Encroachment

The plaintiff alleges his neighbors, the defendants, ripped out his fence, so he's suing. The defendants insist the fence was on their property, so they had every right to take it out.

[@linedanzer4302]

The right thing to do is to get a survey done BEFORE you start ripping apart fences on property lines. Not tear it down first, then tell the neighbor to pay for a surveyor.

[@anacondaadultlearningcente4522]

If you are going to make changes--construction/destruction to anything on a property line then it is YOU you gets the survey BEFORE work starts.

Though, we can still have crazy fencing wars in Aus. Many years ago, I bought an old house with existing fencing. On one side, there were THREE fences! On my side was a 6 ft wooden fence. Then, one inch away is a 4 ft rotten timber posts and torn rusty chain link fence. Next to that was a nice 6 ft metal panel fence. I was puzzled, but, oh well. My 6 ft timber fence was also rotten and falling down. We had young children, so the first thing we did was start to remove these hazards. I knew the 4 ft middle fence had to be the original boundary fence. I called the local council and received permission to remove the boundary fence as the posts were on my land, AND it was a legitimate hazard. We then put up a new 6 ft wooden fence on the unfenced part of our property. Our neighbours were furious. Now, I thought there would be a problem with them, which is why I contacted the local council. I introduced myself shortly after we moved in, and I was told the story of the fences. Well, 10 years previously, they wanted to replace the boundary fence with the metal fence. The previous owners of my house refused to go half. A big fight ensued, and the neighbours lost. They then built the new fence beside the property line and left the old fence in place. The previous owners of my place then built a 6 ft wooden ' Spite' fence on their side of the boundary fence! SMH. The neighbours then told me that as I now own the house.... I owe them for half the cost of their 10 year old fence. I said NO and left shortly after. About 2 weeks later, I received a letter from a solicitor demanding the money. I call, said NO, end of the matter. Nope. After removing the two rotten fences, we did not put up another fence along that side. I was not going to waste money and labour building another 'Spite' fence! The neighbours were furious because.... we were stealing and having the use of their land! They were referring to the 4 inch wide strip of land between the metal fence posts. WTF. Long story short, they went to court and got an injunction against me to prevent me from..."building any structures on their property." The 4 inches! I laughed when I received the letter. Not a problem. I planted a garden. 🌻 This happened a little over 39 years ago, and I still chuckle about it sometimes.

Winging it where you "think" the boundary line is not the way to go and can cause a neighbor to get upset rightfully so in some jurisdictions.

Yes, the defendants were wrong to rip down the fence without doing a survey & as they are doing the construction, the onus is on them to do the survey & pay for it. However. I do not see the point of the lawsuit at all, because the defendant was going to put back up a fence anyway. So what is the point of suing for a fence when the defendant was going to erect one? And I am sure that the one they were going to erect was going to be better & more expensive than the $2000 one the plaintiff choose. But...that is what happens when you live around miserable older people.

[@kellywilliamson2187]

I have learned that my interest in these People's Court episodes are heavily influenced by how cute the plaintiff or defendant are . . . Stupid involuntary reproductive instinctual behavior - argh!

In some jurisdictions, if a fence has been standing unchallenged for 35 years that becomes the new property line.

[@randys6220]

My area is only 12 years. It also includes if someone paves their driveway too wide and enroaches onto the neighbor's property.

[@cobravids]

If my neighbor was going to tear out our shared fence and rebuild a better fence I would shake their hands and say thank you.

[@fitnessfocused]

It isn’t a shared fence. They were encroaching on his property.

[@TheArrogantGoddess]

Um no

So you were the one who sent her the love letter?? 😂

[@thomgage7083]

​@natinati5800 . I sent Judge Milian a love letter and I have the restraining order to prove it.

he looks much too old for her

[@randys6220]

Way too old. Creep range.

[@Bashabeatzzz]

In the US you can call police and sue people very easily, in other countries police isn’t coming for a fence or loud music

Seems like the daughter became “woke” …and caused a conflict in the family.

I HAVE A NEIGHBOR NOW FROM HELL I'VE OWNED MINE FOR 29YRS NOW. VERY INTRUSIVE I'VE HAD TO CALL THE POLICE NUMEROUS TIMES THEY MADE HER MOVE ITEMS ASAP ON THE SPOT & DIDN'T LEAVE UNTIL EVERYTHING WAS GONE CUTTING DN SEVERAL BUSHES ETC.....I DON'T KNOW WHY FOLKS BOTHER SHIT THEY KNOW ISN'T THERE'S PLAY VICTIM & ENTITLEMENT. THE DEFENDANT SHOULD'VE JUST HAD A COMPANY COME REPAIR IT

[@michaelgrabianowski6567]

I don't understand how people can live so close to each other, fence or no fence.

[@carriequintano2200]

But I don't understand is they were going to put a better fence, but he doesn't want it

[@narajuna]

Lot of dont worry, at one point better to worry, Defense talks about after the no worry? What has the Ganesh figure have to do with anything ? Yes maybe not, no idea... Dont really agree, if you paid it even if cross line still yours but not protected.

[@KayB-l5h]

I don't get how Judge is tryna be nasty to the plaintiff like he really doctored an estimate when she said almost the same price. Putting stipulations on how he gets his money. He can easily get a cheaper fence now and doctor up a invoice 😆 considering if one can go back there against the brick wall they had installed. They knew it was his fence otherwise why inform him of the work and nobody would touch it.

[@JosiahTT]

plantiff sounds like he's from the caribbean, maybe trinidad

[@KayB-l5h]

I knew the issue was gonna be the daughter as soon as she started speaking when Judge addressed her dad. I assumed she was gonna translate but he speaks very well. He probably would've paid it from the jump but she said no no.

[@3l3llala13]

Awkward living next to a neighbor whom you used to be good friend with and now is not on any sort of speaking term. The two houses are almost touching each other.

[@Charlene-fi1sr]

Whether or not the letter/cheque incident was true, it was 4 years before the fence and has nothing to do with the current legal issue. And it was interesting to see how she kept interrupting her father when he tried to speak. I think she's used to getting her own way most of the time (only child?), and thought that would be the case this time also.

[@bgoodorhell4u]

If the post is on your side it’s your fence..

The plant sprung up from the ground and depicted a figure from his religion. What a shocker😂
