The Uncertainties of the 'Unopened' Easement
February 25, 2005
Although New York courts have long-recognized that "an easement created by grant may be extinguished by adverse possession" (<i>See Harlem Commonwealth Council, Inc. v. Thomas Memorial Wesleyan Methodist Church</i>, 10 A.D.3d 572 (1st Dep't 2004); <i>Spiegel v. Ferraro</i>, 73 N.Y.2d 622, 625 (1989); <i>Gerbig v. Zumpano</i>, 7 N.Y.2d 327 (1960)), a different rule has been applied to "unopened" easements -- <i>ie</i>, easements that have been created by grant but have remained unused. Generally, a possession will not be deemed adverse to an unopened easement or right of way until three conditions have been satisfied. These conditions are: 1) the need by the easement holder for the right of way has arisen; 2) a demand has been made by the easement holder that the right of way be opened; and 3) the servient tenant (property owner) has refused the demand. <i>Castle Associates v. Schwartz</i>, 63 A.D.2d 481 (2d Dep't 1978).
