He has a pretty good argument on removing the cattle. Nevada law requires someone who wants to keep cattle off of his place, to build a fence. Thus the feds should be required to build a fence around his 160 acres.
I'll bet he has been pretty smart about things in that the cows have always been out there and they started on his place. Up until he actually went and released them from BLM custody, I think he had a really good argument that he was not in violation of the court order.
