I have a similar situation without an injury. The people that live above me have two small children and a dog. Most mornings the children and the dog wake up early and run around the house making sufficient noise to wake me and my girlfriend at an hour that we would prefer not to be up at. With us being out of bed at this hour, the people that live below us claim that we are making an unreasonable amount of noise in the morning and some evenings. We havent complained to our neighbors above us, however our neighbors below have complained that our actions have affected their quality of life, and that we are infringing on their right to a peaceful life. Im literally stuck between not wanting to offend the neighbors above me, and having to deal with unreasonable expectations below me. In my case there are no claims of injury, however Im worried that I may be subject to action from my neighbors below for their claims of loss of enjoyment of their home. What would the law find in this situation?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
