Then go ask him if you can cut the trees.
Making excuses won't make it right to do it any other way.

Yes sir, I had that 4 years ago, tree branch about 4” diameter extending 25 ft across my drive in front of the garage. Tree sits on both sides of the property line. Neighbor wasn’t happy when I had that branch cut back to the tree but legally I could. I couldn’t legally kill the tree but could trim what was on my property.

I'll try to remember that.

If I recall correctly, Euell Gibbons recommended sumac and elderberry berries in some water as a cool, refreshing summer drink too.

All this info in just a little over 2 hours according to my pages too. Must be a hot topic.

I don't give 2 $hits its not your tree or your land. Your probably the same guy that would post on here like a maniac if your neighbor killed your tree and how u got the law involved and the lawsuit your bringing against him. If you don't like the neighbors move. Living where u do isn't a prison sentence u can leave any time you want. Maybe go talk to the guy like a f'ing man and say hey I'd like those trees to not grow to full size next to the fence. If he tells you to F off then I guess your gonna have some new trees to look at.

I did that once

they never answered the door, thought the door frame was gonna catch on fire. So I ran back over and used his water hose to put it out.

What a mess

Ashes, partially cooked dog shît. I’m sure the confusion read like a Far Side comic when they finally seen the remnants of the failed assault.

Call the city. Since you clearly live in one and don't get out much.

Do you happen to live next door to Wayne Shaw and have some several or more Sumac trees, per chance ?

Asking for a friend.

Yeah, it would have been even funnier if he would have gotten done watering down the fire and then put the hose through the mail slot into the house?

Seems I remember that happening to a house once that contained folks some other folks didn't like. Big frogs and stuff went through that slot a few times too, I heard.

Actually that varies from state to state. But this general rule of thumb is what Nebraska goes by.

A property owner has the right to trim branches and roots that encroach onto her property from a tree belonging to a neighbor, but must exercise caution when trimming a tree or its roots. The following general rules apply to trimming a tree:

The tree can only be trimmed to the property line.
There is no right to trespass onto a neighbor’s property to trim a tree unless the limbs threaten to cause immediate and irreparable harm.
The tree cannot be cut down or otherwise destroyed to eliminate the problem. It can only be trimmed back.
The expense of the trimming is borne by the party doing the trimming

That's a possible solution if it's a code violation. But as someone here posted already, the Authorities may not GAS or have the financial resources to deal with it either.

I'm thinking it might be best to talk to said neighbor and be prepared for an answer similar to "I like my trees", as it seems the neighbor lets his fencelines go wild.

Some folks like manicured grounds..................others not so much.

Good morning Geno,

I am thinking 33 pages as things stand right now, but if the libations start to flow it could go 45.

Quite truthfully, I would respect a neighbour who came and talked to me about the problem, and I would be more than willing to work with him as he showed me he gave a damn about doing it right. I have a big problem with gutless humans, male or females. don't matter which.

Three categories of friends I don't own, and family I don't keep around, gutless, useless, and stupid. Makes life just a little less annoying.

Personally if someone killed anything on my land/property, life would get interesting for them.

I hope you have a good day, and that life might just bless you with something extra special today smile

I had to go clear to the Texas Hill Country in the fall to find any, grows like a weed back east. Sumac berries alone dye a not-very-colorfast golden brown.

Be warned though, mix it with the copper II sulfate solution and it dyes everything right now, permanently. Wear kitchen gloves.
