In NC you can only be charged with trespassing if there is a sign that says NO TRESPASSING or you have been told prior to you trespassing not to be there.

5 of us were caught in a Quary in the middle of the day. The owners of the Quary called the cops,,,when the cops showed up the owners wanted us charged with trespassing, I spoke and told them that we had not been advised that we were trespassing and the cops told the owners that they could not charge us until we were advised either by signs or verbally that we would be charged if we trespassed. So they let us go. I have the whole thing on video,,,,

Take photos of the fence and surrounding area to prove that there were not any No Trespassing signs visible. You can even call the magistrates office and pretend you want to post some land and ask what the law is and they will tell you.

A good lawyer will get this thrown out, no problem!

In some towns there are no trespassing laws making it a misdemeanor. Outside of town it may be under state law where it is a criminal charge. Misdemeanor trespass -vs- criminal.

I had a criminal trespass which cost me all of $50. Be contrite if you go in front of the judge and don't try to talk your way out of it.

Have your lawyer tell US Cellular that you'll be more than happy to switch your phone coverage over to them and sign a two year contract if they drop the charges.

what to do when busted?

step 1: get on the internet
step 2: post an admission of guilt, and a timeline
step 3: get charged.

crap.

i think you accidently left out the word alledgedly, before everywhere the words jump, jumped, or tresspassed appear

thats my advice, based on alledged personal expierience.

have a nice day.

i've been in front of a judge a few times for this very reason... the judge told me that after "9/11" all power towers and communication towers would get a jumper FEDERAL trespassing charges.... luckily, i was with magot and he is blessed so we always got off easy.
I was busted before and after 9/11 and got lucky both times so i actually don't have any useful information for you..... be polite and wear a suit...... that's the best i've got
