Plaintiff’s Motion

Plaintiff asks the Court to grant judgment in its favor as to liability only. Specifically,
Plaintiff asks the Court to find that Woodside and the Association breached the easement and the
implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and committed a trespass. The Court concludes
issues of fact preclude the entry of judgment in Plaintiff’s favor.

This matter arises from a dispute over an easement. Plaintiff purchased an access easement
over a neighboring parcel. The grantor later sold the servient property to a developer, Woodside.
Woodside discovered the easement and attempted to have it removed. Woodside was unsuccessful
and proceeded with developing the property into a planned community. Woodside later transferred
the servient property to the Association. The area of the servient property that Plaintiff claims
under the easement has been developed as a retention basin for the planned residential community.

Analysis

According to the Commercial Reciprocal Access Easement and Non Barrier Agreement
(“Agreement”), Plaintiff and the Presbytery of Grand Canyon (“Church) agreed to grant each other
reciprocal easements for ingress and egress on certain terms and conditions (“Easement”). Those
terms included: “Subject to Section 3, below, . . . a nonexclusive perpetual easement for vehicular
and pedestrian ingress and egress on, over and across any access drives, driveways or drive arises
from time to time located on that portion of the [Church property] shown on the Site Plan attached
hereto as Exhibit C “Presbytery Drive Area.” The Drive Area contained approximately 4,767
square feet of land. The Site Plan was not attached to the Agreement that was recorded.

Section 3 of the Easement includes the following: “[a]s a condition to either party using
the easements set forth in Section 1 and Section 2 above, Campbell shall cause the following
improvements to be made to the Presbytery Drive Area, together with the construction of the
following wall adjacent to the Presbytery Drive, together with the delivery of certain following
utilities. . .” In summary, Plaintiff was required to install new paving, curb, and landscaping.
Additionally, Plaintiff was required to install a screen wall and an electronic gate. Plaintiff was
also required to pay for the related electrical service. Plaintiff did not cause any of the
improvements above to be made. The Court finds this fact to be fatal to Plaintiff’s Motion.

Plaintiff asserts that it was prevented from performing the condition set forth in Section 3
of the Easement. Plaintiff has not set forth facts to establish that it was prevented from performing.
Plaintiff merely cites to cases discussing the doctrine of prevention and the testimony of Plaintiff’s
principal that by the time Plaintiff had a tenant and was ready to improve the drive area, it was too
late because Woodside had already developed over it. But Plaintiff presents no evidence that it
was prevented from doing so or even that it tried to do so. As noted in Sec. Nat. Life Ins. Co. v.

SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY

CV 2019-052924

Docket Code 926
Form V000A
Page 3

Pre-Need Camelback Plan, Inc., 19 Ariz. App. 580, 582 (App. 1973), the general rule is that if one
prevents fulfillment of a condition precedent one cannot thereafter rely on such failure of the
condition to defeat the agreement. Here, the factual issue remains that Plaintiff has not established
that Defendants prevented Plaintiff from performing the improvements. There is no question that
the evidence supports a conclusion that the servient property was developed over the ten plus years
since the Easement was entered. The Easement expressly contemplated that the surface and sub-
surface drainage/retention systems would traverse across the Church property. At this point, a
drainage/retention system traverses the property. The Easement further expressly contemplated
that the general improvements that Plaintiff was required to make “shall take into account and not
impair such systems.”

Paragraph 4 of the Easement gives Plaintiff the right to determine when to make the
improvements, but the Easement does not become effective until they are made. The Easement
therefore remained only conditional as of the time Woodside built its improvements, and so at that
time Woodside did nothing wrong. Woodside remains obligated to allow Plaintiff to build the
required items and thereby activate the Easement. The question of who will have to pay for any
increased expense brought by Woodside’s construction is not raised in this motion.

Simply, Plaintiff has not carried its burden because it has not established that it is prevented
from making the improvements contemplated either because Defendants built over the Easement
or because Defendants have refused to allow Plaintiff to make the improvements. For this reason
alone, the Court concludes that Plaintiff’s Motion must fail.

IT IS ORDERED denying Plaintiff’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment (Liability)
filed January 9, 2020.

