““21-3721. Criminal Trespass. Criminal trespass is entering or remaining upon or in any land, structure, vehicle, aircraft or watercraft by a person who knows he or she is not authorized or privileged to do so, and: “(b) such premises or property are posted in a manner reasonably likely to come to the attention of intruders, or are locked or fenced or otherwise enclosed, or shut or secured against passage or entry.” (Emphasis supplied.)”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majoritye.g. State v. Rush · State v. Fisher““The alternative notice requirement (b) relates to forms of actual and constructive notice by which an ordinarily prudent person is advised or should realize he is entering or has entered the premises or property of another. This includes the posting of signs in, on or around the property. In the alternative the state may prove the premises or property on which the trespass occurred was fenced or otherwise enclosed. If a person must enter through a fence or other enclosure to reach lands, structures, vehicles, aircraft, or watercraft he is at least constructively notified or should realize he is not authorized or privileged to do so without permission. Fences and enclosures indicate the boundaries between properties.” 220 Kan. at 614 . (Emphasis supplied.)”
