MICKEY LONG and CORA LONG v. R. SUSAN WOODS.

The plaintiff Mickey Long filed his verified complaint on January 5, 2012, naming as defendant R. Susan Woods. Ms. Woods filed her answer on March 2, 2010. The case management conference was held on May 3, 2010. After the retirement of the Hon. Charles W. Trombly, Jr., this case was reassigned to the Hon. Robert B. Foster on January 26, 2012. The plaintiff’s motion to amend the complaint was allowed on April 10, 2012, and the Plaintiffs’ First Amended Complaint (complaint), naming Mickey Long and Cora Long (the Longs) as plaintiffs, was filed on April 11, 2012. Ms. Woods filed her answer to the complaint on April 23, 2012. The complaint asserts the following claims: Count I, Declaratory Judgment; Count II, Equitable Relief; Count III, Quiet Title and Remove Cloud on Title; Count IV, Petition to Establish Title; Count V, Easement (Alternative Theory); and Count VI, Trespass.
