Disputes caused by the blockage of sewer pipes between upper and lower adjacent owners in residential buildings often occur, and related stakeholders often shirk their responsibilities because of uncertainty, which makes it difficult to solve disputes in time.

If mediation fails, it should be decided that all households using the sewer pipe should share the victims' losses equally from the perspective of safeguarding public interests without exemption.
