<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">I currently have a case where I represent the Defendant (D) against an adverse possession claim brought by the Plaintiff (P) who is pro
se but is somewhat sophisticated based on his long history with the property at issue. To summarize the somewhat long and complicated history, the P here purchased the property back in 2003, took out a number of loans secured by DOT's on the property, one
of which was recorded in 2007. The property was eventually foreclosed due to nonpayment of the 2007 DOT and a Trustees deed recorded in 2017. P here fought the foreclosure in numerous actions both before and after the trustees deed but eventually lost all
cases and appeals. D, my client, purchased the property in 2020 knowing P was still on the property, and subsequently initiated eviction proceedings.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">P's response to D's eviction proceedings was a separate action for adverse possession, which we're now in the process of defending. The
absurdity is that P is trying to claim years prior to 2017 as part of the 10-year statutory period required for adverse possession. As he was the title owner up until the 2017 trustees deed, he has no legitimate claim that his possession prior to that was
in any way "hostile." I assume any judge will take one look at this and recognize the absurdity of P's claims.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">However, for whatever reason I have been unable to find any good case-law that is explicit on this point, perhaps because no one has
dared to make the argument on appeal. Does anyone know of any good case-law, statutory provision(s), or other commentary that directly addresses the title owners inability to claim adverse possession during periods of the claimants clear title ownership of
the property at issue? While I'm confident that most judges will see right through P's claims, I would like to provide clear legal precedent if possible. Thank you for any help that you can provide.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
