Parties-in-Interest

On September 9- 11, 2013, this matter was tried to the Court on Plaintiff's Complaint

and Defendants' Counterclaim. The central issue generated by the complaint and counterclaim is

1

On October 1, 2013, after a bench trial, the Court issued its Decision and Judgment in this matter. In the

Decision and Judgment, in determining that Defendants had an easement over Plaintiff's property, the

Court declined to address all but one of the theories by which Defendants maintained the existence of an

easement. Plaintiff subsequently filed post-trial motions, which motions raised certain substantive and

procedural issues. On October 8, 2013, the Court conducted a telephonic conference with counsel to

discuss with the parties some of the issues raised in the motions and the future course of the case. One of

the issues raised by the motions and during the conference was the possibility that this Court would not be

available to address any post-judgment issues that might be generated in the event of an appeal and

subsequent remand. Citing the interests of judicial economy, the parties requested that the Court address

all of Defendants' theories and any related legal defenses. The Court agrees that judicial economy

militates in favor of the Court addressing some of the other issues in the case. The Court, therefore,

issues this Final Decision and Judgment, which shall supersede and not be in addition to the October 1,

2013, Decision and Judgment.

1

whether Defendants' property benefits from an easement over Plaintiff's property in Bar Harbor,

Maine.2 After consideration of the evidence, the Court makes the following findings:

FINDINGS OF FACT 3

1. Plaintiff owns certain real property locat~d on the westerly side of Main Street in Bar

Harbor, Maine, which consists of several contiguous lots (the Testa property).

2. Defendants Coopersmith also own certain property on Main Street in Bar Harbor,

Maine, which property they acquired by deed dated November 1, 2005 (the Coopersmith

property). Defendants Tourmaline King, LLC, and Tourmaline Queen, LLC, (Defendants

Tourmaline), which are now owned by Defendants Coopersmith, own certain property on Main

Street in Bar Harbor, Maine, which property is described in a deed dated December 24,2012 (the

Tourmaline property).

3. The Coopersmith property and the Tourmaline property include retail businesses with

space for parking immediately behind the building.

4. The deed to the prior owners of the Tourmaline property included a right of way over

adjoining property, at least a portion of which is now the Testa property, to permit access to the

rear of the Tourmaline property. The Coopersmiths' deed also includes a grant of a right of way.

5. The Coopersmith property consists of the consolidation of two lots. One of the

historical lots is located along the westerly side of Main Street. Lot two abuts lot one to the

west. The right of way in the Coopersmith deed describes a right over Lot two for the benefit of

Lot one.

2

Plaintiff had filed, but withdrew prior to trial, a claim for damages.

3

The Court will set forth some of the basic facts established at trial. The enumerated facts are not, however, an

exhaustive list of all of the Court's factual findings. As part of the Court's analysis in the Discussion section that

follows, the Court makes additional findings.

2

6. For many years, beginning in the 1950's and through and including the mid-1970's,

the Coopersmiths' predecessors-in-title accessed the rear of their property over the Testa

property for business deliveries and other purposes.

7. In the 1970's, Plaintiff's predecessor-in-title developed plans to expand the parking

area behind the Testa property and the Coopersmith property. The expansion included the

construction of a concrete wall that would prevent the owners of the Coopersmith property from

accessing the rear of their property in the manner they were accustomed.

8. Philip and Nathan Sanborn were the owners of the Coopersmith property at the time

of the proposed construction of the concrete wall. In the 1970's, Catherine Riccardo was the

record owner of the Tourmaline property, which abutted the Coopersmith property along Main

Street. Ms. Riccardo's daughter, Joan Purcell, operated a retail business out of the building on

the Tourmaline property.

9. Soon after learning of the proposed construction of the concrete wall, Philip and

Nathan Sanborn, together with Joan Purcell and Catherine Riccardo, commenced a lawsuit on

September 9, 1977, in Hancock County Superior Court against Joseph and Michael Testa, the

then owners of the Testa property, in an effort to prevent the construction of the concrete wall

(the Lawsuit). They alleged that the construction would interfere with their rights of way, and

their ability to access the rear of their property as they and their predecessors had done

historically. On September 29, 1977, the court entered a temporary restraining order prohibiting

the defendants in the case (the Testas) from interfering with the access of the plaintiffs (in the

Lawsuit) to their property.

