I would sue, but that might cost you a lot of money.

Are you talking in an apartment or between houses? If you live in the city there probably a disturbing the peace ordinance that you'll have to talk some council member into having enforced.
Before we bought our house the apartment next door to us had a semi-ligit rap "singer" living in it. He'd start that crap playing at 8:00 AM and would turn it off at 10:00 PM - right within the rules of the complex. The pictures on my walls would dance some days. We went on a four week vacation overseas so I took my 18" VMPS sub-woofer and plugged it into the 60 Hz outlet next to the closet. I put the speaker into the closet with the cone up against the commmon wall and surrounded the thing with Chirstmas boxes. The power consumed was only like 40 watts but it was loud. Every time he'd smoke crack or beat up on his girlfriend (still nursing their baby) the cops would get called. When he drove his car halfway though the wall between our garages I called the landlord on him too. His father had rented the apartment and the shithead was living there. Eventually he got tired of the cops coming by every weekend taking him away in cuffs. |

The apartment I used to live at I had a problem with a young man who had no clue how loud to play music after 10 (ie....quietly). Strangely, his power would sometimes go out during these times. I'm sure the fuses he had to replace weren't that expensive, though. [:)]
He got the hint after the fourth or fifth time. He also got evicted after seven months. Next worse was my future sister in law, who had parties in a studio apartment. I had fun with these. A bunch of underage drinkers always get scared when I knock on the door talking to the police on the phone. I don't think she liked me for a couple of years, but it was strangely effective. I bought a house and it's so much nicer. |

It's called a Tidal Wave.
Fill up a decent sized garbage can with water. Tilt it up against his door. Next time he opens the door....well.. Yes, I know, it's immature. But it will sure feel good. Feel free to substitute any other liquid you desire... |

It doesn't actually matter when it is, if it's so loud that it disturbs the "quiet enjoyment" of your living space, it's a violation.
I like the power out idea! |

Move.
I guarantee you that crap don't happen here. If you can't do that...call the lawmen every time they start that shit up. You should damn well not have to put up with your sleazy neighbors' bad habits. |

This is why I hate apartments and have somehow managed to never live in one.
What can you do? Just make his life as miserable(legally or otherwise)as possible until he gets the message. |

Quoted: hit their doorknob with a propane torch then knock on the door and run..... Gotta be careful and make sure the flame doesn't get anything else so there's no evidence. [:)] if they come home at a certain time, 2 minutes before hand add some JBWeld to the door knob. Make sure you don't get any in the keyhole, of course. [}:D] A nice fresh coat of the same color paint to ensure their door is looking nice also is a very neighborly touch. Of course, this requires some stealth, since you want to make sure that no one knows about your special gift to your neighboor. It's a suprise right? There's a ton of stuff on the net about good revenge if he has a car. But I've never tried any of these things, nor would I recommend you do any of them, cuz that would be Evil and bad. And in some cases, Illegal. [:)] |

hit their doorknob with a propane torch then knock on the door and run.. Most of the prank ideas I hear tossed around run from dumb to stupid. This one... Back home, some girl was trying to get "even" (the law doesn't seem to care whether you're ahead, behind, or even when actual damage is done) with her ex boyfriend. She was going to put some Tuna on the engine block of his car, but he wasn't home. So they set the couch outside his apartment on fire. 4 people died in the resulting blaze. She plead guilty to 4 counts of 1st degree murder, 1 count of arson, and was sentenced to life in prison with no possibility of parole. |
