Thanks, that came in handy today. I just need to keep remembering to include
anti-merger and subsequent conveyance language.

Read the Coast Storage and  Beebe v. Swerda cases.  They  will give you a
flavor for the issues that arise when granting an easement to yourself.

Ok, so client wants an easement over a portion of the property he wants to
sell.  Has an LLC so, in theory, one can grant the easement over that area
to the LLC as he wants in done in a separate document prior to sale not a
reservation in the deed. 

 

The issue is that it is an easement in gross by definition since there will
not be an appurtenant property but rather just an area of the land he still
wants to access and, essentially, maintain control over.  Going back on my
ancient memory of property law, easements in gross were personal,
non-assignable, etc.  Does this change with an LLC?  I mean, in theory, an
LLC can have perpetual duration and change members etc.  Its not completely
relevant to what client is trying to do and I do not believe he intends to
assign it or leave it in his will in any event but I do wonder if somehow it
could make the easement grant fail if that makes any sense.  I know of
course that Cell Towers and Pipelines all have easements in gross,
technically, but am thinking that there must be a specific law/regulation
that gets them around the typical pitfalls of an easement in gross.  Any
easement experts out there have a moment to chat this week?

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Richard Holland
