Indiana Court of Appeals
Aaron Howe and Kinsey Howe v. Lehe Farms, Inc. and DK Livestock, LLC
25A-PL-226
Civil plenary. Affirms the White Circuit Court’s order granting judgment to LeheFarms, Inc. and DK Livestock LLC for its claims to quiet title to a disputed 2.7-acre strip of land under three theories: title by acquiescence, adverse possession, and prescriptive easement. Finds the trial court carefully evaluated extensive testimony showing nearly 70 years of consistent boundary recognition between the Lehes and the Hendryx family. Also finds the evidence amply supported the trial court’s conclusion that both families, through their conduct, implicitly agreed to the fence as the boundary between their properties. Attorney for appellant: Aaron Spolarich. Attorneys for appellee: Brian Karle, John Schafer.
