Just to clear up a few things, I have not, at least not yet harvested any of the fruit next door, partly due to the fact I have a few hundred Satsumas on our own tree, many more than we can eat ourselves. I am not really worried about getting caught with how grown up the front yard is next door as you can barely see the house from the street and there is no fence between our yards in the front. Also if there were a police response I really doubt it would go beyond them saying to stay out of the neighbors yard, likely not even that far given that is is a vacant house. If by some chance the cop was having a bad day and wanted to push things, my wife knows the DA very well, she talks with him several times per week as part of her job as the director of a local public agency, plus I know both of the local district judges on a first name basis, and went to high school with one of them.
