<p>DALLAS, Texas (AP) &#8212; A 67-year-old Dallas woman climbed a pecan tree on her property to protest a utility company&#8217;s plan to trim the branches.</p><p>Jeri Huber climbed the tree Monday to stop an Oncor crew from trimming it.</p><p>It was the second time in six years that Huber has climbed the tree to prevent any limbs from being removed.</p><p>She says the utility company is encroaching on her rights as a property owner, but Oncor counters that it&#8217;s been trying to resolve the matter for months and that it&#8217;s responsible for keeping power lines free from branches so that service to customers isn&#8217;t disrupted.</p><p>The company has issued a temporary restraining order against Huber. A crew later successfully trimmed the tree.</p><style>
