THIS IS THE LAW
ADVERSE POSSESSION
OF CHATTELS
Taylor stole a valuable and
distinctive type of diamond ring
from the jewelry store of Sutton
on January 10, 1965. The follow
ing day tire ring was sold to
Webster, who has since worn it
regnlarly. May Sutton today re
cover the ring from Webster?
No. Web.ster has acquired own
ership to the ring under the doc
trine of adverse possession.
If a person holds openly and
adversely the personal property
of another for a period of three
years, the original owner in
North Carolina and most states
cannot bring a legal action to re
cover the same. A strong public
policy forbids adverse claimants
from disturbing the existing sit
uation by the presentation of an
cient rights, concerning which
proof may be difficult because
of faulty recollection and the ab-
limc couhl Ihfir be a more
altpiopriate for her day.

It is possible for a thief, or a
pe.‘son who purchases from a
thief w ith knowledge of the theft,
to liold so openly and notoriously
as to acquire title under the doc
trine of adverse possession.
The mere fact that the original
owner has searched with duo
I diligence for his stolen or lost
chattel is not enough In Itself to;
prevent acquisition by adverse
; possession. The fact that the
original true owner did not know
who had his chattel during the
three-year period is immaterial. [
Ownership to real property'
may be ac<iuiretl under the doe-'
trine of adverse possession, but|
he statutory period in such ease
is much longer. I
« * * {
Allen lends a book or other
item of personal property to
Bost. May Allen ten years later
recover the book or other Item
of personal property from Bost?
Yes. The doctrine of adverse
possession d<«!s not apply to
bailees or agents who accfuired
their original possession with
the express consent of the own
er. Bost was a bailee of the book!
or other item of personal prop
erty. He held it from the begin
ning in subordination to the
rights of the true owner.
No length of possession by a.
bailee or agent, as .such, will|
bar the property rights of the
owner.
But if the true owner demands
‘he return of his property fromi
one to whom he has loaned or|
leased it, and the person in pos-,
session refuses to do so and
claims the property to be his'
own, then from this time on-i
wanist he party in possession
may be considered as holding
the property adverse and hostile
to the true owner. The true own-j
er should bring his action for re-|
covery within three years from-
this time. If he does not, the par-'
fy now claiming an adverse and:
hostile possession will become the
legal owner after the expiration'
of three years. |
The finder of lost pronerty iS|
classified as a bailee, holding the;
oroperty not -adversely but for
•>1'' hRnf'''it of the true owner.
