Default Who Is Responsible For My Neighbors Tree Hanging In My Yard?

The part that needs to be cut is about 30 up. The limb(s) are so long
that they can't support their own weight and they (2 of them) are now
hanging over my lawn and I can touch them.


They also make a chain saw, without the motor, that attaches to two
ropes. You throw one rope over the limb, pull up the chain, then pull
it back and forth until you cut the limb off. I have no idea how long
this takes.

If you can't throw the rope up, you can use a slingshot, with a bolt
in it. Ham radio shows even sell slingshots with fishing reels
attached to make it easier to get the line where you want it, but they
are almost 100 dollars. iirc.
