Knight v. Enbridge Pipelines (FSP) LLC

Dist. Ct. did not err in dismissing plaintiffs-landowners’ action seeking to quiet title on 1952 easement given to defendants to construct second underground pipeline across plaintiffs’ property. Instant easement granted defendants right to build second pipeline within 10 feet of first pipeline, and Ct. rejected plaintiff’s claims that said right had expired or that Rule Against Perpetuities applied to instant easement. Ct also rejected as speculative plaintiffs’ claim that proposed pipeline would be incompatible with existing surface farming.
