I live in a house behind another house by a street corner. We had two pathways from our house to the streets. One goes beside the house in front of us to one street where there is little parking available, and the other goes through an empty lot that belongs to the house on the corner, between its garage and another house. We have been using a pathway through that lot for six years to access that street because we have available parking there and can see our 2 cars there and would be able to hear their alarms there. The corner house was sold by our landlords about 1.5 years ago, and the new owner continued to let us use the path to get to our vehicles.

I have a client with a dog who got into a fight with a neighbor's dog. The neighbor has initiated legal action, and the client's dog has a history of aggression. What legal implications does this have, and what resources can help the client navigate this situation?

I have paid off my timeshare mortgage, but I owe $2,700 in late association fees. I have been paying association fees for over 6 years at $25 a month. If I transfer my property back to the lodge as a 'special warranty deed', do I still have to pay the late association dues, or can I file a 'special warranty deed' with Eagle County and be done with it? Please advise.

Can a parent obtain a restraining order against their child's friend because they found out the friend is gay and dating their child, and now they don't want them to talk? If they talk without the parents' consent, can the parents put a restraining order on that person?