10. During the course of the Lawsuit, through their attorneys, the Sanborns and Riccardo

negotiated an agreement with Joseph and Michael Testa, Jr., (through their attorneys), by which

3

agreement the Sanborns and Riccardo would be able to continue to access the rear of their

properties over a portion of the Testa property.

11. Joseph Testa, Michael Testa, Jr., Philip Sanborn, and Nathan Sanborn signed the

agreement in June 1978. Other than the dismissal of the case in October 1980, the Hancock

County Superior Court's record does not reflect any court activity after the execution of the

agreement by the Sanborns and the Testas. Catherine Riccardo did not sign the agreement. Ms.

Riccardo's failure to sign the agreement was not the result of any objection that she had to the

terms of the agreement. Given that the parties undertook no further action regarding the lawsuit

after June 1978, and given that after June 1978, Ms. Purcell, Ms. Riccardo's daughter and the

occupant of the parcel owned by Ms. Riccardo, accessed the rear of the Tourmaline property

over the Testa property in accordance with the agreement without any objection from Joseph and

Michael Testa, all parties to the Lawsuit, including Ms. Riccardo, assented to the terms of the

June 1978 agreement.

12. The Hancock County Superior Court dismissed the lawsuit on October 15, 1980,

pursuant to M.R. Civ. P. 41(b) for failure to prosecute the Lawsuit.

13. After the execution of the agreement in 1978, the Sanborns and Ms. Purcell accessed

the rear of their properties over the Testa property in a manner consistent with the parties' June

1978 agreement.

14. In or about 2010, the Town of Bar Harbor passed an ordinance that eliminated the

need for businesses to have a minimum amount of parking space available for customers. This

change made the parking area behind the Coopersmith property and the Tourmaline property

available for potential development.

4

15. From time to time after their purchase of the Coopersmith property, Defendants'

ability to access their property from the rear of the building has been hindered.

DISCUSSION

In this action, both parties request that the Court enter a declaratory judgment regarding

Defendants' assertion of an easement over Plaintiff's property for the benefit of the Coopersmith

property and the Tourmaline property. Defendants also seek to recover damages for Plaintiff's

alleged nuisance and unreasonable interference with Plaintiff's easement rights. The Court will

first address the parties' request for declaratory judgment.

At trial, both parties presented evidence regarding the right of way or easement language

In the chain of title to the Coopersmith property and the Tourmaline/Purcell properties.

Defendants also maintain that the deeds to the Coopersmith and Tourmaline/Purcell properties

contain express easements, which granted rights of way over the Testa property. In addition, the

parties submitted evidence as to the historical use of the parking area behind the Coopersmith

and Tourmaline/Purcell properties. Through the historical evidence, Defendants attempt to

establish the existence of a prescriptive easement and an implied easement over the Testa

property.

A. The June 1978 Agreement

Defendants' predecessors-in-title commenced the Lawsuit as the result of the efforts of

Plaintiff's predecessors-in-title to construct a concrete wall that would prevent Defendants'

predecessors-in-title from accessing their property over the Testa property. In the Lawsuit,

Defendants, Ms. Riccardo and Ms. Purcell maintained that they had a legal right to cross the

Testa property to access Defendants' property. The evidence and common sense establish that

5

the parties negotiated a resolution of the Lawsuit through an agreement that would allow

Plaintiff's predecessor-in-title to complete construction of the parking lot, including the proposed

concrete wall, and which agreement would also allow Defendants' predecessor-in-title to

continue to have access to the rear of their properties. Indeed, Plaintiffs have offered no logical

explanation for the failure of the plaintiffs in' the Lawsuit to continue prosecuting the Lawsuit

without confirming their ability to continue to gain access to their properties as they had prior to

the proposed construction of the wall. Consistent with this conclusion, the Court record contains

no reference to any substantive action in the case after the Testas and Sanborns signed the

agreement in June 1978. Given that the parties' reached a resolution of the access issues to

resolve the Lawsuit, the parties' failure to object to the dismissal of the action pursuant to M.R.

