No. 960
    PENFIELD v. REICHLIN, REEDY, SCANLAN CO.
    No. 20038.
    Supreme Court
    On motion to certify.
    Dock. Aug. 3, 1926;
    4 Abs. 541.
    45. ADVERSE POSSESSIONS — Can recovery be had of real estate when one holds same for 21 years, regardless of his knowledge of adverse holding?
    N. B. — See 4 Abs. 618.
    Attorneys — L. A. Tucker and Bayly, Lawrence & Beach, Cleveland, for Penfield; Glitsch & Stack, Lorain, for Company.
   The contention in this case is, does open, notorious, adverse possession of realty by the Company for more than 21 years under a claim of exclusive ownership, defeat action for recovery when Penfield had knowledge of such possession and adverse holding.
