leafoverhangcase

/ˌliːfˈəʊvəhæŋˌkeɪs/nounVerified New

Also in: Laubgrenzfall (Deutsch) · hojarascaso (Español) · feuillaffaire (Français)

The unresolved dispute about whose tree drops the leaves, argued annually and settled never.

The leafoverhangcase reopens every November with the same exhibits: the branch line, the wind direction, and one photograph from 2017. Raking is performed under protest, with visible sighs calibrated for viewing. The case is dismissed each year by mutual exhaustion and refiled by the first oak leaf of the next.

Etym. — leaf overhang + case — the seasonal litigation of the boundary tree.

Rel. — hedgearmistice · gutterdread

Novelty check: APPROVE
