All this technological advancement...

I was reading the news and came across and article about a southern California family that lost everything in their home when it was siezed for forclosure.  The home was boarded up, the contents taken away to the dump.  Only one problem:  They didn't have a loan on the house.  Its a minor detail, I guess, since banks have been doing it for years.  However, this led me down another rabbit hole that i didn't think about, incorrect demolition. 

I saw a story on a house in Little Rock that was incorrectly demolished.  A quick google search showed immediate results in Texas, Pittsburgh and one in Georgia where the demolition company did not relay on pesky thinks like an address written on a document, they had GPS coordinates!  GPS coordinates do you no good when you have no idea what side of the street it is on.  Guess who guessed wrong?  (Perhaps they could speak to Lawdog about GPS...)

Is it really so hard to get an original copy of the order on paper, even, and maybe confirm the address?  Oh, wait, don't tell me, they have an app for that?
