Supreme Court of the United States

Coy A. Koontz, Jr., Petitioner v. St. Johns River Water Management District.

June 25, 2013133 S. Ct. 2586

Summary

The Supreme Court held that the standards from Nollan v. California Coastal Commission and Dolan v. City of Tigard apply to land-use permit conditions even when the government denies the permit rather than approving it on condition, and even when the condition demands money rather than an interest in real property. The Court reversed the Florida Supreme Court's judgment, which had distinguished those precedents on both grounds.
