On May 7, 2012, the Court (Gerety, J.) approved a prejudgment attachment in the
amount of $30,000.00. The pattern of periodic water shut-offs continued. In May of
2012, a Vermont State Trooper was called again when there was no water in the Tenants’
home. Landlord told the trooper that the Tenants were “parasitic maggots.” His
probation officer continued to go to Landlord’s home, and Landlord referred to the
Tenants as “freeloading squatters.” On May 25, 2012, the Tenants filed the Third Motion
for Contempt. In the summer of 2012, on one occasion, Landlord chased Nicholas
Goodwin up the road, took a swing at him, and called the members of the family
“freeloaders” and “useless squatters.”
