My mother left her children her interest in a property in Florida. We wish to sell the land. However the land is land-locked and the owner of the property we need for access has refused to sell it to us as he wants the land himself and feels as long as we can not access the land he can pay us a nominal fee and we will just have to accept it. Is there a way around this? It is my understanding that my stepfather and stepbrother have maintained a road into the property for quite some time. Does this give them a claim to the access? If not are there any other remedies to this dilemma? 

My son was issued a "No tresspassing order banishment" from the appartment complex where his x-wife and their 3 children live. There are no restrictive/or protective orders against him. His x-wife called the police 2 times to the appartment complex because she didn't want my son to see the children. She has sole legal and physical custody and he has visitation according to the Indiana guidelines for non custodial parents. My question is this: Can the appartment complex legally issue this banishment? The 2 times that she called the police, there were no fights, no drinking, no cause for concern, everything was civilized. What rights does my son have in this? Would love an answer to these questions please...S.M. in Indiana

I grant an easement along a 10 ft strip of my lot for neighboring lots to access their property. Part of the 10 ft strip contributes to a road and part of it is landscape and slope up to the non-easment part of my lot.   Due to one of the lots being recently developed, the city has required widening the road and I will be left with a stark wall that ruins my curb appeal and creates a falling hazard at the edge of my property.  The easement beneficairy claims they can just do the mnimum to deliver the wide road and leave me with the problem. Do I have any right to specify how this is done?
