Woman sues City for Cutting Down Tree

Saturday 17 June 2006 at 12:59 am

The Springfield City Government hired an outside contractor to cut down a few trees around the city. Too bad they cut down the tree in front of the home of Margaret Schneider.

Schneider is now suing the City for damages. She claims that the tree provided a lot of shade, and now that the tree is gone, her electricity bills have doubled.

"I'm angry. The tree was in fine health, and it was on my property. Someone's got to pay."

Her case will be heard later this month.


Ok, this isn't accurate, it's fictional, but my wife claims she read a similar article somewhere in the last 30 days that was about this exact same event happening. Yet I and other people can't find it. Can you?
