STATE OF MICHIGAN
COURT OF APPEALS
ERNEST E. LATREILLE and
JOYCE ELLEN LATREILLE,
UNPUBLISHED
August 5, 1997
Plaintiffs-Appellants,
v
No. 188129
Kent Circuit Court
LC No. 91-070264
BRUCE D. NIELSEN,
Defendant-Appellee,
and
STACEY NIELSEN,
Defendant.
Before: Neff, P.J., and Smolenski and D. A. Roberson*, JJ.
PER CURIAM.
Plaintiffs appeal as of right from the trial court’s judgment that defendant Bruce D. Nielsen has
an easement to park on plaintiffs’ property. We affirm.
Plaintiffs argue that the trial court erred in finding that defendant has a prescriptive easement to
park on the express easement for ingress and egress. We disagree. Rather, after reviewing the record,
we conclude that the trial court’s factual findings concerning the elements of a prescriptive easement
were not clearly erroneous. MCR 2.613(C); West Michigan Dock & Market Corp v Lakeland
Investments, 210 Mich App 505, 511; 534 NW2d 212 (1995); Goodall v Whitefish Hunting Club,
208 Mich App 642, 645-646; 528 NW2d 221 (1995); Connelly v Buckingham, 136 Mich App 462,
474; 357 NW2d 70 (1984). Accordingly, we affirm the trial court on this ground. In light of this
holding, we decline to address plaintiffs’ remaining issues.
