my friend has a neighbor that has seen the results of three surveys,one of which be had done by his own surveyor. He is still trying to put in his own stakes where they are taking up my friends property. She has ask & asked(over a five year period)
Now she wants to make him stop legally But it costs $1,500. Should she have to pay an attorney to just have a paper presented & a Judge decide from the facts,which she has.

In some states (sorry, I don't know about Tennessee) it is a crime to remove surveyor's stakes.
She might explore this with the local prosecutor. If she can convince him that a crime has been committed he should prosecute it at no cost to her.

Yes, it is legal. It is also STUPID. No one should EVER represent himself or herself in court. She doesn't have to pay an attorney, but it is in her best interest to do so.

Nothing is ever cut and dried in court.
