Description
Plaintiff appellants Ropers bring this appeal from a summary judgment entered in favor of defendant respondent Elkhorn at Sun Valley upon plaintiffs' claim that Elkhorn breached a deed warranty against encumbrances in a conveyance of a building site to the Ropers. The Ropers also appeal from an award of attorney fees made by the district court to Elkhorn. We affirm. Plaintiff appellants Ropers, husband and wife, purchased a building lot located on the south rim of the Snake River canyon near Twin Falls in May 1976, from defendant respondent Elkhorn at Sun Valley. The Ropers began construction of a home on the lot in the summer of 1976. After construction began, the Twin Falls Highway District asserted a claim to a fifty-foot easement across the Ropers' building lot to the canyon rim. The claimed easement was centered along a section line located near the center of the Ropers' lot and passed through that part of the lot upon which the Ropers had begun construction of a home. In order to settle the highway district's claim of an easement and continue construction of their new home, the Ropers conveyed to the Twin Falls Highway District a right of way of identical size on the eastern border of their lot in exchange for a quitclaim of the district's claimed easement through the middle of the property.
