Default Fences and Lot Lines

get the survey done, the lot line marked (I cut aluminum conduit into 12" lengths and
had the surveyor drive those in along the lot line cause they dont rot or fall out.).
the sooner you do it, the better. Ingrid

I need an answer but don't know where to look on the internet. Has anyone
got any ideas about this?

There is about 800 feet of fence between us and a neighbor. The neighbor
recently put up a new fence. When ever a tree had grown up on the lot line
he put the fence on our side thus putting the trees on his side of the
fence. In most cases this meant a foot or more of our property on his side
of the fence.

I believe the law used to say if the fence remained there for 20 years, the
land on his side was the neighbors.

This means that the neighbor took aboutg 800 square feet of land. That/'s a
lot of land. Does anyone know where I can find out what we can do about
this.

Thanks a bunch.
