How to Put a *Stop to a Noisy Neighbor*
by Putting a stop to a noisy neighbor takes the right moves and some cooperation on your part. The time it may take to get to the stopping point may be well worth it.
Make a Citizen’s Arrest. An important step to solving this noise problem is to make sure when you call the Police that you tell the Police Dispatcher to have the Police Officers stop by your house first so you can explain to them what has been going on.
Once the Police arrive at your home tell them that you want to make a “citizen’s arrest” on your neighbors for disturbing the peace.
Once you demand to make a citizen’s arrest the Police must either write a citation or make a physical arrest of the neighbor. it is important to understand that if a citation is written then ‘you’ are the one who signs the ticket as the “arresting person” at which point the Police will then take your neighbor into custody. During the arrest the Police will most likely confiscate the electronic equipment from the DJ or the stereo system and the items will not be returned until after the court case is over. This can hurt a lot.
This is a vital step because the fines on this are extreme. The city will charge your neighbor the price it cost to send out the Officers, put a Helicopter in the sky overhead and any other city resources. That can add up to a lot.
File a Complaint with the City Attorney. You now have plenty of proof and documentation to file a complaint with the City Attorney’s Office.
Once the complaint has been filed an investigation is launched and the owner of the building will be contacted by the City. The owner will be given a certain amount of time to rectify the problem. If the problem is not rectified the property can be deemed a “Nuisance” and the owner could lose his property.
By following these steps you can see that your ‘noisy’ problem can be stopped. Hopefully it will stop before the situation gets to an unnecessary point.
Putting a stop to a noisy neighbor takes the right moves and some cooperation on your part. The time it may take to get to the stopping point may be well worth it rather than sitting in your home, boiling over with anger having to listen to inconsiderate neighbors bothering everyone.
The system is on your side and it will work for you.
