    I don't know, but that would be a very pointless and childish thing to do.

    What logical reason could you use for doing such a thing?
    Is the root damaging anything on your property?
    Or, do you have some grude against him?
    Trees provide too many benefits to be so thoughtlessly destroyed.
    You need to get a life.

    I think you can do what you want with your own property. In the name of being a good neighbor, though, I would advise you not to do anything like that.

    Besides, the tree is good for shade on both your properties.

    I would talk to your neighbor first but I would say you have a right to do what you want on your own property specially if it's killing your grass or an eye sore. just try and be civil with him and not strike up a fight, he had know idea where the routs would grow

    If you and your neighbor can't agree on a solution, it becomes a legal issue. Check this link:

    i may be wrong about this, but earth does not belong to the property owner in cities after a dertain depth. the city owns it. this is how the city handles all the legal issues of having their power lines and pipes under ground. so, technically, the root may belong to the city. i wouldnt do anything to the tree anyway. if you want to get back at your neighbor, a better way would be to light a bag of shit on fire and throw it onto his porch and rign the doorbell. its amazing how funny this is. im 30 years old and still think its so entertaining.
