Question: Our client, John Rambo, has decided that he is ready to retire and live a quiet life, and has purchased a small hobby farm outside

  1. Our client, John Rambo, has decided that he is ready to retire and live a quiet life, and has purchased a small hobby farm outside Kingston, where he is happily raising organic vegetables and practising transcendental meditation. The only thing spoiling his peaceful existence is the sound of ATV's and partying in the wooded area at the back of his property. When Rambo rode down there last month to tell the ATV riders to get off his property, they just laughed at him. Rambo didn't appreciate their rudeness. He decided to discourage them in a different way. He strung trip wires through the trees and dug pits, which he then covered over with branches and leaves to disguise them. Last weekend, seven ATV riders were knocked off their vehicles or fell into pits; three suffered broken bones, and two experienced wrecked ATV's. All are now threatening to sue Rambo.

  • Explain to Rambo what his rights and responsibilities as the property owner might be in this situation. (10 marks)
