In an action to quiet title to a painting based on plaintiff's ownership by acquisitive prescription under Louisiana law and the fact that defendant's claims were barred by Louisiana's prescriptive laws, summary judgment for plaintiff is affirmed where: 1) there was no basis to lay out any federal common law to replace Louisiana's prescriptive periods; and 2) the court disagreed that the Terezin Declaration should preempt the Louisiana prescriptive periods.
