Opinion
September 28, 1998
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Rudolph, J.).
Ordered that the order is reversed insofar as appealed from, on the law, with costs, the motion is granted, and the complaint is dismissed.
The defendants installed a fence around their property in 1982. That same year, the plaintiff's representative wrote to the defendants to inform them that their newly-installed fence was on the plaintiff's property and should be moved. The defendants never moved the fence. This action, which was commenced approximately 13 years later, is barred by the applicable 10-year Statute of Limitations ( see, CPLR 212 [a]).
Rosenblatt, J.P., Ritter, Copertino and Florio, JJ., concur.
