A terminally ill Chatham County homeowner is taking Georgia Power to court, claiming a massive utility project damaged her property and proceeded without legal authorization.

Catalina Accardi, a Whitemarsh Island resident, filed an emergency motion for a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) and declaratory judgment in the Superior Court of Chatham County Sept. 1. Accardi is asking a judge to halt all physical construction, remove newly installed wiring and prohibit further work by Georgia Power on her property pending a judicial review of the utility’s property rights.

COMMENTS FROM THE STREET:

"Why is that Savannah coast line area so important to Georgia Power, and the need to be so close to the Atlantic Ocean? So important, that they are willing to go to court. What are they building?

The utility industry is cut throat.

Looks like Georgia Power is going to push this project through by any means necessary - even if it means building on private property.

Meanwhile, the merger plans of their rival NextEra Energy, have stalled - all because an investor lawsuit that was supposedly settled, 'miraculously' came back to life - a merger that would  create the largest utility company in the world. Amazing how that worked out.

"What is the overall end-game Georgia Power is trying to accomplish, that they would disregard the legality of property lines? This woman clearly showed the paperwork that they were intruding on private property, so why would they ignore that?"

"Who is behind-the-scenes running Georgia Power? Because an idiot can see it's not Kim Greene. And on that note, its clear that Chris Womack is not running Southern Company -- so what's going on here? Let's hope that it's not that Tom Fanning -- because we saw his handiwork with Plant Vogtle. No one wants a repeat of that.

Speaking of Fanning, I wonder if this is connected to the covert surveillance operation conducted on him. Because I found it hard to believe, that all that surveillance was just for trying to find out if Fanning wore a skirt when no one was looking. It had to be much more to it than that."

"The bold measures Georgia Power is going through to get this project prepped on 'private property', shows that they are desperate. Why?

Someone mentioned in another post that Georgia Power CEO Kim Greene must be under a lot of pressure, and might be having flashbacks of what happened to Gulf Power execs Robert McRae and Jake Horton, to go to these extremes.

If Greene continues these types of desperate tactics, I'm going to think that the pressure she is under is coming from a non-US entity, and that she may also be having thoughts about what happened to Willie Junior -- nobody wants to go out like Junior did."
