Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An easement is a non-possessory right to use someone else's land for a specific purpose, and a profit is a non-possessory right to take resources from someone else's land. Both of these do not give Gail or Hayden the right to possess the property. The owner of the property, Ed, retains the right to possess and control the property even with the presence of easements and profits.
