Even without explicit agreement, if two neighbors treat a fence as a border fence for an extended period of time — for example, if both contribute to its maintenance for many years — it can become the legal border. (See Chapter 9, Lines of Boundaries, for a full discussion of agreed boundaries.) When you or your neighbour install a fence, pay close attention to the boundary lines. Don`t make the mistake of erecting a fence at the border when it could be on the neighbour`s property. They can sue you for trespassing and ask for damages and removal of the fence. You may not even be able to keep the fence materials. This is true even if you thought you were on your own land. (23) Neighbours often do not know exactly where the boundary between their properties is, and surveys are expensive. Fortunately, you don`t need to locate the exact demarcation line to have a common border fence. Even if two neighbours jointly own a border fence, a landlord may want to be responsible for maintaining the fence. Neighbors can discuss this agreement, or it can just happen without anything ever being said. Especially if only one owner has built the fences, she can really consider it as her fence and not want the neighbor to disturb her.

Sometimes fences are also used unevenly; For example, if one neighbor uses only a few feet of an extended fence, the other can never expect to pay for the repair. And if one owner has children or a dog, she may be more interested in maintenance than the other. Example: Stephanie runs a home daycare. The house is close to a busy street and she sucks for children, who can easily climb her three-foot legal fence. She asked the city for a diversion, a permit to allow a five-metre high fence. The sign is installed, no one objects, and the city`s planning commission grants the diversion. Stephanie builds her five-metre high fence, legally. Sometimes the thieves themselves acted as fences and sold to people they met on the street. [20]: 177 This might have been better for the thieves because they did not have to pay for the fence portion of the loot. If you want to use a fence slightly above someone else`s property, or if your neighbor wants to share yours, be careful unless you want to make the fence the legal limit.

Write down your agreement and explain your intentions in detail. Specify the expenses and obligations of each of you and make it clear that the use of the fence and land is only with the permission of the owner and that the agreement does not confer a right to land ownership. You may want to contact a local land use attorney to make sure your agreement covers everything needed. Electronically booked items may have been stolen or otherwise stolen, or purchased with stolen credit cards or similar banking information. The latter practice is often closely related to carding, which is the mass trading of stolen credit card numbers. The sale of stolen credit cards, which typically takes place in darknet markets, is a separate form of electronic fence and plays a role in buying physical goods that can be fenced off by themselves or by more traditional means. There are situations where a fence that appears to violate a local ordinance is completely legal. Even what started quite legally can then go beyond the law. For example, a beautiful little hedge fence can become a 15-foot natural wall. If the two neighbors love it, nothing is ever said, and it is there. Butchers received stolen animals because owners could not recognize their livestock after the animal was slaughtered.

[20]: 175 animals were very valuable possessions in Ming China, and a thief could eventually make a living by stealing cattle and selling them at butchers` fences. The way to occupy a fence was born to a large extent from necessity. Since most of the fences came from the ranks of the poorest, they often took whatever jobs they could, legal and illegal. [20] Working as a fence was an option that was not too tiring, but had the potential to generate a reasonable income. Although fences usually operated with physical stolen goods, fences that also functioned as roving hairdressers also sold equally good information.
