Minor v. Minor

EDMUNDS, Justice.

Although defendant-appellant Sandra Minor (defendant) alleged in her counterclaim and at trial that she became the owner of an entire parcel of land through adverse possession, she argued on appeal that the trial court erred in failing to instruct the jury that it could find she adversely possessed some portion of the parcel. We conclude that the trial court’s instructions were consistent both with defendant’s pleading and with her evidence that she adversely possessed the entire tract. Accordingly, we affirm the opinion of the Court of Appeals.
