What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? PA
When my family moved in, my neighbor had a fence along the back that was at least a foot on my property, and in order to be able to enclose his backyard, he had built an additional section of fence to connect directly to my house, running another 2 feet across my yard. A couple years later he decided, since we live in a city, that he wanted a wider driveway. I went outside one day to see some random worker digging 3 feet into my front yard. When I asked him what he was doing, he said that my neighbor had told him to make the driveway nice and wide. You can see exactly where the new cement is; he didn't even bother hiding it by repaving the whole thing. A few years later, the fence started to fall so he tore it down and, rather than pull out the old posts, just moved the entire fence over another 2 feet. Now, just last week, I parked in front of my house and my neighbor got my car towed, saying I had parked blocking his driveway. I know that I had been close to the driveway line, but even so, 3 feet of the driveway is still technically my property. I had a surveyor come down and map out the property a few years after we moved in since he was giving us trouble and I was afraid it would come to this. At this point I have just had enough, and would like to know what legal action I can take against him.
