Re: destruction of private property

There is no great way to address the problem. You could try contacting your county Magistate and see if a restraining order could be issued. I have never heard of a restaining order for something like this, but you could try. Other than that, you might try puting up No Trespassing signs and then asking another neighbor to call the police for you, or call you if they see it happen and then you call the police. Possibly a strong letter from an attorney threatening to sue them if it continues might help. Unfortunately there is no easy way to resolve this. Good luck.
