Legal TREND. Does a permit requirement equal a taking?

No, nej, nyet! An appellate court in California decided 2 issues against a billionaire landwoner and neither of which is a taking:

  •  requiring a California billionaire to be permitted to provide beach access to a long used surfer spot is not a taking.
    • Why isn’t this a taking? No permit has been applied for yet.
  • an injunction that requires that the surfers have access to the beach is also not a taking.
    • Why isn’t this a taking? because in the injunction is temporary
