Finally, defendants offered a survey from June 2008 by Ferguson & Foss, professional land surveyors, that defendants commissioned in 2008 and that located the property in the disputed location, referencing several of the landmarks identified in the deed. We note that the aforementioned surveys were on file with the Fulton County Clerk for more than 10 years and carry an inference of their accuracy (see CPLR 4522 ; Elm Lansing Realty Corp. v. Knapp, 192 A.D.3d 1348, 1351, 145 N.Y.S.3d 160 [3d Dept. 2021] ; Gholizadeh v. Keifer, 66 A.D.3d 1209, 1211, 887 N.Y.S.2d 313 [3d Dept. 2009] ; Town of Skaneateles v. Lang, 179 A.D.2d 1032, 1032, 579 N.Y.S.2d 516 [4th Dept. 1992] ; compareMcFarland v. Michel, 2 A.D.3d 1297, 1299, 770 N.Y.S.2d 544 [4th Dept. 2003] ; Greenberg v. Manlon Realty, Inc., 43 A.D.2d 968, 969, 352 N.Y.S.2d 494 [2d Dept. 1974] ). Accordingly, we find that the foregoing was sufficient to "establish[ ] defendant[s'] prima facie entitlement to quiet title to the disputed area" and the burden then "shifted to plaintiff to produce competent evidence in admissible form establishing the existence of material issues of fact" ( Torpy's Pond & Outdoor Club, Inc. v. DuSell, 198 A.D.3d at 1220–1221, 157 N.Y.S.3d 157 [internal quotation marks, brackets and citation omitted]; seeLavine v. Town of Lake Luzerne, 296 A.D.2d 793, 794, 745 N.Y.S.2d 345 [3d Dept. 2002], lv denied 99 N.Y.2d 501, 752 N.Y.S.2d 588, 782 N.E.2d 566 [2002] ).
Contrary to defendant's initial contention, the court properly considered the deeds submitted by plaintiffs in support of their motion. All of those deeds, with the exception of defendant's own quitclaim deed, are more than 10 years old and therefore are "prima facie evidence of their contents" (CPLR 4522; see Bergstrom v McChesney, 92 AD3d 1125, 1126; Town of Skaneateles v Lang, 179 AD2d 1032, 1032). With respect to defendant's quitclaim deed, plaintiffs' attorney swore to its authenticity (see generally Sloninski v Weston, 232 AD2d 913, 914, lv denied 89 NY2d 809, rearg denied 89 NY2d 1086), and defendant herself relies on that deed in opposition to plaintiffs' motion.
The Cooper Survey was filed in 1962, more than 10 years prior to this action, and is presumed to be correct, and is prima facie evidence of its content in the absence of contradictory evidence (CPLR 4522; Skaneateles v Lang, 179 AD2d 1032 [4th Dept 1992]; see Commissioner of Social Services v Philip De G., 59 NY2d 137). Three of Plaintiff's witnesses, all licensed surveyors, opined that the boundary line projected along the wall of the Union Hotel.
