Question about Property Easements

Alex T.
  • Philadelphia, PA
Posted

I own property A, and I have two identical alleyways, one on each side of my property that lead into the backyard of property B. There currently exists an easement between property A and property B which says that property B is allowed to use the alleyway on the right side of my property for legal egress to property B. Here's my question...

I'm doing work to the property, and I need to change the easement to instead allow property B to use the alleyway on the left side of my property. The owner of property B has the exact same distance to walk, the same conditions, etc - everything is identical except now I want him to walk on the left side of my property versus on the right.

The owner of property B doesn't want the agreement changed and has hired a lawyer to restrain the work that I am doing. If we put this easement in front of a judge, how do you think the judge will rule?
