Good crowd.
Here are the cases and other materials we spoke about on Friday at the 22d Annual Texas Eminent Domain Conference, in Austin. A big thank you to the Planning Chairs and to our friends at CLE International for the speaking invite.
- Sackett v. EPA (SCOTUS and WOTUS)
- Wilkins v. United States (Federal Quiet Title statute of limitations)
- Tyler v. Hennepin County (Takings, Excessive Fines - Home Equity Theft)
- Eychaner - the near-miss on revisiting Kelo
- Louisiana's successful (!) necessity challenge
- Self-executing Just Compensation: First Circuit (it is self-executing) vs Ninth Circuit (it isn't); see also Devillier v. Texas (pending)
- Property in the non-takings context: K-9 putting his paws on car is a "search" because...trespass to chattels
The other cases discussed are in your materials!
The nearby Caldwell County Courthouse. A classic.
Why did no one tell me that Jabba's Palace is in Austin?