Civ. P. 41(b) is not surprising.

Despite the fact that Plaintiffs' predecessors-in-title signed the June 1978 agreement that

ended the lawsuit, Plaintiffs contend that the agreement is not valid because Catherine Riccardo

did not sign the agreement. First, Ms. Riccardo's signature was not necessary to establish an

enforceable agreement between the Testas and the Sanborns. In other words, the Testas and the

Sanborns are the only necessary parties to establish an easement over the Testa property for the

benefit of the Coopersmith property. Thus, all parties necessary to establish an easement over

the Testa property for the benefit of the Coopersmith property signed the agreement.4

Furthermore, if Ms. Riccardo's assent to the agreement is necessary, the Defendants have

established that she consented to the terms of the agreement. In essence, Plaintiff argues that

even though its predecessors-in-title, Joseph Testa and Michael Testa, Jr., negotiated and signed

the agreement, acted in accordance with and abided by the terms of the agreement, the Court

4

Insofar as Defendants Coopersmith now own both the Coopersmith and Tourmaline properties, a right of way over

the Testa property for the benefit of the Coopersmith property effectively would allow Defendants Coopersmith to

access both properties.

6

should invalidate the agreement because Ms. Riccardo did not sign and thereby did not consent

to the terms of the agreement.

The absence of Ms. Riccardo's signature on the agreement is not the result of her

objection to any of the terms of the agreement. In fact, there is no evidence that Ms. Riccardo

expressed to any person that she had any concerns about the terms of the agreement.

The evidence in fact demonstrates that Ms. Riccardo consented to and, through her

daughter (Joan Purcell) who occupied the property and was a party to the Lawsuit, endorsed and

acted in accordance with the terms of the agreement. Ms. Riccardo was an owner of the property

in name only. Ms. Riccardo's daughter, Joan Purcell, transferred the property to Ms. Riccardo as

part of her effort to protect the asset should her husband incur any future liability .5 Ms. Purcell,

who occupied the Tourmaline property at all pertinent times, testified that she understood that

the parties ended the lawsuit with an agreement that permitted her to access the rear of the

property from Main Street over the Testa property. Ms. Purcell continued to operate a business

out of the property until she sold the property to Defendants Coopersmith in 2012. While

occupying the Tourmaline property, in accordance with the terms of the June 1978 agreement,

Ms. Purcell continuously accessed the rear of the property from Main Street over the Testa

property. Simply stated, Plaintiff's contention that the agreement is invalid because Ms.

Riccardo did not assent to the terms of the agreement is not supported by competent, reliable

evidence.

As mentioned above, Defendants also argued that they have an express easement by

virtue of the language in the deeds to the Coopersmith and Tourmaline properties. The express

5

Ms. Purcell testified that after her husband had been involved in a motor vehicle accident, she became concerned

that if her husband were involved in a future accident in which a person was injured, the property could be at risk.

She testified, therefore, that she transferred the property to her mother to avoid exposure for any claims that might

arise as the result of her husband's future conduct.

7

easement language in the deeds does not grant to Defendants access to the rear of their properties

from Main Street over the Testa property. At most, the deeds contain easements that grant

access over the Testa property from the rear of the properties. While the Court cannot conclude

that the express language in the deeds is controlling, the inclusion of the easement language in

the deeds further convinces that Court that the parties reached a binding agreement by which

Defendants' predecessors-in-title could continue to access their property. In the Court's view,

the deed language, as well as use consistent with the existence of the easement, provided

Defendants' predecessors-in-title with a compelling argument in support of their request for

injunctive relief in the Lawsuit. Plaintiff's predecessor-in-title faced the possibility that the

