US - Nov 1, 2026 - A Texas woman kept emus, ostriches, goats and 30 chickens on her 14-acre homestead, prompting a feud over property rules; the state's Supreme Court has now blocked her neighbours' broad demand to inspect the land - In a significant ruling, the Texas Supreme Court has sided with Pamela Bosco, affirming her right to keep her 14-acre homestead intact. The court denied neighbors' requests for property inspections due to insufficient evidence of alleged violations. This ruling underscores the importance of legal processes in property disputes and confirms that establishing wrongdoing necessitates proper evidence gathering.
