Sorry guys, I was just kidding. The mere possession of land for the prescribed period is not enough to acquire title. The other requirements for title by adverse possession are that it be:
(1) hostile or adverse; (2) actual, open and notorious; (3) exclusive; (4) continuous; and (5) under claim of right. Please note that absolute title by adverse possession is not a marketable title and owners under certain disabilities and minors are protected against adverse possession. Properties registered in Land Court are also protected and in Hawaii one can not claim title to land by adverse possession for land parcels of more than five acres.
I think I covered it all. [
