Article 622. Continuous nonapparent

easements, and discontinuous ones, whether

apparent or not, may be acquired only by virtue

of a title. (539)

Article 624. The existence of an apparent sign

of easement between two estates, established

or maintained by the owner of both, shall be

considered, should either of them be alienated,

as a title in order that the easement may

continue actively and passively, unless, at the

time the ownership of the two estates is

divided, the contrary should be provided in the

title of conveyance of either of them, or the sign

aforesaid should be removed before the

execution of the deed. This provision shall also

apply in case of the division of a thing owned in

common by two or more persons.
