Supreme Court of Pennsylvania

Wolfe, G & M, h/w Aplts v. Reading Blue Mtn

August 20, 2024

Summary

The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania reversed the Commonwealth Court and remanded, holding that the railroad's condemnation of the Wolfes' property was not for a public purpose because the public was not the primary and paramount beneficiary, and therefore the trial court’s dismissal of the condemnation action was correct.
