I think it is adverse possession, as you mentioned...but I am not 100% sure.
I just know a guy who bought a house with an easement alley running behind it, here in Danville, that no one maintained. The alley led to nothing but a dead end. So he started mowing and taking care of it and was able to then claim ownership. I am sure there is more to it....but not sure of details of the law.
That is like the log cabin rule. Many people don't even know it exists and your courthouse will lie to you and tell you it don't exist. But it does exist.
Never heard of this. What is it?
