What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
My neighbor had a survey done on our mutual boundary after thinking one of the corners was wrong, the survey proved my corner correct but the line between the two corners has now been marked as a curve instead of the straight line indicated by both the map and wording of my deed. I have not seen the survey to see if it is a "legal" survey, but am pretty sure it is incorrect. There are wood stakes, metal stakes, ribbons tied to trees and limbs, and trees are spray painted, but they are definately not in a straight line. Can he immediately enforce the line change or do I have the right to demand to see the survey to determine if it was even a legal survey and then be allowed to contest it or do I have to get my own survey? Also did the surveyor have the right to come onto my property which has a locked gate and well posted with no trespassing signs? I told the neighbor to leave my property and not return 2 weeks ago, but have pictures of him, the surveyor and others clearly on my property (even beyond what would be reasonable for the survey) from this weekend from a trail camera I had overlooking the gate.
Thank You
