What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TEXAS
I have a question about a retaining wall. The retaining wall is “holding back” our neighbors yard/land – in other words their backyard is higher up than ours is. Whose responsibility is the wall? I read somewhere that it is the responsibility of the uphill neighbor to keep their land from falling into the downhill or lower property – that the person responsible for a retaining wall is the one whose dirt is being retained. Is this true?
