Well, it sounds like they are looking for excuses not to pay. Hopefully you took plenty of pictures.
Also you should have a right to examine those depositions, and I would get your hands on them asap.
You don't know what nastiness they have in store for you.

: During a heavy wind and rain storm in December, 1996
: a neighbor's 125 foot pine tree uprooted and crashed
: into my yard. The tree knocked over a Canary
: Island Date Palm, a 600-year-old oak tree and a
: a power pole which dominoed into my neighbor's
: yard across the street. My front yard and landscaping
: was destroyed and it took several months to clear
: out the debris at great expense. I filed a suit
: against the neighbor's insurance company GOLDEN
: EAGLE INSURANCE. The company took a nose dive into
: bankruptcy and has been fighting this claim ever
: since. We are scheduled for trial and it doesn't
: make sense. All I wanted was to be reimbursed for
: the $30K it has cost to clear the yard and get it
: relandscaped. The cost to replace the tree is
: $70K, but I am so sick of this, I am ready to
: redesign the yard and be happy with the 30K which
: they are fighting tooth and nail. I never thought
: it would get this far. Another thing that is
: bizaar is that at this late date, just a month
: away from the trial, Golden Eagle's counsel is
: holding depositions with my neighbors. Is this
: a good point for our side or bad. Oy veh, when
: it rains, it pours --cliched out. tweemz
