Default Re: Jacaranda trees fence line

Exactly, the legislation does nothing for prevention.

What Liz can see is when the tree trespasses she (the victim) undergoes a lot of rigmarole to defend her case. Hardly a proper system and has it's flaws.

Then when the tree has grown larger ....

No one can force a neighbour to do anything with a sapling that has yet grown into a problem mate...and frankly nor should they be able to.....just think that through eh?
But a tree owner can to a degree force neighbours to do something. So whilst you can smugly say too bad for the neighbour whilst it's a sapling for every year that sapling grows it's like the pendulum swinging against Liz in this case, and the outcomes of the cases show that. Then the sapling becomes a tree and Liz loses ... think that through, loses rights on her own property.

I did read one case where Judge Judy recommended the removal of Bunya nuts on a frequent basis, pretty tough task for any climber when there's targets beneath.
