Best Answer

A neighbor cannot make you cut a tree down.

BUT if your tree encroaches on a neighbor's property, causes a risk to a neighbor or their property, or causes a situation that prevents a neighbor from full enjoyment of their property, the neighbor can ask a court to make you cut back the limbs that are causing problems for their property. Your rights end where the property line begins; same for your neighbor.

What if you dont want a fence on a common boundary?

Then put it on your side of the boundary ( be sure by locating property lines exactly) then make sure you're conforming to your local building code as to height and other restrictions. That way if your neighbor doesn't like it he can't force you to take it down. ===A Different Perspective=== If you DON'T want a fence on your common boundary it sounds like your neighbor DOES want one. As long as your neighbor follows the local ordinances that control fences there is nothing you can do if they want to erect a fence providing the fence conforms to local regulations.

If neighbor A took down a garage and it caused the neighbor's retaining wall to fall, they (neighbor A) should be responsible for cleaning up the mess.
