• 2025 OK CIV APP 5

Syllabus

¶1 The Oklahoma Turnpike Authority appeals a judgment in favor of the Peggy Lu Vorel Revocable Trust dated February 18, 2016, entered on a jury verdict in this condemnation case. The dispositive issue is whether the district court correctly construed the allegations in the Authority's petition regarding the scope of the Trust's property taken by the Authority. The district court determined that the description of the property taken included all access from a portion of the Trust's property rather than just access to the limited access turnpike being constructed across the Trust's property. This was error. The judgment is vacated, and this case is remanded for further proceedings consistent with this Opinion. 1
