What does it mean for a tenant to be trespassed?
Thanks for your response. It is my neighbors in my apartment complex who have been trespassed. My manager told me that if I see them going into their apartment to call the police. I saw them go in and called the police. However, the police told me they are allowed inside the apartment but not on the premises. So, needless to say, I am confused.

Nothing to be confused about. You have no business being involved in it. If you see them again you can choose to ignore it. You have no obligation to help the manager with those tenants. But if you think doing so will put you on his good side, call him when you see them and let him call the police or do whatever.
At this point, because you aren't involved in this matter, I would stay out of it.
No one knows what you see, but you.
As my beloved, departed mother would tell me, "Son, if you don't look for trouble, you won't find it."
You have no legal obligation to say anything to anyone.
The police aren't lawyers, but common sense would say that the ONLY way one could gain access to an apartment is to trespass over and upon the land these people are prohibited from entering.
If you reside in Bexar County, specifically San Antonio, it is easy to understand why the police might say that to you.
One, because you aren't a party to the dispute.
Two, the police have better things to do, like fight crime and protect people.
Three, the cops aren't lawyers and aren't expected to thoroughly know civil law.
Four, without reading the order, even I (as a Texas licensed attorney) don't know what it says in total.
Five, if it ain't your fight, stay out of it.
I wish you peace.
