In the 1700's, municipalities mapped roads in survey journals, yet many were never built - nor were they properly discontinued and remain public rights-of-way today. These rights-of-way have become the focus of several land disputes. Vermont is at the forefront to legislatively address this nationwide issue. In Parcel 141, author Kate Chatot documents her personal experience with a decade long legal case involving a road with an unidentified status, prescriptive law and current property rights. This legal case evokes a strong sense of confusion, frustration, a sense of injustice, and ultimately justice. Parcel 141 confronts one with the virtue of patience and aptly imparts the lesson that the wheels of justice do grind, but slowly. This is Kate Chatot's first book. It chronicles her personal experience with a decade long challenge to protect her family's property rights. Her main mission warns of the repercussions when taking risks involving property law. The book evolved into a mission to educate others about Vermont's Legislative Ancient Road Bill - Act 178 - passed during its 2006 session. She is a native Vermonter and resides in Cabot, Vermont.
