New York Court of Appeals
Joseph La Porto v. Village of Philmont, and Town of Claverack, Intervenor-Appellant
February 19, 197639 N.Y.2d 7
Summary
The New York Court of Appeals reversed the Appellate Division, holding that the Village of Philmont's long acquiescence to boundaries outside its 1911 map bars it from asserting jurisdiction over the disputed lands, which remain outside the village limits.