Lawsuit could end with an injunction prohibiting the expansion of the parking area. A

reasonable person in the position of Plaintiffs' predecessors-in-title would recognize that risk,

and seek to resolve the Lawsuit in a way that permitted expansion of the parking area and

construction of the concrete wall. 6

Plaintiff also argues that because Ms. Riccardo did not sign the agreement, the statute of

frauds bars enforcement of the agreement. 33 M.R.S. § 51(4) (2012) provides in pertinent part

that "No action shall be maintained in any of the following cases ... [u]pon any contract for the

sale of lands, tenements or hereditaments, or of any interest in or concerning them ... unless the

promise, contract or agreement on which such action is brought, or some memorandum or note

thereof, is in writing and signed by the party to be charged therewith ... "

6

Plaintiff has argued that Defendants' predecessors-in-title abandoned any express easement through non-use. The

"non-use" occurred following execution of the June 1978 agreement. The construction of the concrete wall rendered

use of the easement impossible. Defendants, therefore, did not abandon the easement. Instead, the parties simply

agreed to relocate the easement, which is permissible. See Davis v. Bruk, 411 A.2d 660 (Me. 1980) (easement can

be relocated by mutual consent of the owners of the dominant and servient estates).

8

Plaintiff's statute of frauds argument is essentially a reiteration of its contention that the

agreement is invalid because Ms. Riccardo did not sign the agreement. Contrary to Plaintiff's

argument, there is an agreement signed by "the party charge therewith ... " That is, the owners of

the property to be burdened by the right of way (i.e., Michael and Joseph Testa) signed the

agreement and agreed to bound by its terms. Plaintiff's statute of frauds issue fails for that

reason.

Furthermore, the purpose of the statute of frauds is not to invalidate meritorious claims.

Rather, "[t]he purpose of the statute of frauds is to prevent actions based on false claims."

Brown Development Corp. v. Hemond, 2008 ME 146, ~ 11, 956 A. 2d 104, 108 (citing, Wells

Fargo Horne Mortgage, Inc., v. Spaulding, 2007 ME 116, ~ 20,930 A.2d 1025, 1030; Dehahn v.

Innes, 356 A.2d 711,717 (Me. 1976)). The law recognizes that the statute of frauds should not

be a shield for a party to avoid a clear obligation to which the party plainly consented, and for

which the party received valuable consideration.7 In this case, despite the existence of a writing

signed by its predecessor-in-title, Plaintiff attempts to void Defendants' right of access, for

which right Plaintiff's predecessor-in-title received valuable consideration (i.e., the end of the

Lawsuit which permitted the expansion of the parking lot and the construction of the concrete

wall). As explained above, the lack of Ms. Riccardo's signature does not inv'alidate the

agreement. In short, the agreement satisfies the writing requirement of the statute of frauds.

("almost any writing is sufficient for statute of frauds purposes" Brown Development Corp.,

2008 ME 146, ~ 12).

7

In Chapman v. Bowman, 381 A.2d 1123,1128 (Me. 1978), the Law Court, in adopting and applying the "broad

formulation of the doctrine of promissory estoppel set forth in the .... Restatement (Second) of Contracts," observed,

"since it is the purpose of the Statute of Frauds to prevent fraud, that Statute cannot be permitted to be itself an

instrument of fraud."

9

Plaintiff has asserted that if the June 1978 agreement is valid, it only conveyed a personal

license to the Sanborns. In other words, Plaintiff contends that the interest did not run with the

land and, therefore, Defendants are not the beneficiaries of the right of way. "The construction

of language creating an easement is a question of law." Anchors v. Manter, 1998 ME 152, ~ 16,

714 A.2d 134, 138 (citing, Fine Line, Inc. v. Blake, 677 A.2d 1061, 1063 (Me. 1996)). 8 The

legal question is whether in the Court's view, Defendants obtained an appurtenant easement over

the Testa property or whether their predecessors merely obtained an easement personal to the

grantees.9

"The traditional rules of construction for grants or reservations of easements require that

whenever possible an easement be fairly construed to be appurtenant to the land of the person for

whose use the easement is created." Anchors v. Manter, 1998 ME 152, ~ 10, 714 A.2d 134, 138

