Which of the following is a charge on a servient estate for the benefit of a dominant estate?

A personal servitude represents a charge on a servient estate that is established for the benefit of a dominant estate.

This kind of arrangement is crucial in clarifying that the servient estate bears an obligation or encumbrance that serves the needs of the dominant estate.

In the context of servitudes, personal servitudes can include rights such as usufruct, where one individual has the right to use and enjoy the benefits of another's property without owning it.
