That is the dumbest lawsuit I've ever heard of. Does an aircraft flying over his place diminish his property value also? Just a rich prick being an a-hole.
Frivolous at minimum!
Funny thing is the landowner was a yuge Trump supporter:

Corner jumping is a HUGE issue and has been for a while. And, it really does favor the private landowner. In this case, I guess he's saying the hunters 'bodies' are onto his property air space even though they never stepped foot on his property. Just a way to keep BLM land out of the reach of the public when it's locked by those checkerboard owners.
It’s a method to make the BLM land your own private land. WhaTs weird to me is no one has mentioned access rights
Correct. I read where a guy was going to rent a helicopter and get dropped into some prime BLM land that was land-locked but it caused quite a fuss. Don't recall outcome but I'd pitch in for his chopper fuel just to piss off the elite landowners around it!
I smell a California transplant land owner here? I hope the Wyoming Jury and/or judge is not from the west coast as well?
IF the judge sides with the hunters, that's going to be a HUGE precedent and win for other corner jumpers.
