<div> To add to what Rick stated, the cost to log the trees is totally the burden of the client, who had no right to trade them for logging costs. Both the logger and the client are liable for unlawful conversion. I am not sure the timber trespass cases apply as your client had the right(assuming it was reasonably necessary) to log, but did not have the right to convert them to his own use. In these circumstances, we ask the landowner what he/she wants done with them and try to reach an understanding. If not, then I tell the client to leave them on the ground out of the way.</div>
<div> I would have the logger tell you what he was paid for them(not stumpage as that takes into account the cost of logging), and send the land owner a check ASAP.</div>
