Any part of the tree that is on your property is yours to do as you
please.

And can be day one of a war with your neighbor. I've had some nice
neighbors and some bonehead neighbors. Sometimes the best thing is to try
to work things out and keep them as friends, and then if that doesn't work
just fire up the chain saw and cut six inches OVER the property line on your
property so there's no doubt and you don't get HIS tree limbs.

Warring with neighbors can be fun.
