You can fight that in court. If the property is open(no chains, gates, fences, signs, post), you can "assume" its public property. Courts will dismiss many cases because private properties fail to post signs indicating where the private land is.

In Indiana, a person can legally be on another person's property(but not in a residence) as long as the owner hasn't posted a sign in a conspicuous place or told the person to leave the property. A person cannot enter the residence of another person without permission. A person cannot enter any building with the intent to commit a felony, even the felony is never committed.

It really depends on the state. Take Te4xas for instance. As far as far as I know that is the only state that you can protect your personal property. Case in point; one business tried to reposess an automobile in this guys driveway. The owner of the house thought his truck was being stolen. So what did he do? He shot and killed the guy. Case closed. I wish all states were like Texas.
