Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

Section 4 calls the land benefited by the easement the dominant heritage, and its owner or occupier the dominant owner. The land bearing the burden is the servient heritage. A profit-a-prendre describes a right to take something from another’s land rather than the name of the benefited land.

Current law: The statutory terminology in section 4 remains unchanged.
