A long-running dispute between an engineering firm and the Housing Development Corporation (HDC) over the ownership of more than eight acres of State land in Valsayn South through adverse possession has been settled by the High Court.
Justice Westmin James found that Dipcon Engineering Services Ltd lawfully acquired ownership and exercised open, exclusive and continuous possession of the land for well beyond the statutory limitation period, extinguishing the State’s title and entitling the company to possession of the property.
Dipcon was represented by Colin Kangaloo, SC, Simone Jaggernauth-Clarke and John Lee.
