Donald and Susanne Dysland claim in the suits, filed in Waukesha County Circuit Court, that neighbor Charles Stelter "intentionally shines spotlights" into their backyard and has a video camera pointed at their hot tub, the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported Thursday.

The couple claims another neighbor, Ronald Borowski, shines spotlights into their bedroom at late hours and has built a retaining wall that encroaches onto their property.

The Dyslands claim those offenses, as well as other alleged behaviors, have been aimed at reducing the value of their $441,700 property.

"We filed the lawsuit to stop the harassment, which has been occurring as detailed in the complaints, because the neighbors would not comply with repeated requests to stop doing so," said Robert Welcenbach, a lawyer for the Dyslands.
