Location: Nebraska. A Fence Has Been Built On My Property In The Last 24 Hours In Order To Steal It.

So, this is a really long story. In short a very shady man has moved to my area and he is in the process of buying a parcel of land next to mine after trying to buy mine, the accessor has informed me is being held up closing because the guy hasn't gotten a survey. He now put a fence about 100 feet into my property, blocking my access to the highway and has pushed it right up against an abandoned house. He basically took the road that belonged to the house and parcel I own, including the well and power transformer.

In the mean time I had to inform the sheriff I am getting a lawyer involved, so he would even come out at all. This man plans to stack logs all over and move heavy machinery in. He already knocked a rail road crossing over and no showed for court appearance for that, as it appears he is carrying no insurance on the logging business. Got caught driving a truck with no CDL and no registration. He also has another pending court case over stacking logs on another neighbor. He is trying to move logs off yet another neighbor he stiffed.

This property is just outside of city limits, but he has left stacks of logs within 20 feet of the railroad, and there are homes within 100 feet of these piles in the dryest winter we have had in 100 years.

Sorry for the rambling, I guess my question is where do I stand with this new fence? It's trespassing if he owns neither property as far as I can tell. I am going to pay to talk with my lawyer... but can I tear this fence out? Is this to force my hand to sell that much? I feel like if my sheriff could have arrested him on this. Do I go to the state patrol?

Location: Nebraska.

Edit:

I'm gonna be busy the next couple days trying to get some things done. In the mean time I will be taking a break from the thread.

Thanks.
