§ 11212. Adverse Possession Under Claim Not in Writing.

For the purpose of constituting an adverse possession by a person claiming title, not founded upon a

written instrument, judgment, or decree, land is deemed to have been possessed and occupied in the

following cases only:

(a) Where it has been protected by a substantial enclosure;

(b) Where it has been usually cultivated or improved; provided, however, that in no case shall

adverse possession be considered established under the provisions of any section or sections of this

Title, unless it shall be shown that the land has been occupied and claimed for the period of ten years

continuously, and the party or persons, their predecessors and grantors, have paid all the taxes which

have been levied and assessed on such land.
