In the Matter of the Village of Olean, Respondent v. John J. Steyner, Appellants

Summary

The Court affirmed the lower court's order awarding only nominal damages for the taking of a public easement, holding that the landowners possessed an easement in Fifth Street, that no dedication to the public had occurred, that adverse possession did not extinguish the easement, and that the proceeding could not raise the dedication issue.
