It will be never pleasant to have noisy neighbors
That’s exactly what Cilla Carden want to tell you. Her noisy neighbors ave become a nuisance. In fact, they’ve become so bothersome that she took them to the Supreme Court in Australia.
Carden, who is a vegan from Perth, Australia, took her neighbors to court because they continuously played basketball and used their barbecue, which, she claimed, caused her to be unable to enjoy her backyard.
“It’s been devastating, it’s been turmoil, it’s been unrest, I haven’t been able to sleep,” Carden told 9News in 2019.
For months, Carden, the massage therapist from Perth, Australia, has complained that the smell of her neighbor’s barbecue and smoking has bothered her. She has also commented on the children playing basketball.
“They’ve put it there so I smell fish, all I can smell is fish. I can’t enjoy my backyard, I can’t go out there.”
The problem became so serious that she took her neighbors to court. When her claims were rejected she applied to appeal to the Supreme Court, but was also rejected.
“It’s deliberate, that’s what I told the courts, it’s deliberate,” Carden said.
But her neighbor believes they’ve fixed the solution. 9News reportedly visited the defendant’s backyard where they were shown that the barbecue had been removed and the children had been told not to play basketball anymore.
Recently, after news of the unusual court case made headlines, a Facebook event for a community barbecue was created to let Carden know she couldn’t “destroy a good old Aussie tradition.”
However, 24,000 people responded to the event, and then police issued a warning and Carden’s lawyer threatened legal action. The barbecue was canceled.
Her actions and complaints have led many to believe she is against others eating meat, but Carden’s lawyer insists she has “no objection to people eating meat and no objection to people having barbecues.”
