I few months ago I noted that an Oregon trial judge invalidated Oregon’s Measure 37 unconstitutional under the state’s constitution. The Measure, enacted by referendum, expanded the circumstances under which landowners could seek compensation for Takings when government regulation reduced the value of their property.
Geoff Manne reports that the Oregon Supreme Court has now weighed in and reversed the lower court, holding the Measure to be constitutional.
The opinion is here.
