Politician of the year!

This is exactly the type of person I want running my country.

Real winner

State Senator Jim Alesi fell off a ladder and broke his leg at someone else's unfinished home three years ago - and now he's blaming the homeowners for his injury. Alesi is also suing the home builder, Louis DiRisio. ...

So why would Alesi sue now, three years later? The homeowners told us he never complained after the injury, nor did he thank them for declining to press charges.

The statute of limitations for trespassing runs out after three years. That means that as of this past Tuesday, the homeowners could no longer sue Alesi for trespassing on their property. As it turns out, that's the exact same day he filed his suit against them.
 
In Louisiana you can use a debt owed you that has prescribed (past the statute of limitations) as an off-set against a new claim brought against you by the same person who owed you the debt you never collected or sued on - even if it is too late to sue.

I hope y'all something like that under your common law.

I hope we have that too, but I don't see how Ohio having it would help the NY homeowners. :biggrin:

One state in the union uses a pure civil code derived from the Spanish Civil Code and the Code Napolean, both of which are derived from the civil code of ancient Rome. That's Louisiana.

The other 49 of you use some abomination called "the common law".

I lump you all in together. :wink2:
