Relevant factsFree
The Pulls (plaintiffs) built a cabin believing it sat on land they had purchased, unaware that most of that land, including the cabin site, actually belonged to neighbors Barnes and Moffat (defendants); after a survey revealed the true boundary, the defendants fenced off the property and claimed the cabin as their own by operation of law, and the Pulls sued to determine the property line and sought relief based on the defendants' conduct, including an estoppel theory the trial court rejected as inapplicable.
