Negative Commandment 246

"You shall not move back your neighbor's boundary marker"—Deuteronomy 19:14.

It is forbidden to tamper with a boundary marker separating two parcels of land, so as to claim part of a neighbor's property. One who does so has violated this Torah injunction—in addition to being guilty of theft.
