Wellington Condo. Ass'n v. Wellington Cove Condo. Ass'n
Annotate this CaseAt issue in this case was two properties consisting of neighboring condominiums. In 2005, Defendants placed barriers in Plaintiffs' claimed right of way, which impeded vehicle access and foot traffic. After Defendants refused to remove the barrier, Plaintiffs sued Defendants, alleging that, according to a condominium declaration, Plaintiffs had an express easement over the right of way, or, in the alternative, they had an implied or prescriptive easement over the right of way. After a trial, the trial justice ruled in favor of Defendants. The Supreme Court (1) vacated the judgment of the superior court with respect to its determination that Defendants did not have a claim of an implied easement by reservation over the right of way, as the trial justice did not make any findings or legal conclusions with respect to whether Plaintiffs had an implied easement by grant over the claimed right of way; and (2) affirmed in all other respects. Remanded.
