Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Adverse possession allows a party to claim ownership of land if they have occupied it openly, continuously, and without permission for a statutory period, which is often around 20 years. Since Equipment's garage has encroached on Freight's property for three decades, Equipment is likely to be granted ownership of the land beneath the garage.
