This authoritative Restatement, which completely supersedes the original Restatement of this subject published in 1944, replaces one of the most complex and archaic bodies of 20th century American law with a clear, comprehensive, rational body of law ideally suited for land use and development in the 21st Century. Simplifying, clarifying, and modernizing the law of covenants, easements, and profits, this long-awaited work provides that servitudes should be interpreted to carry out the intent of the parties and to allow flexibility for adapting to changes over time; removes obstacles to innovative development practices; allows modification and termination of obsolete servitudes; protects conservation and historic-preservation servitudes; and devotes an entire chapter to the law governing residential common-interest communities and associations. Volume 2 is updated by a cumulative annual pocket part containing citations to both volumes of this Restatement and to relevant superseded sections of the original Restatement of Property.
