You don't file a lawsuit against your neighbor, more like you are filing a lawsuit against the boundary line. You and your neighbor go to court; there is a process to determine the new boundaries that are as fair to everyone as possible.
If you and your neighbor have already decided ahead of time what is fair, then the courtroom stuff is probably just rubber-stamping and recording it so that when one of you sells the next owner has a clean title. If the two of you don't agree then at least you've got someone neutral to help out. The whole thing seems to be a bit absurd but what is better?

Wonder what Hawaii does or any other place where it isn’t unusual for “new land” to be created. Like if your lot along the coast gets extended by volcanic action does your properly line get auto-extended as well or does the extension become part of the public shoreline?
