What is the name of your state? Massachusetts I have land that abutts a private way. My deed states that I have use of private way and rights of way used in connection with my land, for all purpose for which rights of way are commonly used. It states that the private way is 20'. I have a neighbor who is blocking the right of way of this private way with their vehicle. I was told by the accessors office to call the police and the police stated they can't do anything. I was told of a law (title 720) from a local law library which basically states that no one can block any street or private way and will be towed. I was also told by someone in the area that everyone owns half way out onto the street. When I retrieved my deed and lot map, I noticed that this neighbor has a enclosed porch built onto the street. I also know that the prior owner built the porch, but I don't know yet if they had permission. I have been in that area the longest of all neighbors. What are my rights and is there anything I can file in court to make this neighbor from blocking this private way. Thanks
