<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:10.0pt">I don't see any issue with the lessees using the easement to access the property. I think the scope of the easement is the issue in this situation. What does the easement language say about the scope? Is
it for ingress, egress and regress? I have had a number of cases where the scope is only for coming and going (ingress and egress) - not for parking. By parking on the easement they are misusing the easement and it is considered a trespass.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">I have a PC that owns a parcel of land that includes an access easement for the benefit of an adjoining landowner. Adjoining landowner owns farmland and uses that easement to access
certain farm fields. The easement allows access from a main road, travels across PC’s parcel and ends at adjoining landowner’s farm fields.
