John built a fence around his backyard to contain his new puppy. However, he discovered that the fence violated county regulations when he received a court summons in the mail. He was informed that the fence needed to be rebuilt to comply with standards for height, visibility, and post spacing. After much frustration and reworking of the fence with help from friends, John was able to get the fence approved by the inspector just before the court date. However, he lost money having to modify the fence from his original design without first getting it permitted.
