Quasi-easement
Last modified: Thu Feb 23 16:37:37 2006
An Easement is a right that the owner of an interest in one piece of land (see InterestInLand)
enjoys over the land of another. As a matter of definition, no easement can exist where both interests
are owned by the same person. A quasi-easement arises when an easement would patently exist,
but for the fact that there is common ownership. Quasi-easements are important because under
the rule in WheeldonVBurrows1879 they are capable of conversion into real easements when the
benefited land is sold.
