Re: Tree overhang
Since I am not licensed in Nevada I can only speak in common law terms. The general rule is that when a tree or other protrusion is thrust upon your property which causes deminished enjoyment of the land then you can remedy the situation. In your case, this can include cutting of branches and limbs.
