You're making less sense than normal (if that's possible.)
its not really about the police tresspassing, its about them paying the OP for using his land after their business with him is concluded.

if they stay, they volunteer to pay. (they are free to leave, Right?)

----------

i hope you understand implied contract law. (google implied contracts)

----------

implied contract means,


A legally enforceable agreement that arises from conduct, assumed intentions, some relationship of the immediate parties, or the application of the legal principle of equity.

A contract is implied when a party knowingly accepts a benefit (like parking) from another party in circumstances where the benefit cannot be considered a gift. Therefore, the party accepting the benefit is under a legal obligation to give fair value for the benefit received.

---------

Parking is not a free gift, unless one is a customer or unless one is engaged in official government
business with the owner of this property, $500 an hour land use fee for parking.
NOTICE TO AGENT IS NOTICE TO PRINCIPAL

( now thats a great sign )

DUIAttyPCho - I see your name as reading this thread. I expect you will come to find that Dillon is one of our more ...eccentric... posters. Just consider that before you try to do something silly with Dillon like quoting law, or using logic. Those sorts of things are not really Dillon's forte.
 
I was wondering when this question would devolve into theory. Theory is all nice and good, but the reality is that the cops are going to stick around if they choose to, and no one can do anything about it.

The issue of if they have a right or right not to be there, etc. and probable cause, reasonable suspicion, all that goes to if the evidence gathered as a result of the search can be admitted into court or not. As in, fruit of the poisonous tree. So, those issues don't really explain one way or the other if an officer can or is allowed to be in a certain place or not. It's a rule that only applies to evidence seized.

So going to the question at hand: Can a cop just park on private property in a bar parking lot without owners consent? Yes. The reason? Because nobody can and nobody will stop them.

Sorry to be the party pooper, but someone had to pull the plug. :)

The bottom line is that the police use this "right" in many ways, in many cases. The ones with some knowledge and experience can play havoc with the law.

Gee, who is that?
I am from Iowa, but I work in outer space.


But Highwayman, How do you like the sign?

Parking at this bar is not a free gift, unless one is a customer or unless one is engaged in official government
business with the owner of this property, $500 an hour land use fee for parking or get a warrant.

this sign should do the trick, how would you improve it?

Another faulty premise. I gave accurate advice...not some hair-brained lunacy.

Do you know for a fact this sign/Notice wont work and do you have any case law to back-up your opinion.

Parking is not a fee gift at this BAR, except if one is a customer or engaged in official government
business with the owner of this property, there is a $500 an hour land use fee for parking.

Do you know for a fact that it will? Where is your back up case law?
there is no case law preventing, the filing of a civil suit against the officers/dept in court for a breach of implied contract, this should be a great test case.

its a new approach, how do you like it? - there is more than one way to prevail in court.

think outside the box, make it a breach of contract issue.

---

one can be right and yet still lose in court by arguing the wrong issue of (tresspassing)

----

let the officers stay as long a they want, just pay the OP when using his property when not engaged in offcial business with this OP or get a warrant.
