Pennsylvania Supreme Court Protects Private Hunting Lands | Harrisburg News
Description
Pennsylvania’s top court just handed landowners a major victory, ruling that game wardens and officials can no longer trespass on private hunting lands without a warrant, probable cause, or permission — overturning a 20-year-old “open fields” doctrine in a unanimous 7-0 decision. The case, brought by hunting clubs in Clearfield County, argues Pennsylvania’s constitution offers stronger privacy protections than the U.S. Constitution in these cases. Now, wildlife officials must follow strict legal procedures before entering secured or posted private property — a game-changer for landowners across the state who’ve long fought unwarranted intrusions.
