Podcast Episode 97: Jeffrey Redfern: Baker v. City of McKinney, Texas – Police Power and Eminent Domain

When the state exercises its police power and as a result damages property, is there a constitutional obligation to pay for that damage? Jeffrey Redfern of the Institute for Justice joins to podcast to discuss Baker v. City of McKinney, a case he tried and won in June of this year in the Eastern District of Texas. Jeffrey shares with us how this court arrived at a decision different from the Tenth Circuit in Lech v. Jackson. Practitioners will also find his insights on voir dire invaluable.
