are you ready to receive counsel you may do so states government and wetlands reserve program it was dated and under their program farming is no longer permitted honeymoon however is as well as just we're just walking around on the property enjoying the the area that they grow whatever and for butterflies you can do anything but you cannot build on it you cannot run a commercial enterprise the conveyance of the government put it in the wetland reserve program the property was sold to h and r the plaintiff in this case and they acquired for the purpose of hunting and they hunted bond property so they changed that was farm access require me to quit to get to this property from the township road farm tenants would drive over the syrian property for planting or crop harvesting the crop that has changed by reason the fact that it's in the government program and by reason of the fact that now honey is the use of private counsel let me ask you a question the back up a little bit yes your original premise was that this was only used for farming yes and so i would wonder what impact as the representation by stuart insular regarding is sometimes use of a property what effect does that have on your argument that he talked about occasionally engaging in play shooting on the property yes clay shooting of course not hunt understand that  that the use of this property was farm purposes and that was why this grassy lane was necessary to get the farm equipment back to the property there was testimony is that other ways that you whatever you want you know that the trial court said that this easement was for access but not for farm and therefore it did not make any difference that the use change from farming  but the decision in both of those cases would have been just the opposite because both of those cases involve access one was access for water and underground pipes the other was access for vehicles for fishing from using it for access for recreational activities to using it to access for commercial purposes right and so i'm wondering in our case here given that we're talking about going from using it for farming bringing heavy farm equipment and all that goes along with that in across the easement persons noncommercial hunting hunters walking over but they're going to be walking in with firearms they're going to be walking in the quick kill and that is just traditionally i think something that is unique to the owner of the property to consent  be a heavy truck this driving over it's the berm commune measured in other risks that are involved other than just simply the size of the bill or what about a station are designates the aud his pastoral in nature it's a it's a it's a quiet enterprise right very little risk so is birdwatching there's not a lot of risk you have basically people with binoculars that's a lot different than farming so now you're you're the burden is your clients are focusing on the two holes that get heavy use to do the i think that when it comes to the burden that is a significant the change of abuse i think that that is a change use of you have bird watching that's a different use and if you strictly construe the use that that that would be prohibited because that was not would gave rise to push crypted use in the first place which is farm i mean where do you draw the line although one line might be drawn by an argument bed i don't know what was pain hundred that that there but let's say for example this is an area where there are deer an awful lot of farmers think that it's a good conservation practice to thin deer here it's because of the damage to farmland and because it keeps the deer healthier because those and i'm not one hun i'm i'm thinking about what i've read to to thin out the herd to get so that the animals that are older are going to die from freezing or they're not as healthy those are the animals that are moral or likely to fall prey to the higher and that's good land use management conservation and keeps farmers crops from being damaged ship that there are going to be no crops it was dear i could make the someone can make the argument this is a good conservation and it's good for the farmer because it decreases the size of the deer herd which reduces it otherwise it would reduce consenting to a prescriptive easement basically is i think should be strictly construed should be frankly interpreted because there's no consideration forward there's no consent to it and therefore it should be narrowly interpreted for whatever use it was acquired by or it was earned whatever term you want to use you know that the elements are twenty years of repeated open torrijos use of it would you be able to make the same argument if if the vehicles that were access say if there i don't even know what i don't know what tractors  first it's gasoline and then it's diesel and one is noisier than the other and i know people talk about diesel being polluting it would be the same use but the instrument that the instruments being used to access would be a burden on the land the soil and i don't think you can get anywhere with distinguishing whether that's gasoline or diesel drip it's a farm a piece of farm equipment but i can't stand to e it wasn't noisy now it's noisy because of of the kind of equipment that's going on these would do with your client be able to say well for years we didn't even hear it and now we hear it all the time i think you could probably argue that that was a burden but it's it's a slim ok slim argument i think i think the honeymoon is a clear because it's a license it's a regulated hunters are it's a risky it's a risky operation it's inherently risky and inherently i think a land hunted they're going to be put in a position your fine is going to be put in a position where people are hunting on their land now in putting them at risk of being you know subject to firearms being used on their night they're not permitted to hunt on the s book if it's an easing of access you could do anything with the dollar problem the result and limestone in argo would have been totally different because they would have allowed the koreans they would have allowed the twenty four  pieces of paper saw try to keep this is something was possible we contend the judge lewis enter a well reasoned opinion and order and those should be affirmed in the i think it's particularly noteworthy if you look at the reply brief of the defendants defendant say the defendants are not asking for review the truck court finding that a prescriptive easement had been created the only real he's issues are whether the easement was abandoned or whether the proposed use was in excess of the prescriptive right creek writing jeeps motorcycles or wheelers so it isn't exclusively for farming purposes the prior use of this particular ease is very much the same as what my client would like to use it for with the exception they're not going to be any combine they're not going to be any grain trucks coming out of the property  standard trucks being used following grain presently so we would contend that the post used by the plaintiff it's not going to be as in proof of as a prior use for farming hundred acres would have had a larger pool of them like that particularly in the m and a lot of noise and a lot of size otherwise the same time is going to be you tractors this and primarily a pick up truck quite frankly my clients primary use of the slain will be with pickup truck moons miss but you're saying that's not him he has work to consider right well i don't think there's any history as to how the whole arrangement started  and i think that the people who knew the original relationship well pines and a bob now are opposed to cease the time of trial so i think judge lewis had it no intention there's no document there's no testimony to show that anybody intended on abandoning the the same arguments presented by the defendant to the sport were presided over five times judge lewis and different equipment so that they could farm the ground it was abandoned when they put the property into the government program there is one case a side dish novel case involved in the right of way which they wrote went to
