I heard this on XM today and thought it was an interesting story - only in California would neighbors get along this well 
Here’s an unusual situation: Neighbors A plants some redwood trees for protection from wind and screening between 1997-1999. They’re also heavy into the environment and later purchase a Toyota Prius.
Neighbors B install a 10-kilowatt solar system in 2001, drive an electric car, and pay about $60 a year in energy costs. They are now in a court case with Neighbors A because the redwood trees planted in 1997 are now blocking the solar panels they installed in 2001.
Apparently, Neighbors B are on the right side of the law by ordering Neighbors A to cut down their trees according to a rarely enforced California law called Solar Shade Control Act.
