What Pennsylvania Law Says About Clearing A Neighbor’s Vines Growing Over Your Fence

A plant can trespass on your property, at least in the eyes of a court. That sounds like a joke, yet judges in Pennsylvania have treated creeping greenery from next door as a real legal intrusion. Personally, I find that oddly satisfying. Those leafy tendrils sneaking over the top rail...

Penn Law's new AI law clerk

AI judges like the one in "Mercy" are still a Hollywood hallucination, but Penn researchers are preparing real judges for a future when the technology becomes a fixture in their chambers.
