adversely possessed portions of the Rushings’ property described in the Merwin's
Petition as "the Disputed Green Space', and that the relief granted to the Rushings in
the Summary Judgment Order is not barred by a "de minimus doctrine" finding.
lT IS THEREFORE ORDERED. ADJUDGED and DECREED. that Lee Merwin
and Betty Melwin take nothing by their trespass to try title suit, and all relief requested
by the Merwins is DENIED.
