Syllabus

Oil and gas—Regulatory takings—Court of appeals did not err in finding no total regulatory taking, because private company failed to prove that State's suspension of operations of saltwater-injection wells deprived it of all economically beneficial use of its leasehold—Court of appeals did err in determining that State effected a compensable taking because proper balancing of Penn Cent. Transp. Co. v. New York City factors weighs against finding a partial regulatory taking—Court of appeals' judgment affirmed in part and reversed in part and writ denied.

Judges: DeWine, J.
