Description
The 2023-24 Supreme Court term has been another one of significance in the world of property rights. In particular, two unanimous cases directly addressed takings: Sheetz v. County of El Dorado, 601 U.S. __ (2024) (holding that the Fifth Amendment’s takings clause does not distinguish between legislative and administrative land-use permit conditions) and DeVillier v. Texas, 601 U.S. __ (2024) (holding that property owners adversely affected by a flood evacuation barrier should be permitted on remand to pursue their takings clause claims through the cause of action available under Texas law).
