That subject heading is the title of this RMN article, verbatim. So even the media is calling it a land grab.
Read all about it here…
I say, good for the adversely affected neighbors to not simply appeal and at least entertain some offers. That’s more than I would do.
While adverse possession cases make the news in Boulder, they are not at all uncommon in rural areas in Colorado. I finished defending one last week and have another brewing.
Colorado is one of the few Torrens states left. A Torrens title is title to land perfected via a court order that make the title immune from adverse possession claims. Unfortunately, few people spend the time or money necessary to perfect title in this manner.
In my opinion, adverse possession ought to be harder to perfect than it is.
An enlighted legislator (if there are any these days) ought to introduce legislation in the next session that either (1) makes Torrens registration simpler and cheaper; and/or (2) requires adverse possession claimants to record their claim to the property they seek to possess similar to how a lis pendens notice of pending lawsuits affecting real property is recorded today. Such a recording would give public notice of the adverse claim. Then, if the recorded claim is not challenged for the statutory period (18 years), a claim for adverse possession can proceed.
I doubt many of those cases result in 1/3 of the property being awarded to the plaintiff, though.
Interesting poll

Don’t be surprized if you have more in common with Ron Paul than others …
I’m Mike Gravel (1) and Dennis Kucinich (2)…
Ron Paul wasn’t even on the radar. Thank goodness!
but these polls never include anything touching on leadership qualities. As a Progressive Dem, for instance, I always wind up with Kucinich at or near the top on various quizzes but I don’t think he’d make a good President even if he had a snowball’s chance in hell.
He’s too much of a self righteous scold to be the kind of leader who could bring enough people along with him to get things done. He seems to have little tolerance for any level of compromise or ability to charm or cajole and I wouldn’t trust his judgement in choosing the kind of inner circle who could help him achieve his aims.
Edwards is always the highest on my list among those who have any semblance of a real shot at it but never number one, though he is my strong preference.
Then Gravel, Richardson.
Too bad Kucinich is a loon. He’s a terrible spokesperson for some excellent ideas.
Thank god psycho Ron Paul wasn’t on my list!
has earned himself a credible primary opponent for his house seat.

Looks like his ego may just cost him his seat in congress.
Just about spot on for me…
I matched almost 100% to Tom Tancredo.
Woo hoo
Actually, I agree in general principles with TT’s immigration concerns. Not some details or solutions, but the general principles.
But what a lousy leg. Misses more votes than any other CO leg and has no concerns or bills other than immigration.
Looks like the U.S. Atty. filed a response to Corey Voorhis’ claim of selective prosecution, saying that the other two instances of NCIC computer access were different from Voorhis’ partisan activities.
The story in today’s Post also mentioned that Voorhis supposedly met with John Marshall and Alan Phipps during the ’06 campaign.
Moonraker, care to comment?

Well, well!
If the finish in Iowa is Edwars, Obama, Clinton then we have a real 3-way race. And I think that would be good – let’s have some real competition and find out which one of them can campaign the best.
That Hillary would come in 3rd. If that happens it’s going to get really nasty very quickly.
We don’t elect the one that can govern best, we elect the one that can campaign best.
And with modern visual media, Abe Lincoln could not get elected today. But Dan Quayle did along with Poppy, which shows ta go ya.
