Their theory of recovery was ownership by adverse possession. Appellees Fuss and the State of Wyoming are record titleholders of the disputed land. The trial judge entered judgment in favor of the record titleholders and quieted title in them. Appellants designate the issues as follows: 1. Did the plaintiffs and their predecessors in interest have actual, open, notorious, exclusive and hostile possession of the disputed lands under a claim of right for a period of ten consecutive years? 2. Were the trial court's Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law incomplete and in error?Ī sketch of the area, although not to scale, may help. The disputed land involves two adjoining tracts immediately north of the North Platte River. Appellees Fuss are the record titleholders of the SW 1/4 NE 1/4, Section 32. Appellee State of Wyoming is the record titleholder of 17.58 acres of the SE 1/4 NE 1/4, Section 32. Appellants are the record titleholders of the N 1/2 NE 1/4 of Section 32, which land is immediately north of the disputed tracts. Appellants claim the northernmost 13.9 acres of the Fuss tract and the 17.58 acres of the State of Wyoming tract. The North Platte River flows easterly across the S 1/2 NE 1/4 of Section 32, leaving a portion of the SW 1/4 NE 1/4 and the SE 1/4 NE 1/4 lying north of the river and a portion lying south of the river.
