There are many reasons your neighbor might have an easement over one or more roads on your property. Once that easement has vested (he owns it), he has no particular obligation to exercise it, but must protect it from being revoked by others.
However, in many cases the neighbor is completely mistaken that he has any property right in the easement at all, having once used the roads with the owner's permission, and that license was simply terminated.
Question whether the neighbor would have any proof of ownership of the easement, if you were to file a lawsuit to quiet title.
What else can I help you with?
Our house was built 2.5 years ago and our neighbor's house was done 2 years ago About 1 year ago our neighbors had a survey done and found out their driveway goes through our property What do we do?
There is a range of possibilities, depending on how long you plan to stay and whether or not you want to be friendly with your neighbors: * You can sell them the land under the driveway, which could also allow them to tear out the driveway and put in something worse, * sell them an easement to use that part of your property to cross your land, which also means it can be used as a driveway forever, * license this particular owner to use the driveway (or the driveway easement) either annually, or until they sell the house or remove the driveway, * ask them to move their driveway, or * sue them for trespass and force them to move the driveway. Whatever you do, put it into writing and have a local real estate attorney review it for you. If you completely ignore the problem, it will not go away, and the longer you wait, the more rights the neighbors may have (laches, estoppel, easement by prescription, adverse possession).

How could a wife own property based on the Napoleonic Code?
Under the Napoleonic Code, a wife could own property primarily through the legal framework established for community property or separate property regimes. In a community property arrangement, both spouses jointly owned assets acquired during the marriage, but the wife could also retain ownership of her personal property brought into the marriage. Furthermore, a woman could independently acquire property through inheritance or gifts, making it her separate estate. Legal reforms over time have further expanded women's rights to property ownership, but these foundational principles were significant in the early application of the Napoleonic Code.

Can a landlocked neighbor obtain an easement through my property even though it does not exist on the parcel map mine was purchased prior to his?
First of all, I assume when you say "it does not exist on the parcel map" you mean "an easement does not exist on the parcel map." In most states, your neighbor could sue you for an "easement of necessity" across your property. Generally an easement of necessity requires that your properties have a common grantor (i.e. they were both owned by the same person at one time and subdivided by that person). A real estate attorney in your area will know your state's laws and can give you guidance with your specific situation.

You cannot give yourself an easement over property that you yourself own unless you are simultaneously selling the part of the property with the easement on it to someone else, and that buyer agrees to the easement. Otherwise, you already own the property, so the law already recognizes you as the total owner, i.e. you don't need an easement over land you already own.

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 you have a sewer line that goes through the neighbors property with no established easement and it's been there for 40yrs does the neighbor have the legal right to cut off my sewer if he so pleases?
If the sewer line has existed for that length of time - then with, or without, a "legal" easement you may have gained an easement "by adverse possession." By threaening to cut you off, it may be that your neighbor may be trying to get some money from you for your easement. However, over and above that, contact your local Health Department. I seriously doubt that your neighbor can legally cut you off from sewer access. I would strongly recommend that you contact an attorney for assistance.

How can I obtain an easement for a water line?
To obtain an easement for a water line, you typically need to negotiate with the property owner where the water line will be installed. This involves reaching an agreement on the terms of the easement, such as the location, size, and maintenance responsibilities. Once an agreement is reached, it is usually formalized through a legal document, such as a written easement agreement or a deed. It is important to consult with a real estate attorney to ensure that the easement is properly documented and legally binding.
