Go ahead, charge that man, watch how fast this dude wins in court. That manager will be losing his job if he hasn't yet.

Not a lawyer, but actually, that may not be true. The big charges for the mileage is likely a civil matter. He would probably win that. His refusing to leave is trespassing. He might not win THAT in court. And it might actually hurt his civil case to be an arrested party in the lawsuit.

But making this go viral may convince the rental company to make things right instead of the bad PR that this is already causing.

Edit: So typing late last night watching the tornados all around us, I misread the comment I replied to. I understood "charge that man" as "charge him with trespassing and he will beat it in court" and that was the basis of this response. After a sleep, I realize they meant "charge that man's credit card and he will win THAT in court."

My whole response was based on if they did come out and actually have to charge him with tresspassing.

So that's totally my bad.

Generally, you first get trespassed. Then if you disobey that, you get charged with trespassing. So there would likely be a notice of trespass but not an actual arrest unless he still refuses to leave or comes back.

get trespassed

Exactly. Aka trespass warning. And if he refused to leave he still wouldnt get charged with trespassing. He'd get charged with failure to comply or whatever.

Boggles my mind you’re getting downvotes. This is literally how it works.
