OPINION

LESL'IE, Judge.

Respondents sought a judgment declaring and granting an easement by prescription across an eight-foot driveway located on the property of appellants. Appellants disputed the existence of the easement.

The trial court found that respondents have an easement by prescription over the driveway in question up to the point where the driveway branches off to respondents’ property. We affirm.

FACTS

Appellants and respondents currently own adjacent parcels of property on Lake Alexander. The disputed driveway runs between the parcels, but is totally situated on appellants’ land.
