Supreme Court of the United States

DeVillier v. Texas

April 16, 2024601 U.S. 285

Summary

The Supreme Court held that petitioners may pursue their Takings Clause claims through the Texas state-law inverse‑condemnation cause of action, vacating the Fifth Circuit’s judgment and remanding for further proceedings. The Court declined to decide whether the Takings Clause itself creates a cause of action because Texas already provides one.
