I am sending you this email in order to get your attention to a hearing that was conducted in Ripley, WV on Thursday January 19, 2023. I hope you will read the attached document which I read at the hearing. Ty R. Pistelli (Right of Way agent) and AEP council were present at this hearing. The subject of the hearing was to seize my land using Eminent Domain Laws. If this land seizure goes to trial without giving me just compensation I will give a voice to a lot of elderly landowners who let AEP seize their land illegally. This is pure elder abuse which AEP needs to correct immediately. Do what the fifth amendment of the constitution says: nor shall private property be taken for public use without just compensation.
