Jerry Lee v. Jana Smith

Syllabus

This is a dispute regarding the ownership of a gravel lane used to access a 95-acre tract of land Plaintiffs appeal the trial court's dismissal of their suit to quiet title to the property or, alternatively, for a declaration that they acquired ownership of the road through adverse possession. The trial court held that Tennessee Code Annotated section 28-2-110 barred Plaintiffs from pursuing their claim of ownership because there was no proof that they had paid taxes on the property at issue for twenty years, as required by the statute finding no error, we affirm the judgment.
