Analysis

No analysis yet. When one exists it is a model's reading of this opinion — the rulings it reviewed, whether it agrees with the court, and the authorities it checked — shown beside the court's own disposition, never in place of it. How analyses are made.

Opinion

By the Court:

The taking in this case amounts to a taking of private property for public use in the sense in which that phrase is used in the Constitution, and can only be effected upon the conditions prescribed in the Constitution—that is, upon just compensation being simultaneously made.

Order annulled.
