1. Rose William owned a house on Lake Nelson (located in Nelson, Florida); in 2002 she told Bronson Mason he could live there. In 2018 Ms. William sold the house to Brad Barron; Mr. Mason was still living in Ms. William's house. In Florida adverse possession requires that a person adversely possess the property (openly and notoriously) for at least seven years. Florida also requires that the person who is in possession of the property (in this question, Mr. Mason) have knowledge that possession is adverse. When Mr. Barron discovered Mr. Mason was living in the house, he sued him for trespass, although Mr. Mason alleges that he owns the house (and property) by adverse possession. Will Mr. Barron's lawsuit be successful? Explain your answer.
