Yes, The apples are the produce of your neighbours tree and therefore his property. Taking them is theft.
Or are apples a metaphore for his wife? You can never be sure on tsr...

Yeah it illegal. We studied it in property law. I think the acquisition of the property takes place by accession because your neighbour's apple tree produced the apple. So yeah, he/she has the real rights in the property and taking the apples with the intention of deprieving him/her of the apple without his consent is theft.
In scots law anyway... (I'm revising property)

Scrumping as in schlomping
In order for an act to be deemed a crime, it has to fulfill 2 criteria: "actus reus" - the physical act itself for which the gathering of evidence and testimonial of experts and witnesses prove essential, and "mens rea" - the mental element. This is where the dilemma lies - did the defendant intend to steal? Now the question you phrased used the word 'steal'. So it is apparent that the defendant's intention was to steal. He took the apple (actus reus) with the intention to steal (mens rea). Hence satisfying the 2 elements.
Ok, that wasn't much of a debate 
What if the apple falls of your neighbours tree an lands in your garden?
The apple still belongs to him because he didn't give you a real right in the apple. It just happens to be on your land, and in terms of law it's not a case of "finders keepers"

No, but you can make Yahzoo and that's all that matters
