Easement by Necessity and Timing of Severance
Synthèse Legislator
Généré par l'IAThe case concerns the proper construction and application of a statute addressing the unauthorized exercise of a right of way, where a party claimed an implied easement by necessity over the adjacent property for ingress and egress to their landlocked parcel, relying on the historical division of a larger tract. The court reasoned that an easement by necessity requires the necessity to exist at the time of the severance of the dominant and servient estates; since the claimant's parcel had an existing, though inconvenient, access route at the time of the original conveyance that would have been available but for subsequent acts of the claimant's predecessors, the strict necessity required for an implied easement was not met, thus denying the claimed right of way.
