    I entered this thread thinking it would be about squatting. E.g. bank forecloses on a house, kicks out the previous owner, then the bank becomes insolvent itself and bought out by another bank. The new bank loses track of the property. “Shoplifter” moves in, lives there X number of years. Documents their conquest. Then files a paper for ~$50 or so claiming ownership under adverse property rights.

    This exact thing happened in Florida. A black guy squatted in a house. White neighbors were furious that they had to pay ~¼—½ million for their homes that the squatter paid ~$50 for.
