A man in Connecticut is suing his neighbor over the smell. The man claims he can't sell his house because the smell of horse manure is so strong that no one wants to buy it.
Documents filed in Superior Court claim that Gino Sciortino cannot sell him home because his neighbor Helen Catlin is allowing large amounts of horse manure to pile up on her property and the smell drifts over.
Catlin and her husband own three horses. Sciortino is asking for monetary damages and wants an injunction to order the Catlins to move their horse manure and other debris and change the soil near the property line.
David Catlin said he mixes the manure with other materials and creates compost. He then sprinkles it with lime to cut down on the smell. Officials at the local health district say they haven't had any other complaints.
