A landowner holds an appurtenant easement over an adjacent parcel.
If the landowner purchases the burdened adjacent parcel in its entirety and combines both lots under a single deed, what is the legal status of the easement?
- The easement remains in effect as a recorded encumbrance on the servient portion.
- The easement is terminated by merger of the dominant and servient estates.
- The easement is automatically converted into an easement in gross for the benefit of the owner.
- The easement is suspended until the parcels are sold separately again.
