Court partially allowed claim for compensation for unauthorized water pipeline use on private land.

The court partially granted the plaintiff's claim for compensation regarding the unauthorized installation of a water pipeline on his property. The defendant argued that the plaintiff failed to prove the claimed amount and that the claim was time-barred, while the plaintiff relied on expert valuation adjusted for the specific period sought. The court accepted the expert's valuation but reduced the award by deducting the portion covering the pre-litigation period that had already expired due to the statute of limitations.
