Practice question
A servient owner expressly undertook maintenance costs when the voluntary easement was created. The owner keeps the property but simply announces that the undertaking is renounced. Does Article 693 make that announcement alone the specified release?
- Yes, any announcement suffices
- Yes, because ownership always means no duties
- Yes, if written on a sign
- Yes, if no one protests
- No; the provision specifies renunciation of the property to the dominant owner, not mere repudiation of the expense promise
