Kyle Dew and Mossy Woods & Waters, LLC, a Mississippi Limited Liability Company v. Greenwood Leflore Consolidated…

Summary

The Court held that Mossy Lake is navigable in fact and was part of Mississippi's public waters trust when the state entered the Union. Because public waters were excluded from the sixteenth-section grant, the School District did not acquire title to the lake portion or authority to exclude lawful users, so the chancery court's judgment was reversed and remanded. The opinion had no separate writings.
