What constitutes harassment by a neighbor?

In: Property Law [Edit categories]

Answer:

Answer

YOU WOULD HAVE TO DEFINE WHAT IT IS HE IS DOING TO HARASS YOU.IT MIGHT NOT BE HARASSMENT IN THE EYES OF THE LAW.IF THE MAN HAS HIS DOG DEFICATE ON YOU LAWN,IF HE PLAYS LOUD MUSIC AFTER A SETAIN TIME OF NIGHT THAT WOULFD BE HARASSMENT.SAY HGIS LAWN MOWER IS TOO LOUD NO.YOU REALLY HAVE STATE WHAT HE OR SHE IS DOING.

It might actually depend on which state you live in, but where I live, harassment seems to include what you'd expect; bodily harm, provoking a violent response by calling names in public, telephonic or electronic threats. The best advice I've read is to smile through it all and record with a pocket voice or tape recorder and write down all incidents. A cop told me not to call him before trying to work it out myself, so it will look good to the police if you've already taken the neighborly approach before you involve them.
