Re: Legal Question. Hunting lease locked, Still in contract.

Best case would be to communicate with the majority owner and maybe convince him to honor the leases through their current term. From the sound of things, you're not going to deer hunt there next season. So there would be minimal hunting on the time remaining. Convince him that it will just be a summer retreat and he might relent, at least until October.

Next best is just to negotiate a schedule for the hunters to access the lease and remove their property. After all, if you are being denied your property, a very thin case of theft might exist.

Any hostile contact with the owner will end badly.

From what I heard today at the gunshop I expect the lock to be cut in the near future. The only person I know that has equipment still on it won't answer my phone calls. I'm off on saturday so I'm going back out and do some looking.
Sounds like a major mistake and possible tresspassing charges if you do this. Even if someone else cuts the lock, you could still be guilty of tresspassing.
