Summary
The Idaho Supreme Court affirmed dismissal of HMI's trespass and nuisance claims, holding that the City possessed an express easement for the sewer line and a prescriptive easement for the disputed water line. The court concluded that the sewer easement's property description included the East Parcel and that the installed sewer line fixed the easement's location, while substantial and competent evidence supported the water easement's adverse use, duration, and location. The court also held that the district court was not required to describe the easements' physical parameters because the judgment did not establish the easements but merely rejected HMI's claims concerning them.
