The landlord is more responsible for the pipes than your neighbor. If it's simply a matter of the pipes underneath his bathroom leaking onto your apartment (which does suck, and I'm sorry) then that's one thing. If, however, you neighbor knew about the issue and did not report it, allowing for the resulting damage, then he is also to blame. Nonetheless, the bulk of the burden falls squarely on the landlord.
