Annual Survey of Virginia Law: Property Law

This article surveys judicial and legislative developments in Virginia property law since the last Survey article on this topic was published, with primary emphasis on developments from June 1, 1998 to June 1, 2000. Although there were interesting developments in several areas of property law, the most important developments arose in the Supreme Court of Virginia's decisions involving covenants, servitudes, and easements. A significant portion of this article will explain and analyze those decisions.
