Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District / May 25, 2021
Gary Coleman vs. Heath Hartman, et al
Gary Coleman appealed a trial court judgment awarding title to 0.35 acres of his property to Heath and Kellie Hartman based on adverse possession. Coleman argued that the evidence did not support the Hartmans' claims of boundary by acquiescence or adverse possession. The appellate court affirmed the trial court's judgment, finding substantial evidence supported the Hartmans' claim of adverse possession, thereby rendering the boundary by acquiescence claim moot.
