Alaska Supreme Court
Jay Yuk and Hee Su Yuk, Appellants v. Sidney L. Robertson Sr. and Theresa A. Robertson, Appellees
May 26, 20172017 Alas. LEXIS 61
Summary
The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed the superior court’s summary‑judgment granting the Robertsons title to a disputed strip of land. It held that adverse possession may be raised as an affirmative defense, that citing an unpublished decision was permissible, and that the municipal sewer easement did not defeat the exclusivity or hostility requirements. The Court found the Robertsons satisfied all elements of adverse possession by clear and convincing evidence.