(quoting, LeMay v. Anderson, 397 A.2d 984, 987 (Me. 1979)). Not insignificantly, the expert

witnesses for both the Plaintiff and Defendants opined that if valid, the agreement conveyed an

appurtenant easement. The indicia of an appurtenant easement are clearly present in the

agreement. Perhaps most importantly, use of the right of way as expressed in the agreement is

not limited to a specific person or persons, which is an essential distinguishing feature between

8

Plaintiff argued that the agreement could be read to convey a license, and, therefore, the agreement was ambiguous

and Plaintiff should be able to present the testimony of the Testas' counsel as to his intent when drafting the

agreement. Given that the expert witnesses for the Plaintiff and Defendants agreed that the agreement conveyed an

appurtenant easement, and given the plain language of the agreement, the Court determined, contrary to Plaintiff's

argument, that the agreement was not ambiguous. In addition, the Court was not convinced that the intent of the

Testas' counsel in drafting the agreement was relevant. The Court, therefore, excluded the testimony of Testas'

counsel.

9 "The law recognizes two different types of easements or rights of use over the property of another: easements

appurtenant and easements in gross. Grantors create easements appurtenant to benefit a dominant estate and such

easements run with the land. To be appurtenant, the easement must be attached or related to a dominant estate. In

contrast, easements in gross are personal interests in land or the right to use another's land. They are not appurtenant

to any estate in land and do not belong to any person by virtue of his ownership of an estate in other land. An

easement in gross is generally not assignable and terminates upon the death of the grantee." Wentworth v. Sebra,

2003 ME 97, ~~ 12, 13,829 A.2d 520,524.

10

an easement in gross (i.e., a personal easement) and an easement appurtenant. Wentworth v.

Sebra, 2003 ME 97, ~~ 12, 13,829 A.2d 520,524. In particular, the agreement provided that the

right of way could be used by the "[Sanborns' and Riccardo's'] immediate families, for delivery

purposes or persons occupying said land of Sanborn and Riccardo under a written lease." In the

Court's view, consistent with the only expert testimony presented at trial, this language plainly

creates an interest that benefitted the Coopersmith property and the Tourmaline property and was

not, as Plaintiff argues, an interest granted only to Philip Sanborn, Nathan Sanborn and Catherine

Riccardo.

Plaintiff also argues that in the event the Court determines that the parties entered into a

binding agreement in June 1978, the agreement is terminated because Defendants abused the

easement. In support of its contention, Plaintiff cites the term of the June 1978 agreement that

provides, "[a]ny abuse of the access given hereunder by Sanborn [Defendants' predecessor] or

Riccardo shall terminate and cancel this Agreement with respect to the party abusing said

access.]" Plaintiff asserts that Defendants abused the easement because either Defendants or

those performing work for Defendants parked in or used portions of the parking area that were

beyond the scope of Defendants' rights of access.

Plaintiff's argument is unpersuasive. Plaintiff presented photographs that depicted the

temporary use in May 2013 of portions of the parking area by contractors or others who were

arguably Defendants' agents. Even if Plaintiff were to prove that Defendants were responsible

for some or all of the use of the parking lot as depicted on the photographs, Plaintiff has not

established sufficient grounds to terminate the agreement. The agreement does not permit

termination in the event of isolated, limited, use that might extend beyond the use contemplated

11

by the agreement. The fact that the conduct occurred well before the tourist season began in

earnest further convinces the Court that the alleged conduct does not constitute abuse.

B. Prescriptive Easement/Implied Easement

Defendants alternatively maintain that they acquired an easement by prescription over the

Testa property. "[T]he party asserting an easement by prescription must prove continuous use

for at least 20 years under a claim of right adverse to the owner, with his knowledge and

acquiescence, or a use so open, notorious, visible, and uninterrupted that knowledge and

acquiescence will be presumed." Town of Manchester v. Augusta Country Club, 477 A.2d 1124,

1130 (Me. 1984) (citation omitted). Acquiescence implies "passive assent or submission to the

use, as distinguished from the granting of a license or permission given with the intention that

the licensee's use may continue only as long as the owner continues to consent to it." Pace v.

