An easement can be terminated through agreement of the grantor and grantee, expiration of the allotted time period, abandonment or expressed intent to discontinue use, merger if one person buys both the dominant and servient properties, end of necessity, estoppel if use is stopped and a third party relies on that, prescription if another uses the easement for the statutory time period, or condemnation if the government terminates the easement through eminent domain.
