P.R. Laws tit. 31, § 1731
The owner of a tenement or property surrounded by others belonging to several owners, and having no exit to the public highways, has the right to demand the right of way through the neighboring tenements on paying the proper indemnity.
If this servitude be established in such a manner that its use may be continuous for all the requirements of the dominant tenement establishing a permanent passage, the indemnity shall include the value of the land occupied and the amount of damage caused to the servient tenement.
When it is limited to the passage required for the cultivation of the tenement surrounded by others, and for the transportation of its crops through the servient tenement without a permanent passage, the indemnity shall consist in the payment of the damage caused by the said encumbrance.
