Lack of purpose in easement termination refers to what?

• A. The holder no longer has need for it.
• B. The property owner refuses the easement
• C. The easement is used for too long
• D. The easement is reserved for another use

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is that an easement ends when its purpose no longer exists. If the holder has no need for the easement anymore, the reason for granting or maintaining that servitude disappears, so termination is appropriate. This choice directly captures that lack of ongoing need.

Think of it like this: an easement gives someone a specific right to use another's land. If the situation that required that right changes—like a road being rerouted or a neighboring access need disappearing—the reason for the easement vanishes, so it can terminate. The other options don’t fit that core idea. A property owner’s refusal doesn’t automatically terminate an easement, and simply using the easement for a long time or having it reserved for another use doesn’t necessarily reflect that the purpose itself has ceased.
