From July 29, 2000 Santa Cruz Sentinel:

But Yonts also made it clear Friday that the company cannot forcibly remove the
activists from their perches.

"I am concerned about violence of any sort with removal," Yonts told Redwood
Empire’s attorney, Stephen Usoz of San Jose. "My primary concerns are property rights
and safety, but since this is so little (of an area), I won’t authorize you to go up with a
group and circle" them to remove them by force.

Note correct spelling of Yonts; I R egnr

It was the tree sitter that initiated force when he trespassed. Self-defense force used to remove the tree sitter would be defend ones own property rights. Judge Yonts wilfully violated the property owner's rights while catering to the criminal.

If the judge ordered the lumber company to not forcibly remove them, how about if the judge issued an arrest warrant for the tree-sitters?

Seems fair to me. They could get served with the arrest warrant pretty easily.
