My back neighbor's fence is on my property anywhere from 1 inch up to
6 inches in places. We have known about this since we moved in but
felt that 6 inches wasn't anything to really worry about. However,
this neighbor has been nothing but a pain in the behind. Last year
he tried to claim 2 feet of our yard because a next-door neighbor was
putting up a fence. He hired a company to survey the property which
clearly shows the fence is on my property. Now he is blowing his
yard waste through the fence and into my yard along with any
sticks/branches that fall from his trees over the fence into my yard.
We had planned on ignoring the 6 inches but now I want him to move
the fence in accordance with city ordnance of 6 inches inside the
property line.

We have been dealing with his unstable ways for 7 years now and I've
had my limit. He was blowing leaves into our yard last night and I
politely stated, "Mr. Howard I would appreciate it if you did not
blow your yard waste into my yard." He became very belligerent and
hostile, accused me of having an unkempt yard and kept calling me
sweetheart. He said "There's nothing you can do to stop me
sweetheart." Sorry but that just sounds like a challenge to me and
I've had enough of his condescending ways towards women.

Two questions: Can I legally make him move the fence in a set period
of time? Can I legally remove the fence that is on my property?

There is a little known law, named "Eddie's law". You really should take
advantage of it. Basically it works like this: for each inch your neighbor
is using, you can charge up to $500 per year, per inch. I suggest filing a
claim in court. You do not need an attorney, just file with the clerk of
courts, they will hand you an "Eddie's law" form.
