What Right of Way rights do I have?
My neighbor is land-locked behind me and has a right of way across my property to access his land. I posted my land for no hunting, and he's threatening me and torn down my posted signs along the right of way access road to his parcel. Can I not post my own land for no hunting. including the R.O.W. access?
He has taken to cursing out my disabled wife on the phone...

this is a local issue but it sounds legal to me. (as in legal for you to post signs, for all the tds) you can post any legal posting on your property and he has no right to disturb it.
his right of way in no way relates you your right of ownership...
however, youwould have to consult loacl ordinances and your title and leins/exceptions/etc.

If his right is a recorded easement with a survey, he has the specified rights within the surveyed limits, no more and no less. A sign that blocks his traffic would be a violation. Anywhere else on the property would be your choice within the local signage ordinances. You may choose to allow extensions to the wording, such as putting down gravel and even planting shrubs on your land next to the easement, but there is no obligation for you to do so. The easement should be recorded along with your deed. Visit the court house and do some research. I have a few problems with neighbors that the survey helped to clarify. What I believed was mostly right, but not always. You may be surprised at what you discover.

Report it to the police: malicious destruction of signs, criminal mischief, threats, and anything else you can think of. You can post your land for "no hunting" or even "no trespassing" and there is NOTHING the neighbor can do about it. On the other hand, because he has a "right of way", the "no trespassing" sign would not strictly apply to them, but that gives them no right to remove or destroy the signs.

If he has a legal right of way, it allows him to cross the land. Not to improve it, change it, or damage anything on the property. He has no right to hunt on the property, nor to remove signs.

You can block his phone # very easily. That way your wife doesn't have to worry about him cursing.
