How have courts interpreted "implied" language in determining that a plaintiff is entitled to an easement?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Miller v. Cabrera, E075257 (Cal. App. 2021):

[6] Appellants assert that the trial court "impliedly" found that they were entitled to the easement. They cite Connolly v. Trabue (2012) 204 Cal.App.4th 1154, which held that the trial court made such an implied finding because it referred to "the [plaintiffs'] easement" and found that the plaintiffs had "continuously and openly used" the claimed easement for 15 years. (Id. at pp. 1161-1162.) The trial court here used no such language and made no such finding.

[7] We do not distinguish between van't Rood and his predecessor in interest (see van't Rood v. County of Santa Clara, supra, 113 Cal.App.4th at p. 557), because the distinction is irrelevant to our discussion.
