H 1907 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act relative to appealing a notice of disinvitation

This bill (HD 2417) creates a legal process for people who receive a written notice stating they are no longer welcome on property and would face criminal trespass if they enter. It allows them to file a complaint in district court to cancel the notice if the person who issued it abused their authority over the property. If the court agrees, it will cancel the notice, and the person can use this as a legal defense against any trespass charges. The bill directly affects property owners, tenants, or visitors who receive such disinvitation notices, providing a court-based remedy instead of automatic trespass penalties.
