Striegel v. Swajian CA4/2
In this action, cross-complainants and appellants, George and Patricia Striegel (the Striegels), through their revocable intervivos trust, the Striegel Family Revocable Trust, dated October 19, 1991 (the Striegel Trust), sought to quiet title to an easement by prescription for ingress and egress to their unimproved, five-acre parcel in Cahuilla Hills (the Striegel Parcel), over a dirt roadway or “access route” traversing seven other parcels. Cross-defendants and respondents, Gregory A. Swajian and Dawn M. Swajian (the Swajians), Bighorn Development, LLC (Bighorn), and Marie Befeld (Befeld), owned six of the other seven parcels. Following a bench trial, the court denied the Striegels’ prescriptive easement claim and entered judgment in favor of cross-defendants on the Striegels’ cross-complaint.
