Interesting question to think about. I had an experience just last week w/ crop damage. I rent a farm from my dad, he has a rental house on that farm. Real low life tenants, been there about a month. Young "man" (term used loosely)I guess he lives there, or just visits a lot. He took my dad's atv from the farm yard, keys were in it, returned it after a little joy ride, no damge to it or. But he did drive it through my corn field, figure 8s and all. Im surprised he didnt get lost out there. I got awfully mad about it. Couldnt find him, probably a good thing. So after I calmed down, I decided to call the sheriff and see if he'd come talk to the "man". Sheriff dropped in a couple of times, he wasnt there but heard he was in trouble. He disappeared for a week cause he was so scared. The moral of the story is, he learned his lesson, thats all I wanted. I figured the loss by walking the trails he made, .13 acres, $1000/acre, total of $130. It wasnt worth my time and effort to try and get compensated. Probably would never get it anyway. Where would I draw the line? It all depends on the situation. A generic amount would probably be $500-$1000 to get me in court. And then a judgement dosent mean money in the bank with the low lifes that usually are behind this kind of stuff. With an insurance claim, I might submit at less monetary loss. Matt
