Collett v. Cordovana
Annotate this CasePlaintiff owned property located in the City of Norfolk.

Plaintiff sued the Cordovanas and 1273 WOV alleging that Defendants were directing large quantities of water run-off and pollutants from their properties onto Plaintiff’s property. The trial court sustained Defendants’ demurrers. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that Plaintiff’s complaint failed to allege a valid cause of action for trespass, nuisance, negligence, and negligence per se.
