If Banks has been paying taxes on that land it’s his and i would be going to another court . Squatters rights my @SS!
If Banks had a real title to this land, he would not owe taxes on it.
It is so hard for me to believe that these laws are still the best way to do this in the 21st century.
banks if he can’t get the land back through the court should sue her for 20 years of taxes paid on the land along with interest for the money paid out and legal fees. my guess is that the taxes at this point and interest are more than the value of the property.
Paying taxes on land in Delaware doesn’t prove anything in the courts in this state. The courts will still give your land to any grifter who claims they were there for 20 years and ‘openly’ occupied it. Been there . Had land ‘legally’ taken by a judge who said a trespasser had more rights than I did.
And why the whole parcel and not just the 1/3 acre she was using? Doesn’t make sense to give away the whole pie just because someone took a bite.
