Criminal Trespass Charges

There is a difference between public and private property. Public property includes spaces that are open for public use, while private property belongs to a person or company. To access someone’s private property, you must be invited by the owner or a representative of the owner. Entering someone else’s property without being invited may be a crime in North Carolina and elsewhere. Private property may include both outdoor and indoor spaces. Trespassing takes on several forms; however, if you are charged with criminal trespass, you will want to seek legal guidance to defend the charges.
