Überragende Äste und eindringende Wurzeln kann der Nachbar, wenn sie sein Eigentum schädigen und auf seine Beschwerde hin nicht binnen angemessener Frist beseitigt werden, kappen und für sich behalten.
Duldet ein Grundeigentümer das Überragen von Ästen auf bebauten oder überbauten Boden, so hat er ein Recht auf die an ihnen wachsenden Früchte (Anries).
Auf Waldgrundstücke, die aneinander grenzen, finden diese Vorschriften keine Anwendung.
