Farm communities view trespassing differently than a city neighborhood. People routinely traipse across people's properties in rural areas, even less-than-acre lots, and it's not viewed as something that deserves a third-degree felony. Tell a jury this, then give the analogy to a WAP as a wall, and you should have a good defense. -- Alexander --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
