Defined in 1 dictionary — Anderson (1889)
A Dictionary of Law
William C. Anderson · 1889
One thing may appertain to another without adjoining or touching it. "Proof that pieces of land adjoin would not be proof that one appertained to the other." As a descriptive word in a deed "appertaining" imports use, occupancy; "adjoining" imports contiguity. See Adjoining; Appurtenance.
