Land Dispute Part III

I know I don't normally post twice in one day, but bear with me. There has been a new revelation with the land dispute.

The neighbor let it slip that his surveyor said my surveyor was not returning calls and was basically avoiding him. I let my surveyor know what was being said. My surveyor assured me it was not true and CC'd me on an email with the other surveyor, requesting once again a copy of the efiles pertaining to the lots.

This has been going on for more than an year, mind you.

So finally the other surveyor got back to my surveyor and he says oh, well, we can't share our information - it's against policy. Seriously? How the hell do they settle disputes then? And why wasn't this "news" mentioned before? Maybe a year ago?

So I really don't know how they think this will all get settled. Ever. It's going to cost 30-40K to drag it through land court and honestly, my house isn't worth enough to justify that kind of cost, not to mention like most people I don't have that amount of money sitting around to throw at this.

Any suggestions from anyone out there?
