The conference benefited land use, zoning or real estate lawyers, particularly those who may be involved in an eminent domain dispute; appraisers; property valuation consultants; constitutional law enthusiasts; and municipal/local government lawyers.
During “When the SWAT Team Comes (No) Knocking: Police Power Takings” at 9:00 a.m. CT on February 3rd, Steve’s panel discussed the history and policy issues concerning takings claims that arise from police activity—especially where property is damaged or destroyed during a police operation. The panel then examined cases which addressed the issues and the implications those cases have for eminent domain/takings jurisprudence.
