- The DiStefanos discovered and informed Westminster Club that the pool’s fence was not the official property line (Vandemark and Lynch Survey) as had been mutually observed for almost fifty years.
- As a result, the few feet the DiStefanos had been maintaining since 1973 on their side of the fence actually belonged to them, as per the Delaware Code §10-7901, 7902 Adverse Possession.
- The DiStefanos wished to come to an agreement with Westminster Club and settle this property issue without resorting to litigation.
