What is the test for restarting an adverse possession period when a party has entered into a driveway without the consent of the occupier?

Nova Scotia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Roode v. Johnston, 2018 NSSC 293 (CanLII):

I find that, in the context of this case, entry with permission of the occupier would not restart the adverse possession period. In Henneberry v. Compton 2014 NSSC 298 adverse possession was found to a driveway where the respondents had used it by permission.
