LA and JF were convicted of living on public land
Read United States v. Ames, 472 F. App'x 794, see flags on bad law, and search Casetext’s comprehensive legal database

The evidence was sufficient to convict Ames and Fournier of violating
36 C.F.R. § 261.10(b). The Forest Service determined that Ames' and Fournier's residences were not reasonably incident to a mining operation. Thus, residential use of their claim was not authorized by the mining laws and regulations.
See United States v. Nogueira, 403 F.2d 816, 825 (9th Cir. 1968) (explaining that permanent residence not reasonably related to mining is not authorized under the mining statute);
United States v. Richardson, 599 F.2d 290, 295(9th Cir. 1979) (providing that the Forest Service may prohibit uses not reasonably necessary to mining). Rather, under these circumstances, their residencies constituted a special use under § 251.50(a), requiring special use authorization, which neither had.
The convictions follow a crackdown by the U.S. attorney's office.
