Senior Member Vindstot Posted April 25, 2018 Senior Member Posted April 25, 2018 Oh btw, to DJ's 3rd pic, just came to my mind: there is a law that protects tresspassers, which says that if you enter to a foreign private property (to eg rob them) and if you get injured by something in their property, and they could have prevented your injury (eg he beats you up, his dog bites you, you fall off of their roof due to its weak structure), you can sue them for money. (i think not in usa, but in eu its a law) 2 1 Quote

I searched it a bit and found that in some US states they have the Duty to Retreat criminal law, which says if you can safely retreat then do it. In other states this is not a law, but they have the Castle Doctrine (or Defense of Habitation law) which gives you the ability to use deadly force against an intruder and for that you are free from legal prosecution. But on the other hand the Tomlinson v Congleton 2003 case is good example regarding trespassing of how it works But im not close to being a lawyer, i can be wrong Quote
