Actually, I sued Charter and won. They semi-buried a satellite cable in my yard with a loop poking up in grass alongside my driveway. I stepped off the sidewalk, caught my foot, fell and fractured the C-6 and C-7 vertebrae (in my neck). I asked them to cover just my medical bills (for MRI's and the physical therapy). They refused to return phone calls. I found out they had done the same thing when another woman in this area had been hurt by equipment they'd left in her house. So I got p.o.'d and sued. and won. Part of the agreement was that they weren't allowed to park anywhere near my property and they had to remove their satellite dish from my yard. The dish is still there - I'm using it as a stake for my Carolina jessamine and they can't use our driveway to cut off the cable to the poor old people in the assisted living behind us.
