Environmental Law & Property Rights Practice Group Podcast

This spring marks the 25th anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court\'s decision in\\xa0Lucas v. South Carolina Coastal Council.\\xa0 In\\xa0Lucas, a 5-4 Court majority held that a state law can effect a "regulatory taking" and trigger inverse condemnation requirements if it deprives an owner of all viable uses of his land.\\xa0 Join our panel to hear a discussion of questions such as: Did\\xa0Lucas\\xa0mark a major change in Supreme Court regulatory takings doctrine? Was the decision about right, or did it go too far or not far enough?\\xa0 Is\\xa0Lucas\\xa0still relevant to regulatory takings law today, and what are the chances that the decision might be reconsidered or extended? \\xa0
