Some friends live on a 55+ private estate, comprising of individual properties. They live in a group of 6 properties, which are some distance away from the others.
There is a dispute with one of the owners who lives in the larger part of the development (ie. not within their group of 6), who thinks his boundary is in the wrong place. This will affect other tenants and there is a very vocal guy who is heading up opposition, and saying that they all need to contribute to a legal fund to fight this situation.
My friends - and some of their very elderly neighbours - are extremely worried that they may have to find substantial pots of money to fund a battle which they don't think affects them.
I realise that without seeing legal documents etc. it's impossible to be precise, but wondered if anyone has any experience or knows of any 'rule of thumb' which may help?
Thank you for any thoughts
