 * comment I am the author of the article. I do not feel very strongly about this article (nor do I have the time to participate in a deletion discussion), so personally I will defer to whatever consensus is reached on this deletion page.  However, speaking as a lawyer with a real estate background, my own opinion is that this article has potential to be expanded.  While it may look like a dictionary entry now, it is more fair to view it as a stub that just needs expanding.  That's my 2 cents.  Don't have time to comment again.

 * Perhaps you should expand it then. Septrillion (talk) 21:59, 27 April 2018 (UTC)

 * Merge with Trespass after a rewrite - probably could be a couple sentences as a before search brings up some common law stuff (though it wasn't that thorough of a search, to be honest). SportingFlyer  talk  05:00, 28 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. Yes, it's a stub, but the topic is notable and the subject of academic scholarship. See, e.g. Bernard J. Davies, Continuing Trespass, 59 J. Crim. L. Criminology & Police Sci. 24 (1968). Clicking on the links in "Finding sources" above, in particular the initial link (google search) and the JSTOR link show many more.
 * I note that the article was flagged as "unreferenced" at the same time as its AFD nomination. In fact, it has two references, but they were inline and perhaps not clearly seen as references. I've updated the article to make the references more clear and removed that tag. TJRC (talk) 22:36, 3 May 2018 (UTC)
