Can a power utility run distribution lines over my property without an easement agreement?
Generally, no, unless the rights were taken by eminent domain. However, it may have acquired easement rights many years ago. If no easement rights are recited in your deed that does not mean there are no easement rights. Ancient easements are often dropped from property descriptions especially when the current configuration was derived from a much larger tract in the past. Ancient utility easements and takings would be revealed by a comprehensive title examination.
What does full enjoyment of the easement mean?
Full enjoyment of the easement means that the owner of the easement is able to exercise all the benefits of the easement that are described in the document that created the easement.

Are condominiums required to sign easment agreements?
It depends on what you mean by condominiums. It's possible that the condominium project developer who originally owns the land was required to sign an easement agreement. Your local county clerk's office has a copy of the original deed filing for the land which will contain an easement if one was signed and/or required. If you are asking about an individual unit owner's requirement to sign an easement agreement, your association's attorney can give you an opinion.
What is an eastment?
Answer: I assume you mean to say "easement". That is a right one owner has to make use in some way of the land of another. Easements rights are granted in or by deed. Easements are sometimes acquired by operation of law (by necessity).
Encroachment of easement by planting crops on?
"Encroachment" is not the same as "blocking" it. If there is a legal easement codified in the deeds, the width of the easement should probably be spelled out. If the legally described width of the easement is being narrowed or "choked" by the planting of the crops to the point of inconvenience - my suggestion would be discuss it with the farmer who planted them and advise him. Legally established easements grant 'passage of necessity' over, under, or through, a property, but they do not imply or convey any ownership rights upon the property over which the easement passes! And it does not mean the property can't use the land for other purposes, it just means that, when necessary, he is legally required to grant passsage over his property.
If easement is a long drive through 3 neighbors lands who owns?
The land is actually owned by the neighbors. The person having the easement is allowed to use it even though they don't own it (and the owners are not allowed to block that access); that's what an easement is. If you mean "who has to maintain the driveway", that's the responsibility of the person who wants to use it.
What is a private nonexclusive easement?
An "easement" is a legal right to use the property owned by another person (i.e. the person who granted the easement). An easement is usually created by a recorded document, whether a deed or an easement agreement. The purpose of the easement (for example, a driveway or a walking path) is whatever permitted use is stated in the easement document. The fact that the easement is "perpetual" means that the easement has no term and will continue indefinitely. An easement that is "non-exclusive" simply is an easement that someone else may also use. This might mean the person who granted the easement or whoever else may be identified in the easement document. The easement document should state who else may use the easement. A perpetual easement usually "runs with the land", meaning that the easement continues in effect regardless of whether the property benefited by the easement is sold or if the property burdened by the easement is sold.
If you are the land owner of easement can you plant shrubs on easement?
in most cases the answer is yes. you may landscape the area, but that area is subject to be torn up by a utility comany or holder of the easement for a legal purpose such a as pipe repair or utility maintenance, and you cannot sue. But the company is responsible for restoring that area to a natural condition, which may not necessarily be what you have planted. if you know there is an easement, read the document. it should be in your title policy when you purchased the house, or call and speak with your title company However, the answer would depend upon what type of easement you mean; some types cannot be blocked by anything, including shrubbery. For example, a shared driveway (with one person owning the property and the other owning an easement for passing over the property) would not be a good place for shrubs.
