US Court Orders Resident to Vacate 30-Acre Property Owned by Gandhi's Grandson's Trust
A US court ruled in favor of a charitable trust established by Mahatma Gandhi's grandson Kanu Gandhi and his wife Shiva, ordering a Virginia resident to vacate a 30-acre property after a 20-month legal dispute. The resident, Gregory Black, claimed ownership under Virginia's adverse possession law, citing occupation since 2008 and improvements on the land. The trust, managed by Parimal Desai, challenged the claim using AI, GIS maps, and legal arguments, with the court finding Black did not meet all legal requirements for ownership.
