Motion to Compel Third Party Group to Comply with Deposition Subpoena for Production of Business Records and for sanctions
was continuous for a period of more than five (5) years; (2) their use was open and -notorious; and (3) hostile and adverse to Plaintiffs. Permissive or neighborly use defeats a claim for a prescriptive easement. Plaintiffs allege that Cross-Complainants use of the Travelled Way over and across Plaintiffs' property has always been permissive. First, beginning in 1978 parcels 1 and 2 were owned by the sub divider's sister and her husband until 2018, and Cross-Complainant's have not submitted any evidence that E.
Neuharth was hostile of adverse to his own sister or her husband. Since Plaintiffs bought parcel one in 2018, the Cross-Complainants and Plaintiffs had been friendly and neighborly with Plaintiffs allowing Cross-Complainants to cross over parcel 1 to access parcels 3 and 4 and the Mudd property. Apparently, the parties all worked together to install an electric gate on parcel one at the starting point for the parcel 1 easement. Because there is a significant factual dispute as to a critical element for the creation of a prescriptive easement, namely: adverse, hostile and non-permissive use, the Motion for Summary Adjudication is denied.
All objections made are overruled. Request for Judicial Notice by Cross-Complainants as to Exhibits A-J is Granted. Counsel for Plaintiffs is directed to prepare an Order After Hearing.
