Looks like eminent domain and Hawaii are in the news today. Here’s what we’re reading:
- In “Scalia the Prophet?” Gideon Kanner comments about Justice Scalia’s recent appearance at one of our almas mater, the University of Hawaii law school. Scalia says that Kelo will eventually be overruled (“it will not survive”).
- Lawprof Ilya Somin comments on the same Scalia talk here (“Justice Scalia on Kelo and Korematsu“)
- From Forbes, this editorial about an eminent domain and free speech battle between a North Shore property owner and the City and County of Honolulu: “Woman Criticizes Honolulu Government, Has Her Protest Signs Bulldozed.”
- We’ve written about this case earlier, including this post with the federal court complaint: “New Federal Court Complaint Challenges Honolulu Grabbing Anti-Eminent Domain Signs Under ‘Stored Property’ Ordinance.”
