Jim has come for advice about easement and he wants to exclude Jesse’s clients from the car park. The fact suggests that the easement was created by the previous owner and registered under Torrens.

Conservation easements give the farmer monetary compensation in exchange for restricting future land development of his property; this program is based on the idea that a land owner has a number of rights to that land, one of them being the choice of how to use that land. Once a land trust organization purchases the agricultural conservation easement of a piece of property, that organization
Property rights in water have similar challenges. Like the wild animals, the pool water that is adjacent to two property owners can be movable. Similarly, there is also the groundwater that lies beneath the surface. “Groundwater is water located beneath the ground surface in soil pore and fracture of rock formations” (The Economist). The water under the private land belongs to the owner of the surface unless the land is owned under split state. The surface owner has the right to extract and
states farmland. The first alternative is a fresh new approach. The layouts of these new communities are all designed from the inside out with a main attraction in the center of the neighborhoods. The second option will be aimed at conservation easements. This is legal agreement a property owner makes to regulate the type and extent of development allowed on the property (Harrison & Richardson Jr., 2000).

Topic: Summary of Servitudes ? Easements, Real Covenants, Equitable Servitudes I. Easement A. Prescriptive Easement: Property interest acquired through a party?s unauthorized use of another?s real property for a certain period.

This test acknowledged that the right to park could exist an easement provided that it would not ‘leave the servient

If there are two properties that share a common driveway, but the driveway is owned by one of the property owners, that property owner can grant the other an easement to allow that person access
