[QUOTE="mas038, post: 730015, member: 13761"] I was wondering if any of you have had prior experience in this area. There is an area along our property line that has never been fenced before. Last year we decided we would fence it so we asked the neighbor that shares that property line if he was interested in splitting the cost of the fence. He saind he wasn't interested in a fence. we went ahead and put up a fence and sure enough about 3 months later he turned out cattle on his place. there was no pre existing fence nor did this man previously run cattle. I guess i am just a little frustrated that he wasn't willing to help me with the cost or labor of putting up a new fence but was really quick to reap the benefits. i want to confront him about this but i was wondering if any of you knew of any legal rulings or laws that address this. It is my understanding that the neighbor is not responsible for half the cost as long as he doesn't benefit from it i.e. run livestock, however i cannot find that in writing anywhere. I am in Texas, i think some real estate laws vary from state to state. Any help is greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
