“"[W]hen we review a trial court's finding based on evidence the trial court received ore tenus, we do not reweigh the evidence. Mollohan v. Jelley , 925 So.2d 207 , 210 (Ala. Civ. App. 2005) (' "Where a trial court receives ore tenus evidence, .... [t]his court is not permitted to reweigh the evidence on appeal and substitute its judgment for that of the trial court." ' (quoting Amaro v. Amaro , 843 So.2d 787 , 790-91 (Ala. Civ. App. 2002) ) ). If the trial court's finding regarding an adverse-possession issue or a boundary-line issue is based on evidence it received ore tenus, we must affirm that finding if it is supported by credible evidence. See Bohanon v. Edwards , [ 970 So.2d 777 (Ala. Civ. App. 2007) ] ; and Carr v. Rozelle , 521 So.2d 26 , 28 (Ala. 1988) (' "A judgment of the trial court establishing a boundary line between coterminous landowners need not be supported by a great preponderance of the evidence; the judgment should be affirmed if, under any reasonable aspect of the case, the decree is supported by credible evidence." Graham v. McKinney , 445 So.2d 892 , 894 (Ala. 1984).')."”
