A quick definition of public servitude:

Public servitude is when someone has a right to use a piece of land or property without owning it. This can include things like easements, licenses, and covenants. It can also refer to the right of the public to use certain land, like a highway or a river. In some cases, a person may be forced to work for someone else, which is called involuntary servitude.

A more thorough explanation:

Public servitude is a type of legal limitation on the use of property that benefits the general public or a particular group of people. It can be an encumbrance on an estate or a charge on land for another's benefit. Examples of public servitudes include:

  • The right of the public to use a highway over privately owned land
  • The right to navigate a river the bed of which belongs to some private person
  • Restrictions on certain uses of the shores of navigable rivers
  • The obligation of an owner to provide a passage to an enclosed estate

These examples illustrate how public servitudes are limitations on the use of property that benefit the public or a particular group of people. They are imposed by law and cannot be ignored by property owners.