Woodside’s Motion

Woodside asks the Court to grant summary judgment in its favor for three reasons: 1) the
Easement is void and unenforceable against Woodside; 2) Plaintiff has no contract with Woodside;
and 3) Woodside cannot be liable for trespass.

Enforceability

The record presented to the Court confirms that Woodside had actual notice of the
Easement. See Onekama Realty Co. v. Carothers, 59 Ariz. 416, 424 (1942) (“the only purpose of
recording is to give constructive notice, and constructive notice is never required when actual is
had”). The record also establishes that Exhibit B to the Easement described the burdened servient
property which is what is required for a valid Easement. See Restatement (Third) of Property
(Servitudes) § 2.7, cmt. f. To the extent Woodside’s request is based on a claim that the reciprocal

SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY

CV 2019-052924

07/05/2020

Docket Code 926
Form V000A
Page 4

right is uncertain, that is not a basis to conclude that the Easement is unenforceable to the extent
that the servient property was described – which it was in this case. See Exhibit A to Easement.
Because the Easement was not one of necessity, the existence of alternate access is immaterial.

Woodside has not established as a matter of law that the Easement is void or unenforceable.

Contract

There is no question that Woodside is no longer the owner of the property. Woodside was
the owner of the property after the Easement was granted and while it was developed. To the
extent that the Court finds the Easement to be enforceable, it can be enforced as a contract between
land owners. See Ellerman v. Snyder, 2013 WL 636728, at *23 (App. Feb. 21, 2013).

Trespass

A trespass is an invasion of another's property right. 74 C.J.S. Trespass § 1 (2013). In order
to establish a claim of trespass against another, the claimant must possess a legal interest in the
land against which the trespass is alleged. See, e.g., Restatement (Second) of Torts § 161 cmt. b
(1965) (“The actor's failure to remove from land in the possession of another a structure, chattel,
or other thing which he has tortiously erected or placed on the land constitutes a continuing trespass
....”) (emphasis added); Mountain States Tel. & Tel. Co. v. Kelton, 79 Ariz. 126, 134-135 (1955)
(defendant's interference with plaintiff's express easement over defendant's property amounted to
trespass). Here, as outlined above, as a condition to Plaintiff using the Easement, Plaintiff was
required to make certain improvements. If Plaintiff had no present right to use the Easement then
Woodside cannot be deemed to have trespassed. Whether or not Plaintiff was prevented from
making the improvements as a result of Woodside’s actions remains a question of fact.

IT IS ORDERED denying Woodside’s Cross Motion for Summary Judgment.

UNDER ADVISEMENT RULING
Defendant Encore at Sunset Ranch Community Association’s (Association) Motion for
Summary Judgment filed May 29, 2020 - Denied

The Court has received and considered the following:

1. Defendant Encore at Sunset Ranch Community Association’s (Association) Motion for
Summary Judgment filed May 29, 2020 and the associated Statement of Facts;
2. Plaintiff’s Response and Response to Statement of Facts;
3. The Association’s Reply.
Defendant requested oral argument but the Court concludes that oral argument will not
assist the Court with determining the issues presented.

The Association asks the Court to grant judgment in its favor as to all of Plaintiff’s claims.
Plaintiff seeks a declaration from the Court that the easement is valid as to the Association.
Plaintiff further alleges a breach of contract and trespass claim against the Association.
Specifically, Plaintiff asks the Court to find that the Association breached the easement and the
implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing and committed a trespass by continuing to maintain

the property in a way that interferes with the easement. The Court concludes issues of fact and
law preclude the entry of judgment in Defendant’s favor.

This matter arises from a dispute over an easement. Plaintiff purchased an access easement
over a neighboring parcel. The grantor later sold the servient property to a developer, Woodside.
Woodside discovered the easement and attempted to have it removed. Woodside was unsuccessful
and proceeded with developing the property into a planned community. Woodside later transferred
the servient property to the Association. The area of the servient property that Plaintiff claims
under the easement has been developed as a retention basin for the planned residential community.