Carter, 398 A.2d 505,507 (Me. 1978).

As explained earlier, the Court believes that Defendants' predecessors-in-title had a right

of way, which they exercised until resolution of the Lawsuit, which they initiated after Plaintiff's

predecessor-in-title decided to expand the parking area and construct a concrete wall. Even if the

Court found that the June 1978 agreement did not bind the parties, Defendants have

demonstrated the existence of a prescriptive easement, by which Defendants would continue to

access their property. The evidence at trial overwhelmingly established that for more than 20

years before the Lawsuit, and for the years after the Lawsuit until the dispute that resulted in this

action, Defendants' predecessors-in-title, delivery companies, and individuals regularly,

consistently, and without objection from Plaintiff's predecessors-in-title, accessed the

Coopersmith and Tourmaline properties over the Testa property. The Court concludes,

therefore, that even if Defendants had not persuaded the Court that the June 1978 agreement was

12

valid and binding upon the parties, Defendants would have an easement by prescription over the

Testa property .10

C. Nuisance

In their counterclaim, Defendants assert claims of nuisance and unreasonable interference

with easement rights. To prevail on their common law nuisance claim, Defendants must

establish that "(1) the [counterclaim] defendant acted with the intent of interfering with the use

and enjoyment of the land by those entitled to that use; (2) there was some interference with the

use and enjoyment of the land of the kind intended, although the amount and extent of that

interference may not have been anticipated or intended; (3) the interference that resulted and the

physical harm, if any, from that interference proved to be substantial ... The substantial

interference requirement is to satisfy the need for a showing that the land is reduced in value

because of the defendant's conduct; and (4) the interference that came about under such

circumstances was of such a nature, duration or amount as to constitute unreasonable

interference with the use and enjoyment of the land." Charlton v. Town of Oxford, 2001 ME

104,' 36,774 A.2d 366, 377.

Here, while Defendants introduced evidence that on occasion one of Plaintiff's

employees parked in an area that interfered with Defendants' ability to access their property, the

Court is not convinced that Plaintiff's employee acted at the direction of the Plaintiff in an effort

to interfere with Defendants' access. In addition, Defendants have not proven by competent,

reliable evidence that they have suffered monetary damages, including a diminution in value of

10

Defendants also assert that they have access to their properties over the Testa property by virtue of an implied

easement. While the Court believes that Defendants and their predecessors-in-title have had access over the Testa

property for a sufficient period of time and under circumstances to establish an easement by prescription, the Court

is not convinced that at the time that the common owner of the properties divided the properties, the use was such

that "it is reasonable to infer that the parties to the conveyance intended that the use continue." McGeechan v.

Sherwood, 2000 ME 188, ~57, 760 A.2d 1068, 1080. The Court, therefore, determines that Defendants do not have

an implied easement over Plaintiff's property.

13

Defendants' property, as the result of Plaintiff's interference with Defendants' access.

Defendants, therefore, cannot prevail on their nuisance claim. For the same reasons, Defendants

cannot prevail on their claim of unreasonable interference with their easement rights.

CONCLUSION

Based on the foregoing analysis, the Court orders:

1. On the parties' request for declaratory judgment, the Court determines that the June

1978 agreement grants an appurtenant easement from Main Street over the Testa property to the

rear of the Cooopersmith property and the Tourmaline property, which easement is for the

benefit of the Coopersmith property and the Tourmaline property. The Court also determines

that Defendants acquired an easement by prescription over the Testa property, which easement is

for the benefit of the Coopersmith property and the Tourmaline property. The Court further

determines that Defendants do not have an implied easement over the Testa property.

2. On Counts II and III of Defendants' Counterclaim, the Court enters judgment in favor

of Plaintiff and against Defendants.

Pursuant to M.R. Civ. P. 79(a), the Clerk shall incorporate this Decision and Judgment

into the docket by reference.
