Re: Another Ahole Neighbor Question

You do realize that sometimes no matter how "nice" you play, the other person is just a wacko and will do anything and everything they can, just because they believe they are "correct" and "right"?

Re: Another Ahole Neighbor Question

I know I can count on varying opinions as to what to do here.

Background: I have a neighborhood bully who wanted to drive across my property to get to his although there was another road 20 yards away that he has been using and maintaining. We told him no and he sued us for a prescriptive easement. The case is almost a year old with no progression. His property line is about 100 feet from our house/cabin.

So for the past 2 weeks before Memorial Day, I was building a nice 20' x 12' deck off the house. Saturday we smelled a fishy smell that was bad. Lo and behold he had dumped about 30 - 40 dead fish and parts on his side of the property. He has done this twice previously in small amounts (3-5 fish) and we just shoveled it up and disposed of it properly. This time it was overboard. We called the Nebraska Game and Parks Game Warden to file a complaint because it was disposed along "a body of water" a direct violation of game laws.

My question. What would you guys do? Load it into the bucket of my tractor (Tie to TBN) and dump it on his front porch? let the law handle it? or???? BTW he has about 225 acres where he can dispose of this stuff. I have to leave soon but will check back in the morning for your thoughts.

Thanks TBN'rs.

I am rather curious what, if any, grounds he has to try to claim an easement across from your property. Aside from that, I think you've gotten good advice from those who said to let the law run it's course.

Every time I read a post like this, I find myself thankful that I have good neighbors.

Ditto.

If there is no legal reason for him to have access to your property I would make it inaccessible or at least a potentially hazardous. (ie flat tires)

It has become impassible with the trees we planted. He thinks cuz he drove there 25 yrs ago he still can. Unless and until a judge tells me different he will not pass. Sheriff will be called again.

:thumbsup: Good answer. I did have an old road across my property, which was used for years until I turned it back into a field last fall. I never had any problems, but it was well known that it would be closed the first time something went wrong.
Adverse possession is a tough case to prove, sounds like you have nothing to worry about.

Why is your lawyer allowing this to drag out?