Standard

The party moving for summary judgment must produce evidence that it believes
demonstrates the absence of a genuine issue of material fact and must explain why summary
judgment is warranted. Nat'l Bank of Ariz. v. Thruston, 218 Ariz. 112, 115 (App. 2008.) If the
nonmoving party has the burden of proof of the claim or defense at trial, the moving party need
not disprove the nonmoving party's claim or defense, but need only point out the lack of evidence
on an essential element of the claim or defense. Thruston, 218 Ariz. at 117. If the moving party
meets its burden, the burden shifts to the nonmoving party to present sufficient evidence
demonstrating the existence of a disputed fact. Thruston, 218 Ariz. at 119. The nonmoving party
cannot then rest on its pleadings, but must call to the court's attention evidence to explain why the
motion should be denied. Id. “If the party with the burden of proof on the claim or defense cannot
respond to the motion by showing that there is evidence creating a genuine issue of fact on the
element in question, then the motion for summary judgment should be granted.” Orme Sch. v.
Reeves, 166 Ariz. 301, 310 (1990).

Analysis

Both parties incorporated prior filings in support of their respective positions. The Court
discourages such practice for at least two reasons: 1) incorporating prior briefing effectively grants
a page limit extension without approval from the Court; and 2) the Court is required to guess as to
which of the portions of the prior filings should be considered and why. Regardless, the Court has
considered the incorporated documents in evaluating the Motion, Response, and Reply.

Notice

The record presented to the Court confirms, at a minimum, that the Association had record
notice of the Easement. The Commercial Reciprocal Access Easement and Non Barrier
Agreement (Easement) was recorded on July 2, 2007. The recorded Easement contains a legal
description of the entire Presbytery Property (property purchased by Woodside and transferred to

SUPERIOR COURT OF ARIZONA
MARICOPA COUNTY

CV 2019-052924

09/21/2020

Docket Code 926
Form V000A
Page 3

the Association). Exhibit B to the Easement described the burdened servient property which is
what is required for a valid Easement. See Restatement (Third) of Property (Servitudes) § 2.7,
cmt. f. Additionally, the record reflects Woodside had actual notice and the Association had actual
notice to the extent the Association itself admits that Woodside controlled the Association and all
decision-making for the Association. Even if it did not have actual notice, the Association was on
inquiry notice based on the public records.

The Association relies on Dunlap Investors Ltd. v. Hogan, 133 Ariz. 130, 132 (1982) to
assert that the easement is defective because the recorded document failed to attach a description
of the “Presbytery Drive Area.” Dunlap Investors is distinguishable, however, because the
servient estate was not identified with reasonable certainty. As the court noted, “[i]t might be
different if the deed had contained a legal description of the servient property. This might put a
person searching the record on notice as to the property to be burdened. Id. Here, the recorded
instrument contained a legal description of the servient property and that served to put the
Association on notice as to the property to be burdened. Defendant has not presented evidence
that a surveyor could not go upon the land and locate the easement.

The Association has not established as a matter of law that the Easement is void or
unenforceable as against it.
Contract

There is no question that the Association is the current the owner of the property. Plaintiff
alleged the Association is maintaining the retention basin resulting in a continuing trespass. The
Association does not dispute maintaining the retention basin alleged to interfere with the
Easement. To the extent that the Court finds the Easement to be enforceable, it can be enforced as
a contract between landowners. See Ellerman v. Snyder, 2013 WL 636728, at *23 (App. Feb. 21,
2013).
Trespass

The Association asserts that Plaintiff’s trespass claim is barred by the two-year statute of
limitations. See A.R.S. § 12-542(l); Cheatham v. Sahuaro Collection Service, Inc., 118 Ariz. 452
(App. 1978). Plaintiff asserts that the trespass is continuing. See Garcia v. Sumrall, 58 Ariz. 526
(1942). There is no dispute that the Association did not make the improvements to the property
allegedly subject to the Easement. Plaintiff claims instead that the Association has continued to
maintain the improvements that prevent Plaintiff’s enjoyment of the property. Defendants present
no facts to the contrary. To the extent the trespass is continuing (which the Association does not
address in the Motion), the Court concludes the two-year statute of limitations does not bar
Plaintiff’s claim.
