Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is known as prescription, where the person acquires the right to cross the property through prolonged use with the owner's permission. This is different from adverse possession, which involves taking possession of someone else's property without permission and claiming ownership. Profit à prendre refers to a right to take something from someone else's land, while a dominant tenement is a property that benefits from an easement or right of way. An estate in land refers to ownership or possession of property.
