A must-read for takings mavens. Property rights gurus Professor Gideon Kanner and Michael Berger have published a new article, The Nasty, Brutish, and Short Life of Agins v. Tiburon, 50 Urb. Lawyer 1 (2019). It's the lead article in the latest volume of The Urban Lawyer, the law journal of our Section of the ABA, the Section of State and Local Government Law.
Barista's note: since TUL ended its long-time editorial relationship with UMKC Law School last year, the journal has been published in-house, and we've taken on the role of Editor-in-Chief, in-between our lawyering and teaching day jobs. We recognize the efforts of our ABA editor, as well as our team of volunteer Associate Editors (our fellow lawyers who took on the responsibility of tech editing the pieces) in producing the journal.
Kanner and Berger have written an informative (and entertaining) tour-de-force of modern regulatory takings law. We won't summarize it -- we can't do it justice -- and simply recommend that you read it yourself.
