Description
Phillip Cordova and his wife, Cordy Cordova, brought suit against all possible claimants to quiet title to 126.562 acres in Taos County. The trial court quieted title in the Cordovas, and an intervening land grant organization, the Arroyo Hondo Arriba Community Land Grant Association, appealed. The Court of Appeals reversed the trial court finding standing in the association, ordered that the Cordovas petition be dismissed, and awarded costs of the appeal to the association, holding the Cordovas had shown insufficient color of title to prove title to the land. We issued a writ of certiorari to the Court of Appeals. We reverse the Court of Appeals opinion on the standing issue and reinstate the Cordovas quiet title decree.
