Oh wow, that's a breathtaking level of incompetence.
It's an easy enough mistake to make, but it should've been caught at one of the various checks during the process. The fault is entirely on the one sueing everyone. If you point a finger, there's three fingers pointing back at you.
I’d still like to know the root cause of the mistake. The article mentions the lots were identified by signs on utility poles. Did a surveyor mark them wrong? Did somebody maliciously change them?
I also wonder if it’s something that could have been spotted if somebody just asked a simple question and wasn’t ignored. For example, were the lots addressed 1, 2, 3, but then 5, 4, 6?
