Facts
Gary and Peggy (P) own an undivided 1/8 interest in land. Charles and Mary (D) owned a life estate in the undivided 7/8ths for their joint lives and the remainder went to P. D improved a portion of the property and developed a four-lot mobile home park. Eight years later P moved onto the lots and did not pay rent. P also did not expend any money the prior eight years for the improvement and maintenance of the lots. In 1990, P filed an action for an accounting for their 1/8th portion of the rent received by D from the lots. The accounting was granted, but the trial judge required P's to pay reasonable rent. P's appealed.
