Explanation of Article 715

Explanation of Article 715

The article indicates that the owner of the servient property may not undertake any action that would affect the use of the easement right or change its status, unless the easement becomes more burdensome for the owner of the servient property or prevents him from carrying out beneficial repairs; in such cases, he may request the transfer of the right to a location where the owner of the dominant property can easily exercise his right as in the old location.

Article 715

If the servient real property is partitioned, the right of easement shall remain valid on each part thereof. However, if the right of easement is not actually being exercised on some of the parts of the servient real property and cannot be exercised on such parts, the owner of each of such parts may demand termination of such right from his part.
