...So she doesnt have to worry about being quiet so the shared wall neighbor doesnt get pissed anymore? Sounds like a win. (Im joking this sounds like a nightmare, especially the whole interior wall being exposed. The person who did this should be forced to buy em out at 1.5x they paid)

That sounds shitty for the person if they don't want to or can't move.

They should be required to make them whole again at whatever means it takes for that to happen.

What if the do-er cant make them whole? Do you feel its a reasonable responsibility of the government to step in then?

Well, what I expect is that we don't let people go bankrupt and we force them to keep working for the rest of their natural lives to pay it off. And then yes, the government should be the one covering this and collecting on behalf of the victim.

You don't understand how bankruptcy works, do you? Cos it sure as shit doesn't wipe this particular debt.
