In giving a permanent right to cross her property with a driveway, Landowner A is _ and Landowner B is _.

  1. the dominant tenement; the servient tenement

  2. the servient tenement; the dominant tenement

  3. the lessor; the lessee

  4. the grantor; the grantee

The correct answer is: the servient tenement; the dominant tenement

Landowner A is considered the servient tenement because they are providing permission for Landowner B to use their property. Landowner B is considered the dominant tenement because they are the beneficiary of this right and have the right to cross the property. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the relationship between Landowner A and B in this situation.
