What we're reading today:
- Our ABA State and Local Government Law Section colleague Robert Foster has been confirmed (is that the correct terminology in Mass?) as an Associate Justice of the Massachusetts Land Court.
- From another SLG colleague, Amy Lavine, comes this interesting post on her Ferae Naturae blog, about stream access laws. She focuses on NY and Montana, but there is good information in her post for those located elsewhere.
- From the NY Times comes "Eminent Domain Fight Has a Canadian Twist," about a Canadian pipeline company's efforts to take land in the United States. Will the company's status as a Canadian entity be critical? Calling Tim Hortons...
- From the Abbott & Kindermann Land Use Law Blog: "Court Recognizes That A Property Owner May Be Able To Wield A 'Sword' To Establish A Right To Maintain An Encroachment On Neighboring Property."
- Check out the comments (especially) at Legal Planet's post on "Time to Put Nino Out to Pasture," about Justice Scalia's statement that Kelo was as big a boner as Dred Scott.
- The Marzulla Law Firm writes "Ninth Circuit Affirms Validity of Fifth Amendment Claim In Guam Takings Case." Check it out. Some good pointers about the relationship between the U.S. District Courts and the Court of Federal Claims.
- The Farm Futures blog writes about the Sackett v. EPA case.
