Local Villiage Police

Currently, my case load is a local woman with feral cats she has adopted as her own, being threatened by the Local Police Department and says she is being Harassed by the Chief of Police himself.

The issue has been ongoing for some time with a tit for tat attitude by the peritrator of the issuance, James White, and the two neighbors he feels are violating his property rights by allowing their cats roam free on his yard. The complaint however does not stop with the cats, it continues to newer levels with the request by Mr. White fo the village to stop possums and racoons from going on his property as well. The request that makes me chuckle the most is the request for the village to make birds stop deficating on his property as well. I'm not quite sure what Mr. White is expecting to be done but I do realize that issue is unfortunately unavoidable.

My effective suggestion to the village to deal with the problem at hand for the time being is to amend the "pooper-scooper" law to include domesticated cats, thereby making it the duty of the owner of the pet to clean up the defication on the demised premise. This, however, is not enough, so it was suggested to Mr. White to buy moth balls to keep the animals away as they do not like the smell. Mr. Whites response was that he could not afford moth balls at the dollar store. One gets a sense that the complaint is not about the cats but rather a new land owner trying to assert his authority over the neighborhood.

I think i should state that I dont feel that the Village Police are corrupt in this issue. Just there seems to be an unclear, severly lacking in focus on laws and statutes, in regards to the issue at hand. I have done nothing but supply all the relevant and pertinant information from a legal standpoint but the issue is like a dog chasing its tail and it is just getting worse. To the point that Mr. White in his dire frustrations is now taking it out on the neighborhood with gross misconduct in public to the point of lewdness.
