Boundary Enforcement Action Barred by Statute of Limitations

A property owner initiated action against a neighbor seeking to enforce a boundary line demarcation stipulated in a prior court judgment, alleging the neighbor's construction encroached upon the established boundary, but the lower court dismissed the claim, finding that the action was time-barred because the owner waited too long after the construction was completed to file suit. The high court upheld the dismissal, reasoning that while the prior judgment established the definitive boundary, the right to enforce a physical boundary against an encroachment is subject to the prescriptive period applicable to actions concerning property rights, which commenced upon the completion of the allegedly encroaching structure.
