Nevada Supreme Court

Jones v. Ghadiri

April 18, 2024140 Nev. Adv. Op. No. 27

Summary

The Nevada Supreme Court affirmed summary judgment against the Joneses, holding that a comprehensive prescriptive easement that would completely exclude the servient owner may be recognized only in exceptional circumstances. The Joneses’ requested exclusive control over nearly 600 square feet was substantively an adverse-possession claim and did not present the exceptional circumstances necessary for such relief. The court also declined to consider the Joneses’ challenge to the authentication of the survey because it was not raised below.
