Who is the beneficiary of an easement in gross?

  1. A property

  2. A person or entity, usually a utility company

  3. The government

  4. The servient estate

The correct answer is: A person or entity, usually a utility company

An easement in gross is a type of easement that grants a specific person or entity the legal right to use another person's land for a specific purpose. The beneficiary, or holder, of an easement in gross is typically a person or entity with a specific need or interest in using the land, such as a utility company needing access to install or maintain utility lines. A is incorrect because a property cannot be a beneficiary, as it does not have the ability to use an easement. C is incorrect because the government can only be the beneficiary if the easement is for public use. D is incorrect because the servient estate is the property that is burdened by the easement, not the beneficiary.
