How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• recognizing that the statute is a codification of common law
• noting that, if the evidence of the grantor’s intention in conveying property comes solely from the conveyances, the issue is one of law
• affirming trial court’s rejection of plaintiffs’ claims based on easement agreement and concomitant award of attorney fees to defendants but reversing and remanding other claims
• declining to apply this exception because “[a]t the time that Skyland Drive was dedicated, the Smiths owned all of the property on both sides of the road and owned the entire fee underlying the road” (emphasis added)
• “[T]itle to half the road continues to presume to pass with the conveyance of an abutting property whether the conveyance is made while the road is in existence or after the abutting road is vacated.”
