Case Facts & Court Holding
Key Facts & Case Background
Defendants, a legal aid attorney and a health services field worker for federally funded non-profits, entered private farmland owned by Tedesco to provide assistance to migrant farmworkers housed on the property. Tedesco employed the workers and provided them with housing as part of their compensation. When the defendants arrived to meet with specific workers, Tedesco confronted them. He offered to locate the workers but insisted that any consultation occur in his office and in his presence. The defendants refused, asserting the workers’ right to privacy. Tedesco then had the defendants charged with criminal trespass for refusing to leave the premises. The defendants’ organizations were established under federal law to provide legal and health services to migrant workers, a population the court described as isolated and disadvantaged.
