Why is the neighbor always running? Seems like everytime you mention him he's getting some fitness in.
If that's the case, set up a few trip wires around the trees and show his arse who is boss.

How far are the trees from the property line? 10', 30' how big is the piece of property?

You aren't going to just go get something that says, geauxcats10 has perfect ownership of the land containing the trees. You need to get your deed, get your vendor's source deed, and get their vendor's source deed. They have to give you those.
Boundary Agreements are also an entire chapter in the code. There's even an article on removing markers once fixed.
You can try to do it without a lawsuit or with one. The former, you pay the neighbor a small chunk, the latter you pay the lawyer a small (i.e. large) chunk.

Louisiana Law: "the possession be "under color of title," or that the person must believe that he has the right to possess it and has some form of document or is relying on some fact that while not actually conveying title, appears to do so"
Has to do that for 10 years without anyone ever challenging it.
Some states require taxes be paid in order to adverse posses
FalseProphet indeed

If the land is how I'm imagining it...
You're going to cut down 2 mature pecans for what? Maybe 20 feet more of grass to mow? What's the point?
Why kill trees with no real reason? Why be a dick without cause?
If you have plans for that corner...then sure, cut down some beneficial trees.
If you don't...is it really worth the headache?
Are people really such dicks to their existing neighbors?
Consider this.
Once you'd been on the land a long time how would you take some upstart coming along and saying "frick you. The bank man said I can cut down these things your grandpa planted as a kid."

My idea solves all problems. Slapdick neighbor gets to look at pappy's trees every day and the OP gets his fence.

Nope. I'm one of those that understands open and obvious possession as it relates to prescription.
There really is a whole chapter on this in the Louisiana Civil Code. But, no one bothers to learn the law that governs them.

It's the neighbor who doesn't want to share the nuts; he says the land is his, not the OP's.

My favorite adverse possession story is this homeless guy in Miami in coconut grove.
Back in the day the army dredged a channel in biscayne bay, creating federal land (a few spoil islands) on water bottoms. This homeless Cuban guy lives out there.
He has filed petitions in federal court for possession bc he lived there the required 7 years. Except he filed at like 6 years, 11 months.
The city took notice and picked him up and he spent a few notes in he clink, negating his possession claims somehow.
The islands would be worth millions if he could gain ownership.

We get it; you are an attorney. Why are you so bitchy?

Somehow I believe both were less than cordial.
Look, if some carpetbagger all of a sudden came up and started laying claim to land I'd grown up on, I'd probably bristle too.

I'd like to think if both parties met and discussed the dispute like gentlemen, maybe an amicable solution could be reached.
That or pistols at dawn. Either Way we win.

Poor guy. He had a island all to himself but pulled the trigger to early.

Posted on 10/8/14 at 10:43 am to geauxcats10
wait, maybe I missed something along the way but why are you so intent on shopping the trees down? Do you really need to do that to build the fence or is this to spite the redneck?

Not legal advice*******
That's good-faith acquisitive prescription. There is also AP that doesn't rely on good faith, but it appears you neglected that (and so did that table).
