Property Easement Rights Violation

Summary

The property owner may have violated easement rights by interfering with your access and harassing you. In Mississippi, such actions can be considered legal violations. You may have the right to take legal action for obstruction of easement. Additionally, if there was a written agreement regarding the transfer of real estate from your father, failure to deliver the deed could be a breach of contract. Oral contracts can be binding but are subject to the Statute of Frauds, which requires certain agreements to be in writing. Consult a local attorney for specific advice.

thank you. I also have another matter for which I have a question
Of course, Devon. I'm here to help. What is your next question?
last year my father and I were in his attorney's office and were sorting out an agreement of fair ownership of some land that belongs to me when he dies but we both decided we would rather have the assets now so we agreed on my having ownership of one piece of real estate and a portion of some land. He got angry with me and we haven't spoken in over 6 months and now I can't get the deed to my house and he has already signed over the deed and given it to his lawyer who has it at his office but then he told his lawyer not to give it to me. How do I go about getting it and what laws or violations is he breaking by withholding this from me?
In Mississippi:
*. If there was a written agreement, failure to deliver the deed could be breach of contract.
*. If the transfer was not in writing, it may not be enforceable under the Statute of Frauds.
*. Consider speaking with an attorney to enforce your rights. They might suggest a lawsuit to compel the delivery or cancel the contract.
what is the statute of frauds
The Statute of Frauds is a legal principle that requires certain types of contracts to be in writing and signed by all parties. It typically applies to contracts involving real estate, goods over a certain value, and agreements that cannot be performed within one year.
what about an oral contract.. that is legally binding, no?
In Mississippi, oral contracts can be legally binding, but there are exceptions. The Statute of Frauds requires certain contracts, including those about real estate, to be in writing. However, if the agreement has been partially acted upon, courts might enforce it. Consult a lawyer for advice.
