I would think the neighbour has dammaged this tree even though he has not
killed it. He is not allowed to do that. Given that he is obviously not a
very friendly neighbour Sue him.

So even if the tree overhangs your garden you can't trim it back if its
involves damaging the tree? who decides what constitutes damage i.e. can
it be aesthetic?
