Principles for Seeking Easements Under Sec 88 K Conveyancing Act and Case Studies

You will consider applications for permanent and temporary easements under this legislation, which is spawning an ever-greater jurisprudence in NSW and jurisdictions with cognate legislation (Qld and Tas). Cases considered will include:
- Twelve Walker Street Pty Ltd v Lee [2017] NSWSC 1807
- Katakouzinos v Roufir Pty Ltd [1999] NSWSC 1045
