"content": "Can I get in trouble for giving my neighbor his leaves back? I live in Louisiana and every year around this time I have to deal with this crap. My neighborhood is small and quiet and we generally love it, except that my neighbor is an asshole. My yard has no big trees in it and the small Crepe Myrtles I have make very little mess. My neighbor, on the other hand has a huge Live Oak and some other tree that has enormous fricken leaves. First off, he doesn鈥檛 take good care of his own yard so the leaves just pile up and eventually come into my yard, which is something I have always dealt with without making a big deal about it until a month or so ago. I came home a little early to eat lunch and he happened to be blowing off his driveway, straight into my yard. I didn鈥檛 say anything but I waited until he went inside and got my backpack blower(I own lawn service) and gave him his leaves back. Since then we have had a sort of silent war of leaves and yesterday I went outside and there were leaves literally covering my front porch and his yard was freshly cut. Not only did his mower blow the leaves in my yard but he then proceeded to blow the rest into my yard. He was outside so I asked him what his issue was and he said he had no issue and that the wind must have blown them in my yard. Bullshit, there was absolutely zero wind. So, once again, I waited until he went in and I did my thing, only this time his truck was in the driveway so it got covered and his azaleas and front porch had their fair share. He came outside and threatened to sue me, to which I asked him to please call the police if he felt that he had been done wrong in any way, and he said he was going to, but never did. My question is if it is illegal to give him his leaves back without it being considered litter or anything? I know it sounds stupid but my wife is paranoid because she just doesn鈥檛 want to deal with any BS. Thanks Tl; dr neighbor tried to give his leaves to me so I gave them back.",

"content": "My observation is that both of you are idiots and deserve to be living next to each other so the rest of the world can mock this stupid feud you have going on. Not just about who the leaves belong to (which is ridiculous) but the fact that neither of you have the balls to properly address each other as human beings and resolve this conflict properly. Instead falling back on petty passive aggressive behavior of blowing leaves back and forth. According to your story he started it by blowing it into your property and you should have gone and spoken to him at that very moment. Instead you escalated it by blowing leaves back into his property. That being said, the leaves belong to the property where they fall. They are not his leaves or your leaves. Unless your neighbor is not following a statute in your town that mandates leaf cleanup, you have no recourse about him not cleaning his yard as often as you. The fact that he has huge oaks and you have small to no trees is meaningless. This is autumn and leaves fall from trees. The only complaint you both have against EACH OTHER (because at this point both of you are guilty of the same offense) is to stop blowing leaves into each other's properties. You lost your high ground when you sank to his level and blew the leaves onto his property. Blowing leaves onto your neighbor's property is not a proper cleanup method and is disrespectful. Both of you need to learn how to clean up your own properties properly and without impact to each other.",
