Eminent Domain To Come Back To Haunt Souter

Wednesday, June 29th, 2005

No doubt just a joke or idle threat based on the recent Supreme Court decision, but it makes a very fine point. I’d love to see it done, hehe.

High Court Expands Reach of Eminent Domain

Thursday, June 23rd, 2005

Ugh:
A divided Supreme Court (search) ruled Thursday that local governments may seize people’s homes and businesses against their will for private development in a decision anxiously awaited in communities where economic growth often is at war with individual property rights.

Wednesday, June 8th, 2005
