Court upholds uncle's home ownership after nephew's 14-year rent-free stay

A Washington state appeals court has upheld an uncle's ownership of a family home. His nephew had lived there rent-free for 14 years and made several improvements to the property. The court ruled that the nephew did not establish adverse possession, which would have given him a claim to the house. It found insufficient evidence that both owners had revoked his permission to live there, which supported his removal from the property.
