The good neighbor rule does not apply in cases of air pollution.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false

Question 2

The Judsons deeded their property to the Synders, using a deed with a description that a court has determined to be legally inadequate. The Snyders, using the same description, deeded the property to the Crismons. The Crismons lived on the property for 32 years. The children of the Snyders then emerged to reclaim the property stating that the deed was legally insufficient to transfer title. Explain the parties' rights.

Answer to Question 1

FALSE

Answer to Question 2

A deed without a legally sufficient description does not pass title. Therefore, the Snyders did not have title. And if the Snyders did not have title, then the Crismons did not have title. However, the complicating facts in this situation are that the parties behaved in a way that found them concluding the description was legally sufficient. In fact, it is likely that the Crismons acquired, through adverse possession, something they may not have had through a deed. If the Snyders did not have title then the Crismons did not have title (unless adverse possession applies) and the result would be that the Judsons' heirs would have title.
