Conn. Gen. Stat. § 16-237
(1949 Rev., S. 5648; P.A. 14-134, S. 31.)
Trial court properly determined that statute precluded defendants from invoking the law of adverse possession to justify their continued unauthorized use of plainitff utility company's property; defendants' claim that statute was inapplicable because waters of lake were not "buildings or land" was unavailing given that dock was attached to land owned by plaintiff. 92 CA 753.
