I know some of the West Paterson building and zoning people. They can be....a difficult bunch, sometimes. Not bad folks, just difficult.
Your son needs to have a lawyer (a different lawyer from the one who bought the house for him) take a look at this and see what can be done.
I would not even want to guess at what happened without taking a careful look at all the Boro records and the documents.
Call if you would like an attorney to assist. You can then decide how you would like to proceed.
