Killip v. Mannisto , 624 N.W.2d 224, 244 Mich. App. 256, (Michigan state court) (2001) (Shortened, simplified, all internal cites omitted.)
This action arises out of a dispute over a strip of land situated between the lots of two neighbors. Plaintiff Killip has been using this strip of land since approximately 1975 as a portion of Killip- driveway but is in fact titled in defendant Mannisto's name. Mannisto told Killip to tear up the portion of the driveway on Mannisto- land and stop using it. Killip sued Mannisto and asked the lower court to determine Killip had an easement by prescription in the disputed strip. The trial court ruled in Killip-favor saying an easement by prescription had arisen and Killip had the right to continue to use the area as a driveway.
