The Cato Institute has made note of a case moving into Texas courts. It involves Southern Methodist University, and whether it improperly used eminent domain to seize homes in order to build the George Bush Library.

The case will begin in Dallas District Court Tuesday.

And hope that a NH politician doesn't become President, or else your home could be next! (grin)...

For deeper reading into Eminent Domain, read "Takings", by Richard Epstein. It is a very scholarly work, and highly recommended.
