Abstract
Outer measures are used to obtain measures that are maximal with respect to
a normal lattice. Alternate proofs are then given extending the measure theoretic
characterizations of a normal lattice to an arbitrary, non-negative finitely additive
measure on the algebra generated by the lattice. Finally these general results are
used to consider σ-smooth measures with respect to the lattice when further conditions
on the lattice hold.
