Fallen Tree

[j1beans]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NJ
My neighbor has parked their car on the street in front of my house. There is a large tree on my front lawn that may fall and damage their car during Hurricane Irene. Am I liable in any way if it does?

Is the tree obviously dead, dying or otherwise in need of an arborists care?

Nope, pperfectly healthy. Just very tall.

I don't specifically know NJ law, however I believe it would be deemed an act of God. You would not be liable. Do they hate that car, that much?
