QUESTION
What is my statue of limitations on an encroached fence - property in CA?
Asked on May 21st, 2013 on Zoning, Planning and Land Use - California
More details to this question:
I bought a property 3 years ago in CA. A fence was built prior to my ownership that encroached on my property. How long do I legally have to pursue the neighbor to move their fence? I've read 3 years or 5 years. I've had the land surveyed and they indeed are on my property. thanks
