[WSBARP] Easement to General Public

[Tom J. Westbrook]

Seems like anyone with fee simple title can convey any interest they
want to convey - question I would look at is whether grantor had rights
to convey the general public since it was by Quit Claim Deed; can only
convey rights they have. Other issue I would look at is whether there
are any prior CC&Rs that might affect the property or the easement
conveyance............both are long shots.

 

Sincerely,

 

Tom

Subject: [WSBARP] Easement to General Public

 

 

 

I have been asked to file a quiet title action to clear title issues.
One of the issues concerns an easement granted within a quit claim deed
which provides:

                An easement for ingress and egress over and across
(legal description). "For the use of the general public."

 

Has anyone had the occasion to deal with such an easement?
