How do you like them apples?

Q: In a past article, you made an error regarding the right to pick fruit from a neighbor’s tree when branches overhang the property line. Common law holds that while you may trim overhanging branches of a neighbor’s trees, you are not entitled to the fruit on those trees, even after the branches are cut off. That remains the property of the tree owner, even if it is on your side of the fence.
