An absolute nuisance is something that bothers people and makes it hard for them to use or enjoy their property. This could be a loud noise or a bad smell that doesn't go away. It can also be something that damages the land or makes it hard to use. Sometimes, people can be held responsible for causing a nuisance, but not always. A nuisance is different from a trespass because a trespass is when someone physically enters someone else's property without permission.
Definition: An absolute nuisance is a condition, activity, or situation that interferes with the use or enjoyment of property. It can be a persistent activity that either injures the physical condition of adjacent land or interferes with its use or with the enjoyment of easements on the land or of public highways. Liability might or might not arise from the condition or situation.
For example, a loud noise or foul odor that affects the use and enjoyment of a property can be considered an absolute nuisance. If a factory emits toxic fumes that harm the health of people living nearby, it can also be considered an absolute nuisance.
These examples illustrate how an absolute nuisance can negatively impact the quality of life of people living in the affected area. It can cause physical harm, discomfort, and inconvenience, and can affect property values.
