Stanley v. Doolette
Allwin B. Hall and Edmon Keller Stanley were lifelong friends. In 1998, Allwin[1]and his wife, Marguerite, purchased residential real property in Palm Desert. Stanley made all the payments on the property and either resided there intermittently or rented it out from the date of purchase forward. After a court trial on the issue of quiet title by adverse possession, the court gave judgment in favor of Stanley.
Patricia Anne Doolette, the trustee of the Hall trust and the executor of Marguerites estate, appeals. Court affirm the judgment because substantial evidence establishes the elements of adverse possession.
