Suspecting a pasted barn protruding the damage to the parking lot and the sprayer, the Church of the Medical Church took legal action against a longtime neighbor.
At the end of April, the Meridian Missionary Baptist Church in Alicia accused Williams D. Williams for property damage exceeding $ 1,000, according to Aidah’s state -time court records,
The claim was filed under the Aidah Code 6-202, which examines a civil curse.
The Meridian Missionary Baptist, who is looking for jurors in the court, is sitting in the corner of the Meridian Road and East Carlton Avenue in a mixed residential area near the city center of Mridian. Defendant’s home, where Williams says she occupied 19 years with her husband, limits the church to the East.
The church claims that it was a lawsuit after “many times” spoke with Williams and another home resident, and later sent letters in 2024. April 29th. And 2024. September 16th. Those letters were, based on the trial, no defendants, and no action was taken to correct damage or “general problems”.
In the official applications, Williams denied the accusations in response to the action and asked the case to be dismissed.
“A few years ago, we received a letter asking if they could buy our house because they wanted to make a larger parking lot,” Williams said Aidah’s statesman. “We did not sell and then started with these pair of complaints in the last couple of years.”
One big issue of the case will cover the property of the fence. According to the lawsuit, Williams built a barn against the church fence. Drawing the roof sits on the fence, causing damage and protruding to the church’s property, the lawsuit says.
“That fence is legally ours. We are legally allowed to create everything we want before our fence,” said Alicia Williams. “And if it goes down a bit and requires some repairs, it is also for us, but it has nothing to do with them.”
The defendant is also accused of building a RV parking lot, which rises to the church’s property and killed an arborvita planted along the fence line.
Alicia and her husband John Timothy Williams II says the parking lot is allowed and lawful, and said the church was actually responsible for damage to trees.
“It is surprising that we watched them cut those trees,” Alicia said. “We didn’t.”
The court’s lawsuit also states that Williams had torn and broke the heads of the church sprayer.
John Williams told The Stateman that he accidentally ran through one of the church sprayers and then offered to fix it, but he was told he was not required.
The Church asks for compensation for the alleged damage and costs related to crime investigation, prohibition to avoid future damage and lawyer’s tax costs.
“The defendant’s actions here are essential interference in the Church and the plaintiff’s real estate and have been deliberate and unreasonable,” the claim states. “The actions of the defendant here are an obstacle to the use of the plaintiff’s property for free to interfere with comfortable enjoyment of his real estate.”
According to court, the Meridian Missionary Baptist Church hired Eagle lawyer Matthew C. Williams and the defendant decided to represent himself.
The Church spokesman told The Statman that this would not comment on ongoing litigation and later proposed to make a written statement that the statesman had not received.
