Question

River Real Estate Tycoons just purchased an office property next to the Wafflesnake Bayou. Because the office property lacked sufficient parking, they contacted the Bayou Burger Joint next door who agreed to an easement allowing them use of seven parking spaces. Unfortunately, two years later a devastating flood swept away the Bayou Burger Joint and its parking lot. Which of the following best describes the situation?

A. The River Real Estate Tycoons agreement will automatically be renewed IF the parking lot is rebuilt.
B. The River Real Estate Tycoons dominant tenement was destroyed with the Bayou Burger Joint.
C. The Bayou Burger Joint's dominant estate was destroyed with the Bayou Burger Joint.
D. The River Real Estate Tycoons servient tenement was destroyed with the Bayou Burger Joint.

Answer 1

The answer is option D. The River Real Estate Tycoons servient tenement was destroyed with the Bayou Burger Joint.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best description of the situation is option D. The River Real Estate Tycoons servient tenement was destroyed with the Bayou Burger Joint. In this scenario, the River Real Estate Tycoons had an easement agreement with the Bayou Burger Joint, allowing them to use seven parking spaces.

However, when the Bayou Burger Joint and its parking lot were destroyed by a flood, the easement was also destroyed because it was tied to the existence of the Burger Joint. Therefore, the River Real Estate Tycoons no longer have the right to use the parking spaces.
