David Englett Fined For Not Cutting Grass Of His Foreclosed Home (VIDEO): Mowing the lawn may be an awful chore, but imagine having to pay a fine for not cutting the grass of a house from which you were evicted.
David Englett of Crowley, Texas is being charged after he didn't pay a series of Arlington city fines for, among other things, not mowing the lawn of a home he had already lost to foreclosure, local news CBS 11 reports (h/t The Consumerist). Englett had also been fined for owning an alarm without the necessary permit and for a fence in bad shape.

I imagine that there are enough regulations on the books in this country that I and everyone else in the country could be found in violation of one or more of them at any given time!
Yes, people are always surprised to learn what they're responsible for even after they've lost (or are in the process of losing) their home. I think that until the house is legally the responsibility of the bank, this man will be on the hook for all maintenance-related costs.
