Roger Lewis, Respondent v. Neda Young, Appellant

Summary

The New York Court of Appeals held that a landowner may relocate an easement right of way without the easement holder’s consent so long as the easement holder’s right of ingress and egress is not impaired, and reversed the Appellate Division’s summary‑judgment ruling that the easement’s location was fixed by long use. The matter was remanded for further factual determination.
