The case centers on Dr. Daniel Kenigsberg, a physician who says his family has maintained ownership of a wooded parcel in Fairfield, Connecticut, for several decades, dating back to its original purchase in the early 1950s.
Nathaniel and Esther Kenigsberg, Kenigsberg’s parents, bought the land in 1953 for slightly more than $5,000, according to reports first published by The Washington Post and CT Insider. The family built a house on one part of the roughly one-acre property, leaving a separate, mostly undeveloped wooded area for future family use.
