Resolving a Neighbour Dispute
छिमेकी विवाद समाधान
Context: A person seeks advice about a dispute with their neighbour over noise and a shared fence.
Mediator
You've contacted the Community Justice Centre about a dispute with your neighbour. Can you tell me what's been happening?
निवासी
मेरो छिमेकीले राति ढिलोसम्म चर्को म्युजिक बजाउँछ। त्यसपछि भित्ते बारको बारेमा पनि विवाद छ।
Mediator
Have you spoken to your neighbour about these issues directly?
निवासी
मैले कोसिस गरें तर उनी सुन्दैनन्। एक पटक झगडा पनि भयो।
Mediator
I understand it's frustrating. We can offer free mediation where both parties meet to discuss the issues and try to reach an agreement. It's voluntary but very effective.
निवासी
उनीले ध्वनि प्रदूषण नियम उल्लंघन गरेको हो कि होइन?
Mediator
In NSW, residential noise must not be offensive between ten PM and seven AM. You can report excessive noise to your local council or call the police if it's ongoing.
निवासी
बारको बारेमा भने, बार पुरानो भएको छ र दुवैतिरबाट खर्च बाँड्नुपर्छ होइन?
Mediator
Under the Dividing Fences Act, neighbours generally share the cost of a dividing fence equally. If you can't agree, the council can help determine a fair solution.
निवासी
ठीक छ, मध्यस्थता गरौं। कहिले गर्न सकिन्छ?
Mediator
I'll contact your neighbour and offer mediation. If they agree, we can schedule it within two weeks. The service is completely free and confidential.
