Federal Land Boundary Cases and Codes

By Tom Propst P.L.S.

This book is intended to be a complete collection of the Federal land boundary cases and code sections as referenced in each of the six editions of "Brown's Boundary Control and Legal Principles" ("Brown's"). This book is not affiliated with "Brown's", its Authors, or its publisher. Who should purchase this book: Land Surveyors, Title Personnel, Legal Professionals, Students, and others who would like a ready reference to the Federal cases and code sections referenced in "Brown's", regardless of which edition they have.There are three code sections and twenty-eight cases included in this collection.Each of the referenced cites are listed in the contents with the chapter, page, and footnote number where it was cited in each of the six editions. References cited in early editions and subsequently dropped are also listed and contained in this collection.These Federal cases include the graphic illustrations included in those reports. I have also included the exhibits from the 1973 "Manual of Survey Instructions" relevant to included cases "Lee Wilson v. United States" referred to as "Moon Lake" in the Manual, and "Jeems Bayou v. United States" called "the Ferry Lake Case" in the Manual.This is not intended to be a collection of cases definitive of the current law affecting land boundaries, and it should not be used as such. The practicing surveyor should perform the research necessary to ascertain the current state of law on any issue in controversy, and seek legal advice when appropriate. This book does not contain legal advice.This book compiles only the Federal cases and codes, see my other book "California Land Boundary Cases and Codes" for a compilation of all the California cites.
