• right of public to use road was not 17 right or interest for purposes of the QTA
• plaintiffs interest as a member of the public in using an R.S. 2477 right-of-way is an insufficient interest to state a claim under the Quiet. Title Act
• “The Eighth Circuit has concurred that the right 27 of an individual to use a public road is not a right or interest in property for purposes of the Quiet Title Act.”
• “An R.S. 2477 right-of-way authorizes the use of the land within its scope as highway, which . . . means use as a public road. As an R.S. 2477 right-of-way cannot exist without the public road and vi[ce] versa, the two are essentially synonymous in this context.”
