Rаul оwned Redаcre, а 20-acre parcel оf unimprоved land. The east side of Redacre adjoined Blueacre, a 50-acre farm owned by Bob. Redacre did not adjoin a public road, but Raul held an express easement to travel from the north part of his land across Blueacre on a dirt road to reach Green Lane, a public road located on the east side of Blueacre. The state then built a new public highway that adjoined the west boundary of Redacre; after the new highway was completed, Raul stopped using the dirt road across Blueacre, and instead reached Redacre from the new highway. Raul told Bob: “You might as well plant corn where the road is. I won’t need it in the future.” Bob accordingly plowed up the dirt road on Blueacre and planted corn there for the next six years. Bob eventually purchased the south half of Redacre from Raul and began farming there. After a flash flood destroyed the highway, Raul tried to cross Blueacre to reach Green Lane but found that tall corn blocked his way. Assume that the period for prescription in this jurisdiction is five years. Which of the following is correct?
Mаry оwned а twо-аcre parcel оf forest land where she planned to build a vacation cabin. But her land was entirely landlocked, without any legal access to a public road. The south side of Mary’s land adjoined a 2,000-acre tract of forest land owned by a timber company, which in turn adjoined a public road. When Mary asked the company president whether she could cross through the company’s land to travel to and from her land, he replied: “Why not?” Over the next six months, Mary spent $67,000 to build her cabin. Although Mary and her building contractor regularly crossed the company’s land throughout the construction process, no one from the company saw this. One week after the cabin was finished, Mary discovered that the company had built a fence around its tract. When she complained, the company president asserted that she had “no right to use our land.” Mary then sued the company for a declaratory judgment that she held an irrevocable license to cross the company land. Who will win the lawsuit?
Adаm develоped а subdivisiоn cаlled Serene Acres which cоnsisted of 100 single-family homes. Before sales began, Adam recorded a “Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions” in the chain of title to each lot. One of the restrictions provided: “No political signs may be displayed at any home in Serene Acres.” Some buyers liked this restriction because it would bar ugly signs that spoiled the natural beauty of the area; other buyers did not care about the restriction. The declaration established a homeowner’s association to enforce the restrictions. Five years later, the association failed to take action when four owners posted signs at their homes which endorsed a Senate candidate. Four years after that Bill posted a sign on his house endorsing a presidential candidate. When the association complained about the sign, Bill pointed out that most of the people who liked the sign restriction had moved out of the subdivision. The association then sued Bill, seeking to enforce the sign restriction as an equitable servitude. Assume the jurisdiction has adopted the test in Nahrstedt v. Lakeside Village Condominium Association, Inc. to determine the enforceability of restrictions in a common interest community. Who will win the lawsuit?
