Problem 1: Smith owned a two-acre parcel of real estate, on which was located a tavern. Jones, Smith's neighbor to the east, owned an easement to use Smith's driveway to gain access to a farm that Jones owned to the west of Smith's property. Smith's customers now park their cars on the driveway at night and Jones, who is disturbed by the lights and noise of the cars, sues Smith claiming that the customers cannot use the easement. Is Jones correct? Why?
Problem 2: A utility company offered a farmer $25,000 for an easement to construct power lines over his property. The farmer refused the money on the grounds that "money is the root of all evil" but was willing to grant an easement to the power company. How would you describe the easement? May the company sell the easement?
