“If he was on her property and she told him to leave, he was trespassing.”
The power company has legal authority to read/maintain/swap the meter. They may even have an easement on her property. It’s just a fact of life.
Smart meters WILL be used to extract more money from people, you can count on that, but pulling a gun on the power company is not the solution to that, and she may end up in jail.
Not if they have an easement to read or service the meter, which they do.
i don’t think this is semantics but if she showed him a gun, say in her hand hanging at her side pointed to the ground, i think that is different than pulling a gun on him which i think means poiting it at him. but i work with technical writers and we have a need for precision in verbage.
“If he was on her property and she told him to leave, he was trespassing.”
I don’t know. Public utilities are granted easements by states to get to their property. I’ll be looking for a follow-up to the story.

Not to mention he pushed her out of the way two times so that would be assault.
