Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York
BackYard Trees
I live in Brooklyn, New York: The trunk of a tree in my backyard sits on both my and my neighbors' property line-Can my neighbor make me chop it down? And what is the law if one of us wants to keep the tree, while the other doesn't?

You each have the right to chop away the part on your property.
