The zoning officer (in Scranton, PA) issued a baseless notice of violation against a rental property.
I appealed to the Zoning Hearing Board. They decided against me, and upheld the violation.
I, then, appealed to the Court of Common Pleas, and the judge decided in my favor. Not only that, but the judge criticized the zoning officer and the zoning hearing board for ignoring clear decisions by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court which supported my position that I was never in violation and that the notice of violation should have never been written.
Now, can I sue the zoning officer, the city, and the zoning hearing board, for my damages? or, do they enjoy some kind of immunity?
