Q. A is the owner of a parcel of land adjoining a river. There is an accretion formed through the natural current of the river. In 1980, his neighbor took possession of the accretion. In 2011, B filed an application for registration. Will the petition prosper? (Solved)

1. No, because A is the owner being the owner the land to which the accretion is attached;

2. No, because the accretion is a public land;

3. Yes, having acquired it by prescription after 30 years of possession even in bad faith and without title;

4. No, because the title of A is imprescriptible, the accretion being covered by the phrase “more of less.”
