The utilization of eminent domain has been used to evict individuals to build malls, concentrated housing projects for both the poor and the affluent, and business parks, all of which presumably have higher property tax bases and therefore better serve the community where they are built than the homes that were there previously.
Having recently received a grant award, in the amount of 500,000 from the ACLU, Homeowners' Freedom, a 501 C3 organization dedicated to the assertion of property rights to owners intends to establish a legal defense fund for individuals who have received less than just compensation for property under eminent domain rulings. The fund will be budgeted thusly, 100,000 will be dedicated to the initial research and development that will be required to establish the names of injured parties and to advertise the service and screen potential former property owners. The remaining 400,000 will be set aside as a legal defense fund to assist in the litigation attempting to claim settlements for individuals who have lost properties.
The legal precedence will be applied to both the first and the second constitutional stipulations depending upon the case in question and the legal expertise of the attorneys retained to take on the government. The actions will be both individual and class action, depending on the research and the availability of cases. The service will be limited to lost homes, as apposed to lost businesses. Home owners who are still in the process of fighting eminent domain actions, will be offered limited legal assistance, based on need and funding availability.

The program's success will be determined by the completion of 10 successful settlements within one year. The amount of...

455 U.S. 904 (1982), illustrates one of the scenarios of a taking. The Court did not require a physical intrusion by the government here, but the placement of items was sufficient for a Taking without just compensation. The character and manner of the governmental intrusion is just as important as the intrusion itself. Also, the principle of regulating private property for a public purpose is demonstrated in the Loretto

Likewise, the Institute of Agriculture required a quorum of two-thirds of its members for voting purposes and for the balancing of votes according to the size of the budgetary contributions (Bowett, 1970).
