George Lucas Sues San Anselmo and His Neighbors Over San Anselmo Real Estate
In this brief YouTube monologue, Austin Klar reports that filmmaker George Lucas has filed a lawsuit against the town of San Anselmo, California, to assert ownership of a strip of land he has been using as a driveway. Lucas believed the driveway was part of his property, but a recent survey shows it is not, and he suspects that one or more neighbors may have previously held an interest in the land. To claim the parcel despite the title not being in his name, Lucas is invoking the doctrine of adverse possession, arguing that his open, continuous, and exclusive use of the driveway for many years gives him a legal right to it. Klar notes that this is not Lucas’s first such action; public records indicate Lucas owns at least 24 parcels in San Anselmo valued at over $40 million. The video ends with a call for viewers to follow for more Bay Area real‑estate drama.
