This process will only be successful if the true owner does not try to regain his property through legal methods in 10 years. After the time period a person can request a possessory title which will make them the true owner. In our case the caveat of possessory interest was filed in 2009 and it is currently 2016 so the time period has not passed yet. There is still a chance that my friend or the previous owner can legally regain their property. Through the correct legal proceedings, the property can be regained, this means that it should not actually be a problem for my friend. The only issue he should worry about is that he might want to think about rebuilding his fence so that in encloses all his property so this issue does not come up
