A: I would suggest seeking a temporary restraining order if there is a threat of immediate harm. However, it would be a good idea to first contact the neighbor to try the resolve the matter without court proceedings.

Consider consulting with a local land use attorney to review your options.

A: If there is an imminent harm to your interest, petition the court for a Temporary Restraining Order, to stop the process. Then, you will need to to adjudicate your night for a permanent injunction. Consult a local real estate lawyer with more facts and a better advice. Good luck.
