Legal Question in Mediation in California

ladder on neighbors roof

my neighbor has a ladder on his roof.

we look directly at it through our

kitchen window. he has multiple

antennas that are fastend to the

roof. it's been up there for a few

weeks now and i assume it's going to

be permanent. we're not on good

terms (his dog barks often, often,

often). the ladder is attached with a

canvass tie down. is there any legal

issue? Perhaps something?

Re: ladder on neighbors roof

I'm sorry this question has gone unanswered as long as it has; I'm going to give it my best shot.

I do not believe that an eye sore constitutes a "nuisance" in the legal sense. You live next to trailer trash and that's unfortunate, but probably not actionable. That said, you live near a major city - try searching the websites of some of the local law schools to see if they have free community mediation/conciliation centers. That could be a good avenue to air your grievance. That or Judge Judy.
