[WSBARP] Adverse possession taxes/assessments, improvements & attorney's fees

[Ron Housh]

Question also related to: adverse possession and taxes and whether anyone
has litigated the following issue:

 

RCW 7.28.083(2) states:   If the court orders reimbursement for taxes or
assessments paid or payment of taxes or assessments due under subsection (1)
of this section, the court shall determine how to allocate taxes or
assessments between the property acquired by adverse possession and the
property retained by the title holder. In making its determination, the
court shall consider all the facts and shall order such reimbursement or
payment as appears equitable and just.

 

If the adverse claimant is successful in establishing that the 10 year
prescriptive period ran from 1968 to 1978 as to 1/10th of a tax parcel is is
"equitable and just" and does the Court have the authority to order
reimbursement of 1/10 of the taxes from 1978 to date - 37 years?

 

Thanks,

Ron
