Seems I read the new law differently then Kopect does.
Like most, this law has many dangerous "loopholes" that can come back and bite the NY landowner.
Note that the newly modifed 9-103 statute law that is supposed to release the landowner from responsibity, clearly states the following:
"does not limit the liability . . . for willful or malicious failure to guard or to warn against a dangerous condition . . . "
So, if I "willfully" put up a fence, or "willfully" don't remove a leaning tree, and somebody crashes into it and gets hurt, I certainly can get sued and/or charged - in criminal court and/or in a civil court.
Show me a law that states - the BS ends here and the land owner is fully protected - no matter what - and the user takes his and her chances, - then I'll go for it.
Remember that when somebody takes you to court- fair or not fair - you have to show up.
