In theory only people that are in control of the premises can ask you to leave. In many stores, a simple employee does not have the authority to ask you to leave.

It doesn't matter what their corporate policy is if any employee asks you to leave you better gitIf a store owner or ANYONE else that is in charge of the property, that would include management, asks you to leave and you do not, you are trespassing by definition. There are no exceptions unless you are a LEO in the course of your duties and not involved in activity that would require a warrant.Just because the store manager asks you to leave doesn't mean you have to..... his asking you to leave does not constitute trespassing if you don't........but only if you can justify yourself and 'help' him see his error by answering correctly to the disinformed.
