Well, yeah. But, wouldn't it be better for all concerned to head the problem
off at the pass? Beats all the hassles of having the tree fall, cleaning up to
mess and then suing to collect damages. 

Neither did I have any legal recourse whilst the tree in my situation was still
up and more-or-less intact. But, by reminding the property owners of the
potential liability situation I moved them off the dime. 

Carol would be doing the same thing, if she follows my course. And laying the
ground work for pointing a finger and saying "They were warned of the hazards"
during any ensuing legal action. That often stirs action on the part of
lethargic property owners - when their wallets are threatened.   Bv)=
