Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Colorado

Compensation for damage

Next door neighbors are renters. Over the past 4 yrs, their kids have plastered our wall with paint balls, mud, broken slates in our fence, climbed over the fence for toys and climbed ontop of our trailer. We would like the 'owner' of the house, through the property mgmt co, pay for the repairs and cleanup. Is that possible?

Re: Compensation for damage

Certainly, though damages older than three years before the time you file a small claims suit won't be covered. You might try asking the owner first if he would pay reasonable repairs; invite him or her out to look at the damage, give them some coffee, talk about how wonderfully destructive small children are, etc.

Good luck.
