  1. Trespass

  2. Easement

  3. Encroachment

  4. Liability

The correct answer is: Encroachment

Neighbor A building a fence onto Owner B's property would constitute an encroachment. An encroachment occurs when someone builds a structure or performs an activity on another person's property without their permission. Trespassing involves physically entering or remaining on someone else's property without their consent, while an easement refers to the right to use someone else's land for a specific purpose. Liability is not directly related to building a fence onto someone else's property.
