Ah! Ambiguous? So the courts should decide?
> Their trial, set for mid-April, will decide if they trespassed when they passed through that private airspace.
What's the problem here?
- uncletaco 4y agoThe problem is the courts haven't decided thus the sheriff is enforcing a law that doesn't exist, as per the complaint up the thread.
- mwint 4y agoBut trespassing laws do exist, as do airspace laws. I agree it’s an over-application of the law, but it’s not a law that doesn’t exist. Like if I broke into Walmart and road a purple bike around while shooting stuff with a flamethrower, I don’t get to say “but no purple-bike-intrusion-arson-law exists”
- antasvara 4y agoIf you read the actual article, you'll see that the courts have specifically refrained from creating legal precedent in cases of corner crossing. I would imagine that regardless of the outcome, the court will refrain from setting any sort of useful precedent.
