- HCA795/2010
The plaintiff failed to prove on the balance of probabilities that he had exclusive and continuous possession with the required animus from 1976; evidence shows a tenancy continued until about 1989 and active steps by the owners and developers thereafter, so adverse possession, if it began, could only have started in 1989 and the 20-year period necessary for title had not been satisfied; claim dismissed.
