The nightmare continues.
The mobile home park owner has retained an attorney to write me a nasty letter saying the ADA didn’t apply to him or his road (which it does), and that I probably lied about contacting an attorney (and tried to catch me in the “lie” by cc’ing her on the letter), and that my son’s use of the park is a nuisance, which will be remedied by legal action if it doesn’t stop. Of course, they still insist he is running in front of cars and lying down in the road. Funny thing is the Chief Deputy Sheriff observed him walking in the park last week, observed him getting off the road when a truck passed by, and went and told the owner face to face that The Boy has every right to walk in that park…
Law enforcement didn’t bow down to him and do what he wanted (in fact, did quite the opposite), so he figures he can buy the last word by retaining an attorney.
But the law isn’t on his side. Now we just have to figure out how far we want to take this…
I have a headache.
Oh, and Happy First Day of School!
Is there an agency that can help you in your fight? Perhaps they can use it to make NC more aware of autistic issues.
A group called Disability Rights may be a resource, as well as the Autism Society and the ARC. We are investigating all options right now
Ok, so I don’t really like the post so much as want to show support. I have no words of wisdom. I just hope it all ends well quickly.
Me too, Jim. I feel sucker punched by this whole thing.
