Public Right-of-Way case in Lake Worth


One way to get rid of a law suit--you just don't respond.

This is a case that has been on-going since November 2009 when suit was filed by Nancy Shepherd vs. the City of Lake Worth, Nancy Shepherd demanded that the City of Lake Worth give her (for $10) the right-of-way next to her house, property referred to as a "pocket park." See Suit

Nothing has been done in this case since October 2013...8 months ago. If you look at the case, the City of Lake Worth has never filed the names of any new attorneys on the case. Elaine Humphreys and Jean Middleton are still the attorneys of record and they have been gone for years.

The City has no right to deed over rights-of-way to any city property for any amount of money, IMO. So, what has happened in this case?  Is it over?  Does the city still own the right-of-way?  Is the case still being dragged out? Does the City still maintain this right-of-way? As we have heard nothing from the city regarding this, can we assume that the case is dead?

  1. I want to know when you ask a commissioner a question they look at you like you're from outer space. They have no idea and have no answer. It's like, Whaaaaaaaat lawsuit?
