James Marlowe v. SCDOT

Syllabus

We affirm in part and reverse in part the court of appeals' decision in Marlowe v. S.C. Dep't of Transp., 441 S.C. 319, 893 S.E.2d 21 (Ct. App. 2023). We hold (1) the Stormwater Management and Sediment Reduction Act did not immunize SCDOT from liability; and (2) there is not sufficient evidence on the causation issue for the inverse condemnation claim to survive summary judgment.
