Question

Miguel recently purchased his first home. He is very excited about making improvements to the home. He decides it would be cheaper if he had his own water source so he digs a well in his backyard. Next he decides to construct a large building right next to the edge of his property. The following spring, Miguel gets a letter from his neighbor Stephen claiming Miguel has stolen Stephen's water source by digging a well. Miguel decides not to say anything and hopes his neighbor won't pursue any further legal action. Much to Miguel's relief, summer rains are heavy and the rainwater bounces off his shed and creates a lake in Stephen's backyard. Miguel has received another letter from Stephen again claiming wrongdoing on the part of Miguel because of the lake.
