DEFINITION  AND ESSENTIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF EASEMENTS

An easement is a legal right to use or access someone else’s property for a specific purpose, without owning the property. It is a non-possessory interest in the land, which allows the holder of the easement to enjoy certain rights over the land of another. Easements are usually created by a written agreement, court order, or by continuous use over a long period of time. They can be used for a variety of purposes, such as access to a public road, the right to park, or to allow a utility company to access its equipment. Easements can be permanent or temporary, and they can be exclusive or non-exclusive, depending on the terms of the agreement.

3. It must be for a specific purpose: The easement must be created for a particular purpose, such as access to a public road or to allow a utility company to access its equipment.
4. It must be limited in scope: The easement cannot be so broad as to deprive the owner of the servient property of their full use and enjoyment of the land.
5. It must be created by a valid legal agreement: An easement must be created by a valid legal agreement, which can be in the form of a written contract, a court order, or by prescription (continuous use over a long period of time).
