Why not just chop down the weeds, move your fence if you want, but I'd keep it an inch or so on your side, so its your alone. He does not sound like a pleasant neighbor who likes to share.<br /><br />I doubt a court would order a replacement fence back onto the property line. And why go through the aggravation?<br /><br />To get an easements, he'd have to use the land as his own for at least five years, with some pretty stringent requirements. Sounds like the lawyer is bluffing, but if the weeds are truly tall, a fire hazard, harbor rats, etc. do mow them down.

The removal allowed him exclusive use of a strip of my land and use of my newer wood fence on my land. This is an ongoing issue for the last 7 months. Now they do not allow for me to move my fence to borderline where chain link fence was. Their attorney threatened to sue me in superior court for nuisance of weed growth that had existed between two fences, reduced house value and that an easement exists for the strip of land. <br /><br />The reason for me installing the wood fence on my side was that neighbors insisted to install a new fence on my side, and after their refusal to remove the 4' high chain link fence to prevent 7 small dogs (3 mine) fighting nuisance thru chain link fence and privacy to both sides. Do I get court order to move my wood fence to borderline and neighbor to absorb legal costs, share fence costs per California Civil Code 841, and possibly fence move cost. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
