A self-styled lady of the manor is planning a legal battle against her local community council after it disbanded in an attempt to remove her.
At a meeting on Thursday it was unanimously decided to dissolve Ardgay and District Community Council in Sutherland.
However, moments later a petition was lodged for it to be reformed.
Samantha Kane – a member of the now dissolved community council – claims the move was fuelled by bias against her.
The landowner wants Scotland's top court to declare the decision unlawful.
