Mountain land title dispute in Frederick County decision
Associate Judge Patrick M. Schnauljfer ruled that the Levin Lewis claim to 25 5/8 acres in Thurmont district cannot be obtained by adverse possession merely by entering and cutting timber. Sherman O. Lewis had properly purchased the tract in 1954, and the court noted mountain lands require actual occupancy or cultivation to establish title by prescription. The ruling reflects unique mountain land rules diverging from tillable land standards.
