Found. for the Pres. of Historic Georgetown v. Arnold, 651 A.2d

About This Legal Opinion

The appellate court held that the dormer was not an 'extension' under the terms of the easement because it did not extend the four corners -- the footprint or envelope -- of the house. The patio awning was likewise not an "extension" because it was removable and was only used seasonally.
