I thought it might be handy to have a ready resource here for people looking for state laws. I have done my best to verify all links, but sometimes they change when state statutes are updated from year to year to include laws passed in the most recent legislative session. I have also added an encyclopedia entry, Trespass: US law, that includes the text of the trespass law for each state. Please notify me of any changes that need to be made. Cheers, Night

Yeah, I had thought about doing that when I first saw this. I'll pin it in a couple of days. I'd like to leave it on this side of the line for a day or two to give everyone a chance to see it. Sometimes the items on top get overlooked and this is such a great example. This is the kind of post that Tutorials should be.

Hey thanks guys, no problem. I was seeing a lot of discussion surrounding legality and questions about what to expect from law enforcement officers if caught, but not much on what the laws actually read. Couldn't find any summaries of property law on the net, so I decided to do my own research and share it. Looking forward to the next project, Night

Wow. Great job. This is useless to me, as I'm Canadian, but I still appreciate the time put in to it. Thank you.

All of the Georgia code has been moved to here: http://w3.lexis-ne....asp?loggedIn=done and you can't link to any articles there.
