debate in this area , but in the uk this is inherent risk in these transactions. He may bring a claim for damages under Hadley v.Baxendale, only for his loss eg the survey costs.\n\nAs far as the car is concerned, no consideration has passed so Tom has not really lost anything, he could enforce the contract, but courts are unlikley to enforce specific performance. Practically if the car is £500 there are plenty like it perhaps, but if the price was more £100,000 eg for a RUF modified porshce which are built to order then as there is nothing like it the court may order specific performance of the contract. Orally contracts cannot usually be enforced without some evidence showing intention.

I was in a simialir situatio to this a few years ago, except I didnt have any land.  I wasnt able to get a construction loan without putting up my half of my current shared house as collateral.  It was kind of a sensative area legally I was told.  It ended by my ex having to buy me out and paying off the remainder of the loan so she could own the house outright.  It can be done, you just need to investigate.

I am certain that yes, technically,you are breaking the law (and could be ticketed!). The best thing to do in this situation is to make local municipal officials aware of the situation (go to them prepared-take a map, photographs, and all pertinant information). Your city planning department or police department may be of help. Such situations must be commonplace. It may simply be a street-planning oversite. Good Luck!

You want to know what *your* rights are while you're on *my* property??\n\nInteresting question.\n\nYou need to tell people what state you're in, but don't expect any golden eggs here.  If you're on someone else's land, what "extra" rights do you think you're going to have that you wouldn't have anywhere else?

The laws may difer from state to state etc...I suggest that you call Motor Vehicles and get the answer straight from the source. If anyone would know how to fix this problem legally they would. I'm sure that this has happened to someone else at some time or another.\n If that doesn't work then you are left to think up a clever way to sell it to someone else.
