<p>The references to various statutes in this thread are a great example of the kind of education this site is designed to foster. However, I want to reiterate Mr. Minton's warning that this is a matter to be handled by an attorney. When it comes to matters of possession and prescription, Louisiana law can be delicate and unforgiving. Inadvertent missteps that are easily made can cost you later on in the process.

<p>LN posted another question yesterday stating that a mobile home has been moved in and there is an old abandoned home located on the property. I had some dealings with moving and setting up an mobile home a couple of years ago and I was shocked at the Parish requirements and permits for doing such.</p>
<p>LN might be able to stir up a wasp nest if he/she asked the Police Jury the right questions about this home being set up on their property. If the squatter moved and set up the home without the correct permits, they could be violating Parish Code.</p> Like to add if there is any q…tag:gohaynesvilleshale.com,2013-03-06:2117179:Comment:28710032013-03-06T05:17:16.876ZP.G.https://gohaynesvilleshale.com/profile/PG

<p>If someone just moved onto land..it would take 30 years...but if someone believed they bought the land and had a title from a seller..although the seller didn't really own it..perhaps an unknown heir...it was just 10 years...</p>

<p>And yes they mentioned..I believe...that if someone used someone's property for 10 years..parked a car or used it to access something..etc....they could keep on using it...but that wouldn't be ownership...That would be like an implied easement...</p>
<p>I believe we were told the way to stop someone from making claims...such as the neighbor parking on your property..even if you didn't mind would be to give your permission...that would stop the prescriptive time...but you should have a way to prove you gave permission...perhaps in writing and with acknowledgement..</p> Check out this link PG...

<p>Someone driving through your property to access their property for 10 years might have a possibility of "gaining" ownership of that "servitude" by acquisitive prescription. </p>
<p>I think what LN is dealing with would require 30 years of continued residence.</p>
