Probably not, unless the circumstances of the creation of the easement were very unusual. You should give full details to an attorney for review, and consult the attorney on how to proceed.

Re: easement rights
There are no standard answers for easement issues. Easement rights are very fact dependent and involve the history of use and ownership of both properties, as well as recorded and unrecorded documentary evidence. You need to consult with a real estate attorney who will help you determine your options.
