If person X has a tree with branches that overhang the property line onto person Y’s land, my understanding is that Y is allowed to trim those overhanging branches back to the line as long as the work doesn’t damage the tree to the point where it dies. Assuming Y pays money to perform the trimming, does X have any legal responsibility to reimburse Y for those costs, either partially or fully?
Granted, cost sharing would be the neighborly thing to do, but I’m only asking about what is or is not legal in this post. Thanks.
