Question:

Principle 1: Whoever enters into another person’s property with intent to intimidate, insult or annoy that person, commits “criminal trespass”. Principle 2: An act which causes harm which is so slight that no person of ordinary sense and temper would complain of such harm, is deemed not to amount to intimidation, insult or annoyance.
Facts: X enters into Y’s property at midnight, uninvited, and points a gun at Y. A few minutes later, he reveals that the gun is a toy gun. 
Choose the most appropriate answer:

  • X has committed criminal trespass, because Y finds X annoying
  • X has not committed criminal trespass, because the gun was a toy gun and could not possibly have caused any harm to Y.
  • X has committed criminal trespass because entering uninvited into a property at midnight and pointing a gun at a person would intimidate any person of ordinary sense and temper
  • None of the above.
