Neighbor sued for smoking in condo??

Question

I just heard of this a few minutes ago on the news and wanted to get some feedback on it. Apparently a non smoking neighbor is suing a smoking downstairs neighbor because the smoke is getting into her condo. I am a smoker and I do my best to not smoke around other non smokers and do believe that because it is my choice to smoke others should not have to suffer. However I do feel this is a little rediculous. I just can't believe the smoke is that serious from a downstairs neighbor. If it is then the condo should be insulated better. Whats your opinion on this??

Answer 1

It's not just the smoke. I have 3 children. I quit smoking because I don't want my sons to wind up with cancer from my second hand smoke. But then new neighbors moved into the condo next door (I own, they rent) and my house is constantly full of smoke. It's not ridiculous to want to sue. I'd do it, too, if I had the money.
