Rule of Law. There are limits specified in the law about everything. I suspect that if your neighbor started a celebratory bonfire on their property that got out of hand and burned down everything on your property, someone would have something to say to them about it in court - and even before your lawsuit.
I know this will land on deaf ears, but here's a hypothetical scenario for all you folks who say that you should be able to do whatever you want on your own property. If everyone was given a parcel of land and they graded it clean of vegetation and paved it over, we'd soon be treeless and beeless, foodless and hotter than hell. Land "owners" are only leasing the land and the responsibility of overseeing the true rights of future generations... the right to live, breathe and survive and thrive; the right to clean air and water, food to eat, joy and beauty, art and music, and exposure to bunnies, birds and trees. It's not going to happen if we think it's all about me doing exactly as I please.

They will never pay that. Put people in jail long enough to wreck them.
Why not replant them somewhere else 🤔 second issue the city had to know that lots were being sold for homes with the trees on them!

It’s just California that robs you
I didn’t know what the law was for Joshua tree. If they live there I don’t think they did it with a bad intention
They tried to hide the evidence.
Obviously, to any person w/comprehension skills, they knew.
Handcuff them to a Joshua Tree for a few days …
None of the trees were molested upon further investigation. 🐓
Nothing against the trees but if the ppl own the property they should be able to do what they want.
That’s correct you have to build around them, trust me I know!!!
Unless they mysteriously die.

The oldest excuse in the book “I did not know it was illegal”
That is a stiffer penalty than most violent criminals get, you can beat and kill but don't dig up a tree.
Why did the neighbor just let them know??????
It's yours you paid for it...
They should have put the house in a different spot, I bet they knew the trees were protected or they found out later, why else would they bury them
The world is regulated by what you don’t know so enjoy your universe. No one else lives here but you.
They're terrible as firewood....
Good God thats alot money!! where was the Neighbors" at before?
I didn’t know
See what happens when you forget to give the big guy his cut!!!!!
Wtf is this guy talking about? His comments make no sense.
I'm pretty sure they already factored that in on build cost. If you have the money it's yours.
People are disgusting ! What they do for decoration
SAVE the JOSHUA trees🌵! 👍
Why did they anyway?
These trees don't bear fruits or provide any shades. Worthless, let these anchors have them in their backyard
You don’t sh*t either, but here you are. Leave the tree alone P ;ut 0

Ok smart guy, rip em up and let that sand bowl.

Well looks like I got a jump in my 4 x 4 but don’t worry I’m not going to rip them out

I been around them years ago but to try remove any is wrong. unless crew got a permit any i guess they cant be moved any.
