Salazar v. Terry
Supreme Court of Colorado
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Mullarkey
We granted certiorari on the issue of whether a one hundred-year old division fence lost its identity as a boundary dividing two parcels of land because title to the land on both sides of the fence was acquired and held by one entity for a fifteen-day period in 1977.1 The court of appeals, overturning the decision of the trial court, held that the fence lost its legal significance as a boundary when the two parcels of land were held under common ownership for a period of fifteen days. Terry v. Salazar, 892 P.2d 391 (Colo.App.1994). We affirm the court of appeals.
