Trespass Decision Reversed by Circuit Court of Appeals
United States Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a lower court ruling in a Wyoming trespass case involving Uinta Development Company of Wyoming and Salt Lake defendants Mackay and Stewart-Harding Sheep Company. The court held the public had freedom to cross lands granted to the Union Pacific to reach the public domain under the 1862 and 1864 railroad grant acts, enabling sheepmen to drive flocks across the land to access the public domain. The decision, reported from St Louis, preserves rights of sheepmen to traverse railroad lands to reach the public domain, reversing Judge Riner's trespass verdict.
