Acclaimed Florida developer gets down and dirty fighting over canal
Marshall Gobuty, a Florida developer, is embroiled in a legal battle with Cortez residents over ownership of a 1,400-foot canal. He claims the canal is his property and has sued homeowners for trespassing, while they argue it belongs to them. The dispute has drawn attention to Gobuty's contrasting public image as a 'sustainable real estate developer' versus his aggressive tactics in Cortez.
