Colony of Wellfleet, Inc. v. Harris

The Colony of Wellfleet, Inc. (the Colony), appeals from a judgment of the Land Court denying the Colony’s request that the court expunge a 1978 deed transferring title to a cottage and the land upon which it is located (lot 49) to Edith Keyes Harris. The Colony argues that the Land Court judge (1) had a duty under G. L. c. 185, § 114, to expunge an errone*523pus registration of a deed in fee where the transferee was not a purchaser in good faith; (2) committed an error of law in ruling that the Colony ratified the 1978 deed in 1983; and (3) erred in finding the Colony guilty of loches. We affirm.
