Neighbour broke my dining room window
About a few weeks before Christmas my neighbour was mowing his macadamia nut orchard lawn and while he was doing this he decided that it was a good idea to run over the fallen macadamia nuts on the ground with his ride on mower. bad idea!! in doing this he flung a macadamia nut into my dining room window and just missed my 7 year old daughters head.
i approached my neighbour and told him what he had done and he said that he would get onto it .
well... several weeks have passed and my neighbour seems to be avoiding me.
i dont see why i have to pay for damage to my property caused by someone else
what can i do ?
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
