Basic Concepts of Quiet Title Actions
A quiet title action is a legal proceeding that allows a property owner to establish or clear the title to their property. It is often used when there are disputes or uncertainties regarding the ownership of a property. The action can be brought against anyone who claims an interest in the property, including adverse possessors, lienholders, and even the government.
How Quiet Title Actions Work
In a quiet title action, the plaintiff (the person bringing the action) must prove that they have the superior title to the property. This can be done by presenting evidence of ownership, such as a deed, a will, or a court order. The defendant (the person contesting the title) must then prove that they have a valid claim to the property.
If the plaintiff is successful in proving their case, the court will issue a judgment declaring that they are the rightful owner of the property. This judgment will extinguish any other claims to the property and will give the plaintiff the exclusive right to possession and use of the property.
