Judge Rules Line Fence Encroaches Neighboring Land
Jude Guneter delivered an opinion in the line fence case of Kilen Kelly of Madison Avenue versus James F Donnelly. The court found the defendant placed fence posts one inch three quarters farther onto the plaintiff land than permitted and must remove the excess. The law allows a line fence to sit on the dividing line with no more neighbor land than one has, and posts four inches thick may intrude at most two inches onto the neighbor’s land.
