That's why we have courts. If your space was properly deeded then I suspect
you won. I never said you would not have to act to protect your property
rights and a deed is certainly no guarantee that some people won't be
vindictive when they force you to do so.

Did you win?
Is your space identified by more than a number in your deed?
Is a recorded site plan referenced in your deed?
