Default Can I cut the branches of my neighbors trees?

You can cut the branches on your side without his consent because they

True. Just don't kill the tree next door.

In my area, you trim what is over your own property. I haven't read the
code in a while, but I think there is something that says you cannot
mutilate a tree - cut off all branches on one side, etc. Some
neighborhoods have special historic trees, etc., so be sure that there
isn't some special protection.

Is that the only tree that drops leaves in your yard?
