Nobody is liable for an act of nature. It does not matter who owned the tree. If a tree falls on your house just call your insurance company.

If it just fell in your yard and did not damage your property you just have to get it removed yourself.

If it's partially on your property and partially on the property of another, then each property owner is responsible for removing that part on their own property.
