Real Property - As enacted, enacts anti-squatter laws. - Amends TCA Title 29 and Title 66.
This bill amends Tennessee laws regarding real property to clarify when anti-squatter rules apply. It specifically states that these rules do not apply to future property interests if their validity was already settled by a court order or agreement before July 1, 2015. The change ensures that disputes over property rights resolved prior to that date are not reopened under new anti-squatter statutes.
