A Florida couple have been ordered to take up a carpet - from their front garden.

Steve and Mildred Nadwairski say they covered their lawn with carpet because they had had no luck with grass seed. They could not afford to spend￡160 on turf so decided to put carpet on the lawn of their Port Richey Home. Mr Nadwairski said he didn't think it was written anywhere that you couldn't have carpet on your front lawn. But the couple fell foul of a byelaw forbidding the collection of "public nuisance items" such as junk cars and appliances. A prosecutor argued that included old carpet and a court agreed.

Neighbours seemed pleased with the ruling. One says the carpeting, which is wet all the time, looks "nasty."

佛罗里达州波特里奇市一对夫妇在他们屋前的花园铺上地毯，把草坪盖住，因为他们觉得草籽会坏了他们的好运气，同时，他们说付不起打理草坪所需的160英镑。当地法院命令这对夫妇把地毯移走。男主人为此争辩道，没有条文明令禁止在自家草坪上铺地毯，而检举人称，那张地毯太破旧了，就像破车等破烂玩意儿，给公众造成了困扰，违反了“公共损害条例”。

邻居们对法院的判决都拍手称庆，说那张地毯整天都湿漉漉的，看起来“恶心死了”。
