Keep it in the back pocket if the kids don't follow the signage. This should be a slow escalation, the parents are already litigious... you don't want them filing some suit if it can be avoided. | |

However, once you put someone on notice that they are not welcomed, further trespass if established, is prima facie evidence of (1) the tort of trespass; and (2) if you post your property no trespass or give notice, or acquire an order restraining them form trespass, then it can become a criminal issue. Even if not, the police will intervene as peace officers and require them to leave, giving warning as to the potential consequences and adding about availability of no trespass order/PFH. | |

The only remedy a landowner has against a trespasser is the use of 'reasonable force' to evict them (after requests for them to leave have failed). If gypsies encamp on your land you have to get a court order to have them removed by the police. But there is a tort of nuisance, and that is how you would deal with these children. The parents could be held to be committing 'nuisance' for which there are legal remedies. | |
