This section contains the nature of the case and procedural background.

Land was subject to an Asotin County (P) tax foreclosure proceeding. Following the conclusion of those proceedings and the issuance of deeds, P brought an action to quiet title to the property as described on page 868 Rabin 4th. The Lewiston Clarkston Improvement Company was not specifically named as a party defendant, but P put a catch-all clause in its complaint. The quiet title action proceeded to judgment and P got what it wanted. In 1940, Lewiston conveyed real estate in Asotin County to Clarkston Community Corp. (D). The deeds contained the same description as the certificate of tax delinquency and tax foreclosure summons. From 1940 until the present action, D has been in possession of the disputed land and even paid taxes thereon. The trial court found in favor of D and P appealed.
