James O'Neal Vineyard, et ux. v. Walker Betty, et ux.

Following a bench trial, the trial court found sufficient evidence to show the existence of a prescriptive easement across the property of the defendants in favor of the plaintiffs. Defendants appeal, arguing that clear and convincing evidence did not exist to support the trial court's finding and that at trial plaintiff did not submit proof of irreparable harm necessary to secure injunctive relief. Appellant failed to submit a transcript of the trial court proceedings or a statement of the evidence to the appellate court leaving this court only the technical record for consideration on appeal. In the absence of a transcript or statement of the evidence, this court must presume the evidence supported the trial court's findings. Therefore, we affirm the decision of the trial court.
