What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? California
I am currently having a broken lawn sprinkle issue with my neighbor and she is so unwilling to resolve the issue personally between me and her.
She has a broken lawn sprinkle system that automatically turned on every other day to water her lawn. Her sprinkle has a substantial leaking every time it was turned on. So the leakage water will drain to my concrete side yard resided between her and my properties.
So every other day, it will leave a big pool of water the size about 2 feet by 10 feet long on my side yard. And I have a 3 years old daughter running around outside the house so often that I afraid she may slip and injure herself. So I have to sweep the water away to prevent injury to her every time she wants to go outside play.
The water also seeks underneath my outdoor storage room and I can see it will damage my storage room in long term. It also annoys me every time I go to my side yard and it is wet.
I've talked to her a few times and showed her the problem, but she was so unwilling to resolve the issue by giving me the same reasons again and again that she currently does not has the money to fix the sprinkle and it is very normal that water flow to lower level to my side yard just by common physic. I advised her to turn off her sprinkle then, but she said she cannot do that because that will kill her lawn especially in the summer season.
Is there a legal way that I can persue to have her turn off or fix her sprinkle system?
