[6] 6 - Trespassing

A person who knowingly enters or remains unlawfully on private or government property.

• Implied Public Area: An implicitly public area is an area that is private property but functions as a public area (ex. shopping area of a store, fueling-up area of a gas station, lobby of a police station). To trespass someone from an implicitly-public-area within private property, the individual must first be ordered to leave (for any/no reason) by an authority of the property (ex. Manager, Property Owner); upon return or refusal to leave, the person may be arrested for violating this code.

• Restricted Area: Restricted areas are implicitly or explicitly defined. They include areas which have posted keep-out or no-trespassing signage as well as secured areas which are fenced, walled off, or behind doorways (including private vehicles). Unauthorized persons may be arrested on the spot for violating this code.

• Residences: Homes and apartment buildings are personal spaces which may only be accessed by residents, property owners, and invited guests. Any presence in a private residence or land without authorization may be cause for immediate arrest under this code.

This offence is a wobbler charge. This means that it may be either a Federal Charge or a Regular Charge depending on where the trespassing occurred.

Federal Charges: White House, FBI/IAA building, Military base, NOOSE Offices.

Regular Charges: Trespassing on private property. Trespassing on state property including: Port of Los Santos, Los Santos International Airport, Palmer-Taylor Power Station, and Ron Alternates Wind Farm.

Misdemeanor Sentence: 100 Month(s) Fine: $2000
