More importantly, however, a certain number of Federal Justices clearly agree with them! Although the initial ruling was made - back in January - by a mere three judge panel of the highly "Leftist" Ninth Circuit, a much larger panel has since staunchly upheld it. The logic upon which they have done so is that the outside of one's residence is open to: neighborhood children, delivery personnel, and occasional visitors - therefore cannot be considered truly private property [with legal respect] toward the uninformed owner... logically, they state: "had they truly intended this property to remain private, then they would have established a fence or even locked their property securely inside the house or garage." The fact that this argument is based upon pure conjecture and patently false assumptions didn't seem to bother them in the least.
