BAILEY V. EWING
105 Idaho 636 (1983)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was a boundary dispute between adjacent landowners.
FACTS: A personal representative of a decedent conducted an auction of the estate. At
that auction certain property that was owned was divided and was to be sold at auction.
Prior to and at the auction it was indicated that no one was sure of the actual boundary
between the two lots. Ewing (D) purchased his lot that day and Bailey (P) who was at the
auction purchased his a week later. Lot five was deeded to D and lot six and the strip of
land in dispute was deeded to P. Bailey eventually discovered where the true line was after
taking a survey. P sued D over a disputed strip of land to quiet title. D countered with a
complaint to reform the deeds. The trial court found that D had made a unilateral mistake as
to the location of the boundary and was not entitled to relief. The trial court found for P
and D appealed.
