Pennsylvania woman’s $250,000 family farm sale remains blocked after sibling dispute

A Pennsylvania appeals court has upheld an order blocking the sale of a 60-acre family farm. The ruling stops a deal that would have allowed one sister living on the property to sell the land for $250,000 while continuing to live there under a 99-year lease. The Pennsylvania Superior Court upheld an injunction issued by a lower court at the request of the property's co-owners. The legal dispute shows how informal living arrangements involving family property can fall apart when one relative tries to sell the land without the agreement of other heirs. The case involves a rural 60-acre property in western Pennsylvania that has been in the family for generations. According to court records, one sister had lived in a house on the property for 22 years without interruption.
