Real Property • Easements
PROP#118
Legal Definition
An easement may, itself, specify how it terminates via its own terms and conditions.
Plain English Explanation
Easements need not be perpetual and infinite. Some easements include self-destruct terms that terminate the easement after a period of time or some circumstance is met. These are easy to spot on exams, which means they aren't as commonly tested. Why? Because they'd need to not only explicitly state the terms that self-terminate the easement, but then restate them in the fact pattern so you know if they happened.
