Please hire an attorney an immediately. You are in way over your head and none of the things you are thinking of filing have any relationship at all to the legal issues at hand. If you continue to play lawyer you are going to lose whatever is left of your case.
Hogs up against my fence causing ungodly odor, noise, filth conditions. Sheriff's department will not help. Deed restrictions states no hogs at all !!
answered on Jan 25, 2023
Any homeowner in the subdivision has standing to enforce the deed restrictions.
You can hire an attorney to secure a permanent injunction against your neighbors for violating the restrictive convenants and seeking a money judgment for any damages caused to your property by the hogs.... Read more »
The property is owned by a conservation company and they kept doing work every dear season and they always told us they was done but then would do more work at inconvenient times.

If you didn’t sign a contract there is no agreement for this year absent an oral contract if you agreed.
I smoke weed and some person won’t get off my property harassing me i don’t want the sheriffs if I call them, searching my home and maybe planting something on me.
answered on Jan 20, 2023
Based on the facts presented, NO, they could not search you and your home...
unless they have probable cause.
Maybe have a friend with you to verify what happened.
We own a parcel of land across the state. We're part of a HOA, although our lot is separated by a half mile from the main grouping of homes that are on a cul-de-sac. The main grouping has voting rights on rules changes, but we do not. The HOA wants to change the Home Rental clause (think Air... Read more »

It is impossible to say without reviewing the HOA rules.
The 'short' answer is 'probably'
As a private entity, they can set rules however they want including the rules about amending and voting on rules. If you don't like that, you shouldn't have... Read more »
Next door neighbor owns a car (junk, not running); the car sits in the back yard between our houses. The car straddles the property line. It's been there for years. I want to clean up my back yard, get landscaping, and put up a fence. The car must be moved. But, my neighbor won't move... Read more »

IF (and that is a HUGE unknown!) the car is on your land, the neighbor is trespassing.
Are you 100% Absolutely Positively Undeniably CERTAIN of us on your land? You can have it removed but not necessarily onto the neighbor’s land — unless they neighbor consents to that. (You don’t... Read more »

You have raised several important questions which require more factual information as follows:
1) Possible merger of the lots
2) Confirmation that paper road is shown on a filed map
3) Cost of installing a road conforming to municipal requirements
4) Prescriptive... Read more »
They live at 1342 and parked in the driveway of 1351
answered on Dec 26, 2022
If they are parking in your driveway without permission, go ask them to move their car or have them towed. If it’s not your driveway, it’s none of your concern. Plus, how do you know they don’t have permission to park there from the owner?

You need to review your subdivision's governing documents and see what those documents say as to how to enforce subdivision restrictions---most of the time it says a property owner or the HOA (or even sometimes an interested party) can file the suit. Another thing you want to review and... Read more »
Have tried several times to get neighbor to meet and agree on boundary. We cannot proceed with our home.
answered on Dec 20, 2022
You will probably have to sue the other adjoining landowner for a Boundary Line Dispute. It will be difficult and expensive. It does sound like you have an expert witness, and I hope he can persuade the Judge. Quiet Title, Ejectment and Trespass may be additional causes of actions. Hire a NC... Read more »
Is parking to neighbor's driveway legal? I want to know what action can I take. I do not know the owner of the vehicle.
The vehicle is blocking my car to get out of the garage.
Thanks
answered on Dec 17, 2022
Call your local police or sheriff's department and have them tow the vehicle.
Water/sewage is stated on the lease which was signed on 2/01/2022, but as stated in Md.

I have about 1 acre on top of a bluff that a neighbor has pastured for many years. There is no fence establishing a property line. I have put a tree stand for hunting on that acre and the neighbor wants me to remove it. He says he owns it because he has been using it for many years. I have been... Read more »
answered on Dec 7, 2022
Adverse Possession of the tract is very possible here as the other landowner is exercising ownership for many years. Acquiescence to a discernible boundary line is probably not an issue. Check your payment of taxes and what property you are assessed for. This is serious and you may have to... Read more »

Anyone may improve the road subject to municipal requirements as the municipal 'owns' the right of way. If an application to vacate the private road, one half goes to each property that abuts the right of way. It would be worthwhile speaking to the municipal engineer to determine whether... Read more »

Draw the blinds? You have no options against the installer. It's remotely possible you have a claim against the homeowner. You'd have to retain an attorney to research the law to determine if you have a case.
We maintain the land and have only six feet easement beyond the road at that point in the easement. She shares the easement in that area. Since she benefits and there is no other place to put the snow, if the land I push over the embankment lands on her land is it illegal?
answered on Nov 26, 2022
Whose land is the easement on? Yours or hers? It sounds from your question that hers is the 'dominant estate' and yours is the subservient one?
If that is the case, then you are moving snow from HER land that you have a right to use, onto HER land, that you don't have a... Read more »
Neighboring owner is selling us 4.6 acres that attaches to our property.

If there is a Lien against the real property, then it remains despite any number of conveyances. It is not released because the lot becomes part of a larger tract.
The 2nd easement says under no conditions does property line prevent me from full use and access to my property's lake frontage. Nasty neighbor has blocked both from me. What can I do.
answered on Nov 22, 2022
You will need an attorney to sue in Chancery for an Injunction against their interference with your lawful use of the Easement. A title search of both adjoining tracts should be made first. Almost no chance of money recovery. If you do nothing, you lose the row.
