or claim with respect to the property will continue for that period. (b) “ Exclusive ” means the enjoyment of a beneficial use of property, together with the ability to

exclude from occupancy persons or entities other than the owner who may interfere

with that enjoyment. (c) “ Independent ” means the ability to exercise authority and exert control over the management or

more than a mere agency.
