Reed v. Cloninger
Jan 01, 2007OUTCOME: new law on statute of limitations
Emerging issues are arising because of migration of former-urban dwellers into agricultural areas. In this case, the new landowner argued that irrigation, which had been going on for almost a century, ... should be stopped because it was causing flooding on his land. After winning on summary judgment for the irrigation district, this case was taken to the Wyoming Supreme Court, resulting in a clarification of the state's law on continuing trespass and the statute of limitations.
