Blizzard took down neighbor's tree close to border in his back yard into
my yard.-a Figured I would have to pay for removal but they called and
said they were taking care of it.
Same thing happened a couple of years ago when one of my trees fell into their yard and I paid for it.-a The tree actually spanned his driveway
and he and his BIL cut that part before I could get a tree cutter in.
Good neighbors are like that as otherwise if it is in your yard it is
your responsibility unless you can show it should have been removed as
it endangered your property or house.-a One of my BIL's had insurance pay for tree removal that endangered neighbor's garage.
Just brought it up here as an interesting situation.

Around 40 years ago one of my neighbor's trees fell on my house in a storm ... he had been warned numerous times that it needed attention or
this was going to happen . And he blew me and everybody else that warned
him off .
My insurance took care of the damage and paid the going rate for
removal , which I did myself . Then they went after him and his
insurance since it was obviously preventable . Next thing ya know
there's a 6 foot chain link fence and we ain't friends no more .

so much for Robert Frost's famous line from his poem, Mending Wall. The line, "good fences make good neighbors". I guess your neighbor misread
the poem. You must live in a very stable neighborhood. Forty years
later neither of you have moved!

I don't know if that a**hole till lives there ... we moved from that neighborhood in 1987 and have never looked back . We don't even live in Memfrica any more , though we still own property there . The neighbors
here in The Holler are some of the best people I've ever lived near ...
