== == * You need to get into the county land department and have them look up your land and see how much you have and where it ends. Then get a copy of it, see a lawyer and have it served to your neighboring rancher. If indeed you own that land then you have the right to tear down that fence and have your neighbor put a proper fence up where his land actually starts.Don't become bad neighbors until you get a copy of the land involved. There could have been a mistake made or some misunderstandings along the way.The county assessor's office will have the original plat recorded (or should have) even so for ownership entitlement to be granted a survey of the property in question will have to be made. Generally when the land survey corresponds with the plat that is on file, litigation is not needed. DO NOT arbitrarily take down the fence; that should be done by the persons who erected the fence if the survey proves they have no legal rights to the property. If they refuse to act voluntarily, the court will then issue an order for the action and local authorities will be present to insure the order is adhered to. == == * The statutory period for making a claim of adverse possession in Tennessee is 20 years when the claimant does not have color of title. You need to seek the advice of an attorney who is experienced in land law. It would seem by your comments that your neighbor made open and notorious use of your land for 20 years, a text book example. He fenced it off for 20 years and you took no legal steps to stop him. You need to speak with an attorney ASAP.

What the function of neighbor?
A neighbor has no specified function. A neighbor is someone who lives next to you, near you, or in a larger sense all other people of the world. People are individuals and will behave as neighbors in the many different way that people behave. It is always a positive situation when your neighbor is kind, thoughtful, helpful, and respectful of you, your family, and your property. It is always a negative situation when they are not. But most neighbors, like most people have a mixture of positive and negative traits. There are no assigned duties or functions to being a neighbor.
