Re: [RC] Horrible accident - why? - Sisu West Ranch
While I have no information about liability in this
specific instance, there are differences between states. As soon as you
cross the border between SD and MT on the interstate you will notice that the
interstate freeway has cattle guards on the entrances. MT is a "fence em
out " state. In general if you do not want your neighbor's livestock on
your place you have to put up and maintain the fence.
I'm sure there is specific case law limiting things
etc. but the bottom line is it does matter where you live.

PS. In MN you in general are liable if your
livestock goes running around.
Disclaimer: If you need legal advice, call a
lawyer licensed in your state, don't listen to me.
