Question
Hello Rabbi, My neighbor upstairs has a garden, and his tree has grown, with many branches extending from his property into mine. Branches and black balls constantly fall onto my roof, and with the rain, it washes into my garden, dirtying it and clogging the hole through which rainwater drains from my balcony outside. This causes flooding, dirties the artificial grass, and causes damage. What should the owner of the tree do?
Answer
Hello,
The general rule here is 'the injured party must remove the damage themselves'.
