What is the name of your state? Michigan
A windstorm took one of my huge oak trees (which is near the property line) and uprooted it and laid it on the neighbors house causing damage to the edge of the roof. The neighbor hired a tree company to remove the tree. The downed tree is partially on my property and partially on the neighbors. When I told the tree company that I wanted the wood, the neighbor informed me that the part of the tree that was on her property is now hers, and she is going to keep it, unless I wanted to pay for the damage and cleanup. Before the storm, all of the trunk of the tree was on my property with branches over the property line. Is she entitled to the wood that landed on her property after the storm, but was not overhanging the property line before the storm? The wood she wants to keep is very good, and she intends to log it out for the lumber.
Thanks
