A New Takings Clause? The Implications Of Cedar Point Nursery V. Hassid For Property Rights And Moratoria, Benjamin Alexander Mogren
A New Takings Clause? The Implications Of Cedar Point Nursery V. Hassid For Property Rights And Moratoria, Benjamin Alexander Mogren
William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal
In part, the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution holds that “no person . . . shall [have their] private property . . . taken for public use, without just compensation.” In Cedar Point Nursery v. Hassid, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that “a California regulation that permits union organizers to enter the property of agricultural business to talk with employees about supporting a union is unconstitutional.” The purpose of this Note is to discuss what Cedar Point Nursery means generally for the future of Takings Clause analysis and will argue that Cedar Point Nursery should be seen as a …

Evaluating Emergency Takings: Flattening The Economic Curve, Robert H. Thomas
William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal
Desperate times may breed desperate measures, but when do desperate measures undertaken as a response to an emergency trigger the Fifth Amendment’s requirement that the government provides just compensation when it takes private property for public use? The answer to that question has commonly been posed as a choice between the “police power”—a sovereign government’s power to regulate property’s use in order to further the public health, safety, and welfare—and the eminent domain power, the authority to seize private property for public use with the corresponding requirement to pay compensation. But that should not be the question. After all, emergencies …

"Property" In The Constitution: The View From The Third Amendment, Tom W. Bell
"Property" In The Constitution: The View From The Third Amendment, Tom W. Bell
William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal
During World War II, after Japan attacked the Aleutian Islands off Alaska’s coast, the United States forcibly evacuated the islands’ natives and quartered soldiers in private homes. That hitherto unremarked violation of the Third Amendment gives us a fresh perspective on what the term “property” means in the United States Constitution. As a general legal matter, property includes not just real estate—land, fixtures attached thereto, and related rights—but also various kinds of personal property, ranging from tangibles, such as books, to intangibles, such as causes of action. That knowledge would, if we interpreted the Constitution as we do other legal …

A Right Without Remedy: State Employees After Seminole Tribe And Alden, Heather Lueke
A Right Without Remedy: State Employees After Seminole Tribe And Alden, Heather Lueke
William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal
Over the past decade, courts have wrestled with state employees 'private legal remedy for a violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act. As a result of the decisions in Seminole Tribe v. Florida and Alden v. Maine, state employees lost their right to sue for such violations. This note examines the dilemma faced by employees who find themselves without a path of recourse against state employers. It concludes that both Seminole Tribe and Alden should be overturned because the decisions leave state employees with no realistic remedy
Takings And Causation, Jan G. Laitos
Takings And Causation, Jan G. Laitos
William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal
Constitutional protection of private property is grounded in a conflict between two legal principles--the government's power to regulate private property for the common good and the Constitution's limit on this power in the Takings Clause. The Takings Clause's check on government power conforms to John Rawls's philosophy, which rejects the utilitarian beliefs that government may act to achieve* the "good" of maximizing human happiness and that government can force people to trade certain political liberties for an improved distribution of wealth. Under Rawls's theory, the principle of "justice as fairness" limits a government's ability to require some people to bear …
