Notice of Private Land

You may be visiting this page because you saw a sign posted on some land somewhere. The sign referred you to this web-page, and looked like this:

Please read this page all the way through. If you enter the land upon which this sign is posted, you will be held responsible for everything contained on this page, whether you have read it or not.

The sign, as quoted above, gives notice of the offer of a constructive contract to be created by and between two parties:

1. The landowner, and
2. Any person entering upon the land.

The offer is made by the first party, and is deemed to have been accepted by the second party upon the event of the second party entering upon the land. No other action by the second party is required to signal acceptance.

The sign is intended as both a notice and a warning. The act of entering upon the land is the same as signing your name to a contract. The evidence that you have agreed to all the terms and conditions of the contract is simply that you are found upon the land. If you have not agreed, then you will always be somewhere else, other than upon this land. If you are on the land, then you have agreed. Simple, you see?

The sign gives notice of some of the terms and conditions present in the contract, and puts the prospective second-party on notice that the full contract is not set forth on the sign, but can instead be viewed at this location on the Internet. I presume that's why you are here: to read the full contract.

The contract may vary, according to the particular description. This page will set forth the following information, grouped by land description:

1. State in the united States of America
2. County, Township
3. The owner and his contact information
4. Land Description
5. The actual contract to which all non-authorized people agree, by their act of entering upon the land.
6. A list of people to whom written permission has been given to enter this land. The terms and conditions specifically granted in a written permit supercede the contract referenced in the above paragraph.

  Contract:

  This contract is made by and between the above-named Owner, PRTC Trust, dated 07/04/2014, Gregory Wood trustee, the first party to this Contract and hereinafter referred to as "Landowner", and any and all unauthorized people who enter the land which is the subject of this Contract, the second party to this Contract, hereinafter referred to as "Entrant".

  The Land. The land which is subject to this Contract is described in the paragraph on this web-page, in the heading directly above "Contract", and titled "Land descriptions" and is hereby incorporated by reference as though it actually appears herein. This land shall be hereinafter referred to as "Land".

  Applicability. All people found upon the Land without prior written consent at all times in their possession will be deemed subject to this Contract. This includes everyone. Minors, or the non compos mentis shall be deemed to be the responsibility of their parents or guardians, who shall be responsible for the fees they incur.

  Joinder. The Landowner prefers that only those people specifically authorized by him ever enter the Land. The Landowner encourages people to contact him first, and pre-negotiate terms and conditions for their entrance onto the Land. However, the Landowner foresees that unauthorized people may wish to enter the Land for purposes of hiking, riding offroad vehicles, hunting, or any number of other uses not specifically listed here. The Landowner has offered joinder to the public at-large, via this Contract, by means of constructive notice, i.e. the conspicuous posting of signs all around the outer bounds of the Land. Anyone who does not agree with the terms and conditions specified in this Contract can simply stay off the Land. Anyone who enters the Land, for any reason, without prior written consent of the Landowner at all times in his possession, shall be deemed to have accepted all the terms and conditions of this Contract.

  Jurisdiction. The parties hereto agree that exclusive jurisdiction over any diputes regarding this Contract, or the enforcement thereof, shall be given to a tribunal convened by the governing body of the Columbia Tennessee ward of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, hereinafter "Church", whose decisions shall be final. In the event the Church is unwilling or unable to hear any matter brought before it in this regard, jurisdiction shall be granted to the District Court for the County of Giles, State of Tennessee. In either event, Entrant consents in advance to grant personal jurisdiction, and agrees that any judgment handed down by the body with jurisdiction may be treated as res judicata and enforced as a foreign judgment within any other convenient jurisdiction. Entrant specifically waives any claims of conflict of law.

  Effective Date. The effective date of this Contract shall be the first date upon which Entrant enters the land.

  Term. The term of this Contract shall begin on the Effective Date, and end only at such a time when all of the following are true:

  1. The Entrant is no longer upon the land.
  2. The Entrant has paid all fees and costs which Entrant may owe to Landowner including, but not limited to:
     • fees for entrance and use
     • costs of enforcement, collection, storage, auctions
     • damage to Landowner's property
     • injury to persons authorized or not authorized to be on the Land
  3. Any and all claims Entrant may make against Landowner resulting from Entrant's entrance upon the Land have been extinquished and/or abandoned.

  Consideration. The consideration for this Contract shall be the offer and voluntary acceptance of entry onto the Land for the various purposes set forth, in exchange of the various fees and costs set forth in the Schedule of Bailments which is made a part of this Contract.

  Enforcement. This Contract may be enforced by the Landowner, and by any agent to whom the Landowner grants authority, collectively herein called "Constable". The fees set forth in the Schedule of Bailments are due and payable by the Entrant to the Landowner immediately upon entry onto the Land. Any Constable has the authority to demand immediate payment. If the Entrant is unwilling or unable to pay, then the Constable may seize any personal property the Entrant has brought onto the Land, including but not limited to vehicles, trailers, equipment, etc., and hold such property as collateral in lieu of payment. Entrant consents in advance to peaceably surrender such property on demand, and agrees to pay a penalty of two-hundred-fifty dollars in silver coin of the united States of America (or equivalent value) if Entrant refuses to surrender such property. Constable may hold such property for thirty days, and if payment is not made in full within that time, then Constable may auction the property to satisfy payment. In the event of auction, Constable will pay the proceeds first to Landowner, up to the amount of payment due, and then will pay the remainder, if any, to the Entrant. If the proceeds are not sufficient to satisfy the payment due, then Landowner may demand that Entrant pay the balance. Landowner may also pursue other remedies, such as making a claim for judgment with a tribunal or court of competent jurisdiction. Entrant agrees to pay all costs of collection including, but not limited to court costs, attorney fees, service of process, writs of execution, etc. Entrant agrees to hold Landowner and his agents harmless from any damage or injury resulting from the enforcement of this Contract.

  Schedule of Bailments. Landowner hereby offers Entrant the following bailments, payable in silver coin of the united States of America (or equivalent value). Fees for all listed uses are in addition to entry:

  Schedule of Bailments
  Bailment	Fee
  Entry, per day, or any part of a day	60.00
  Hunting deer	40.00
  Hunting turkey	25.00
  All other hunting	50.00
  Hiking	10.00
  Horseback riding	15.00
  Four (or three) wheeler riding	50.00
  Trailbike riding	75.00
  Traveling in an automobile or truck	40.00
  Tree cutting Any tree less than 3" diameter Any tree more 3" diameter or greater	10.00 700.00
  Gathering firewood Deadwood, one cord or less Deadwood, each additional cord	35.00 30.00
  Oil and gas production	25% royalty 1,000 per ac. bonus
  All other uses	5,000.00
  Note: If Entrant is paying in Federal Reserve Notes, Entrant must multiply the above-listed fee by the current spot-price for Silver, and add 25% for handling. For example, if the current spot-price for silver is $20.00 per ounce, then a fee of "10.00" would cost $250 in Federal Reserve Notes.

  Durability. The terms of this Contract may be changed without notice. If and when the terms and conditions are edited, any Entrants relying on this Internet posting shall be given the most favorable terms and conditions posted within the twenty-four hour period of their entrance and use.
