    I have a morbid curiosity for USA/California property law, but is this the sort of thing that a quiet title action might be able to clarify? Or would that open an invitation for multiple, competing claims to come out of the woodwork? Insofar as real property, surely somebody has been paying the property tax?

      I can’t go into detail, but I work in a municipal jurisdiction with unique circumstances. It’s a bit of an enclave for the super-wealthy and sir to media/security concerns, I have to be a huge PITA about paperwork establishing who can access and work on properties.

      There are fairly unassuming properties in town that will get you tackled or shot if you don’t follow the proper procedures.
