U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 14-3025
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines
[PUBLISHED] [Murphy, Author, with Melloy and Smith, Circuit Judges]
Civil Case - Diversity. District court's grant of summary judgment to
Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad on breach of contract claim is
affirmed, as Quality Ag's claim to ownership of property by adverse
possession failed as a matter of law because Quality Ag did not have
exclusive possession for the required time period; alleged maintenance
agreement failed for lack of consideration.
