1Opinion of the Court

DANA, Justice.

Solomon’s Rock Trust 1 appeals from a judgment entered in the Superior Court (York County, Crowley, J.) declaring Jean V. Davis, the personal representative of the estate of Dean L. Davis, to be the owner of a parcel of uncultivated land to which the Trust claims ownership through adverse possession pursuant to the common law and 14 M.R.S.A § 816 (1980). The Trust also contends that the court abused its discretion in granting Davis’s motion to extend the time to file her answer and in excluding portions of the Trust’s rebuttal evidence. We affirm the judgment.
