That would have been like the precedent setting case.

Yeah.

And, and, and, you know, it's all right.

We can still fight these things, but, uh, an attorney is going to be like, Hey, here's the deck that's stacked against you.

Like, I'll take your money, but like they declined to hear it.

Right.

Yep.

So back here in the Ninth Circuit, the state of Montana has this long history of paying attention to corner crossing, not paying attention to corner crossing.

Internal memos saying we are not going to issue citations.

We'll defer to the county attorney's office.

Once the Tenth Circuit comes,

court decision was made, then we started to see things change here in the state of Montana where they were kind of beefing up their language.

The state was beefing up the language.

Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks is, you know, they don't get to create laws and rules and regulations.

They just enforce them.

And so they're the mouthpiece for this, right?

And

Eventually, they essentially created a rule by saying wardens are going to cite for corner crossing.

And at that point, Montana BHA and eventually myself had to have multiple conversations with the state.
