How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • noting that the court was not foreclosing a later as-applied challenge to a condemnation as a “mere pretext of a public purpose” (quoting Kelo, 545 U.S. at 478)
  • stating that, to have constitutional standing to sue, the plaintiff must have “suffered an injury in fact ‘causally connected to the challenged conduct’ and capable of being remedied through suit.”
  • explaining that the Takings Clause applies to Puerto Rico through the Fourteenth Amendment, too
  • explaining takings that transfer private property to public ownership so property is administered for public good and takings that make property available for public use are categories of “quintessentially legitimate public uses under the Takings Clause”
