Defendants failed to establish adverse possession because they continued to pay rent and knew (or should have known) they were dealing with a new landlord or the landlord's authorised agent, thus lacking animus possidendi; evidence for a life tenancy was insufficient and summary judgment was inappropriate on the counterclaim; Master was correct to strike out the adverse possession claim and dismiss the summary judgment application.
