Real Property Law

EASEMENT WHICH ALLOWED ACCESS TO A GARAGE AND WOODSHED WAS EXTINGUISHED, GARAGE AND WOODSHED NO LONGER EXISTED AND HAD NOT EXISTED FOR 50 YEARS (THIRD DEPT).

The Third Department determined an easement which originally allowed access to a garage and woodshed had been extinguished because the garage and woodshed longer existed, and had not existed for some 50 years:

​

An easement appurtenant, such as the one at issue on this appeal, is created through a written conveyance, subscribed by the grantors, that burdens the servient estate for the benefit of the dominant estate … . An easement expressly created for, or limited to, a specific purpose may be extinguished by the abandonment of that purpose … , which must be demonstrated through “unequivocal” acts establishing that the owner of the dominant estate intended to “permanently relinquish all rights to the easement” … . In determining the nature and extent of an express easement, the easement must be construed “to give effect to the [conveyors’] intent, as manifested by the language of the grant” … . Stone v Donlon, 2017 NY Slip Op 09225, Third Dept 12-28-17
