Murch v. Nash
Supreme Judicial Court of Maine
1Opinion of the CourtLevy, J.
[¶ 1] Bonnie Sue Nash appeals from a judgment entered in the Superior Court (Hancock County, Mead, J.) granting Maynard H. Murch injunctive relief and declaring that Nash has no right to use a private right-of-way across Murch’s property on Great Cranberry Island.1 Nash contends, inter alia, that the trial court erred in concluding that she failed to establish (1) a private easement by implication, and (2) an easement by necessity. We conclude that Nash established the existence of a private easement by implication and, to that extent, vacate the judgment.
