Our neighbor has a mulberry tree real close to the fence line and I trim it back at the fence line a couple of times a year. Towards the end of the summer there are branches high enough that I have to pay our landscape guy to trim it. I have never thought of asking the neighbor to do anything about it. I HAVE thought of various ways of killing the damn thing but that's just a fantasy.

While I trim my own trees to the fence line as I don't want to make my neighbor pay to trim my tree that is hanging in his yard, I was under the impression that it is their responsibility and I had no say in it as long as they didn't hurt the tree.

It's not necessarily their responsibility, it's their right to trim it back without legal provocation.

From what I've read, this is the correct legal way to look at it. They CAN, they don't have to.
