It sounds like to me your cousin is going to hhave to keep an eye on his boundaries to make sure there is no one cutting his land for him. They used to have a problem up here with wood cutters moving in during the winter months when a lot of out of staters were away and cut the land for them. They would make money off the trees and if they got caught they only had to pay a fine for it. Now I think here they have to pay around $300 a tree. So this discourage them from cutting somebody elses land..
