Sr signed the 1949 agreement, and that agreement was expanded in 2002.
What the fuck were they doing on Jr's land?

He should have taken out a shotgun and given them until the count of 10 to get off his property, and called the police himself. They have no right to an easement on his property unless he agrees to the compensation being offered. We're not talking about eminent domain either. And if they laid pipe down while he was in jail, he should take a backhoe to it.

The judge who reviewed the facts in the case said you are wrong, Radar. He initially sided with the landowner, but then when presented with the evidence, ruled against the landowner. Imma trust a judge who was actually in a position to review the legal documents and evidence in the case.

He initially sided with the landowner, but then when presented with the money/political pressure, ruled against the landowner.:eyebrow:

I assumed jr inherited some of the land with the easement on it - and that the disagreement started in 2002 because he/they didn't agree to any expansion of the easement.

Agreed that's one possibility, but I don't see any clarification in the article.
The internet better get on the damn stick, and clear this up. :haha:

That was my assumtion as well. The gas thing in PA is going to bring this up again and again. Once you allow that first easement, you've opened the door to broader interpretation.
